A few weeks ago, I spent a fairly life changing weekend in London. I'd booked my ticket for Blogtactular months before, but it wasn't until the last few weeks leading up to the conference that I realised quite what a big deal it was going to be...and I certainly wasn't wrong! I sort of felt like I'd walked in to a creative, technicolour tornado, with ideas, information and unbridled love and passion flying around my slightly bewildered head all day. It was the first time since finishing my art degree that I've been in the company of a whole room full of people who just get it!
It's taken me a few weeks to write this for a couple of reasons, one being that (as I briefly explained here) we have just moved house and haven't had the internet, but also because it's taken me this long to process everything and to digest all the information I collected on that whirlwind of a day. I'd like to share some of the main things I learned, and some of the fears I had that we're swiftly squashed by the positivity of the whole experience!
There were a few things that I became increasingly nervous about as the event drew nearer. Although I've been blogging now since 2010 (my first ever post is here if you're at all interested - I hope I've improved slightly since then) I've had a few big gaps, and it's only in the last few months that I've become more serious about it and started to imagine that writing could be a viable career for me. Because of this I convinced myself that everyone else would be established bloggers already making their blogs pay their wages. Of course this wasn't the case, there were plenty of people just starting out and I even managed to offer some guidance to a few people newer to the blogging game than me which was lovely. Also, it was great to spend some time with people who are already making a success out of blogging full time, or just on the brink of launching businesses as it helped to squash even smaller that little bit of self doubt that often creeps up on me.
Talking of self doubt, I've come across the phrase 'imposter syndrome' in the past, and it's definitely something that affects me. It definitely explains why I was on the escalator, wearing an interview-worthy grin but secretly thinking "perhaps I'll just go back to the hotel and come next year instead, after all I don't even really know what I'm going to say when people ask what I do and OH GOD I have no clue what SEO means and I'm not a real blogger and everyone is going to find out!" Turns out imposter syndrome affects everyone, including artist Lisa Congdon who gave the opening key note and who I sat in complete awe of and even cried a little at because she could have been talking about me! She also provided me with a concrete realisation as to why I love writing this so much (because I admit that to some people the idea of sharing pictures of the new plant pot you've just discovered you absolutely need seems completely pointless.) Lisa talked about the importance of connection, and how in the end it is at the core of happiness. You could have all the money and power in the world, but without connection, without love, without the things that make you curious, that spark joy (like that plant pot!) and that allow to you play, you'd be wobbling about on a two legged stool and I think we'd all agree that's not a good place to be!
Another defining moment for me was Laura Jane Williams' writing workshop. Right at the beginning of her talk she hit us with the revelation that 'Nobody Cares' - nobody really, truly cares what you write about, or how good your writing is, if they like it they'll keep reading and that's great, and if not - they don't care! While this is a little bit heartbreaking, it's also entirely liberating and gave me the feeling of complete licence to just keep writing what I love, and trusting that I can't please everyone. Another point that struck me was the notion that after something is written, it really isn't anything to do with you any more. Yes, you may have poured your heart and soul into it, but if somebody reads it and takes a different meaning from the one you intended, there's nothing you can do about that because it belongs to them now. I've heard this before, when authors are trying to find answers to questions from fans about elaborate theories that go deeper than the author ever intended them to go, but which have become just as important to the readers as the original story. It's like writing takes on a life of it's own after it's left the authors brain, and I think that's sort of magical.
I also met Allison Saddler at the creative genius bar, and basically tried to explain my entire life plan (or distinct lack of it) to her in 5 minutes! She was fantastic though, and talking things through with her made me realise I do have more of a plan that I realise, but it could definitely do with some tweaking. I spend a lot of time in my own head, and something I always realise after it's happened is how much clarity I get after I've spoken aloud to someone unbiased about the situation. After I'd stood on the escalator thinking "what do I say when someone asks me what I do?", I was quite surprised to hear semi-coherent sentences coming out of my mouth when asked that very question. The main problem I seem to have is wanting to do it all! I want to write, but I love sewing, I adore making things for children, but the wedding industry won't leave that little place in my brain where garlands and invitations are made. So, I've booked an appointment with Allison for a mentoring session at the end of the month, and I'm so excited to have a really selfish two hours talking about myself from a creative business perspective and hopefully coming up with a plan! I'm already flapping a bit...I will not get imposter syndrome. I. Will. Not. Maybe.
