jayson I posted cast iron basics in another post from my book. here is the seasoning section for you. if you have more questions ask away or pm me.
Cast Iron Basics
(Some of the most important things you need to know!)
Seasoning: Cast iron may be heavy, but with a proper seasoning, it is the greatest type of metal to cook in. But, you need to keep your cast iron free from rust and well seasoned to make it “stick free”.
When someone buys cast iron from the store, the foundry (manufacturer) coats the pot or pan with a coating of some sort to keep the item from rusting. This is done by spraying with a type of varnish or dipping it into hot paraffin wax. This protective coating must be cleaned off before seasoning your cast iron.
If your Dutch oven is made by LODGE, the protective coating is a sprayed varnish coating, which must be scrubbed off. Heat the Dutch oven inside your home oven to 225oF. then with a hot pad, lower the oven into hot soapy water, and scrub the Dutch oven with a S.O.S. pad. Scrub the inside and outside of the Dutch oven very well, rinse well, and towel dry. Then place the Dutch oven back into your oven at 225° to dry for about 10 to 15 minutes. The only way to dry cast iron is to dry it completely. I do mine in the oven because; the heat is not concentrated in one spot, as it is on the stove top, which can cause minute cracks.
If your Dutch oven is made by any of the other companies that make outdoor Dutch ovens, the protective coating is dipped paraffin wax, which can be burned off. Do this outdoors in your gas B.B.Q. or, a kettle type charcoal B.B.Q. like a Webber. In a charcoal B.B.Q., use Mesquite charcoal for fuel because it burns much hotter than briquettes. Start the charcoal or light the gas B.B.Q., set on high and pre-heat the B.B.Q. When the charcoal is white, spread it out a little so that is not to close to the cooking grate. Place the oven onto the cooking grate, upside down, and close the lid on the B.B.Q.
Heat the oven to 500° to 550° for 15 minutes. Close the B.B.Q. and cook the Dutch oven for about 1 hour at 500° to 550°, or until the oven stops smoking. Cool the scrub the oven and dry as directed above.
New and recent developments include “pre-seasoned” cast iron. If this is the case for you and your new Dutch oven or cast iron implement then you should still season the implement before you use it to cook and prepare food. Having pre-seasoned cast iron is much easier to prepare for your first initial seasoning in that, all you need to do is remove the cast iron from the box and wash it with very hot soap and water and rinse it well. Then, you can follow the directions below and season your cast iron, then use it to make delicious food for you, your family and friends.
To season the Dutch oven, place the oven upside down on the cooking grate and warm the oven for 10 to 15 minutes at 500° to 550°. With hot pads, remove the D.O. and rub a light coat of lard, bacon grease, white Crisco, or vegetable oil, using a paper towel.
Coat the inside and outside of the D.O. and lid. You only need a light coat of oil; you don’t want the grease to be dripping off the oven. Only apply enough fat to make the iron look wet. Place the Dutch oven back onto the cooking grate and cook the Dutch oven for about 1 hour at 500° to 550°, or until the oven stops smoking. Remove the oven from the B.B.Q. with hot pads to cool. If the D.O. is a glossy brown color, not black, return to B.B.Q. to cook about thirty more minutes. By doing this outside in the B.B.Q., you don’t have to fill the house with smoke and set off the smoke detectors.

Anderson County Schools’ energy upgrades saving more than forecast
CLINTON — An ambitious energy conservation project involving all 17 schools in the Anderson County school system is paying dividends, and that payoff is more than forecast.
The company that put the variety of energy-saving measures in place predicted savings of $463,369 for the first nine months the project was in place. The school system accepted the work last July.
But through March 31, the savings totaled $555,886, or 120 percent of what was expected, said James T. Woodward Sr., the school system's chief financial officer.
'This was a good move on our part,' said Woodward. 'We want to brag on this program.'
Anderson County Commission in 2014 approved a 15-year contract with Energy Systems Group to put a $9.6 million energy efficiency project in place, with expected savings earmarked to pay for the program.
Boiler systems were replaced at five schools, heating and cooling systems were upgraded, sensor systems were installed to automatically turn off lights and heating and cooling systems when rooms are unoccupied.
Single-pane windows at four schools were replaced with more energy-efficient windows, water conservation measures were implemented, and new suspended ceiling systems were installed.
The program even paid for front entrance buzz-in security systems at all schools.
A 35-year-old transformer at the Anderson County High School campus, which also serves the county's vocational-technical center and the new Clinch River Community School, was replaced with a smaller, more efficient transformer, Woodward said.
Overall, Energy Systems Group is guaranteeing the school systems will save $561,884 annually. Those savings will be used to pay for the program.
'We don't have to put money into the budget to pay for it,' Woodward said.
'I think this is going to produce real positive benefits for us for a long time to come,' he said, adding that the upgrades also provide 'a much more efficient educational environment.'
Energy Systems Group is guaranteeing the county school system will save at least $561,884 a year with the energy upgrades, and the savings are closely monitored.


