Joao/Holanda - I don't necessarily agree with your views, but you have a right to express them. This would be a boring site if all the comments shared the same opinion.
Philip Benevides - Nice article...a trip down memory lane. Hoping this squad provides the same kind of magic.
My own opinion - It think going into the tournament with a loss is a good thing. No false confidence. They go in knowing they have to be at their best and more importantly, focused. You never know in football, just ask the Chelsea fans.

I have an agent/service, j3pflynn_aciral0, that has stopped delivering statistics. I have entirely uninstalled it, deleted any remaining traces of it and re-installed it, and still no update(except a bizarre 19 point update the other day). When I open the GUI agent, it seems to be operating correctly. It says it exchanges files with server, then runs statistics updater, then proceeds with pings, traceroutes and Keepalive tasks.
But if I watch active connection activity in Comodo Firewall, I can see that during the "exchanging files with server" and "running statistics updater" periods, javaw.exe is in listening mode only, and nothing goes out until it starts to ping. The behavior seems to be the same with the service; though I can't see the point in the process the service is in, "java.exe" and "wrapper.exe" stay in listening mode until pings appear to begin under java.exe.
Any thoughts? Any files I can send to help figure it out?

I'm for sure going to the 9:00pm showing. Already have my ticket. Hopefully this day at work will fly by, I'm not too optimistic about that happening.
I'm for sure going to the 9:00pm showing. Already have my ticket. Hopefully this day at work will fly by, I'm not too optimistic about that happening.
First off ...Hell yes Im going to the 9pm in reald 3d and its gunna be epic....
"How Come the Decepticons have all the cool shit"
my original post in this thread seems soooooooo long ago now, time is going so slow and people keep telling me the time to annoy me cos im soo hyped by this film :head
4hrs 15 to go :borat
Do you think it will be hard to get a good seat? The 9PM show will only be available at 1 auditorium. They will be showing Cars 2 right before and then clean up and open up for seating at 8:30pm. Most theaters I called are only showing the 9PM on one screen. What should I do? Is not like midnight where everybody is there for that one movie.
Evening/weekend shows are almost always crowded. Just be sure to get there extra early for parking & seating. The wait will be worth it I'm certain!
I'd say just show up a min. of one hour early. Most theaters will start a line, especially if it's a movie that's expecting to be sold out. And if there isn't a line, make sure if a lot of people start showing up for that showing that you get an employee to start one so you can guarentee yourself a good seat.
It all depends on your area, and the intrest in the movie in that area.
Show up at least 1 1/2 hours early dude.
Optimus: One shall stand- one shall fall. Megatron: You still fight for the weak- that's why you lose!
I'll be there at 9(show at 10:30). I showed up an hour early for RotF at midnight and was at least 100 people back.
I arrived at the movie theater. There is no line! Too early. Now what Am I gonna do till 8:30pm?:lame
At theatre 2 1/2 hours early 4th in line!!!
Still first in line and nobody else here. They opening for seating in half an hour.
Made it! First one in. Got my favorite spot to sit!
"My story is of many thousands, and the world will not suffer if it ends too soon."
Sitting in the theatre right now. Sooo excited!!
"Drivers dont pick the cars. Cars pick the drivers"
I'm going tomorrow night :borat
I Fight Giant Robots
Just drove past my local IMAX theater and there's a whole line of people!!! It goes all the way outside!! Obviously it's for Cars 2 right? Jk, there's a good 80+ people in there!
"My story is of many thousands, and the world will not suffer if it ends too soon."
Yeah my theater filled up completely, it was pretty sweet. And they even cheered and clapped a lot. It was mega-fun.
Just got back from the 9:00 PM IMAX showing. AMAZING!!!! SIMPLY INCREDIBLE! Thank you Mr. Bay for an incredible ride! I can't wait to see it again!
Yes! I cant wait to see the box office numbers. The 9 show was packed, and when we were walking back out, the lobby was packed shoulder to shoulder. I love the energy in the theatres when these movies come out.

Russia Premier League
Zenit Petersburg v Rubin Kazan
draw ()
This is one of the biggest matches in Russia. Zenit Petersburg against Rubin Kazan. Home team is the best team in the country in last some years. Luciano Spaletti make a big revolution in Zenit's game. This Italian coach make one fantastic game-style and now his team make a big success. I think that in this match Zenit will be the better team, but maybe here have a chance for a draw for Rubin. Away team have a strong defence and now they will show this. I think that Zenit Petersburg will win only a point in this match. This match will ends with draw.

