Spring Break Turns into Service, A Look Back from Team Appalachia
A total of 11 St. John Fisher College students, faculty, and staff traded in their beach towels for an alternative spring break this year, literally. The group partnered with Alternative Spring Breaks, an organization that coordinates service-learning immersion trips for college students, and made the trek to Harlan, Kentucky, in the Appalachian Mountain region.
Students Tricia Blanchard, Sarah Hryzak, Karlee Platts, Mark Prunella-Miller, Dan Przybylski, Aaron Spacher, Tierney Sullivan, and Chloe Warner were joined by Sally Vaughan, Director of Community Service, and faculty members Scott Bryson and Dr. Greg Cunningham for the trip.
Przybylski said when the group first heard of Appalachia, they imagined a broken down town with people that may resemble the hit TV show, "Moonshiners." The group received some much-needed education in the weeks leading up to the trip, watching documentaries to help them prepare for what they would see. They quickly learned that they were about to spend a week in a poverty-stricken mountain wasteland nestled deep in eastern Kentucky.
Harlan, Kentucky sits on the southeast ridge of the Appalachian Mountains, not too far from the Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia borders. Przybylski said the residents' chief source of income is coal mining ? almost everyone who lives there either works or has someone in the family who works in the mines.
In the Appalachian region, there are two types of mining that are prevalent. The first is the traditional method of digging a tunnel deep into the side of the mountain. The other method is called mountaintop removal, which is when high amounts of explosives are used to remove layers of rock and soil on top of the mountain to reach and remove coal beneath. This method has become popular but also controversial.
"Through the mountaintop removal method, the picturesque mountain landscape of the Appalachians is being leveled off and transformed into barren land where nothing grows," said Przybylski.
The group learned that another problem with this mining method is that deposits of coal slurry (the byproduct of mining) are polluting the drinking water and filling the air with dust, making some regions of the mountains simply uninhabitable.
During their time there, the group met residents, all of whom had different opinions on coal mining and the general quality of life for the region. They met Mike, a 30-year veteran coal miner, who wanted the group to leave remembering that the people in Appalachia are "not stupid and actually make a contribution to society." They quickly learned that he was right after spending time in the coal mine and taking into consideration all the technical aspects to the field.
They also met two local artists named Jeff and Sharmaine, who lived at the base of a mountain that was using the mountaintop removal method. The two are experiencing trouble breathing and are also under heavy fire from the surrounding town because of their anti-coal views. And then they met Sheralin, a female coal miner who spoke about diversity in the mining workplace and adapting to being both a woman and an African-American working in a male-dominated career. She is suffering from Black Lung, a common disease that coal miners develop from breathing in coal dust for years. She told the group that she will support the miners and their families for as long as they work in the mines.
And while Kentucky may feel far away, Przybylski and the other students came home with a better sense of how the work done in the Appalachia region affects us all – even right here at Fisher.
"The coal that is being mined creates light and heat energy for us; coal mining is also contaminating some of our water sources, which is a staggering fact," said Przybylski.
While they were there, the group replanted 2,700 trees on a mine site to restore the beauty that was once there, but they left feeling compelled to do more.
"We need to make simple changes to conserve our natural resources," said Przybylski. "Shut off lights that are not being used, lower the thermostat when no one is home, and don't waste water. Some areas of West Virginia are without clean drinking water. West Virginia borders Pennsylvania, which borders New York – it all hits close to home," added Przybylski.
Over the course of their seven-day trip, the group also got to see the coal mines up close and saw the work that went into mining. In addition, they traveled around the region weatherizing low-income homes, painted a community center, and replanted tree on several more sites, working with the Appalachian Regional Reforestation Initiative.
Team Appalachia is already talking about a similar trip for Spring Break in 2014. The group has organized an information session for those who may want to learn more on Tuesday, April 9, at 12:30 p.m. in Basil 135.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has told Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback that a new state law attempting to block federal regulation of some guns is unconstitutional and that the federal government is willing to go to court over the issue.The U.S. attorney's office for Kansas on Thursday released a copy of a letter from Holder to Brownback.
Kansas higher education officials are depending upon Gov. Brownback to convince lawmakers to preserve money for public universities and colleges.Brownback toured university and community college campuses last week to highlight education's importance to the state economy.The governor and other Republicans want Kansas to phase out individual income taxes over the next few years.To replace that lost funding, Gov. Brownback wants to make a temporary sales tax that's set to expire in July permanent.
Gov. Sam Brownback met with leaders at Wichita State University Monday to solicit support for his funding proposal that would help maintain state dollars for higher education.
Gov. Sam Brownback has signed into law a bill to combat human trafficking and exploitation of underage sex workers.
The governor signed the bill Monday, saying it will provide increased criminal penalties and services for victims of sexual exploitation.
"This would not only strengthen our ability to severly punish traffickers," said Brownback. "It would give us valuable new tools to protect vulnerable young victims so they can have hope of a new life and break the cycle of exploitation."
The bill modifies Kansas human trafficking laws passed nearly a decade ago.
Gov. Sam Brownback will start a tour of the state's universities this week to pitch his funding proposal to lawmakers.
Gov. Sam Brownback has signed a bill into law that allows drug testing for people receiving some types of state assistance or unemployment payments.
Brownback called drug use a "scourge" in Kansas.People receiving certain assistance payments could be tested if there's suspicion they're using drugs. If they test positive, they would have to complete drug treatment and job training.
In a recent article in Governing Magazine, two tax analysts were asked which state had passed the worst tax policy in the last year, and both said Kansas.
One of the analysts was from the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities and the other was from the right-leaning Tax Foundation.