IBM's Santa Teresa complex is built on a 1,180-acre site in San Jose's foothills, a beautiful natural setting, of which 90 percent is set aside as open space. The facility, designed by MBT Architecture, houses 2,200 persons engaged primarily in computer programming and related services. This large complex solves a long list of seemingly insurmountable problems. These included designing for a beautiful but earthquake prone natural setting; providing a large group of technical people with both extreme efficiency and human comforts; and meeting the highly specialized and demanding requirements of computers.
The campus like facility consists of eight cruciform shaped, four story buildings clustered tightly around a plaza and a 45,000 sf computer center. This center has one of the largest computer capabilities in the world. Support services are extensive and include a library, combination dining and meeting rooms, specialty conference and classrooms, a large reproduction facility, medical facility, employee services, recreation building, and maintenance facility.
The design of an efficient circulation pattern became extremely important once the campus configuration was selected. All buildings are linked beneath a second level, landscaped plaza which is a prime contributor to the non-institutional atmosphere of the complex. Most of the buildings are also linked by bridges at the upper floor levels. The core of each building contains the stairwells, elevators, restrooms, and administrative support centers, and is surrounded by a primary circulation corridor. Radiating from the core are identical wings of private offices and conference and computer terminal rooms.
The clustering pattern of three buildings, offset from the other five, marks the entrance from the visitor parking area and reduces the scale of the complex from the road. This organization opens up vista corridors diagonally and at right angles throughout the complex. Views to the surrounding hills and nearby valley are emphasized architecturally by the pattern of walkways on the plaza level.
Each building is color coded with brilliant colors; magenta, red, red-orange, yellow, green, teal, and blue, for easy building identification. On the exterior, the color coding exists only to where the wings of two structures join to form a courtyard. Therefore, each courtyard has a predetermined, complementary pair of colors. The interiors of the buildings are also completely color coded, from office tackboards to stairwells.
Faced with the challenge of siting a major computer facility in seismically active area, the MBT Architecture team designed the complex to accept earthquake forces determined by seismic analysis of the nearby faults including the immediately adjacent Shannon Fault. The facility utilizes steel frame structures that are highly flexible and capable of moving relatively freely under severe seismic conditions. The design incorporates lightweight, custom aluminum curtain wall panels, with flush glass floating in sealant with no mechanical restraint.
Energy conservation is achieved through exterior heat reflection, daylighting, earth insulation, internal heat recovery and special mechanical system controls. The mirrored glass walls and the burial of the first floor dramatically reduce external heat gain; the immediate proximity of the majority of offices to large windows permits minimum heat gain from lights. All space heating and water heating is by heat recovery from the computers and lighting fixtures. The variable volume system is computer controlled for optimal efficiency.
The development of the project involved rigorous fast tracking. Occupancy of the facility in 1977 occurred less than three years after the request for proposal was sent. The schedule was met, even though the project required such special services as an Environmental Impact Report, master planning, programming, furniture design and art selection, as well as 11 major construction contracts and several dozen minor contracts.

In the realm of manufacturing and fashion, fabric selection plays a crucial role in determining the quality and appeal of the end product. One such fabric that has gained considerable attention in recent years is tricot back fabric. Its unique structure and properties make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications in various industries. In this article, we will delve into the world of tricot back fabric and explore how it can be used to propel businesses towards success. Understanding Tricot Back Fabric: Tricot back fabric is a type of knit fabric characterized by its distinct structure and texture. It is produced on a warp knitting machine using a specific stitch configuration, resulting in a fabric with fine vertical ribs on one side and a flat, smooth surface on the other.
This dual-sided nature of tricot back fabric allows for multiple uses and enhances its versatility. Superior Comfort and Softness: One of the primary reasons why tricot back fabric has garnered a loyal following in the textile industry is its exceptional comfort and softness. The smooth side of the fabric sits next to the skin, providing a gentle contact surface that feels pleasant to touch. This unique characteristic makes tricot back fabric an excellent choice for garments that require prolonged wear, such as activewear, intimate apparel, and baby clothing. Moisture-Wicking and Breathability: Tricot back fabric possesses excellent moisture-wicking capabilities due to its knitted construction.
The fabric’s inherent ability to draw moisture away from the body helps to keep the wearer dry and comfortable, even during intense physical activities. Additionally, the knit structure allows air to circulate freely, promoting breathability and preventing overheating. This makes tricot back fabric an ideal choice for sportswear, outdoor gear, and even upholstery applications where breathability is essential. Durability and Performance: Another notable advantage of tricot back fabric is its exceptional durability and overall performance. The knit structure of the fabric provides it with inherent strength and resistance to tearing and snagging, making it well-suited for applications that demand longevity. Tricot back fabric also offers excellent color retention, resisting fading even after repeated washing and exposure to sunlight. These properties make it a preferred choice for automotive upholstery, outdoor furniture, and other heavy-duty applications.
Versatility in Design and Innovation: Tricot back fabric’s versatility extends beyond its physical properties to its adaptability in design and innovation. The smooth side of the fabric can be printed, dyed, or embellished with various patterns, enabling designers and manufacturers to create unique and visually appealing products. From vibrant sportswear to elegant lingerie, tricot back fabric opens up a world of possibilities for businesses looking to bring their creative visions to life. Conclusion: Tricot back fabric represents a game-changing material that businesses should consider incorporating into their product lines. With its combination of superior comfort, moisture-wicking properties, durability, and versatile design options, tricot back fabric offers immense potential for success across multiple industries. By harnessing the unique qualities of tricot back fabric, businesses can provide their customers with high-quality products that not only fulfill functional needs but also deliver a delightful sensory experience.

In this great presentation from TED, Dan Ariely demonstrates how easily we are guided into making specific decisions, all while being under the illusion of being in control (not me of course :).
Here are some of the highlights, excuse the crappy screenshots (the entire 17 minute video is embedded below).
In a survey among different countries the percentages of people willing to donate their organs varied quite a bit:
When checking to see why there were such differences between countries, they checked for cultural differences between countries and saw there was no correlation (Austria and Germany for example are culturally similar but have totally different percentages of organ donors).
The answer came from checking the donor form at the DMV.
In some countries (the ones with the low organ donor rate) there was a section like this in the form:
In other countries the same question would appear but with a slight variation:
(This is a classic opt-in vs. opt-out decision used in almost all online forms)
Another example he gives is in this sign up form for a newspaper:
2. is a print only subscription
3. is both web and print subscription for the exact same price as option 2
When presented with these 3 options, these were the percentages of people's choices:
So the middle option is useless (nobody chose it) and can be removed, right?
Look what happened when it was removed and only option 1 and 3 were offered:
So by offering a "useless" option, that nobody chose, the perceived value of the third (more expensive) option went up and more people chose it (because they believed they were getting more for the same price).
That "useless" option made more people pay $125 instead of $59.
Not bad, ah?