Suresh Raina worked his way to a superb 63 and Mahendra Singh Dhoni played an explosive 16-ball 45-run knock as Chennai Super Kings strengthened their position at the top of the table with a 37-run win over Pune Warriors in an IPL match, in Pune on Tuesday.
Raina anchored the innings with his 50-ball knock and skipper Dhoni provided the late fireworks as Chennai overcame a slow start to post a challenging 164 for three.
Paceman Mohit Sharma then rocked the Pune top-order in a fiery spell in which he dismissed Aaron Finch (15), T Suman (0) and Yuvraj Singh (5) from which the hosts never recovered and managed just 127 for nine.
Finch was caught behind and Suman was trapped in successive balls in Mohit's first over. He returned to scalp Yuvraj. Raina's electric fielding resulted in run out of Robin Uthappa (10) which left the hosts reeling at 43 for four inside fifth over.
As if that was not enough, Luke Wright was run out in an unfortunate manner when Steve Smith played a solid straight drive but the ball touched Albie Morkel's foot before hitting the stumps and Wright was caught out of crease.
A terrible mix up meant that Abhihek Nayar too was runout. Smith handed back a simple catch to Ravindra Jadeja a few overs later and with that wicket Pune were on their way to their eighth defeat from 10 matches.
Earlier, Raina showed a lot of maturity while batting as he did the spade work along with S Badrinath (34) while Dhoni batted amazingly in his side's remarkable recovery later on.
After losing Michael Hussey (5) and Wriddhiman Sahara (13) early, Raina and Badrinath steadied the ship with a 75-run stand for the third wicket.
But it was 61-run unbeaten partnership between Raina and Dhoni for the fourth wicket that spoilt all the good work Pune bowlers had done earlier.
It rained fours and sixes when Dhoni batted as Chennai collected 50 runs in the last four overs. Dhoni punished hapless bowlers with seven boundaries including three sixes, the last one coming off the last ball.
Raina helped himself with five fours and a six.