The Kansas Association of Realtors gathered at the Statehouse before sending members to meet with state legislators.
The Kansas Senate Assessment and Taxation committee endorsed most of Gov. Sam Brownback's tax plan Tuesday. The committee spent fewer than 10 minutes discussing the governor's proposals before approving the bill. The legislation could move to the full senate for debate next week.
Gov. Brownback wants to phase out personal income taxes in Kansas over the next four years. The committee kept the governor's call to balance the tax cuts by making a temporary sales tax hike permanent. However, they cut his proposal to eliminate an income tax deduction for property taxes on homes.
Gov. Sam Brownback has proclaimed Wednesday "Armed Forces Appreciation Day" in Kansas.
The governor says it's "a chance to show our deep gratitude for their service and sacrifice--and the sacrifice made by their families. Today we pledge our support for them in peace, in crisis, and in war."

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?

28 Jan 2013 13:34 GMT | Sport, Cycling, France, Spain
A doctor accused of masterminding a vast doping network that rocked the sporting world and snared top cyclists went on trial in Spain on Monday along with four alleged conspirators.
The case centres on a sophisticated network which was blown wide open on May 23, 2006 when Spanish police seized around 200 bags of blood in an investigation dubbed "Operation Puerto".
Trial witnesses include Alberto Contador, the Tour de France winner in 2007 and 2009 who has returned to competition after a two-year ban for testing positive to banned substance clenbuterol, which he blamed on a contaminated steak.
He was initially linked to the Puerto case but later cleared of any involvement.Bad publicity
The current trial in Madrid will do little to boost the credentials of a sport still reeling from Lance Armstrong's admission that he cheated his way to a record seven Tour de France wins.
The five defendants are facing charges of an "offence against public health", including the suspected mastermind of the network, 57-year-old doctor Eunomian Fuentes.
The other four are Fuentes' sister Yolanda; former Liberty Segura's cycling team director Manolo Saiz; former Comunitat Valencia cycling team chief Vicente Belda along with his deputy, Jose Ignacio Labarta.
Fuentes, in a suit and blue tie, and the other four defendants were swarmed by reporters as they arrived at the Madrid court for the start of the hearing.
They are charged with endangering public health rather than incitement to doping, which was not a crime at the time of the arrests. A Spanish anti-doping law was passed only in November 2006.
The distinction between the two charges is likely to be pivotal.
The prosecutor is seeking a two-year prison sentence plus a two-year professional ban for the accused. He will have to show the performance-enhancing blood transfusions put the riders' health at risk.
Fuentes, who has denied putting athletes' health at risk, will be the first defendant to take the stand.
Witnesses such as former cyclist Jesus Manzano, who is scheduled to testify on February 11, will try to refute that assertion.
Since 2004 Manzano, a former rider on Spanish team Kelme, of which Fuentes was then the head doctor, has alleged generalised doping in the team and says he himself underwent transfusions of adulterated blood.
The 30-year-old Contador, due to appear on February 5, was cleared of any involvement in the Puerto affair by a Spanish judge and the sport's world governing body the International Cycling Union (UCI).
A case against the network's alleged blood expert, doctor Jose Luis Merino Batres, has been provisionally closed on the grounds that he has Alzheimer's disease.
Widespread involvementAlthough a number of top cyclists were implicated in the affair, initial reports, as well as Fuentes, said other athletes - primarily tennis players and footballers - had been involved.Those statements were later retracted.
The investigators' final report contained a list of 58 clients, all cyclists.
Of them, only six have suffered sporting sanctions: Valverde, Germans Jan Ullrich and Joerg Jaksche and Italians Basso, Michele Scarponi and Giampaolo Caruso, who was later acquitted by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
The investigating judge, Antonio Serrano, closed the case in 2007 and 2008 on the grounds that the doping-related allegations were not illegal at the time and that the small amounts found of blood-booster EPO (erythropoietin) did not constitute a health risk.
The Madrid Provincial Courts obliged him to re-open the case.
The opening hearing in the case was due to deal with procedural matters. The trial is expected to last until March 22.

