Wax Applied to Fruit
Consumer Concerns: Waxing, is it safe?
Many fruits and vegetables make their own natural waxy coating to help retain moisture because most produce is 80-95% water.
After harvest but before the produce is packed and sent to the supermarket, it is repeatedly washed to clean off dirt and soil. Such extensive washing also removes the natural wax. Therefore, waxes are applied to some produce items at the packing shed to replace the natural ones that are lost. Waxes help retain the fruit's or vegetable's moisture.
Waxes are also used to help inhibit mold growth; to protect fruits and vegetables from bruising; to prevent other physical damage and disease; and to enhance appearance.
By protecting against moisture loss and contamination, wax coatings help fresh fruits and vegetables maintain wholesomeness and freshness. Waxing does not improve the quality of any inferior fruit or vegetables; rather, waxing--along with proper handling--contributes to maintaining a healthful product.
Waxes come from natural sources.
Wax sources generally are plants, food-grade petroleum products, or insects (similar to honey from bees). Some waxes can be made from dairy or animal sources, but we are not aware of any such coatings being used on fruits and vegetables in Mexico, the United States or Canada. This is particularly important for people following Kosher or vegetarian diets and who don't want any animal-based wax on their produce. Any commodities that do have this type of coating must be labeled "Coated with animal-based wax."
Waxes are used only in tiny amounts.
In fact, each piece of waxed produce only has a drop or two of wax. Waxes may be mixed with water or other wetting agents to ensure they are applied thinly and evenly.
The government regulates wax coatings to ensure their safety.
Coatings used on fruits and vegetables must meet the food additive regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Extensive research by governmental and scientific authorities has shown that approved waxes are safe to eat. Waxes are indigestible, which means they go through the body without breaking down or being absorbed.
Waxes may turn white on the surface of fruits or vegetables if they have been subjected to excessive heat and/or moisture.
This whitening is safe and is similar to that of a candy bar that has been in the freezer.
Apples Produce their own self-wax.
All apples may produce their own natural wax when left out of refrigeration. It's their "built in" self preservation. This is more common with the Granny Smith variety, but all varieties are susceptible. It's completely harmless and does not alter the flavor.
Consumers do have choices.
Waxes generally cannot be removed by regular washing. If consumers prefer not to consume waxes--even though the waxes are safe--they can buy un-waxed commodities or can peel the fruit or vegetable, thereby removing any coating. Ask your grocer if you have questions.
To avoid waxing all together we recommend that you purchase Rainier's Organic Apples. Check with your local retailer about their organic availability.

When released, Back to the Future became the most successful film of the year, grossing more than $380 million worldwide and receiving very positive reviews.
When released, Back to the Future became the most successful film of the year, grossing more than $380 million worldwide and receiving very positive reviews.
Character name of Emmett comes from the word "time," spelled backwards and pronounced as syllables (em-it). His middle name is "Lathrop," which is "portal" backwards, with an extra "h" inserted in the middle.
Christopher Lloyd based his performance as Doc Brown on a combination of physicist Albert Einstein and conductor Leopold Stokowski. Brown's pronunciation of gigawatts as "jigowatts", is based on the way a physicist whom Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale met with for research said the word.
The inspiration for the film largely stems from Bob Gale discovering his father's high school yearbook and wondering whether he would have been friends with his father as a teenager. Gale also said that if he had the chance to go back in time he would really go back and see if they would have been friends.
Michael J. Fox had always been the first choice for Marty, but he was unavailable due to scheduling conflicts with his work on Family Ties. As "Family Ties" co-star Meredith Baxter was pregnant at the time, Fox was carrying a lot more of the show than usual. The show's producer Gary David Goldberg simply couldn't afford to let Fox go. Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale then cast Eric Stoltz as Marty based on his performance in Mask. After four weeks of filming Zemeckis and Gale felt that Stoltz wasn't right for the part and Stoltz agreed. By this stage, Baxter was back fully on the show and Goldberg agreed to let Fox go off to make the film. Fox worked out a schedule to fulfill his commitment to both projects. Every day during production, he drove straight to the movie set after taping of the show was finished every day and averaged about five hours of sleep. The bulk of the production was filmed from 6pm to 6am, with the daylight scenes filmed on weekends. Fox found it exhausting, but "it was my dream to be in the film and television business, although I didn't know I'd be in them simultaneously. It was just this weird ride and I got on." Zemeckis concurred, dubbing Back to the Future "the film that would not wrap." He recalled that because they shot night after night, he was always "half asleep" and the "fattest, most out-of-shape and sick I ever was."