Family: | Amaryllidaceae |
Subfamily: | Allioideae |
Genus: | Allium |

Allium cepa L. |
The onion (Allium cepa), also known as the bulb onion or common onion, is used as a vegetable and is the most widely cultivated species of the genus Allium. This genus also contains several other species variously referred to as onions and cultivated for food, such as the Japanese bunching onion (A. fistulosum), Egyptian onion (A. ×proliferum), and Canada onion (A. canadense). The name "wild onion" is applied to a number of Allium species but A. cepa is exclusively known from cultivation and its wild original form is not known. The onion is most frequently a biennial or a perennial plant, but is usually treated as an annual and harvested in its first growing season.
The onion plant has a fan of hollow, bluish-green leaves and the bulb at the base of the plant begins to swell when a certain day-length is reached. In the autumn the foliage dies down and the outer layers of the bulb become dry and brittle. The crop is harvested and dried and the onions are ready for use or storage. The crop is prone to attack by a number of pests and diseases, particularly the onion fly, the onion eelworm and various fungi that cause rotting. Some varieties of A. cepa such as shallots and potato onions produce multiple bulbs.
Onions are cultivated and used around the world. As a foodstuff they are usually served cooked, as a vegetable or part of a prepared savoury dish, but can also be eaten raw or used to make pickles or chutneys. They are pungent when chopped and contain certain chemical substances which irritate the eyes. Consumption is believed to benefit health in that onions contain phenolics and flavonoids that have potential anti-inflammatory, anti-cholesterol, anticancer and antioxidant properties.
Contents |
Taxonomy and etymology[edit]
The onion (Allium cepa), also known as the bulb onion[1] or common onion,[2] is the most widely cultivated species of the genus Allium.[3][4] It was first officially described by Carolus Linnaeus in his 1753 work Species Plantarum.[5] A number of synonyms have appeared in its taxonomic history:
- Allium cepa var. aggregatum - G. Don
- Allium cepa var. bulbiferum - Regel
- Allium cepa var. cepa - Linnaeus
- Allium cepa var. multiplicans - L.H. Bailey
- Allium cepa var. proliferum - (Moench) Regel
- Allium cepa var. solaninum - Alef
- Allium cepa var. viviparum - (Metz) Mansf.[6][7]
Allium cepa is known exclusively from cultivation,[8] but related wild species occur in Central Asia. The most closely related species include Allium vavilovii (Popov & Vved.) and Allium asarense (R.M. Fritsch & Matin) from Iran.[9] However, Zohary and Hopf state that "there are doubts whether the A. vavilovii collections tested represent genuine wild material or only feral derivatives of the crop."[10]
The vast majority of cultivars of A. cepa belong to the "common onion group" (A. cepa var. cepa) and are usually referred to simply as "onions". The Aggregatum Group of cultivars (A. cepa var. aggregatum) includes both shallots and potato onions.[11]
The genus Allium also contains a number of other species variously referred to as onions and cultivated for food, such as the Japanese bunching onion (A. fistulosum), Egyptian onion (A. ×proliferum), and Canada onion (A. canadense).[2]
The onion plant (Allium cepa) is unknown in the wild but has been grown and selectively bred in cultivation for at least 7,000 years. It is a biennial plant but is usually grown as an annual. Modern varieties typically grow to a height of 15 to 45 cm (6 to 18 in). The leaves are blueish-green and grow alternately in a flattened, fan-shaped swathe. They are fleshy, hollow and cylindrical, with one flattened side. They are at their broadest about a quarter of the way up beyond which they taper towards a blunt tip. The base of each leaf is a flattened, usually white sheath that grows out of a basal disc. From the underside of the disc, a bundle of fibrous roots extends for a short way into the soil. As the onion matures, food reserves begin to accumulate in the leaf bases and the bulb of the onion swells.[12]
In the autumn the leaves die back and the outer scales of the bulb become dry and brittle, and this is the time at which the crop is normally harvested. If left in the soil over winter, the growing point in the middle of the bulb begins to develop in the spring. New leaves appear and a long, stout, hollow stem expands, topped by a bract protecting a developing inflorescence. The flower-head takes the form of a globular umbel of white flowers with parts in sixes. The seeds are glossy black and triangular in cross section.[12]
Historical use[edit]
Bulbs from the onion family are thought to have been used as a food source for millennia. In Bronze Age settlements, traces of onion remains were found alongside date stones and fig remains that date back to 5000 BC.[13]
However, it is not clear if these were cultivated onions. Archaeological and literary evidence such as the Book of Numbers 11:5 suggests that onions were probably being cultivated around two thousand years later in ancient Egypt, at the same time that leeks and garlic were cultivated. Workers who built the Egyptian pyramids may have been fed radishes and onions.[13]
The onion is easily propagated, transported and stored. The ancient Egyptians worshipped it,[14] believing its spherical shape and concentric rings symbolized eternal life. Onions were even used in Egyptian burials, as evidenced by onion traces being found in the eye sockets of Ramesses IV.
In ancient Greece, athletes ate large quantities of onion because it was believed to lighten the balance of the blood. Roman gladiators were rubbed down with onions to firm up their muscles. In the Middle Ages, onions were such an important food that people would pay their rent with onions, and even give them as gifts.[14] Doctors were known to prescribe onions to facilitate bowel movements and erections, and to relieve headaches, coughs, snakebite and hair loss.[14]
Onions were taken to North America by the first settlers, however they found that the Native Americans were already using wild onions in a number of ways, eating them raw or cooked in a variety of foods. They also used them to make into syrups, to form poultices and in the preparation of dyes. According to diaries kept by the colonists, bulb onions were one of the first things planted by the Pilgrim Fathers when they cleared the land for cropping in 1648.[14]
Onions were also prescribed by doctors in the early 16th century to help with infertility in women. They were similarly used to raise fertility levels in dogs, cats and cattle, but this was an error as recent evidence has shown that onions are toxic to dogs, cats, guinea pigs and many other animals.[15][16][17]
Culinary uses[edit]
Onions are often chopped and used as an ingredient in various hearty warm dishes, and may also be used as a main ingredient in their own right, for example in French onion soup or onion chutney. They are very versatile and can be baked, boiled, braised, fried, roasted, sautéed or eaten raw in salads.[18] Onions are also used as a thickening agent for curries providing bulk. Onions pickled in vinegar are eaten as a snack. These are often served as a side serving in pubs and fish and chip shops throughout the United Kingdom and Australia, often served with cheese and/or ale in the United Kingdom. In North America, sliced onions are battered and deep fried and served as onion rings.[19]
Onion types and products[edit]
Common onions are normally available in three colours: yellow, red, and white. Yellow onions, also called brown onions, are full-flavoured and are the onions of choice for everyday use. Yellow onions turn a rich, dark brown when caramelized and give French onion soup its sweet flavour. The red onion is a good choice for fresh use when its colour livens up the dish. It is also used in grilling and char-broiling. White onions are the traditional onions that are used in classic Mexican cuisine. They have a golden colour when cooked and a particularly sweet flavour when sautéed.[20][21]
While the large mature onion bulb is the onion most often eaten, onions can be eaten at immature stages. Young plants may be harvested before bulbing occurs and used whole as scallions.[22] When an onion is harvested after bulbing has begun but the onion is not yet mature, the plants are sometimes referred to as summer onions.[23]
Additionally, onions may be bred and grown to mature at smaller sizes. Depending on the mature size and the purpose for which the onion is used, these may be referred to as pearl, boiler, or pickler onions, but differ from true pearl onions which are a different species.[23] Pearl and boiler onions may be cooked as a vegetable rather than as an ingredient and pickler onions are often preserved in vinegar as a long-lasting relish.[24]
Onions are available in fresh, frozen, canned, caramelized, pickled and chopped forms. The dehydrated product is available as kibbled, sliced, rings, minced, chopped, granulated and powder forms.[25] Onion powder is a spice widely used when the fresh ingredient is not available. It is made from finely ground, dehydrated onions, mainly the pungent varieties of bulb onions, and has a strong odour. Being dehydrated, it has a long shelf life and comes in several varieties: white, yellow and red.[26]
Non-culinary uses[edit]
Onions have particularly large cells that are readily observed by the human eye at low magnification; consequently, onion tissue is frequently used in science education for demonstrating microscope usage and for learning about the structure of cells.[27]
The pungent juice of onions has been used as a moth repellent and can be rubbed on the skin to prevent insect bites. When applied to the scalp it is said to promote growth of hair and on the face to reduce freckling. It has been used to polish glass and copperware and to prevent rust on iron. If boiling water is poured onto chopped onions and left to cool, the resulting liquor can be sprayed onto plants to increase their resistance to pests, and the onion plants when growing are reputed to keep away moles and insects.[28] Onion skins have been used to produce a yellow-brown dye.[29]