I absolutely love this series! These books
just keep getting better and better. This is one of my
favorite series and I would recommend it to anyone and
everyone. Even people who don't like to read would love
the Hallowmere series; that is how wonderful these books
really are. By Venom's Sweet Sting is full of adventure
and mystery with a perfect twist of romance, love, and
hate. This novel kept me intrigued and guessing what
would happen next until the very end and still after I
finished reading it. The author is an awesome writer and
uses vocabulary mostly appropriate for the age level, but
a few words are kind of hard, so occasionally you might
need to pull out the dictionary and look a few words up. I
can't wait to read the rest of this powerfully dramatic
series and find out what will happen to Corrine, her
friends, and her love life next.

Important Near-Gem 1839 No Drapery Dime1839 10C No Drapery MS64 NGC. Fortin-105a. An important, short-lived type coin, the No Drapery issue is an especially desirable issue in mint condition. Probably somewhere around a hundred pieces have been certified by NGC and PCGS in MS64 and better grades, but this is nowhere near enough examples to satisfy collector demand for high grade 19th century type coins. This particular coin displays pinpoint striking details and the surfaces are smooth and satiny with just the slightest overlay of toning. Mildly abraded overall with three more noticeable field marks on the obverse. A die crack bisects the obverse. Fortin writes about the present variety, "This is an extremely rare early die state variety and always in demand due to the lack of availability of Pie Shaped Shattered obverse examples." Population: 37 in 64, 58 finer (3/05).

Rikki added a post in a topic Mark forum as read - should be at the top of the page on mobile, not bottomThink about what you spend most of the time doing in forum view, however - it'll be clicking topics or changing pages. You're only going to start a new topic or mark the forum as read occasionally. It doesn't make sense to put them at the top of the page, taking up ~1/4 of the vertical height.
The same argument could be made of the index too, although in this case I think it's useful to invite users to contribute as soon as they hit the homepage.
Rikki added a post in a topic Your new release notes section is niceI added a javascript controller to the page (Pages > Templates > Add JS file, and then choose it under the Page Includes tab when editing the page) that handles loading a record URL with ajax. The contents of it is below. There's a little trick here - calling a record URL via ajax will normally only return the reviews/comments section, but by passing rating_submitted I can bypass that and get the whole page. That's a quirk I've noted internally and we can hopefully improve that in future so this undocumented trick isn't needed.

In 1953 the name was changed to Northwest Community College, and in 1968 the college's tax base was expanded to include all of Park County. The name changed once more to Northwest College in 1989. Over the years, the quality of instruction matured, and a residential campus developed. Northwest's 124-acre campus is one of the most attractive college campuses in Wyoming. Its 57 buildings include 14 instructional facilities, four residence halls and 80 apartments for 750 students, a student center, a child care center, and a library with electronic access to other libraries. Northwest College is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, the National Association of Schools of Music, the National League for Nursing, and National Association for the Education of Young Children.