Robert Zemeckis decided to leave out several planned effects shots. One shot in particular involved Forrest running into Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his supporters. Forrest distracts several dogs trying to attack King and his supporters by playing fetch with them and rendering them harmless to King and himself as well as his supporters.
During the ping-pong matches, there was no ball; it was entirely CGI, animated to meet the actors' paddles.
The line, "My name is Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump," was ad libbed by Tom Hanks while filming the scene and director Robert Zemeckis liked it so much that he decided to keep it in.
The park bench that Tom Hanks sat on for much of the movie was located in historic Savannah, Georgia, at Chippewa Square. The fiberglass bench he sat on, since then, has been removed and placed into a museum to avoid being destroyed by bad weather, or possibly stolen. To this day, the bench is held in the Savannah History Museum, Savannah, Georgia.
Tom Hanks signed onto the film after an hour and a half of reading the script but agreed to take the role only on the condition that the film was historically accurate. He initially wanted to ease Forrest's pronounced Southern accent, but was eventually persuaded by director Robert Zemeckis to portray the heavy accent stressed in the novel and patterned his accent after Michael Conner Humphreys (young Forrest) who actually spoke that way.

(Although to be fair it was an update of the long forgotten "lassiters lost reef" of which I only know that the ride mechanism was kept).
Sadly though, when you rely on the greatest effects you can buy today, you're just 5 mins away from being old news. Now the ride lies dormant with mere rumours of it coming back. A similar ride at sister Park "Warner Bro Movie World" featuring the Looney Tunes characters also lies dormant.
A loop is a loop is a loop is a loop - it's always going to be exciting. G-Forces never go out of style. Advanced effects have a sell by date built in...
The question should also be asked about dark rides. Why don't regional parks do more small dark rides (Snow White, Mr. Toads, Pinnochio, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland) like what Disneyland has? They are relatively cheap when compared to the more elaborate E-Ticket dark rides like the Haunted Mansion and The Little Mermaid. Unfortunately, Disney closed some small dark rides in Orlando and opened a limited number of small dark rides in their new parks.
Regional parks should have a wider variety of rides and not just roller coasters. I could say the same for Universal who went to the simulator route. I'm tired of sitting through another movie at Universal. My butt is tired from the shaking of my seat.
I wish Knott's would update the Calico Mine Train ride and bring back its closed Dinosaur or Knott's Berry Tale ride.
And regarding water rides, those can become maintenance nightmares. Plus you may have to suspend its early spring and late fall operations for seasonal parks, which already operate on a restricted time period.
These are the experiences that keep me visiting these attractions instead of some of the more coaster-heavy parks. Judging from the attendance numbers I'm definitely not the only one.
And regarding water rides, those can become maintenance nightmares. Plus you may have to suspend its early spring and late fall operations for seasonal parks, which already operate on a restricted time period.
Numbers like that always impress me, especially when you look at the quality of attraction. I wish theme park spent more time on higher quality rides that support higher hourly capacities.
I'm heading out to Orlando on Thursday for the WDW Marathon and I will be sneaking away from the mouse house to enjoy some butter beer and a few spins on HPATFJ.
Let's do the math.
An expensive B&M or Intimin coaster has 32 seats. Most of these big coasters can be dispatched every 90 seconds. That's a capacity of 1280 guests per hour.
Now using a YouTube clip of the Coal Cracker at Hershey Park, their turntable releases boats every 15 seconds (240 times an hour). And the traditional log flume probably averages 4 guests per boat, giving most log flumes an average of 960 guests an hour. The duel stations used at Knott's probably dispatches the same or slower.
Of course the answer is to make bigger boats while still retaining quick dispatches. But parks don't like to make headlining flume rides because water makes everything harder and more expensive. Just look at Jaws, Madagascar and Splash Mountain;s current condition.
Marty Sklar, one of the original Imagineers, once said, "We're in the business of telling great stories, and great stories never grow old. In the end, a roller coaster is just a roller coaster."