Global Expansion Marks 10th Anniversary of Leading Fine Wine Asset Manager
Cult Wines Limited, the award-winning wine asset manager, today announces record performance figures for 2017 and continued international expansion with the opening of a new office in Shanghai.
Strong financial performance
Cult Wines, which celebrates its tenth anniversary this year, has seen its annual revenues increase by 67% to £33.9m driven by growing demand for fine wine in the UK, Europe and particularly Asia, where sales increased by 123% in 2017. Asia now accounts for 33% of total revenues (up from 26% in 2016). Assets under management now stand at £65m and the firm expects total revenues to reach £55m for the forthcoming year. The firm’s client base has grown by 28% and it now manages private and trade portfolios across 71 countries.
Investors turning to fine wine to mitigate equities market correction
Cult Wines’ financial performance is supported by investment returns with the Cult Wine Investment Performance returning 10.3% over 2017, outperforming the Liv-ex recognised benchmark, which returned 5.7%1. During 2017 Cult Wines saw new clients choosing to diversify their portfolio by investing in fine wine to mitigate a potential correction in equities markets.
Given the growing importance of Asia, Cult Wines has opened an office in Shanghai to strengthen its Chinese presence, having established an office in Hong Kong in 2016. China is already the single biggest consumer of luxury goods globally with 29% of total spend across the whole Asia Pacific region and Cult Wines is seeing significant growth in rare and fine wine investment.
Tom Gearing, BBC The Apprentice (2012) finalist and Managing Director at Cult Wines, said, “Last year was a landmark for us that culminated in these robust figures, multiple award recognition, growth of our international activities and a strong platform for growth into 2018. Our new office in Shanghai will be followed by additional geographic expansion and further investment opportunities.”
Phil Gearing, Chairman of Cult Wines adds, “To post these strong financial figures underlines the essence of what we do in taking a financial market approach to fine wine investment and delivering consistent and above average returns to our growing client base. Over the last 10 years we have succeeded in building a business that balances market leading fine wine expertise and knowledge with an asset management and technical perspective and approach. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our clients, partner agents and staff for helping us achieve this.”
concluded Patrick Thornton-Smith, Commercial Director at Cult Wines.
(1) The Cult Wine Investment Performance is calculated from October 2009 by including all positions held by client by wine and vintage, individually entering the index rebased to 100 in the month of purchase and re-valued monthly using the Liv-ex Benchmark Market Price. The CW index increased 10.3% from Jan 1st – Dec 31st 2017 compared to a 5.7% gain in the Liv-ex 100 in 2017* (the industry’s leading benchmark).

History of Whareroa Guardians Community Trust Inc
The history of Whareroa goes back a long way. Up until 1850 it was used by local Māori for horticulture, most likely for growing kūmara crops. There was also a pā situated on the flat land. In 1850 Alexander MacKay leased it as a farm and later purchased it. In 1941 it was passed to the Wellington Hospital Board as a likely site for a chest hospital.
With the onset of World War 2, the land was acquired for defence purposes. In 1942 the Public Works Department built Camp Mackay on the site for United States Marine Corps training and recreation. Six years later it was taken over by the Lands and Survey Department, which developed it as a recreation and farm education park for public use. By the 1980s, it was providing school trips and open days and had a number of public walking tracks. Management of the land was transferred to Landcorp in 1987, as part of the state owned enterprise restructure that saw Lands and Survey divided into the Department of Conservation and Landcorp. The farm was closed to the public.
In 2003 rumours emerged that Landcorp was planning to sell Whareroa Farm to developers for subdivision, a plan that the local community strongly opposed.
Supported from many quarters, including the Kapiti Coast District Council, the community mounted a campaign to save the land from development. It was felt that the land, which had historical and intrinsic links to Queen Elizabeth Park, was a recreation ‘hub’ with huge tourist and recreation potential for the Kapiti Coast.
In 2005 the Guardians of Whareroa group was formed and extensive lobbying of the Government began. A protest song was recorded and the campaign became a vibrant one engaging the wider community. The campaign did not go unnoticed. The issue of the sale of public land became an election issue, and on 19 August 2005, the Government announced that it had decided to purchase the land from Landcorp for $4.5 million and transfer it to the Department of Conservation.
This was a time of great celebration. On 1 September 2005, the first public picnic at Whareroa, organised by the Guardians of Whareroa, drew a crowd of 300 people.
Since then, the Whareroa Guardians Community Trust, using grants from the Ministry of the Environment and WWF-NZ Habitat Protection Fund, Tindall Foundation, has worked on substantial bush and stream restoration projects involving over 200 volunteers and 30,000 plants. This is ongoing and the community is invited to join in this activity.
In 2010 the Department of Conservation commenced the development of the reserve with parking, an information bay, tracks within the farm and picnic areas. They are working with the Kapiti Mountain Bike Club and horseriders as well as the Trust to develop appropriate recreational opportunities.
In March 2011 the Whareroa Guardians’ volunteers built a significant stone wall at the entrance.
On 30th April 2011 Whareroa Farm was opened for public use as a recreation reserve with a major celebration.
The Department of Conservation and the Trust are working together to develop this wonderful property into a first-class recreation and educational nature facility.