I feared I'd be the only new blogger, and in the end I didn't feel that new to it at all. I worried I wasn't supposed to be there at all, but learned that it was just sneaky ol' imposter syndrome creeping up on me! I learned that it's no fun to sit on a three legged stool - we all need a bit of time to play! Nobody cares what you write and after you've written it it doesn't belong to you anyway! I have more of a plan than I realise, and this is really just the beginning.
P.S The goodie bag (which by the end of the day I had totally forgotten was still to come) is AMAZING - It was designed this year by Hello Dodo and Designosaur Yeah and packed full of lovely lovely things - more on that soon!

Desperate Housewives star Dana Delaney has revealed how John Barrowman is fitting in on the set of the camp comedy-drama.
“I met him in the trailer yesterday – I’d never met him before. He is funny, he is irreverent and, oh my God, the stuff coming out his mouth! I just met him and I was like ‘who is this guy?’ – he’s great!
Dana admitted she wasn’t sure if she would be returning to Desperate Housewives next season.
Dana revealed that the current season of Desperate Housewives will end with high drama for Lynette.
Fresh from the final day of shooting, Dana – who plays Katherine Mayfair – said Felicity Huffman’s character features prominently in the last episode.
“I just came to visit because it was the last day. Felicity was in the last [episode] – it was a very dramatic scene and I tell you she did an excellent job,” she said.

Black sand stretches as far as the eye can see on this popular cruise ship landing site. At one time, Deception Island held a whaling station and remnants of old whaling boats can still be found there today.
The island itself is crater-like – part of an active volcano – and is actually quite warm in certain areas, as a result. Hiking along the edge of the crater makes for absolutely breathtaking views. It's a popular spot for brave tourists to take a polar plunge, running into the icy waters directly from the beach! Several colonies of chinstrap penguins live on Deception Island, as well as fur seals.
Penguins are the stars of Cuverville; the island is home to the largest Gentoo penguin colony on the Antarctic Peninsula.
Covered in ice and edged by rocky beaches under mossy cliffs, Cuverville Island has been designated an 'Important Bird Area' by Birdlife International. Antarctic Skuas, Southern Giant Petrels and Imperial Shags all call this beach island home.
Part of the Falkland Islands, Saunders Island is a spectacularly beautiful spot with a beach that rivals a Caribbean paradise. The island is a series of peninsulas linked together by stretches of land known as necks.
With white sand and crystal blue water, Saunders Island is the perfect place to sit and observe the thousands of breeding pairs of Rockhopper and Gentoo penguins, albatrosses and more who call the island home.
Photos of this South Georgia destination display throngs of black, white and brown specks peppered throughout the scenery. These are thousands of juvenile and adult King penguins, as far as the eye can see. The island is home to a colony of over 110,000 breeding pairs.
It is also one of the largest elephant seal breeding beaches, with over 6000 cows at peak time. Often, reindeer can be seen grazing in the hills. It's a wildlife photographer’s dream!
Climb up to a high peak and overlook the pristine blue and white ice, glass-like water and your fellow passengers below.
If you're lucky enough to witness an iceberg or glacier calving, the resulting waves washing up on the shore are spectacular. Two hundred and fifty breeding pairs of Gentoo penguins call Neko Harbour home and Weddell seals can often be seen laid out on the cobblestone beach.

Robert Nolte of Columbia, a senior at Illinois School for the Visually Impaired, answers questions about Braille charts and graphs Thursday during the regional Braille Challenge at ISVI.
Fourteen visually impaired students participated Thursday in a contest to determine their proficiency in Braille.
The event marked the sixth time Illinois School for the Visually Impaired had hosted a regional Braille Challenge, a national program of the Braille Institute. This was the only Braille Challenge regional in Illinois.
“The importance of this event is to present a venue for visually impaired students to socialize with kids just like them,” said Gina Carr, a Braille educator at ISVI and the school’s Braille Challenge coordinator.
“They are here for the competition, but it also gives them the chance to interact with other visually impaired students and for parents to socialize with other parents,” said Darla Chambers, an elementary school educator at ISVI who started the regional Braille Challenge at ISVI in 2013.