So why do regional parks just build roller coasters? Well, they're cool, and eye catching, and often provide a nice two-three year attendance bump. They can give parks bragging rights, create excitement, and are definitely a draw for most of us who plan world wide (or at least cross country) pilgrimages to increase an insignificant, but all consuming, "coaster count".
But, most importantly, coasters are generally far less expensive than their dark ride counterparts (exceptions being coasters like Expedition Everest and Revenge of the Mummy, which are really just story-driven dark rides disguised as roller coasters). A good coaster like Outlaw Run at Silver Dollar City will run a company $10M.... a good dark ride like Spider-Man: $80M - $100M. I think cost is the biggest factor. Regional parks can make a big splash for less money by building an uber coaster than by breaking the bank on a one of a kind narrative attraction.
Of course, in a perfect world, someone would build a great story-driven, 4-D coaster, with amazing animatronics, a 500 ft drop, a top speed of 200 mph, and a dozen inversions. Sadly, this world is far from perfect.
As for capacity, you could argue it both ways. There are many coasters out there that are designed to be people eaters, but the park's don't always operate them at maximum efficiency, causing queue lines to be long and slow moving. One train operations and only using one side of a dual-sided loading station during peak times are prime examples of how parks cut corners to save money at the expense of the guest experience.
- Brian
Six Flags and Cedar Fair have neither the financial resources nor the IP rights to build anything remotely as exciting as what can be found at the destination parks. However, for the most part they are amusement parks, not theme parks, and their visitors tend to expect thrill rides from them. Everytime I go to Six Flags Magic Mountain, I always find long lines for the roller coasters, yet their log flume (as well as every non-coaster ride in the park except Lex Luthor) constantly cycle empty seats. Even on busy days, their less intense coasters rarely have more than a two train wait. Knott's is similar, but not to the same extent, as they definitely attract more families than SFMM. Regardless of where the parks are located, I've seen similar trends among the various Cedar Fair and Six Flags parks, so when it's a choice between a multi-launched coaster and a dark ride full of cardboard cutouts, they'll always pick the coaster.
As far as coaster capacity being poor, that is more often than not a result of the park running only one train or having inefficient operators. Taken from RCDB, here are the theoretical capacities of some of Knott's coasters:
Boomerang: 760 riders per hour
GhostRider: 1,600 riders per hour
Jaguar!: 1,800 riders per hour
Montezooma's Revenge: 1,344 riders per hour
Silver Bullet: 1,300 riders per hour
Timberline Twister: 360 riders per hour
Xcelerator: 1,330 riders per hour
If you figure most major amusement park attractions are in the 1,400 to 1,700 rider per hour range, that's not all that bad. For the record, Knott's log flume has a theoretical capacity of 1,500 riders per hour, and this requires all 28 logs running with a 12 second dispatch interval and five riders per log. Normally, a 20 second interval is used and few logs have more than four riders, so the typical capacity is more like 720 riders per hour (closer to the standard flat ride range of 300 to 700 riders per hour). The only reason Knott's log flume has the highest ridership is because of the boost it recieves from Halloween Haunt, where the ride is given a maze overlay and has 2+ hour waits while operating at full capacity. It almost always has a shorter line than many of the coasters, even though their capacity is greater. While Disney does have some rides that can pull 2,500+ people an hour, outside of specially designed ride systems roller coasters are almost always the capacity kings at an amusement park.
I'd take Revenge of the Mummy over the latest and greatest Cedar Fair roller coaster any day of the week.
Log flume rides are also a lot more family friendly than typical roller coasters. Roller coasters will often have a 42", 48", or even 52" height requirement, but most flume rides will let a small child sit with a parent or guardian.
We bought 2013 passes for Knott's Berry Farm in November, and the announcement of the Timber Mountain Log Ride refurbishment was on January 2nd. Our son, who is too old for many of the kids rides in Camp Snoopy, but has just gotten old enough to love (and not be scared of) the log ride. Unfortunately, he's not yet 48" tall, so he can't ride most of the roller coasters at Knotts, not even the tame ones (Jaguar, Pony Express). That five month refurbishment makes visits to Knotts that much less attractive.
I do think though that the time is coming when some of the regional parks will begin to diversify a little bit. Case in point, I don't think that Cedar Point and their sister parks will ever stop building coasters, but I definitely think that more and more attention is being paid to visual presentation of the park. Whether or not that will translate to more themed rides remains to be seen, but it stands to reason that a former Disney exec would bring some of that influence along with him to Cedar Fair.