Yellowstone is frequently referred to as a land of fire and ice, but to the casual summer observer this may seem only half true. Visiting in the winter, however, is like setting foot onto another planet.
The places that shape us, permeate our memories, and inform our passions are many and varied. What does it mean to call a place home? What does it mean to connect with a place? What makes a spot special?
The AmeriCorps members are rock stars in this community. Their arrival at the beginning of each season breathes new life into Coyote Canyon, and their passion and creativity throughout their terms of service add quality to the student experience here at TSS.

Attachment as a Collective Resource: Attachment Networks During Middle Childhood in a Cameroonian Clan
|Becke, Sophia Daphne
|Attachment theory is commonly used to investigate children's psychosocial development. To demonstrate cultural variability and to advance the idea of attachment as a collective resource, we assessed children's attachment networks during middle childhood among the Nseh, a Cameroonian clan with distinct concepts of family and childhood. Using photo elicitation interviews, we used an exploratory approach to investigate the structural and functional composition of these networks and to generate a comprehensive overview. Participants were 11 children (six girls and five boys), aged 6 to 10 years. Children took photos of individuals who were important to them and with whom they felt safe, comfortable, and at ease. Then, in follow-up interviews they were asked to characterize their attachment figures on sociostructural dimensions and to elaborate how those individuals made them feel comfortable and safe. Transcripts of the interviews were coded using ethnographic strategies. Initial descriptive codes were analyzed concerning key terms, semantic relationships, and their context of meaning, before assigning higher level codes to generate distinct main categories of functionality. Children described attachment networks that were structurally adapted to concepts of social ties and interactional norms of the clan. Concerning their functionality, children differentiated between peers, responsible for overt emotional needs, and adults, providing nutritional care. We conclude that this pattern reflects sources of security and concepts of care of the distinct developmental environment. We discuss the importance of context-specific and comprehensive approaches to attachment, moving beyond Eurocentric monotropic concepts, with the goal of developing a complex understanding of childhood across ecocultural settings.

A Multicultural Chameleon; Actor's Experience Spawns Polyglot Cast of Characters
Published: October 9, 1999
(Page 2 of 2)
They listened to Nirvana and Lynyrd Skynyrd. They went to the mall. They couldn't tell an Italian from a Puerto Rican. ''Here I was in North Carolina, and I couldn't even pass for white!'' said Mr. Hoch, who dropped out of college in less than two years, returned to New York and began writing his own material.
It is worth noting that the people at Stratosphere Entertainment, the distributor for ''Jails,'' the movie, describes Mr. Hoch's roots as in ''the projects in Brooklyn,'' which is the kind of market it is seeking for the film.
Issues of authenticity are well understood by Mr. Hoch. ''It's not cool to live in the suburbs, ride your skateboard,'' Mr. Hoch says with equal parts irony and empathy. ''It's cool to be poor; it's cool to be in jail.''
It is hard not to notice white children today -- or the children of Pakistani immigrants, or Colombians -- mimicking black language and style, buying millions of dollars in rap music, lionizing the black ghetto, as they imagine it.
Of course, that sort of impulse is not altogether new. Which is why when Norman Mailer saw ''Whiteboys'' recently, he wondered whether Mr. Hoch had read ''The White Negro,'' his own 1957 treatise about white hipsters schooled in black style. Mr. Hoch had not. But in ''Whiteboys,'' Mr. Mailer, now 76, recognized himself, a young man going to rent parties in Harlem. ''I'm not surprised it's happening again,'' he said.
In the improbable latter-day attempts at passing, Mr. Belcon, who wrote the ''Whiteboys'' screenplay with Mr. Hoch, says he sees a glimmer of hope. ''I think it's about not being complacent, not accepting what people tell you you're supposed to be,'' Mr. Belcon, now 29, said. ''It's a cross between rebellion and admiration.''
Mr. Hoch has turned those everyday acts of passing into his metier, literally trading caps, accents, gestures to conjure a gestalt of New York personalities of all shades. But it is precisely his yen to play characters who are not white that has opened him to scrutiny; is his performance, critics ask, a kind of minstrelsy?
Dael Orlandersmith, an actress who does one-woman shows, says although she knows that Mr. Hoch mines his characters from the world he grew up in, she is still troubled by the way white audiences react to his performances: ''Here's this white cat hanging out with black and Hispanic cats. Isn't that cool?'' Ms. Orlandersmith, who is black, says.
''I think his intention is good, but I think people aren't listening to his intention,'' she says.
Mr. Hoch insists that his characters are the New Yorkers most familiar to him. The teen-ager who is shot and crippled by the police in ''Jails'' is based on a youth in Williamsburg. The distressed Jewish mother whose prejudices are challenged by her bohemian son in ''Some People'' is a melange, according to his mother, of herself and her Aunt Ida.
''These ARE my people,'' Mr. Hoch says. ''Your people are a combination of ancestry and where you live -- your geography.
''That community,'' he adds, ''is not the white community, it's not the Jamaican community, it's not the Puerto Rican community, it's not the black community. It's the community of all of us. I'll be the last one to say my community is the black community. I'll also be the last one to say Abner Louima and Anthony Baez are not my people.''
Photos: Danny Hoch, actor, comic and one-man show, at home in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He sees hip-hop as a cultural glue. (Chester Higgins Jr./The New York Times); Mr. Hoch last year in his one-man show ''Jails, Hospitals and Hip-Hop.'' He assumes an un-Seinfeldian range of roles. (Paula Court)(pg. B1); From left, Danny Hoch, Eugene Byrd and Bonz Malone in the film ''Whiteboys.'' Mr. Hoch's character aspires to be a gangster rapper. (Fox Searchlight Pictures)(pg. B7)


There's this mexican restaurant near me that makes the best tacos. tacos, like i've never tasted anywhere before. they say it's a california mexican restaurant and i don't really know what that means but the tacos are divine.
the ground beef they use is super greasy, so much so that it just seeps through the shell into the wax paper that they bring them out on. i can't detect any sort of spice in the meat either, which is strange. it's just a messy hard taco. i was wondering though, if anyone has any suggestions on how to get similar results with ground beef. whenever i make my taco meat, it comes out dry and without a lot of flavor and when i add cumin or the chili powder, it just ends up tasting fake. i'd really like to be able to make a good taco for cinco de mayo, so if anyone has any suggestions, i'd love to hear them.