Most onion cultivars are about 89% water, 4% sugar, 1% protein, 2% fibre and 0.1% fat. They are high in vitamin C, vitamin B6 and folic acid and are a good source of dietary fibre. They are very low in fats and in sodium, and with an energy value of 166kJ (40 kcal) per 100 g (3.5 oz) serving, they can contribute their flavour to savoury dishes without raising the calorific content to any great extent.[21]
Onions contain chemical compounds such as phenolics and flavonoids, that have potential anti-inflammatory, anti-cholesterol, anticancer and antioxidant properties. These include quercetin[30] and its glycosides quercetin 3,4'-diglucoside and quercetin-4'-glucoside.[31][32] There are considerable differences between different varieties in antioxidant content. Shallots have the highest level, six times the amount found in Vidalia onions, the variety with the smallest amount.[33]
Some people suffer from allergic reactions after handling onions.[3] Symptoms can include contact dermatitis, intense itching, rhinoconjunctivitis, blurred vision, bronchial asthma, sweating and anaphylaxis. There may be no allergic reaction in these individuals to the consumption of onions, perhaps because of the denaturing of the proteins involved during the cooking process.[34]
While onions and other members of the genus Allium are commonly consumed by humans, they can be deadly for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, monkeys and other animals.[3][15][16][17] The toxicity is caused by the sulfoxides present in raw and cooked onions which many animals are unable to digest. Ingestion results in anaemia caused by the distortion and rupture of red blood cells. Sick pets are sometimes fed with tinned baby foods and any that contain onion should be avoided.[35] Nor is it good for pets to be fed onion-containing leftovers such as pizza, canned spaghetti, Chinese dishes and onion rings.[36] The typical toxic doses are 5 g (0.2 oz) per kg (2.2 lb) bodyweight for cats and 15 to 30 g (0.5 to 1.1 oz) per kg for dogs.[15]
In India, some sects do not eat onions as they believe them to be an aphrodisiac.[37] Various schools of Buddhism also advise against the consumption of onions and garlic because they increase desire when eaten cooked and anger when eaten raw.[38]
Eye irritation[edit]
Chopping an onion causes damage to cells which allows enzymes called alliinases to break down amino acid sulfoxides and generate sulfenic acids. A specific sulfenic acid, 1-propenesulfenic acid, is rapidly acted on by a second enzyme, the lachrymatory factor synthase (LFS), giving syn-propanethial-S-oxide, a volatile gas known as the onion lachrymatory factor or LF.[3] This gas diffuses through the air and soon reaches the eye, where it activates sensory neurons, creating a stinging sensation. Tear glands produce tears in order to dilute and flush out the irritant.[39]
Eye irritation can be avoided by cutting onions under running water or submerged in a basin of water.[39] Leaving the root end intact also reduces irritation as the onion base has a higher concentration of sulphur compounds than the rest of the bulb.[40] Refrigerating the onions before use reduces the enzyme reaction rate and using a fan can blow the gas away from the eyes. The more often one chops onions, the less one experiences eye irritation.[41]
The amount of sulfenic acids and LF released and the irritation effect differs among Allium species. In 2008, the New Zealand Crop and Food institute created a strain of "no tears" onions by using gene-silencing biotechnology to prevent synthesis by the onions of the LFS enzyme.[42]
Onions are best cultivated in light to medium soils that are well-drained and have had well-rotted manure or compost dug in the previous year. Bulbing onions are day-length sensitive; their bulbs begin growing only after the number of daylight hours has surpassed some minimal quantity. Most traditional European onions are what is referred to as "long-day" onions, producing bulbs only after 15+ hours of daylight occurs. Southern European and North African varieties are often known as "intermediate day" types, requiring only 12–13 hours of daylight to stimulate bulb formation. Finally, "short-day" onions, which have been developed in more recent times, are planted in mild-winter areas in the fall and form bulbs in the early spring, and require only 9–10 hours of sunlight to stimulate bulb formation.[43] Onions are a cool-weather plant; hot temperatures or other stressful conditions cause them to "bolt", meaning that a flower stem begins to grow. The stem can be cut off and the onion used straight away but it will not store well.[44]
Onions may be grown from seed or, on a garden scale, from sets started from seed the previous year. Onion seeds are short lived and for best results, fresh seed should be used each year.[43][45] To extend the growing season, seed can be sown in seed trays in early spring, hardened off and planted at the two-leaf stage. This should only be done when the soil is "workable", neither frozen nor too soggy. For direct-sown crops, the seeds are sewn thinly in shallow drills spaced 23 to 30 cm (9 to 12 in) apart, thinning the plants in stages to 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 in) apart. In suitable climates, certain cultivars can be sown in late summer and autumn to overwinter in the ground and produce early crops the following year.[12]
Onion sets are produced by sowing seed thickly in early summer. The soil should not be rich and the small bulbs produced are harvested in the autumn. These bulbs are planted the following spring and grow into mature bulbs later in the year.[28] Certain cultivars are used for this purpose and these may not have such good storage characteristics as those grown directly from seed.[12]
Routine care during the growing season involves keeping the rows free of competing weeds, especially when the plants are young. The plants are shallow rooted and do not need a great deal of water when established. Bulbing usually takes after twelve to eighteen weeks. The bulbs can be gathered when needed to eat fresh but if required to be kept in store, should be harvested after the leaves have died back naturally. In dry weather they can be left on the surface of the soil for a few days to dry out properly, then they can be placed in nets, roped into strings or laid in layers in shallow boxes. They should be stored in a well-ventilated, cool place such as a shed.[12]
Pests and diseases[edit]
Onions suffer from a number of plant disorders. The most serious for the home gardener are likely to be the onion fly, stem and bulb eelworm, white rot and neck rot. Diseases affecting the foliage include rust and smut, downy mildew and white tip disease. The bulbs may be affected by splitting, white rot and neck rot. Shanking is a condition when the central leaves turn yellow and the inner part of the bulb collapses into an unpleasant-smelling slime. Most of these disorders are best treated by removing and burning affected plants.[46] The larvae of the onion leaf miner or leek moth (Acrolepiopsis assectella) sometimes attacks the foliage and may burrow down into the bulb. [47]
The onion fly (Delia antiqua) lays eggs on the leaves and stems and on the ground close to onion, shallot, leek and garlic plants. The fly is attracted to the crop by the smell of damaged tissue and is liable to occur after thinning. Plants grown from sets are less prone to attack.The larvae tunnel into the bulbs and the foliage wilts and turns yellow. The bulbs are disfigured and rot, especially in wet weather. Control measures may include crop rotation, the use of seed dressings, early sowing or planting and the removal of infested plants.[48]