The Braille Challenge has five divisions — apprentice for first- and second-graders; freshman for third- and fourth-graders; sophomore for fifth- and sixth-graders; junior varsity for seventh- through ninth-graders; and varsity for 10th- through 12th-graders.
The contest involves spelling, proofreading, tactile charts and graphs, reading comprehension and speed and accuracy.
All contest questions are in Braille and the students enter their answers using a Braille writer.
“We have a lot of repeat competitors who look forward to The Braille Challenge all year long,” Chambers said.
Of the 14 contestants Thursday, nine were ISVI students, while the other five traveled from around the state to compete.
Any visually impaired student who reads Braille is eligible to participate in the regional events, which are held from January through March in the United States and Canada.
Contests are proctored by teacher volunteers and scored locally by volunteer transcribers, based on national guidelines, according to the Braille Institute’s website.
The Braille Institute will host the national Braille Challenge in June in Los Angeles.

What baggage am I packing with me on my trip to Pakistan?
I have been thinking about my visit to Pakistan for a few weeks now. I have never been before – and I want to take a snapshot of my emotional response and limited perceptions of the country in advance. Previous travel has revealed the how-wrong-I-was factor loud and clear. So allow me to be ill-informed, naive, and for a moment – if only to pick apart my prejudice at a later date.
Although I haven’t been to Pakistan, I have been to Afghanistan and India and spent three years living in Sri Lanka, so I have had some experience of the region. That said, living in Sri Lanka was as much preparation for India as Germany was for France. Same same but different, one might say.
I know from books that Pakistan is a diverse land. The Indus valley civilisation. A busy commercial hub in Karachi. A Baluchistan that floods too often sweeping away cattle and livelihoods. Devilish mountains bordering China that challenge its inhabitants and thrill European mountaineers. The notorious FATA region – much in the news of late, I imagine to be full of mountain peaks, hidden fortresses and secret tunnels. And of romantic figures on horseback (not unlike 007’s friend Art Malik as a Mujahadeen Commander in The Living Daylights). And everyone has an automatic weapon.
People are what gives a country it’s heart beat. Having never been there my perceptions of the Pakistanis are cast by the diaspora community in Britain (including Mr Malik). This diaspora was invited to the UK to work when Britain had a labour shortage in the 1950s. This diaspora were offered refuge when the Mangla Dam flooded villages in Mirpur. A community invited to settle. And increasingly the diaspora consists of professionals – doctors – offered a managed migration route to help the sick in Britain. They number nearly a million in Britain – and yet how is it I know so little about Pakistan?
At the school I went to in Bristol, we never stopped to ask each other where we were from. It’s only looking back and with greater knowledge of the world do I understand from given names that my school mates were likely Tamils or Muslims or Indian or African. One of my first boyfriends was half Pakistani and half Scottish and equally proud of both – but this was unusual in inner city Britain in the 70’s and 80’s nobody seemed to wear their heritage on their sleeves. Besides, we were raised not to question where someone was from, lest we view people as “the other” and offend, so of the many colleagues and friends I have spent time along side over the years, I have rarely asked them about their roots. I feel slightly ashamed that I haven’t now. Perhaps going to Pakistan will be a starting point for a deeper understanding of my diaspora friends.
Next week I will be tentatively dipping a toe in Pakistan. It’ll be hand luggage only and I won’t go far, but it will be a starting point for what I hope will be the beginning of a beautiful relationship with a country that I have longed to visit for years – and often wonder why I didn’t. I’m happy to share my first impressions and better informed emotional response with you on these pages (as I have with Iraq and Afghanistan and even France).