Absolut Spirits Co., part of Sweden's Vin & Sprit, the world's No. 6 spirits company, and Pernod Ricard USA, the domestic arm of Groupe Pernod Ricard, the world's fourth-largest liquor concern, will continue to coexist at TBWA, at least for now.
"There have been discussions, and so far it's not presented a problem," said Absolut President-CEO Carl Horton. "Yes, they're both at TBWA. Yes, they both exist there, but there have been precautions and guidelines."
Pernod Ricard executives said they had no plans to change agencies, with some earlier saying the French-based company was satisfied the agency had erected sufficient firewalls. Absolut will continue at TBWA's New York office. Pernod Ricard will be serviced out of a separate New York office of G1 Worldwide, a joint venture between TBWA Worldwide and Japan's Hakuhodo, according to executives close to the situation.
The specter of conflict first arose last December with the dissolution of Seagram Spirits & Wine Co. following parent Vivendi Universal's decision to focus its portfolio on entertainment. That led to speculation of a review or shuffle because TBWA handled Absolut vodka-which Seagram had marketed in the U.S.- as well as several other Seagram brands that were acquired by Pernod Ricard, including Chivas Regal and Glenlivet.
It was thought TBWA, which turned Absolut and its bottle into an icon after landing the account in 1981, might part with Pernod Ricard, whose highest-profile brands prior to the Seagram deal had been Wild Turkey bourbon and Campari liqueur. Absolut last year received $31 million in measured media, while Pernod Ricard predecessor Austin Nichols & Co. laid out just $6.6 million, according to Taylor Nelson Sofres' CMR. Pernod's former Seagram brands received about $20 million.
Even though the two liquor marketers compete for the same drinkers, the TBWA/Absolut/Pernod Ricard troika appears to be working because the marketers do not consider each other threats.
Absolut's biggest U.S. property is its vodka, while Pernod Ricard's only U.S. vodka is the considerably lower-brow Wodka Wyborowa. Last year, Polish vodka Wyborowa sold about 10,000 cases in the U.S., compared with Absolut's 4.7 million cases, according to spirits industry publication Impact.
Pernod Ricard's other primary agency is Publicis Groupe's Saatchi & Saatchi.
In January, Pernod Ricard consolidated its $30 million media planning and buying account at Aegis Group's Carat, New York. Much of Seagram's media work had been at Grey Global Group's MediaCom, which won Diageo's $150 million U.S. beer and spirits business in September (AA, Jan. 7).

ALL Multi-Session Course: Square Dancing in Three Easy Steps (All Puns Intended)
April 27, 2017 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Square Dancing in Three Easy Steps (All Puns Intended)
With Ann Fallon
Date: Three sessions on Thursdays, April 27, May 4, 11
Location: Talbot Senior Center, 400 Brookletts Avenue, Easton
Registration is required to Allison Speight at firstname.lastname@example.org or 410-745-4941
Whether you’re new to square dancing or a seasoned professional, this is the event for you. No previous dance experience is necessary. We’ll explore traditional American folk dances such as squares, circles, and longways set dances in the spirit of the “barn dance,” where neighbors would come together to enjoy music, dance, food, and good company. Everyone is welcome. All dances are taught and called with no fancy footwork required. We will use recorded music for the first two dances and a live band for the third dance party!
Bring a partner or come by yourself; it works either way. There will be plenty of dance partners at this party. Frequent partner changes are encouraged.
Wear smooth-soled shoes so you can glide across the floor. And if you want, don your jeans, stetson, and boots if you have them. Bring whatever you wish to drink and eat.
Members $30 | Non-Members $45


Hi, y’all! My name is Sarah, and I am 29 years old. Two years ago, at 4’10” and 185 lbs, I made the decision to change my life through health and fitness. I was sick of the back pain, knee pain, chronic heartburn and acid reflux, and everything else that came with being obese. My goal was to be at least around 115 lbs but I didn’t have enough time to go to the gym enough this is why I decided to try Garcinia Cambogia XT And Natural Cleanse Plus.
What Is Garcinia Cambogia XT?
Garcinia Cambogia XT is a appetite suppressant that prevent fat from being made and moves towards glycogen which is an energy source that helps burn more fat. If you have problems with emotional eating this will help you stop these craves for food. Also if you are looking for a supplement that will help you continue to lose weight after your workout sessions this will do the job. You can see all the benefits of the Garcinia Cambogia fruit Here- What Is Garcinia Cambogia.
What Is Natural Cleanse Plus?
Dose Garcinia Cambogia XT Really work?
Alot of people have been asking me if Garcinia Cambogia XT And Natural Cleanse Plus really work. The answer to this is yes but to get the full potential of them I highly recommend you to do some kind of exercise with that. If you don’t have a workout or diet plan you must know that by ordering Garcinia Cambogia XT you will receive some extra bonuses that will sort this out for you. You can see the Bonuses on the picture below-
Do I need to take Garcinia Cambogia XT and Natural Cleanse Plus together or I can order only one?
You can always order only one at a time but for faster results I would recommend you to order both at a time. On top of that I’m not sure how long their trial offer will last so if you don’t wanna pay the 89$ price per bottle I recommend you to get them now on their official website below-
Garcinia Cambogia XT And Natural Cleanse Plus Before and after pictures.
You must take pictures of you instead of relying on a scale to have a accurate measurement of your progress, especially if you are doing weight lifting exercises. By replacing fat with muscles you will think that you are not losing weight when actually you are. It’s just that your muscles can become heavier than your grease. Taking pictures every month will be more accurate than your scale. You can see my before and after pictures below-
This is me after 1 year of workout and combining Garcinia Cambogia XT and Natural Cleanse Plus. I was 185 lbs when I started my journey and I’ve hit a plateau at 120 lbs. I just got started doing some crossfit to be able to hit my ideal weight. When I first got started I was losing around 10lbs per month until I hit my plateau. You can see another picture of me before and after below-
As you can see these supplements really work but you will need to follow the workout tips that you will get with the bonuses you’ll get when you order Garcinia Cambogia XT.
If I can do it anybody can do it. All you need is the will and the perseverance.