The onion eelworm (Ditylenchus dipsaci), a tiny parasitic soil-living nematode, causes swollen distorted foliage. Young plants are killed and older ones produce soft bulbs. There is no cure and affected plants should be uprooted and burnt. The site should not be used for growing onions again for several years and should also be avoided for growing carrots, parsnips and beans which are also susceptible to the eelworm.[49]
White rot of onions, leeks and garlic is caused by the soil-borne fungus Sclerotium cepivorum. As the roots rot, the foliage turns yellow and wilts. The base of the bulbs is attacked and becomes covered by a fluffy white mass of mycelia which later produces small, globular black structures called sclerotia. These resting structures remain in the soil to reinfect a future crop. There is no cure for this fungal disease so affected plants should be removed and destroyed and the ground used for unrelated crops in subsequent years.[50]
Neck rot is a fungal disease affecting onions in storage. It is caused by Botrytis allii which attacks the neck and upper parts of the bulb causing a grey mould to develop. The symptoms often first occur where the bulb has been damaged and spread downwards in the affected scales. Large quantities of spores are produced and crust-like sclerotia may also develop. In time a dry rot sets in and the bulb becomes a dry, mummified structure. This disease may be present throughout the growing period but only manifest itself when the bulb is in store. Anti-fungal seed dressings are available and the disease can be minimised by preventing physical damage to the bulbs at harvesting, careful drying and curing of the mature onions and correct storage in a cool, dry place with plenty of circulating air.[51]
Storage in the home[edit]
Cooking onions and sweet onions are better stored at room temperature, optimally in a single layer, in mesh bag in a dry, cool, dark, well-ventilated location. In this environment, cooking onions have a shelf life of three to four weeks and sweet onions one to two weeks. Cooking onions will absorb odours from apples and pears. Also, they draw moisture from vegetables with which they are stored which may cause them to decay.[43][52]
Sweet onions have a greater water and sugar content than cooking onions. This makes them sweeter and milder tasting but reduces their shelf life. Sweet onions can be stored refrigerated; they have a shelf life of approximately one month. Irrespective of type, any cut pieces of onion are best tightly wrapped, stored away from other produce, and used within two to three days.[40]
Common onion group (var. cepa)[edit]
Most of the diversity within A. cepa occurs within this group, the most economically important Allium crop. Plants within this group form large single bulbs, and are grown from seed or seed-grown sets. The majority of cultivars grown for dry bulbs, salad onions, and pickling onions belong to this group.[11] The range of diversity found among these cultivars includes variation in photoperiod (length of day that triggers bulbing), storage life, flavour, and skin colour.[53] Common onions range from the pungent varieties used for dried soups and onion powder to the mild and hearty sweet onions, such as the Vidalia from Georgia, USA, or Walla Walla from Washington that can be sliced and eaten on a sandwich instead of meat.
European onions[edit]
A number of onions have Protected Geographical Status in Europe, these include:
- Cebolla Fuentes de Ebro, a sweet, watery and soft variety from Zaragoza, Spain (PDO)[54]
- Cipolla Rossa di Tropea, a red onion from Calabria, Italy (PGI)[55]
- Cipollotto Nocerino, a spring/salad onion-sized Allium cepa from Campania, Italy (PDO)[56]
- Oignon doux des Cévennes, a sweet onion from the southeast of France (PDO)[57]
Aggregatum group (var. aggregatum)[edit]
This group contains shallots and potato onions, also referred to as multiplier onions. The bulbs are smaller than those of common onions, and a single plant forms an aggregate cluster of several bulbs. They are propagated almost exclusively from daughter bulbs, although reproduction from seed is possible. Shallots are the most important subgroup within this group and comprise the only cultivars cultivated commercially. They form aggregate clusters of small, narrowly ovoid to pear-shaped bulbs. Potato onions differ from shallots in forming larger bulbs with fewer bulbs per cluster, and having a flattened (onion-like) shape. However, intermediate forms exist.[11]
I'itoi onion (Allium cepa) is a prolific multiplier onion cultivated in the Baboquivari Peak Wilderness, Arizona area. This small bulb type has a shallot-like flavour and is easy to grow and ideal for hot, dry climates. Bulbs are separated, and planted in the fall 1 inch below surface and 12 inches apart. Bulbs will multiply into clumps and can be harvested throughout the cooler months. Tops will die back in the heat of summer and may return with heavy rains; bulbs can remain in the ground or be harvested and stored in a cool dry place for planting in the fall. The plants rarely flower; propagation is by division.[58]
Species that may be confused with A. cepa[edit]
Scallions or salad onions may be grown from the Welsh onion (A. fistulosum) as well as from A. cepa. Young plants of A. fistulosum and A. cepa look very similar, but may be distinguished by their leaves, which are circular in cross-section in A. fistulosum rather than flattened on one side.[59]
Hybrids with A. cepa parentage[edit]
A number of hybrids are cultivated that have A. cepa parentage, such as the tree onion or Egyptian onion (A. ×proliferum), Wakegi onion (A. ×wakegi), and the triploid onion (A. ×cornutum).
Diploid hybrids[edit]
The tree onion or Egyptian onion produces bulblets in the flower head instead of flowers, and is now known to be a hybrid of A. cepa × A. fistulosum. It has previously been treated as a variety of A. cepa, for example A. cepa var. proliferum, A. cepa var. bulbiferum, and A. cepa var. viviparum.[60]
The Wakegi onion is also known to be a hybrid between A. cepa and A. fistulosum, with the A. cepa parent believed to be from the Aggregatum Group of cultivars.[61] It has been grown for centuries in Japan and China for use as a salad onion.[62]
Under the rules of botanical nomenclature, both the Egyptian onion and Wakegi onion should be combined into one hybrid species, having the same parent species. Where this is followed, the Egyptian onion is named A. ×proliferum Eurasian Group and the Wakegi onion is named A. ×proliferum East Asian Group.[2]
Triploid onions[edit]
The triploid onion is a hybrid species with three sets of chromosomes, two sets from A. cepa and the third set from an unknown parent.[61] Various clones of the triploid onion are grown locally in different regions, such as 'Ljutika' in Croatia, and 'Pran', 'Poonch' and 'Srinagar' in the India-Kashmir region. 'Pran' is grown extensively in the Northern Indian provinces of Jammu and Kashmir. There are very small genetic differences between 'Pran' and the Croatian clone 'Ljutika', implying a monophyletic origin for this species.[63]
Some authors have used the name A. cepa var. viviparum (Metzg.) Alef. for the triploid onion, but this name has also been applied to the Egyptian onion. The only name unambiguously connected with the triploid onion is A. ×cornutum.
Production and trade[edit]
It is estimated that around the World, over 9,000,000 acres (3,642,000 ha) of onions are grown annually. About 170 countries cultivate onions for domestic use and about eight percent of the global production is traded internationally.[21]