Nevada Senior
40: 4.53
Has good size and arm strength. Shows good zip and velocity down the field and has the arm strength to thread the needle. Does a nice job on the outs and crossing routes as he can lead receivers. Capable of going to his second read. Is capable of making plays with his legs. Deceptively explosive when he can get to the edge and turn it up field because of his long stride gives him good speed. Comfortable throwing on the move and can extend the play. Has long arms to fight off defenders and can be tough to sack, even throwing out a nice stiff arm.
Is not a good decision maker. Tends to trust his arms and legs too much. Not comfortable throwing from the pocket, and playing in the pistol offense means he never takes snaps from under center. Not comfortable moving and sliding within the pocket to avoid the rush, and constantly looks to escape outside the pocket. It leads to him taking a lot of sacks if you can cut off his escape route. Doesn't really know how to throw the ball away. Shows poor ball security when he's out on the move, carrying the ball like a loaf of bread which can lead to fumbles. Doesn't show good touch on his throws, and most of them are lasers and they tend to sail on him. Accuracy is erratic. Has an elongated windup for a release, much like a pitcher. Forces too many throws and doesn't do a good job looking off defenders.
Kaepernick has intriguing combination of size, arm strength, and athleticism, but that's all he is: intrigue. I've watched him since he was a redshirt freshman starter, and he has not shown significant improvement as a passer since them despite all of his experience. He's a dual threat guy that can make plays, but he doesn't show enough of the tools and skills to be a competent passer at the next level. His numbers improved each year, capping off with a 13-1 record as a senior, completing 64.9% of his 359 attempts for 3022 yards, 21 touchdowns, 8 interceptions, 1206 rushing yards, and 20 rushing touchdowns. Over his career, he accumulated a 32-16 record as a starter, completing 58.2% of 1271 attempts for 10,098 yards, 82 TDs, 24 INTs, and rushed for 4112 yards (6.9 avg) and 59 touchdowns.
The player that Kaepernick reminds me of is Vince Young. Like Young, he's got good tools with good size, mobility, and arm strength, but his mechanics and footwork need work. Kaepernick's release is just like a baseball pitcher's, and unlike VY he's going to take a lot of sacks because the ball takes a split second longer to come out, coupled with his poor pocket management skills. In the end, Kaepernick is going to struggle just like Young to be a consistent, efficient passer. He's going to have difficulty completing 60% of his passes and his poor touch isn't going to do his receivers many favors. His decision making isn't particularly good and I don't think he can manage an offense. If he had a running game like Young had in Tennessee, he might do alright. He's a good, humble guy that you like watching in college, but his skills don't translate well to the next level. He's a project, and even if you do develop him, again he's not going to be anymore effective a passer than Vince Young or Jason Campbell-type of starter. That's fine for a stopgap, but again that's the BEST you can hope for out of Kaepernick. I think it's doubtful he gets that far unless he goes to a team that really commits to sitting him for three whole years and having the talent around him that is going to take the onus off him to make an offense go. I think it's more likely that he becomes another Charlie Whitehurst, riding the pine for several years, but when you give him the opportunity to be a starter, he brings very little to the table that makes you think he learned much in all that time. I think a team that drafts him with the intention of developing him as a starter is going to be sorely disappointed. A team that drafts him purely for depth might become a bit more satisfied with the outcome.
Kaepernick could compete for a reserve role here in Atlanta. But he's too raw to think he's more than a practice squad player at the start, and unless the team dumped Redman as the No. 2, it's going to be hard for him to stick as anything more than the No. 3. He doesn't have the passing prowess to really surpass Wilson on the depth chart.
Kaepernick merits a look in the late rounds because he can play in this league, but not play well. He has marginal upside as a starter, so the highest he should go off the board is the fifth round.
1-poor, 2-weak, 3-above average, 4-very good, 5-elite
Arm Strength: 4.0
Accuracy: 2.5
Mobility: 4.0
Decision Making: 2.0
Mechanics: 2.0
Pocket Awareness: 2.0
Intangibles: 3.0

The Army Corps of Engineers sent a "swat" team of dewatering experts to help drain flooded subway tunnels.
How dare you swat me for standing up for my rights for demanding that I be treated as an equal human being.
Her family was offered security several times, but her father, an eminent and respected figure in swat, refused.
1796, American English and northern England dialect word, possibly an alteration of Middle English swap "to strike, smite" (see swap), ultimately of imitative origin. Related: Swatted; swatting. The noun is recorded from 1800.
verb phrase
To exchange information: I thought we might be swapping notes on that by now (1970s+)

Product description
At the end of the Second World War, some of the highest ranking members of the Nazi party escaped from justice. Some of them are names that have resonated deeply in twentieth-century history - Eichmann, Mengele, Martin Bormann and Klaus Barbie - not just for the monstrosity of their crimes, but also because of the shadowy nature of their post-war existence, holed up in the depths of Latin America, always one step ahead of their pursuers. The nature of their escape was as gripping as any good thriller. They were aided and abetted by corrupt Catholic priests in the Vatican, they travelled down secret 'rat lines', hid in foreboding castles high in the Austrian alps, and were taken in by shady Argentine secret agents. The attempts to bring them to justice are no less dramatic, with vengeful Holocaust survivors, inept politicians, and daring plots to kidnap or assassinate the fugitives. Guy Walters has travelled the world in pursuit of the real account of how the Nazis escaped at the end of the war, the attempts, sometimes successful, to bring them to justice, and what really happened to those that got away. He has interviewed Nazi hunters, former members of Mossad, and poured through archives across the globe to bring this remarkable period of our recent history to dramatic and vivid life.