Oligomeric ricinoleic acid preparation promoted by an efficient and recoverable Bronsted acidic ionic liquid.
ABSTRACT: Raw material from biomass and green preparation processes are the two key features for the development of green products. As a bio-lubricant in metalworking fluids, estolides of ricinoleic acid are considered as the promising substitute to mineral oil with a favorable viscosity and viscosity index. Thus, an efficient and sustainable synthesis protocol is urgently needed to make the product really green. In this work, an environment-friendly Brønsted acidic ionic liquid (IL) 1-butanesulfonic acid diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene dihydrogen phosphate ([HSO3-BDBU]H2PO4) was developed as the efficient catalyst for the production of oligomeric ricinoleic acid from ricinoleic acid under solvent-free conditions. The reaction parameters containing reaction temperature, vacuum degree, amount of catalyst and reaction time were optimized and it was found that the reaction under the conditions of 190 °C and 50 kPa with 15 wt % of the [HSO3-BDBU]H2PO4 related to ricinoleic acid can afford a qualified product with an acid value of 51 mg KOH/g (which corresponds to the oligomerization degree of 4) after 6 h. Furthermore, the acid value of the product can be adjusted by regulating the reaction time, implying this protocol can serve as a versatile method to prepare the products with different oligomerization degree and different applications. The other merit of this protocol is the facile product separation by stratification and decantation ascribed to the immiscibility of the product and catalyst at room temperature. It is also worth mentioning that the IL catalyst can be used at least for five cycles with high catalytic activity. As a result, the protocol based on the IL catalyst, i.e. [HSO3-BDBU]H2PO4 shows great potential in industrial production of oligomeric ricinoleic acid from ricinoleic acid.
Project description:Without using any toxic or hazardous reagent, ligand, acid, transition metal catalyst, additives/promoters and organic solvent, green Knoevenagel condensation and tandem Knoevenagel-Michael reactions have been successfully carried out by using chickpea leaf exudates as a naturally sourced Bronsted acid type bio-catalyst. The reaction proceeds in neat chickpea leaf exudates at room temperature in aqueous conditions in very short reaction times, and therefore, it is an evergreen and environmentally sound alternative to the existing protocols for benzopyran synthesis. In comparison to the conventional methods, this synthetic pathway complies with several key requirements of green chemistry principles such as the utilization of biodegradable catalyst obtained from renewable feedstock, auxiliary aqueous conditions, along with waste prevention. The same protocol was also extended to the synthesis of 2H-xanthene-1,8-diones by condensation of aromatic aldehydes with dimedone achieving excellent yields. Thus, the reported protocol offers an attractive option because of its ecological safety, environmental acceptance, sustainability, low-cost straightforward work-up procedure and with excellent values of green chemistry metrics as compared with other reported methods.
Project description:1. Ricinoleic acid is shown to be synthesized in the immature castor bean seed only after 3-4 weeks from the time of fertilization. 2. Synthesis occurs both in the isolated embryo and the endosperm. 3. Linoleic acid does not act as precursor of ricinoleic acid in the isolated bean embryo. 4. Oleic acid is shown to be the direct precursor of ricinoleic acid. 5. The reaction does not use molecular oxygen. This suggests that ricinoleic acid is not a precursor of linoleic acid.
Project description:SmCl3 (20 mol%) has been used as an efficient catalyst for reaction between aromatic aldehydes and 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione at 120°C to give 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene derivatives in high yield. The same reaction in water, at room temperature gave only the open chain analogue of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene. Use of eco-friendly green Lewis acid, readily available catalyst and easy isolation of the product makes this a convenient method for the synthesis of either of the products.
Project description:Different inhibition types of the saturation kinetics involving a synthesized model complex, [Bu4N]3[MoVIO2(mnt)2] (E) (where mnt2- = 1,2-dicyanoethylenedithiolate), and HSO3- as the substrate (S) by structurally similar anions SO4(2-), H2PO4- and H2PO3- have been shown for the first time in relevance to the reductive half reaction of the native enzyme sulphite oxidase. SO4(2-) acts as a competitive inhibitor. The mixed-type non-competitive inhibition by H2PO4- and the sigmoidal-type inhibition by H2PO3- are explained by a diamond-configuration random-order model. This involves a random binding sequence of the substrate and the inhibitor, and forms, in addition to two binary complexes [enzyme-substrate (ES) and enzyme-inhibitor (EI)], one enzyme-substrate-inhibitor-type ternary complex (ESI) by participation of at least one more binding site in addition to the catalytic site. This is possible in the present case only by co-ordination enhancement of molybdenum in E. This co-ordination expansion is brought about by nucleophilic attack of the substrate or the inhibitor at the molybdenum, forming a hepta-coordinated binary complex with the generation of an oxoanionic functional site, called the allosteric site. Analysis of the experimental data suggests that the inhibition by H2PO4- is due to the mechanism following either equilibrium conditions or a combination of steady-state and equilibrium conditions. With H2PO3-, the inhibition is due to the mechanism following the steady-state conditions. It is also shown that the ternary complex involving the enzyme, substrate and H2PO4- or H2PO3- is productive, but at a lower rate than that of the enzyme-substrate binary complex. Mixed-type inhibition with H2PO4- is actually of the type called "partially mixed competitive and non-competitive' as the inhibitor binds both to the catalytic site and to the allosteric site. The sigmoidal-type inhibition by H2PO3- is similar to heterotropic allosteric effect of mixed V,K type with the distinction, however, that the significance of co-operativity in this case is of kinetic importance only.