The Onion Futures Act, passed in 1958, bans the trading of futures contracts on onions in the United States. This prohibition came into force after farmers complained about alleged market manipulation by Sam Seigel and Vincent Kosuga at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange two years earlier. The subsequent investigation provided economists with a unique case study into the effects of futures trading on agricultural prices. The act remains in effect as of 2013[update].[65]

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
At 10 months old, my son had undescended testicle surgery. At that time, I was told he will have a higher chance to develop testicular cancer around 10 years of age. He is 8 years old now. How common is this? I have been looking for answers, none to be found. Please guide me, I would sleep a lot better with some answers.
Amit Maity, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
It is generally accepted that boys who had an undescended testis have a higher risk of developing cancer in this testis, even if surgery is performed at an early age to lower the testis. The reason for this is not understood.
There is disagreement about exactly how high the risk is. In some studies, an undescended testis is associated with a 2- to 4-fold increase in the risk of testicular cancer ; in others it is 5-10 fold. However, as high as these numbers may sound, keep in mind that testicular cancer is not nearly as common in the general population as other cancers, such as breast, prostate, colorectal, and lung.
In one British study published in 1997, 1,075 boys with undescended testis diagnosed in the 1950's and early 1960's were followed into the mid 1990's. Eleven of these subjects developed testicular cancer. The relative risk compared to men in the general population was 7.5 (meaning the risk is 7.5 times that of a child with descended testes). Given that testicular cancer is so rare, this rate is still quite low. So you can see that even with the history of an undescended testis, the overwhelming likelihood is that your son will NOT develop testicular cancer. However, because he is at higher risk, he should undergo regular testicular examinations by a healthcare provider, and when he is old enough, he should examine his testes himself.