By kevin byrne 15 Sep 2011
a book of facts that reads like fiction , a very intense read but worth every jaw dropping page .
Review quote
"First-rate" -- Max Hastings Sunday Times "It is gripping and well documented, and deserves a lasting place among histories of the war." Telegraph "The stuff of thrillers ... An enthralling book and a sobering one." Patrick Bishop "Absorbing and thoroughly gripping ... Walters proves emphatically that the reality of Nazi hunting is far more fascinating than the myth." -- James Holland "Hunting Evil is a model of meticulous, courageous and pathbreaking scholarship" Literary Review

I go through phases every once in a while when I get really sick of my apartment, and that's when I know it's time for some redecorating. It tends to happen around the turn of the season, which makes sense. As the weather and our wardrobes are changing, spring's pastel palette and neon summer hues are replaced by rustic, muted shades and cozy textures. For my home, though, I want to bring some green indoors so that I can still enjoy it once the leaves fall from the trees. Here's some of my current home décor inspiration!
- -Jan 11, 2013, 5:51AM
Nice..!! I like the way you have transformed your home into something green and lively.Makes you feel like you are out with the nature.I would like to put in some plants but my place is so cramped up with stuff that i barely find any space to keep them.Although I have a cactus and I absolutely find them adorable.Cute tiny spiked plants.I would also like to plant something for my hanging pots.Could you suggest something and I heard they are hard to maintain too.
- -Oct 05, 2012, 2:29PM
agree - i totally adore cactus plants. i'm about to venture into my own home decorating experience and i plan to include live plants. thanks for the inspiration!

OS has same annoyances, few improvements
A new Microsoft Windows operating system is always big news, especially for the federal government, which overwhelmingly relies on Windows of one stripe or another to run just about everything. The last reliably stable operating system to find widespread acceptance was Windows XP. Vista added a lot of user-friendly options but was more or less branded as a consumer product that is not suitable for business.
And now we have Windows 7, which is attempting to keep most of the niceties of Vista while maintaining the businesslike status that XP enjoyed.
After Windows 7 booted up, we gazed at the new desktop and saw — Windows Vista. What? Here's the dirty little secret that Microsoft is definitely not telling anyone: If you hated Vista because of the interface, you will hate Windows 7, too. Vista totally changed the look and feel of Windows from XP, but W7 only marginally changes the look and feel from Vista. Going on just the look and general behavior, W7 is little more than what Microsoft could have delivered in a free service pack to the Vista operating system.
Most of Vista's annoyances have remained intact. You are still bombarded with constant "Are you sure you want this program to run?" questions, even if W7 is running an internal process. Performance is also unchanged overall on a system running Vista compared with W7. Going from XP to W7 resulted in a slight performance decrease, much like when going from XP to Vista.
Of course, not everything is the same. Several of the improvements are good. For one, users don't get fooled when trying to shut down the PC. Under Vista, clicking the button with the international symbol for power throws it into hibernate mode. In W7, the power button actually says Shut Down and turns the system off.
Computers that go to sleep now do so extremely quickly. Even our most modest test systems were able to snooze in seconds. More impressively, they came back out of sleep mode in just a few seconds, too, even going so far as to automatically reconnect with our wireless network.
USB devices have become the cornerstone of PC use these days, be it in the form of portable hard drives, USB mice, digital cameras or even music players. With W7, those devices are almost instantly ready to use. The first time you plug in a portable hard drive to a system running W7, it will be ready to go in a few seconds. And any other time, there is almost no delay at all.
Windows 7 is a good operating system with a lot going for it. And it's stable. But it's not anything new. We hate to be the reviewers who say that the emperor has no clothes, but there's so much hype surrounding W7 that most people are probably expecting an entirely new operating system. What they will find is an improved version of Vista, with the same warts and flaws and a few improvements. That's really it.