i have been thinking about my visit to pakistan for a few weeks now. i have never been before – and i want to take a snapshot of my emotional response and limited perceptions of the country in advance. previous travel has revealed the how-wrong-i-was factor loud and clear. so allow me to be ill-informed, naive, and for a moment – if only to pick apart my prejudice at a later date.
although i haven’t been to pakistan, i have been to afghanistan and india and spent three years living in sri lanka, so i have had some experience of the region. that said, living in sri lanka was as much preparation for india as germany was for france. same same but different, one might say.
i know from books that pakistan is a diverse land. the indus valley civilisation. a busy commercial hub in karachi. a baluchistan that floods too often sweeping away cattle and livelihoods. devilish mountains bordering china that challenge its inhabitants and thrill european mountaineers. the notorious fata region – much in the news of late, i imagine to be full of mountain peaks, hidden fortresses and secret tunnels. and of romantic figures on horseback (not unlike 007’s friend art malik as a mujahadeen commander in the living daylights). and everyone has an automatic weapon.
people are what gives a country it’s heart beat. having never been there my perceptions of the pakistanis are cast by the diaspora community in britain (including mr malik). this diaspora was invited to the uk to work when britain had a labour shortage in the 1950s. this diaspora were offered refuge when the mangla dam flooded villages in mirpur. a community invited to settle. and increasingly the diaspora consists of professionals – doctors – offered a managed migration route to help the sick in britain. they number nearly a million in britain – and yet how is it i know so little about pakistan?
at the school i went to in bristol, we never stopped to ask each other where we were from. it’s only looking back and with greater knowledge of the world do i understand from given names that my school mates were likely tamils or muslims or indian or african. one of my first boyfriends was half pakistani and half scottish and equally proud of both – but this was unusual in inner city britain in the 70’s and 80’s nobody seemed to wear their heritage on their sleeves. besides, we were raised not to question where someone was from, lest we view people as “the other” and offend, so of the many colleagues and friends i have spent time along side over the years, i have rarely asked them about their roots. i feel slightly ashamed that i haven’t now. perhaps going to pakistan will be a starting point for a deeper understanding of my diaspora friends.
next week i will be tentatively dipping a toe in pakistan. it’ll be hand luggage only and i won’t go far, but it will be a starting point for what i hope will be the beginning of a beautiful relationship with a country that i have longed to visit for years – and often wonder why i didn’t. i’m happy to share my first impressions and better informed emotional response with you on these pages (as i have with iraq and afghanistan and even france).

Online Retail’s Having A Good Year. So Is Cardboard.
On August 19, 2016 the NPR program Here & Now interviewed Bob Gedert of the National Recycling Coalition about what the boom in online retail means for cardboard recycling.
The National Recycling Coalition, in conjunction with Austin Resource Recovery and the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio, is convening a roundtable discussion about best practices in diversion – with an emphasis on reuse, recycling and composting strategies. We welcome waste management authorities, city recycling coordinators and others to join in a two-part conversation about which diversion strategies work well and why, and how we can leverage peer to peer relationships to encourage widespread adoption of best practice. We request participants bring one example of applied best practice and one issue your community would like to learn more about.
Over the past five years or so, leading solid waste and recycling organizations, communities and businesses across the country have increasingly embraced Zero Waste. Zero Waste policies and programs establish practical ways to eliminate waste and safely reuse, recycle or compost discarded products and packaging. However, there has been confusion in the marketplace due to the many definitions of “zero” that are being used.
The key measure of performance toward ZWIA’s Zero Waste definition is diverting 90 percent of all discarded materials from landfills, incinerators and the environment. While it’s true that 90 percent diversion does not equate to zero landfilling, the goal is viewed – both by ZWIA and NRC – as the most reasonable and yet ambitious target the industry should be aiming for. When referring to the zero waste definition, ZWIA encourages that to be capitalized, as is commonly done in contracts and other legal documents when referring to a defined term.
One compelling reason for NRC to adopt the ZWIA definition of Zero Waste is that it is the only peer-reviewed definition in existence today. It’s also been accepted by environmental, recycling and Zero Waste leaders all around the world. To date, many organizations, businesses and communities have adopted and support the ZWIA definition. It has also been embraced by many members of NRC.
Another facet of the zero waste definition that NRC finds especially useful is that it does not count waste-to-energy as diversion. While some companies and groups have endorsed a “zero landfill” practice, it is important to ensure that diverted material is not headed for incineration either.
The Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA) has acknowledged that it has members that support waste-to-energy while others support Zero Waste. SWANA wants to support both of those groups of members, so it has agreed to not view waste-to-energy as part of Zero Waste.
The U.S. Conference of Mayors adopted a resolution “In Support of Municipal Zero Waste Principles and a Hierarchy of Materials Management” last year that also highlighted that waste-based energy should be counted as disposal, not diversion.