Project description:Herein, a practical and mild method for the deoxygenation of a wide range of benzylic aldehydes and ketones is described, which utilizes heterogeneous Pd/C as the catalyst together with the green hydride source, polymethylhydrosiloxane. The developed catalytic protocol is scalable and robust, as exemplified by the deoxygenation of ethyl vanillin, which was performed on a 30?mmol scale in an open-to-air setup using only 0.085?mol?% Pd/C catalyst to furnish the corresponding deoxygenated product in 93?% yield within 3?hours at room temperature. Furthermore, the Pd/C catalyst was shown to be recyclable up to 6 times without any observable decrease in efficiency and it exhibited low metal leaching under the reaction conditions.
Project description:Stable, catalytically active palladium nanoparticles of various average diameters (1.9-7.4 nm) have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction, spectroscopy, and microscopy techniques to demonstrate remarkable size-dependent and renewed catalytic activity toward the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction in green protocol. The catalytic activity is found to depend on the amount of the reducing agent, stabilizer-precursor ratio, solvent composition, and aryl halides used. The product obtained by this reaction is characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and IR spectroscopy analyses. A newly developed kinetic equation illustrates that while the catalyst particles of the lowest dimension are gradually exposed to the reactants and hence activated due to partial removal of capping polymer from the catalyst surface, others are deactivated due to agglomeration during the progress of the reaction, as conformed by the microscopic profiles of the used and unused catalysts.
Project description:We describe the synthesis of silver loaded on zirconia and its use as an efficient catalyst for a one-pot three-component reaction to synthesize 11 indenopyrimidine derivatives, of which 7 are new compounds. The procedure involves substituted benzaldehydes, indane-1,3-dione, and guanidinium hydrochloride, with ethanol as solvent. The proposed green protocol at room temperature is simple and efficient, giving excellent yields (90?96%) in short reaction times (<30 min). The protocol works well according to the green chemistry principles with respect to high atom economy, no need for column separation, and reusability of the catalyst, which are attractive features. XRD, TEM, SEM, and BET analysis were used to characterize the catalyst materials.
Project description:The optimization and kinetics of the ring-opening reaction of an epoxidized biodiesel (epoxidized rapeseed oil methyl ester) (EBD) with 2-ethyl hexanol (2-EH) were studied. The determined optimum conditions were 4:1 2-EH/oil molar ratio, 90 °C, 18 h, and 7 wt % of Amberlyst D001 (dry) catalyst; the product's oxirane oxygen content was 0.081% with 38.32 mm²/s viscosity at 40 °C. The catalyst retained its high catalytic power after recycling five times. Furthermore, the determined non-catalyzed activation energy was 76 kJ·mol-1 and 54 kJ·mol-1 with the D001 resin catalyst. The product's chemical structure was investigated through FT-IR and ¹H NMR. The viscosity, flash point, pour point, and anti-wear properties of the product were improved compared with those of epoxidized biodiesel.
Project description:A highly efficient and recyclable catalyst, cerium-immobilized silicotungstic acid nanoparticle-impregnated zirconia (Ce@STANPs/ZrO2), has been synthesized. The catalytic activity of Ce@STANPs/ZrO2 was investigated for the first time in multicomponent synthesis of isatin-based imidazoles under microwave irradiation in water. Ce@STANPs/ZrO2 was used for C=O bond activation in overall reaction to synthesize isatin-based imidazoles. The structure of catalyst was confirmed by characterization techniques, such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/energy dispersive X-ray, elemental mapping, transmission electron microscopy, ?-potential and diffraction light scattering, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis, temperature-programmed desorption-NH3, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) analyses. The recovered catalyst was found to be efficient up to seventh cycle and was confirmed by FTIR, SEM, XRD, EPR, and ICP-AES analyses. The advantages of the present protocol are recyclability of catalyst, green reaction conditions, excellent yield (94%) of the products, shorter reaction time period (5-7 min), and clean reaction profile.
Project description:The optimum conditions to produce palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD)-derived-methyl esters via esterification have been demonstrated with the aid of the response surface methodology (RSM) with central composite rotatable design in the presence of heterogeneous acid catalyst. The effect of four reaction variables, reaction time (30-110 min), reaction temperature (30-70°C), catalyst concentration (1-3 wt.%) and methanol : PFAD molar ratio (3 : 1-11 : 1), were investigated. The reaction time had the most influence on the yield response, while the interaction between the reaction time and the catalyst concentration, with an F-value of 95.61, contributed the most to the esterification reaction. The model had an R 2-value of 0.9855, suggesting a fit model, which gave a maximum yield of 95%. The fuel properties of produced PFAD methyl ester were appraised based on the acid value, iodine value, cloud and pour points, flash point, kinematic viscosity, density, ash and water contents and were compared with biodiesel EN 14214 and ASTM D-6751 standard limits. The PFAD methyl ester was further blended with petro-diesel from B0, B3, B5, B10, B20 and B100, on a volumetric basis. The blends were characterized by TGA, DTG and FTIR. With an acid value of 0.42 (mg KOH g-1), iodine value of 63 (g.I2/100 g), kinematic viscosity of 4.31 (mm2 s-1), the PFAD methyl ester has shown good fuel potential, as all of its fuel properties were within the permissible international standards for biodiesel.