Egg yolk, starches and flours, cream or fresh cream, milk and flavor enhancers are often used, mostly in combination, for thickening soups, sauces, vegetable broths and the like. The flavor enhancers used are generally salt- and glutamate-based seasonings which are primarily intended to intensify the specific flavor of the foods to be improved. So-called "sauce binders" are also known. These are primarily instantly soluble mixtures of modified starches and starch derivatives which are merely intended to increase the viscosity (texture) of the hot soup, sauce and the like.
For enhancing the enjoyment of foods, it is generally desired to add egg, butter and other milk-based constituents, especially cream, and flavor enhancers in order to improve flavor, color and texture. An additional thickening effect may then be obtained by adding thickeners and combinations thereof.
On a domestic scale, only small quantities of these individual constituents are generally required per application. Accordingly, there is an interest in having a universally useable mixture, particularly based on egg yolk, permanently available in stable, readily dispensable form in the home, which may be directly stirred for enrichment into the prepared, hot soup, sauce or a vegetable stock. However, it is important to bear in mind in this connection that egg yolk and especially whole egg tend to flocculate and coagulate when stirred into hot liquids and that egg and milk constituents (cream, milk, fresh cream, etc.) are known to keep for only a limited period, even in a refrigerator, after opening. Although an improvement in the keeping properties may be obtained by adding relatively large quantities of sugar or salt, flavor is overly affected in this way. Special sterilizing treatments are generally out of the question because both the consistency and flavor of the products are affected in this way. Accordingly, the preparations based on egg and milk products generally contain additions of preservatives to prevent microbiological decomposition. However, additions such as these are undesirable for various reasons. An egg-milk-sugar mixture which is pasteurized and chemically preserved is described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,920,966, whilst U.S. Pat. No. 2,848,334 describes a product for cool storage which, although keeping for only a limited period, also has to be pasteurized.
The object of the present invention is to provide, as a sauce enhancer, a preparation which is stable, conveniently dispensable from a tube and readily suspendable in liquid and which will keep for 6 to 8 months at room temperature without the addition of preservatives and without any additional heat treatment. The ready-to-use preparation is intended to be expressable from the tube even when cold, i.e., after removal of the tube from the refrigerator, and to be able to be stirred directly into the hot soup, sauce and the like in order to bring about the desired improvement in consistency, flavor and appearance.
It has now surprisingly been found that a preparation based on cream, egg yolk or derivatives thereof, a liquid butter fat fraction, milk derivatives and flavor intensifiers or enhancers is capable of achieving the object as stated above providing it has a pH-value of from 5.6 to 5.8, providing the water activity value (aW -value) as measured at 25� C. is adjusted to 0.84-0.9 and providing it contains an egg yolk modified by phospholipase A2. A thickening effect may be obtained by adding starch or starch derivatives.
So far as dispensability and ensuring bacteriological stability are concerned, the tube pack is optimal for preparations of the type in question. It has been found that, even in the case of microbiologically stable products based on egg or milk (for example sweetened condensed milk), mold or yeast growth cannot be ruled out after opening despite cool storage, particularly as a result of condensation in the product-free head space of other types of pack, for example screw-top bottles. Accordingly, the preparation according to the invention is intended to be packed and presented in tubes, ensuring its stability even after the pack has been opened.
The egg component used is a commercial, salted and pasteurized egg yolk. In order to avoid the above-mentioned tendency towards coagulation on stirring into hot foods, the phospholipides of the egg yolk are correspondingly modified by enzymatic hydrolysis. Through elimination of fatty acid residues, water-soluble lysophosphatides are formed. The egg yolk may be enzymatically pretreated or the phospholipase A2 is added in a quantity of from about 1000 to 1500 I.U./kg egg yolk at the beginning of the mixing process. One suitable preparation is inter alia the commercial product "Lecitase" made by Novo-Industri of Bagsvaerd, Denmark. Through the addition of an enzyme, the phospholipides of the egg yolk in particular and those of the milk components are converted into the corresponding lysophosphatides in situ, i.e., in the mixture of the components. The reaction is over after about 2 weeks at room temperature and ensures the stability of the preparation against coagulation when stirred into the hot foods.
Suitable milk components are primarily UHT-stabilized sweet cream, sour cream or fresh cream having the standing commercial fat content (>30%). Skimmed milk powder or any other dried milk derivative may be added to increase the milk solids.