NRC hopes that adopting ZWIA’s clear-sighted definition will help its members and the industry to continue to strive for the highest waste diversion and recycling goals and encourage them to divert as much as possible. NRC joins other organizations like the U.S. Zero Waste Business Council and Zero Waste USA, and many businesses and communities who have also adopted this definition. NRC encourages others to adopt this definition as well.
Please email me at [email protected] if you know of any business, government agency or organization that adopts it.

Error at adaptor.ts when building - Kantu - Forum for Kantu Task and Test Automation and the free OCR API.
Hi, i’m new at kantu and i had trouble building the src code form github when i downloaded it.
There was an error at first when i try to run npm run build and after a bit of searching i thought to update the version of webpack at package.json.
Yeah, the link is dead because " imagesearch-testextension" is an old test app that is no longer needed. So we removed it from the repo. Please delete it (or re-checkout kantu source) and then the build process should work.
the newest from git doesn’t build without “imagesearch-testextension” apparently. adaptor.ts was looking for it. I actually was able to compile mine by taking a copy of imagesearch-testextension from an older version.

A LULA elevator is a limited use/limited application hybrid that combines features of a commercial elevator and a wheelchair lift. It is designed to be used only in a low-rise commercial building, not a home.
A LULA takes up only about half the space of a traditional elevator, with an area of just 18 square feet. It is designed to be used in a small building that does not have enough space for a conventional elevator. A LULA is just big enough to fit a wheelchair. It is intended to be used by only one handicapped individual at a time. It is not meant to be used by the general public.
A LULA requires only 14 inches for a pit and 102 inches of overhead space for an existing building or 134 inches for a new construction. It can travel up to 25 feet at a speed of up to 30 feet per minute. A LULA can transport up to 1,400 pounds.
If you need to improve accessibility at home for yourself or a family member, you have other elevator choices. Home elevators are available in a variety of designs with many optional features. You can choose from cable-driven, hydraulic, and pneumatic vacuum elevators in an array of sizes. Some are large enough to accommodate a wheelchair or multiple passengers. Residential elevators can also be customized with many decorative features.
If you need to improve mobility at home, you have many options available. However, if you need to increase accessibility for handicapped people who work at or visit your business, a LULA could be the solution you need.

Youth groups are a vital part of Trinity. Friendships made in Trinity youth groups in the 1960s last until today. Our many outreach programs also appeal to young people committed to social action. But modern life, with its many distractions, has made gathering youth into social groups more difficult.
Nov 6 – Game night- 7:00-9:30 at Trinity- Bring your own board/card game or use one of the classics we’ll have available.
Sunday, Dec 27 – Chapel on the Green: 1:00-3:30, truly celebrate Christmas by helping make and serve lunch and participate in Eucharist with this awesome outreach program.
More information and specifics will be made available closer to each trip. Watch for announcements. Also, we are looking for adult volunteers willing to give some time and talent to this new youth initiative. Want to work directly with youth? Willing to drive? Willing to bake? Have something else to offer? We want to hear from you! For more information about trips or to volunteer your time, please get in touch with Pat Rossiter.
Our Trinity youth leader is also a member of the Men and Girls Choir. You can contact him by email, Pat Rossiter, or by phone at (860) 304-9198.
Jesus, be with me. Hold me in your loving hands. Thank you for the skills I’ve learned. Comfort me when I am unsure of my new surroundings. Strengthen me with your power. and help me transform my city with your light that shines in all places. All this I ask through you, my guide and my redeemer.
Trinity volunteers are active at two soup kitchens in New Haven, Columbus House and the Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen (DESK). Each provides sustenance, comfort and fellowship to those in need who otherwise have little means of fending for themselves. Trinity volunteers choose and work assigned shifts once a month or more frequently — a few hours in early evening each time.
The Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen’s programs serve a diverse community of New-Haven-area at-risk individuals, families and children who are “food insecure.” These programs for many are satisfying the basic day-after-day need for nourishing food.
DESK serves dinner every evening of the week. Trinity participates the second Tuesday each month from 5:15 to 6:30 PM at the Center Church Parish House, 311 Temple Street. If you want to help, contact Chuck Kaywood.