"An ARM of the local church"
In the past, the Colorado Baptists have had a few resort ministries usually accomplished with a full time HMB/NAMB missionary. Vail/Beaver Creek and Winter Park/Tabernash are good examples. These were both good ministries and both developed churches and promoted evangelism. However, these became the models of resort work in Colorado suggesting that if a church or an area wanted to develop a resort type ministry they needed to make application for and receive a full time HMB/NAMB resort missionary. This was not planned, but it was the perception.
By Karen Peck
In September 2012, Ponderosa was blessed by a total of 25 volunteers serving during our Inaugural Golden Days. Golden Days is the name we gave a group of senior adults that came from different churches and volunteered their services here at Ponderosa.
"It was a great opportunity for senior adults to have a mission experience that was affordable, without having to travel far, or stay a long time," said Pastor Duane Trimble who leads groups of volunteers. "They had the chance to meet people from other churches and the staff at Ponderosa, and really enjoyed each other's company."
Reggie McNeal will be the Keynote speaker at the Keystone Resort in Colorado for the Rocky Mountain Resort Ministries Institute and the Association of Resort and Leisure Ministers Semi- Annual Meeting. The Theme for our time together is CONFIRMING YOUR CALL.
As we serve out our calling there will always be times of change that will seem to challenge our calling. In fact, it would seem that almost every time I get "comfortable" with my calling to a particular ministry or place, I can expect that there will be a challenge. In these past few years there have been many challenging times. Did God suddenly change my calling? Did God suddenly decide that He did not want to use evangelistic ministry in the Resort Community? Did the denomination I have served for 25 years turn it's back on me? Is resort ministries dead?
These are questions that have been asked and with which many have had to struggle.
There have been many models of Resort Ministry through out the United States. Most are project based and last for the time period of the special project or event and then disappear. If someone is saved, they have little hope of further guidance unless they make special effort to find a church and avail themselves of the discipleship training. For this reason most pastors and church leaders have come to see resort ministries as a drain on resources and a burden to the church, not producing many lasting results. I believe there is a better way. I believe that when resort ministry is church based resort ministry, with a very broad target group, churches are started and strengthened. Church based resort ministry has Biblical precedence.
"When Jesus came into the world there existed no such thing as the Church."
As Christ established the church it was unlike anything that had gone on before. It is not the reorganization of the synagogue. It is not another children of Israel wandering around in the wilderness. It is Christ, alive in the world through those He has chosen. We, the Church, are those called out of the world to be indwelt by the Living Powerful Holy Spirit of God. We are the Body of Christ empowered by His eternal Holy Spirit. As Christ walked on the earth so we are designed and empowered to walk on the earth. We first see the word Church mentioned in Matthew 16:14. The text reads as follows:.....
As I look out the West Window this morning I am reminded of the overwhelming love that God has for all of mankind. The sky is rosy pink as the clouds move slowly across a turquoise sky. God does let us know He is there by the beauty of the world around us. He also lets us know of His love for us by the beauty of the changed lives around us. To the Father this beauty of a life taken from the absolute blackness of sin, where there is no color and no beauty to a sudden rainbow of color, shape and movement, is better than going just from night to a beautiful sunrise. Whereas the sunrises and sunsets will one day be done away with, this human soul will be beautifully His for eternity.
Colorado Baptists are partnering with the "More Than Gold" organization in sending ministry teams, providing funding and collecting items for hospitality bags.
There is much written and discussed these days about Globalization. If one gets on the Internet, looks at seminars for leaders in the business world or even watches CNN or any of the video news magazines, the term is used frequently. The difficulty comes when we try to nail down exactly what Globalization is. Webster's New World Dictionary lists it as: glob-al-ism (-iz|m) n. a policy, outlook, etc. that is worldwide in scope --global-ist n. , adj.
Or glob-al-ize (globl iz) vt. -ized, -iz|ing to make global; esp., to organize or establish worldwide --glob|al-i-zation n.
Most business writings characterize it as a "global village" or "one world government".
I wish us to look at globalization in a Biblical sense.

"I started Paleo when I learned how much the diet could impact my health–specifically my rheumatoid arthritis. I was already gluten-free, but the idea of cutting out so many other foods was pretty intimidating at first. This helps me SO MUCH, though! I'm amazed at the quality of the recipes and am so grateful for all the creative ideas. I've been on Paleo for almost two months now and we've made the carrot muffins and omelet muffins every week — they are fabulous! And I'm feeling great – more energy and less lethargy. Thanks, Paleo Plan!"— Mindy H.
"The Paleo Plan is amazing. My husband and I began three weeks ago and are losing weight and feeling much more energetic. Your recipies are really good and very easy to prepare. Shopping is a breeze with the weekly menu shopping list. You have done a great job. Thanks."— Margaret
"Just wanted to let you know that my husband, son, and I have loved the recipes! They have been simple to prepare and delicious… I especially like the ease of planning….printing the menu and grocery list has been a lifesaver!"— Pam

Glad you got everything you wanted!!!!
Glad you got everything you wanted!!!!
I guess not...we have never done Chef Mickey for breakfast, only dinner, so I am excited to try it. I love, love, LOVE Crystal Palace. It was our first WDW TS ever, and we always do birthdays there. There is a puffed french toast stuff at breakfast that I swear I could eat every single day of my life...YUM! I am so excited that we are under 90 days!
Better keep your eye on me...I'll go coastal on ya....
OOooohhhh...tell me about the French Toast. What is it stuffed with?
See what my son made for me?
I don't think it's stuffed, it is like layers of light, fluffy, cinnamom and sugar goodness...I can't even explain how good it is!!!
Better keep your eye on me...I'll go coastal on ya....
We're going during free dining, so I think we were really fortunate to get everything we wanted! We'll be overlapping with my parents for the first three reservations, but aside from that, it's just two adults (I speculate it's sometimes easier to get a ressie for 2 adults - it was much harder to book the 4 adults earlier in the week), but here's what they are:
Saturday: Le Cellier (Dinner)
Sunday: Rose and Crown or Tutto Italia (dinner)
Monday: Crystal Palace (breakfast), Chefs de France (dinner)
Tuesday: California Grill (anniversary dinner!!)
Wednesday: Coral Reef (dinner)
Thursday: Bistro de Paris (oop dinner)
Friday: Tony's Town Square (dinner during MNSSHP)
We'll end up paying oop for one of the other meals as we only have 7 TS credits, but would use 8 if we used the DDP for all of them (**sigh**).
Do we have to let them know in advance whether or not we'll use the DDP credits or can we wait until we get there, see how hungry we are, and let them know when we decide to order?
"When you wish upon a star..."
I THINK you'll need to tell your server when you begin to order if you're "on the plan" or not. But if you're still not sure at that point, ask him/her if you can decide at the end when you decide if you want dessert. They might tell you that you need to decide up front because of their computer system, but I don't know enough about that system to know for sure.
OK - we have a trip in June, July, Sep, and Nov. As of yesterday I have ADRs through Sept. A few changes have been made.