|ON THE INFLUENCE OF DIFFUSION STABILIZATION IN OLDROYD-B FLUID FLOW SIMULATIONS
|Finite Element Method
|In Proceedings Topical Problems of Fluid Mechanics 2020
|This work presents some numerical tests of finite element solution of incompressible Oldroyd-B fluid flows. The effect of numerical stabilization using arti cial stress diffusion is investigated
in detail. The limits of Weissenberg number We for which is possible to obtain the numerical solution were studied depending on the Reynolds number Re and the diffusion parameter.
Series of numerical tests was performed for steady two-dimensional Oldroyd-B fluid flow in corrugated channel (tube). The numerical results clearly proved the advantage (higher attainable We) of stabilized numerical method over the classical formulation without the arti ficial stress diffusion.

The Supreme Court of the United States has expressly recognized that, under the Due Process Clause of Fourteenth Amendment and the Compulsory Process and Confrontation Clauses of the Sixth Amendment, a criminal defendant must be given “a meaningful opportunity to present a complete defense” -i.e., a right to make a full defense, and tell his or her story, by presenting relevant and probative evidence that supports his or her case. See, e.g. California v. Trombetta, 467 U.S. 479, 485 (1984). See also Crane, 476 U,S, at 689
Rule 405(b) of Alabama Rules of Evidence states: “In cases in which character or a trait of character of a person is an essential element of a charge, claim, or defense, proof may also be made of specific instances of that person’s conduct.” The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals has previously ruled that Rule 405(b) “authorizes the admission of testimony concerning specific instances of a victim’s violent conduct in a case where the victim’s violent character is essential to a defendant’s claim of self-defense.” Clancy v. State, 886 So. 2d 166, 169 (Ala. Crim. App. 2003)
Prior specific acts actually are proper evidence of the reasonableness of a defendant’s actions and his “state-of-mind” in a self-defense case. Williams v. State, 938 So. 2d 440, 448 (Ala. Crim. App. 2005)
The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals has even found that evidence of a general reputation for violence, blood-thirstiness or dangerousness, much less specific acts toward the accused, is admissible as having probative value on elements of the doctrine of self- defense. “Evidence of this type is also admissible for the purpose of showing a reasonable apprehension of immediately pending danger which would justify the accused in striking more quickly, under the circumstances prevailing at the time of the homicide.” Brooks v. State, 263 Ala. 386, 389, 82 So. 2d 553, 555 (1955) Alabama law even recognizes the right of one who has received mere threats to “act more promptly and on slighter overt act or demonstration than it would in the absence of such proof”. Raines v. State, 455 So. 2d 967, 971 (Ala. Crim. App. 1984)
Also, evidence of “physical and emotional injuries received by [a Defendant] in the prior difficulties” was relevant and probative on the issue of state-of-mind “by reason of continuing pain from injuries suffered by him.” Dickerson v. State, 360 So. 2d 1045, 1053 (Ala. Crim. App. 1978)
However, Alabama also fully allows expert testimony of battered syndrome.
“[E]xpert testimony on Battered Woman Syndrone can be admitted to assist the jury in understanding the syndrome, and also to help the jury determine whether the defendant had an honest belief that she was in imminent danger, as that determination related to a claim of self-defense.
Harrington v. State, 858 So. 2d 278, 294 (Ala. Crim. App. 2002) Alabama courts have actually elaborated extensively on the policy behind these principles of admissibility of testimony, both lay and expert, on the effects of being a battered woman. This Court in Bonner quoted, at length, State v. Kelly, a New Jersey case:
What the expert could state was that defendant had the battered-woman’s syndrome, and could explain that syndrome in detail, relating its characteristics to defendant, but only to enable the jury better to determine the honesty and reasonableness of defendant’s belief. Depending on its content, the expert’s testimony might also enable the jury to find that the battered wife, because of the prior beatings, numerous beatings, as often as once a week, for seven years, from the day they were married to the day he died, is particularly able to predict accurately the likely extent of violence in any attack on her. That conclusion could significantly affect the jury’s evaluation of the reasonableness of defendant’s fear for her life.
Accordingly, lay and expert testimony regarding the history of abuse and the resulting behavioral responses are admissible and relevant in self-defense cases to provide the jury with a proper understanding, unencumbered by prevailing myths concerning battered women, of the circumstances surrounding the reasonableness of the defendant’s actions. Alabama case law makes such evidence admissible and relevant to the state-of-mind necessary for the defense of self-defense.
Many states have actually enacted statutes to specifically allow such evidence. This issue is so important that the Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals made an unusual request of the Legislature.
“In light of these and similar tragic events, a reevaluation of Alabama’s body of law surrounding self-defense and battered spouse syndrome is necessary. It has become increasingly clear that leaving an abusive relationship may not, in fact, mean that the victim’s safety is no longer threatened. As our own cases show, domestic violence often escalates to deadly levels. . .The difficult situation presented to this Court in [battered woman cases] can be avoided in future cases if the Alabama Legislature seizes the opportunity to address this important issue, as the legislatures in other jurisdictions have done. We encourage the Legislature to address the existing body of law on self-defense as it relates to battered spouse syndrome.“
So far, the Legislature has not taken up this call.