I got some and used it this last weekend on three boils and it worked great. I love being abel to walk away from the pot when it gets close to boiling.
My question is, how does this stuff work?
Also, are there any potential negative side effects?
I love FermCap-S. It helps prevent foaming and boilovers by affecting surface tension. It also keeps the krausen under control (don't need as much headspace)--no wasted beer in blow off tubes, no clogged or blown airlocks. I'm able to easily brew 4.5 gallons in a 5 gallon corny keg with a fermenter lid and 3 piece airlock. The same is true for my plastic fermentor buckets. The "high-water mark" ring of trub in the fermentor is no more than an inch or so above the beer. I do brew in a temp-controlled fridge which does help keep the fermentation under control, as well.
I've not noticed any detrimental effects (e.g., beer foam height or retention, lacing, flavor, aroma).
1.) Boiling your starter wort in the Erlenmeyer flask--really watch the wort as it gets close to boiling and reduce the flame/energy or move the flask off of the burner ASAP (while wearing protective oven mitts on both hands, of course!). I have a ceramic stovetop, so I sometimes move half of the flask off the burner to help control the rate of heat transfer as we approach boiling.
2.) Bringing your first runnings to a boil while sparging. The first runnings are more concentrated (higher SG) and more prone to boiling over. It is easily neglected while your attention is directed towards collecting the second runnings. Be sure to add the FermCap-S right away and transfer some of the second runnings ASAP to help dilute the first runnings (prevents scorching and boilovers, IMO).
As much as I love Fermcap S, I've started looking for alternatives since I learned that the manufacturer really intends for beer using it to be filtered before consumption. I recently ordered some Fermcap AT, which I understood to be different and able to be used in unfiltered beers. After further research, it appears that might not be the case. It looks like either version of Fermcap attaches itself to yeast and fermenter and walls and doesn't actually end up ion the beer, but there's enough conflicting info to make me keep looking for the real answers.
Hmm, that's a bummer. After reading through those links I'm a little queasy about using fermcap in the primary. I could do without it there but I really like to use it when I'm boiling starters. I guess the two or three drops I put into the starter wort wouldn't carry over to much of a concentration by the time it gets to the glass. So maybe I'll continue to do that.
But I'm going to think pretty hard before I add it to the fermenter again.
Interesting. Not sure I'll use it in my fermentor, but it would appear that it wouldn't transfer from the kettle once the wort is cooled. In any case, thanks a bunch for the info.
The LD50 (Rat) is 5 grams per kilo. That sounds pretty safe to me.
I'd still prefer not to drink it though, but I love using it in starters, the boil, fermentation, even cleaning my carboys and kegs (PBW foams when I run it through my rig). I either need a replacement product that doesn't need to be filtered or I need to start filtering.
THe LD50 (rat) for 95% ethanol is around 8g/kg.
Exactly. Someone is more likely to try to drink a pint (or more) of 95% ethanol, than a pint of Fermcap-S (10% DMPS), and they'd be better off with the Fermcap-S according to the MSDS. Although you might want to check my math.
Good points to consider. I use just a dropper (or two) full when doing a 10 gallon batch.
I think a lot of it stays behind on the break material and on the yeast.
In the glass, my beer foam is long-lasting and I note no unusual taste.
Kidneys and intestines seem to still be in working order.
I'd use none if I could, but FermCap-S really makes things less messy and wasteful.
I started to do the calculation on converting the LD50 of ethanol to an equivalent amount of 5% ABV beer for a 100kg human, but it only showed something like 1.5L. I concluded that rats can't hold their liquor like we humans. That or I messed up the calculation which is possible.
If you use the recommended 2drops/gal, thats 10 drops in 5gal and that might be around 1g (20 drops per gram of water but this looks a little thicker). We'll assume worst case that it all carries over to the 5gal of beer. Thats still under the dosage for an average 0.5kg rat if he drinks the whole 5gal. As a waxy substance I could see it possibly accumulating in fatty tissue. I'd be willing to bet you wouldn't carry over even 10% in the yeast of an unfiltered beer.
We'll assume worst case that it all carries over to the 5gal of beer. Thats still under the dosage for an average 0.5kg rat if he drinks the whole 5gal.
yeah, but you know damn well the little fooker isn't going to stop at that first keg. "betcha can't drink just one!" is his working motto.