I couldn't believe how hard it was to get our ADRs figured out (well after reading this thread I can). We decided on a whim to plan a trip for August (right at the beginning of free dining) a couple weeks ago, so well into the 90 day window already. We upgraded to the deluxe dining plan because we have small kids who need to eat the 3 meals and 2 snacks a day. Also having small children we needed to plan very well the basic structure of our day. We didn't get all of our first choices and some of the times are crazy, but I think we did pretty good.
The Crystal Palace
Hollywood and Vine
*Trails End (Had to eat at a resort, wanted TS and this was basically all they had available that worked with our arrival flight...anyone eaten there before?)
*Liberty Tree
*Hollywood and Vine (same day as the breakfast one, we really wanted Sci-fi but this was all they had at HS which is where we will be that day)
*Whispering Canyon
We will do QS for lunch each day at whichever park we are in. We'll also pick up a QS breakfast on our way out of our resort to the airport.
We love Trails End...yummy comfort food and a relaxed atmosphere. You can usually get this day of, it is very rarely crowded. As far as Sci-Fi, call a few times between now and your trip date to see if they have any openings, and then call from the hotel that morning, and again from the park if you have a cell phone.
Better keep your eye on me...I'll go coastal on ya....
Hey, I think you did a good job considering you were already within the 90 day window. I really like Trails End. In fact, we're going back to try out their breakfast this August.
Working hard for that next WDW trip! December 2013
We are travelling from Oregon and have a group of 12. Here is our list:
Sept 11 8:25 am Chef Mickey's (7) / 4 tix to Night of Joy
Sept 12 7:15 pm Hoop-Dee-Doo category 3, but oh well (6)
7:15 pm Raglan Raod (6)
Sept 13 6:30 pm Crystal Palace (12)
Sept 14 7:30 pm Illuminations Grand Gathering (12)
Sept 15 6:00 pm Boma (12)
Sept 16 8:20 am Tusker House Breakfast (7)
7:30 pm Rainforest Cafe (6)
7:45 pm Rainforest Cafe (6 more....wouldn't book 12 together)
Sept 17 8:10 am Akershus Princess Breakfast (7)
6:10 pm Rose and Crown (5)
Sept 18 4:20 pm Mama Melrose + Fantasmic (12) Maybe fix glitches by Sep?
Sept 19 5:40 pm Cape May (12)
Plus the 7 year old is going on the pirate adventure at 9:30 am
Sept 20 6:45 pm Le Cellier (3)
We do not have park hoppers, which influenced it alot. Plus, travelling w/ mostly teens who want late hours not early, so that added another complication Considering group size, pretty happy we got everyone to mostly agree or just two options....I thought I would be making way more 2 or 3 here and 2 or 3 at another place.
RFC is added because we have some gift cards from My Points. Also, we will have $60 in Planet Hollywood vouchers from our package, so we will fill in with those...anyone know if we need ADR's there?

Glad to hear Trails End is good. Today we decided to change our plan a bit...yes we are crazy and fully admit it. We were planning a day each at MK, HS, and AK but decided that MK needed 2 days and HS was more for DH and I and not really the kids (and we really want this trip to be all about the kids, or at least all about the 2 year old, the baby will not know any different). So that said...
Hollywood and Vine are both out as is Boma. In their places we are doing Cape May for breakfast, Chef Mickey's (we got very lucky and scored a lunch time), Ohana for breakfast, and going back to the Liberty Tree for lunch this time (it's a favorite of ours). We also have tickets to Hoop-Dee-Doo but it's the 9:30 show and I am just not sure we want to be out that late with the kids. We are also considering canceling the Whispering Canyon since it's at 9pm on a MK extra magic hours in the evening day now instead of an AK day. I don't know how we have been so lucky to get what we think are great dining options (added 3 new character meals) but I will take it!
Another ? for you Disney Vets...with the deluxe dining plan how many TS meals do you try to get in a day? We have at least 2 a day and the days with 3 are making me uneasy.

This is our first time with the Deluxe Dining Plan, too, and we are only doing 2 TS meals a day. I KNOW my 7 year old would get nuts if I tried 3 sit downs a day, so we will just play it by ear for lunches. We have a breakfast and dinner planned for each day, and I think that is enough of forcing him to sit for long periods. You know your kids best, so I would really try to stay flexible on the days you have three planned, and give them plenty of chances to run around and burn energy. There is at least one spot in each park where they can run, and I really would schedule that in for them. Have fun!!!!!

jsilky, that's a GREAT list!
Working hard for that next WDW trip! December 2013
I am really excited.
Last time we went in 2005 we only did Beirgarten, the sit down place in Italy, the Donald Safari Breakfast and RFC.
The rest was all counter service, which I actually think we enjoy more at DL. We love the counter service there, but had a hard time finding things we like in WDW. Hopefully with more planning and research this time will be better.
I think both the breakfast and the Italian place are different now. We didn't really like the Italian place, all the others were good but very expensive...hooray for free dining!!