A liquid butter fat fraction is used as the fat component either on its own or in admixture with low-melting vegetable fats, for example palm oil or other vegetable oils. The use of standard commercial butter or solid butter fat fractions is unsuitable for the preparation according to the invention because they cause crystallization in the prepared mixture, thus preventing or complicating expression or dispensability from refrigerated tubes. Accordingly, a low-melting (<13� C.) butter fat fraction is used instead of standard commercial butter. To round off the flavor and to reduce wate activity, sodium glutamate may be added instead of sodium chloride or part of the sodium chloride in the preparation according to the invention. The addition of sodium glutamate not only improves flavor, it also has the advantage that the water activity necessary for stability may be effectively adjusted in that way.
The components may be mixed with or without thickener, depending on whether only a thickening and flavor-enhancing effect or also an additional thickening effect is to be obtained. Suitable thickeners are starch derivatives having a low gelatinization temperature, particularly slightly crosslinked potato starches. Native starches are less suitable on account of their tendency to form a skin after preparation of the sauces, etc. However, the size of the starch content is limited on formulation grounds (adequate egg, milk, fat content).
Accordingly, an additional thickening effect may be obtained by relatively small amounts of K-carragheenate (for example Genulacta P100, KOBENHAVNS PEKTINFABRIK, Denmark). Kappa-carragheenate forms a gel structure with the milk protein fraction on heating, producing an additional increase in viscosity. The aqueous starting components, such as cream and salted egg yolk, should be sterilized or prepasteurized and hence free from pathogenic germs and sources of decay (molds, yeasts and lactobacilli).
To ensure the bacteriological stability of the end product without further heat treatment or the addition of bacteriostatic agents, the water activity (aW -value) has to be adjusted to a value of <0.9 and preferably to a value of from 0.86 to 0.88. The aW -value (=equilibrium moisture over the product in % atmospheric moisture) is another factor crucial to the stability of the preparation. With values below <0.84, there is a danger of dehydration reactions occurring during storage with a change in color, i.e., browning of the preparation even in the absence of air in the tube because, with aW -value of <0.84, the tendency towards Maillard reactions (formation of brown pigments from reaction products of amino acids and reducing sugars) increases, particularly at high storage temperatures. Both reactants, especially glutamic acid and lactose, are present in high concentrations in the product according to the invention. An additional delay in the formation of unwanted brown reaction products is also obtained by lowering the original pH-value of around 6.20 to values below 5.80. Relatively small, sensorially compatible additions of lactic or citric acid are sufficient for that purpose. After all the components have been mixed, the pH-value should preferably amount to 5.7. The preparation shows adequate microbiological stability even at storage temperatures of >30� C. In general, a reduction of any germ counts originally present by 1-2 powers of ten could be observed even in the sauce enhancer according to the invention after incubation for 4 weeks. Minor changes in taste during storage at 20� C. are observed at the earliest after 6 to 8 months, although there are no decay reactions, such as "curdling", oxidation of fats and the like. If the sauce enhancer is stored in a refrigerator, no changes are apparent even after more than one year. In practice, from 20 to 25 g of the sauce enhancer, i.e., about 1 tablespoonful or more or less, as required, are vigorously stirred with an egg whisk into approx. 0.5 l of prepared, cooked soup, sauce or vegetable stock after removal from heat, after which the food is ready for consumption. In the case of the starch-containing component, a single boiling is advantageous to reach the maximal end viscosity.
To prepare the sauce enhancer, the liquid components, namely cream and egg yolk, are premixed cold at 10-20� C., for example in a STEPHAN machine, after which the necessary quantity of lecitase in approx. 100 times the quantity of water is mixed in. It is also possible to mix the lecitase into the egg yolk beforehand and then to store the egg yolk in a refrigerator for about 1 week at around +5� C. The enzyme reaction takes place quantitatively in that time. This pretreatment also ensures the prevention of coagulation on heating.
The mixer is then evacuated by means of a vacuum pump and the fat component (liquid butter oil, possibly with vegetable oil added) is introduced under suction into the mixer rotating at high speed. The premixed dry ingredients, such as milk powder, glutamate, flavorings and optionally thickeners, are then introduced and thoroughly mixed in vacuo. The final temperature should be about 25�-30� C. The end product has a smooth, soft, margarine-like consistency and may readily be packed in tubes by means of metering pistons. Inclusions of air in the tube should be avoided as far as possible during packing. There is no need for special sterilizing measures.