If the LD50 (Rat) of 95% ethanol is 8g/kg and we assume it is the same for humans, that allows 800g of 95% ethanol for a 100 kg person, or 760g of 100% ethanol. If it's a 5% solution, that's by volume, so it's 4% ethanol by weight. One liter then contains 40 grams of ethanol, so it takes 19 liters to get to 760 grams. I suspect it would be very hard for a 100kg person to drink 5 gallons of 5% beer fast enough to kill themselves. You rarely hear about alcohol poisoning from people drinking beer, it's usually the hard stuff.
Although I think it also illustrates that the LD50 for humans is probably less than 8g/kg. I think a 750ml bottle of 95% ethanol each would be enough to kill more than half of the 100kg people in the world.
Someone should check this math too.

i got some and used it this last weekend on three boils and it worked great. i love being abel to walk away from the pot when it gets close to boiling.
my question is, how does this stuff work?
also, are there any potential negative side effects?
i love fermcap-s. it helps prevent foaming and boilovers by affecting surface tension. it also keeps the krausen under control (don't need as much headspace)--no wasted beer in blow off tubes, no clogged or blown airlocks. i'm able to easily brew 4.5 gallons in a 5 gallon corny keg with a fermenter lid and 3 piece airlock. the same is true for my plastic fermentor buckets. the "high-water mark" ring of trub in the fermentor is no more than an inch or so above the beer. i do brew in a temp-controlled fridge which does help keep the fermentation under control, as well.
i've not noticed any detrimental effects (e.g., beer foam height or retention, lacing, flavor, aroma).
1.) boiling your starter wort in the erlenmeyer flask--really watch the wort as it gets close to boiling and reduce the flame/energy or move the flask off of the burner asap (while wearing protective oven mitts on both hands, of course!). i have a ceramic stovetop, so i sometimes move half of the flask off the burner to help control the rate of heat transfer as we approach boiling.
2.) bringing your first runnings to a boil while sparging. the first runnings are more concentrated (higher sg) and more prone to boiling over. it is easily neglected while your attention is directed towards collecting the second runnings. be sure to add the fermcap-s right away and transfer some of the second runnings asap to help dilute the first runnings (prevents scorching and boilovers, imo).
as much as i love fermcap s, i've started looking for alternatives since i learned that the manufacturer really intends for beer using it to be filtered before consumption. i recently ordered some fermcap at, which i understood to be different and able to be used in unfiltered beers. after further research, it appears that might not be the case. it looks like either version of fermcap attaches itself to yeast and fermenter and walls and doesn't actually end up ion the beer, but there's enough conflicting info to make me keep looking for the real answers.
hmm, that's a bummer. after reading through those links i'm a little queasy about using fermcap in the primary. i could do without it there but i really like to use it when i'm boiling starters. i guess the two or three drops i put into the starter wort wouldn't carry over to much of a concentration by the time it gets to the glass. so maybe i'll continue to do that.
but i'm going to think pretty hard before i add it to the fermenter again.
interesting. not sure i'll use it in my fermentor, but it would appear that it wouldn't transfer from the kettle once the wort is cooled. in any case, thanks a bunch for the info.
the ld50 (rat) is 5 grams per kilo. that sounds pretty safe to me.
i'd still prefer not to drink it though, but i love using it in starters, the boil, fermentation, even cleaning my carboys and kegs (pbw foams when i run it through my rig). i either need a replacement product that doesn't need to be filtered or i need to start filtering.
the ld50 (rat) for 95% ethanol is around 8g/kg.
exactly. someone is more likely to try to drink a pint (or more) of 95% ethanol, than a pint of fermcap-s (10% dmps), and they'd be better off with the fermcap-s according to the msds. although you might want to check my math.
good points to consider. i use just a dropper (or two) full when doing a 10 gallon batch.
i think a lot of it stays behind on the break material and on the yeast.
in the glass, my beer foam is long-lasting and i note no unusual taste.
kidneys and intestines seem to still be in working order.
i'd use none if i could, but fermcap-s really makes things less messy and wasteful.
i started to do the calculation on converting the ld50 of ethanol to an equivalent amount of 5% abv beer for a 100kg human, but it only showed something like 1.5l. i concluded that rats can't hold their liquor like we humans. that or i messed up the calculation which is possible.
if you use the recommended 2drops/gal, thats 10 drops in 5gal and that might be around 1g (20 drops per gram of water but this looks a little thicker). we'll assume worst case that it all carries over to the 5gal of beer. thats still under the dosage for an average 0.5kg rat if he drinks the whole 5gal. as a waxy substance i could see it possibly accumulating in fatty tissue. i'd be willing to bet you wouldn't carry over even 10% in the yeast of an unfiltered beer.
we'll assume worst case that it all carries over to the 5gal of beer. thats still under the dosage for an average 0.5kg rat if he drinks the whole 5gal.

At West Village's Alger House—usually a posh, turn-of-the-century home where Turkish rugs cover hardwood, old paintings of hunting dogs hang on the walls and, last night, a fancy bar was re-adorned to serve vitaminwater—all eyes were on the stage, waiting for the young star to appear. JoJo's four-piece band and two backup singers stood at the ready, but she was nowhere to be seen when her powerful voice first washed across the room; she descended, near the middle of the venue, down an iron spiral staircase, slowly, like a star performing in a major Gene Kelly production. Under twinkling lights in a simple white dress, the 22-year-old singer whose first #1 single came, amazingly, nine years ago, delivered a heartfelt and glamorous set for this summer's vitaminwater and The FADER #uncapped series.
"Before we go any further, I think it's right that we take it back," she smiled, before launching into "Leave (Get Out)," a song from her first album that she later told Miss Info was recorded before she'd ever been kissed. (That full interview will be coming soon.) JoJo has clearly grown up, though, judging by her moving and explicit take on Drake's "Marvins Room," a rendition that's chorus—ending on I'm still in your head—she accentuated last night with a mockingly psychotic laugh. She brought in quite the team around her for "Anything," one of her poppiest hits, updating it with not only a rising singer and guitarist named Francesco ("My favorite 17-year-old from Toronto ever!" she cheered him on) but Casey Veggies, the Los Angeles #uncapped veteran with rap's brightest grin. Watch it above, and even better for you, next week we'll have a free download of JoJo and Casey Veggies' new "Anything (#uncapped Remix)".
The reason JoJo was the youngest person to score a solo #1 hit, and that she was so spectacular last night at Alger House is very simple: she has a phenomenal voice, like butterflies being released from a cage. She sounded best in the climactic moments when she led everyone into the chorus on tracks like "Demonstrate" and "Boy Without a Heart," handed it over to the backup singers and harmonized over the top, flying off script in her boldest and most confident voice, clearly in a league of her own. "I'm going to do something I'm really scared to do," she said at one point. "I'm going to do a Sade cover." Her take on "Sweetest Taboo" was a bit experimental, with a bass-y and almost house music spin, but JoJo had no reason to be worried—that voice will hold her down anywhere.

Internal hole processing is one of the more complex processes in mechanical manufacturing. Usually, its processing cycle is longer and the processing cost is higher. It is particularly difficult to process small and medium diameter holes with lower surface roughness and smaller tolerance of aperture, or small diameter deep holes and larger diameter deep holes. Rolling is the last process used in the finishing of inner holes, and it is an effective measure to ensure the final requirements of hole processing. Therefore, the application of roller burnishing processing is more and more.
According to the shape distinction of rolling elements directly contacting the workpiece hole wall in rolling process, there are three kinds of roller burnishing tools for inner hole: wheel roller, ball roller, pin roller.
Generally, the wheel roller burnishing tool has the advantages of simple structure, easy manufacture and good rigidity. Rolling deformation area and rolling pressure are usually large, suitable for rolling larger diameter holes. The structure of ball roller burnishing tool and pin roller burnishing tool is slightly complicated. They are generally used for rolling small and medium diameter holes. The deformation area of the two tools is smaller, but the rolling deformation area of the roller burnishing tool is slightly larger than that of the ball rolling tool. The materials of rolling elements are usually T10A or T12A steel. The hardness of heat treatment is HRC58-65. GCrl5 and W18Cr4V can also be used. Its heat treatment hardness is HRC61-65, and the rollers are made of cemented carbide directly. Its advantages are high hardness, long life, high efficiency and wide application range.