Knotts has been suffering from a bit of an identity crisis lately. They aren't Magic Mountain and they aren't Disney. Perhaps a return to visuals and themes is just what they need.
But for all us "attraction" people, there are plenty of roller coasting / thrill seeking types who prefer the latter.
As some mentioned before, some people love seeing a huge, twisty, sleek track of metal from the highway as they approach the park.
Some don't want story, they want an adrenaline rush.
And that's what parks like Six Flag excel in.....providing the alternative.....I wouldn't WANT to see a Six flags attempt a Disney or Universal type attraction...that's not who they're catering to.
I like coasters, but sometimes you want to ride something that is good and entertaining without getting your brains scrambled.
My theory is that coasters do not need a backstory.

Ann Hamilton (American, b. 1956)
(linings · video), 1990
Installed: 3-1/2 x 4-1/2 in. (8.9 x 11.4 cm)
Bernice and Kenneth Newberger Fund; restricted gift of Susan and Lewis Manilow and Howard and Donna Stone
Ann Hamilton established her artistic career with labor-intensive, multidimensional installations that explore communication and perception as processes embodied in a kind of physical, body poetry. In her art Hamilton pursues a means to externalize what is felt and sensed, focusing on "the importance of the information that comes through our skin." Hamilton transforms humble materials and imagery into metaphoric portrayals of experience, of attitudes toward existence. Her works ritualize mundane gestures, imagining simple objects and actions on an enormous scale, with an abundance of individual and communal labor.
Using the mechanism of one sense to trigger the perception of another, Hamilton shifts our registry of sense to unexpected parts of the body. Hamilton, who comes from a background in textiles and received her MFA in sculpture from Yale University in 1985, focuses largely on speech and the acts of speaking and hearing, transformed through often silent rituals into mute, poetic gestures.
Hamilton has increasingly interwoven moving images into her happenings, performance pieces, and process-oriented works. Linings, one of four small untitled videos—her first works relying exclusively on video—can be installed as a group or separately as individual works of art. Each monitor is set seamlessly into the wall (the compact mechanics are hidden within the wall). Each video displays a close-up, tightly cropped image loop of the artist rolling pebbles around in her mouth, allowing water to spill into (or out of) her mouth, onto her throat, and into her ear. Her simple, isolated gestures are repeated in a continuous loop. The four images focus on the points in the body where language is based, where speech is uttered and received. Rather than annihilating speech, Hamilton awakens our sensation of communication by means, paradoxically, of the sensuous, that is, tactile (often with erotic associations). Water, in the place of language, fills and spills from the cavities of sound, forming a presence sensed and experienced "through the skin."

The Older We Get the Faster We Were
I'm using the same line twice in two weeks, but what the hell.
Rowed my first formal 2,000 meter indoor rowing race of 2011 today at the Cape Cod YMCA -- the annual Cape Cod Cranberry Crunch sponsored by Cape Cod Rowing: the local club that rows on Lake Wequaquet in Centerville. I was entered in the men's heavyweight division -- there were eight of us ranging from maybe 15 years old up to the 60s -- and there were races through the afternoon for various categories of girls, women, lightweights and heavyweights.
My race -- the combined boys & men's 2K -- was first, so I started warming up almost as soon as I arrived, got good and loose, peeling off layers of clothing until I was conspicuously perched on the ergometer in lane one in my stylish Union Boat Club uni-suit, aka according to my wife, "The Dink Suit"
The eight ergs were networked and a lane display was projected on the wall showing little yellow boat icons with our names next to it. I rocked back and forth a couple times, mouth bone dry, and the monitor counted down -- Attention. Ready. Row!
I did a series of short starting strokes to get the flywheel up to speed, and then lit up at 36 strokes a minute for ten strokes with an average split of 1:20. I had written out a race plan on an index card that was on the erg between my feet, and even though I felt like Superman on Crack in the first minute, I resisted the dreaded Fly-And-Die strategy and settled down to 26 strokes per minutes at a 1:41 for 250 meters, and then further down to 1:44 for the next 250.
At the 500 meter mark -- 25 percent of the way through -- I started to breath twice on each stroke -- exhaling at the finish and the catch and inhaling on the drive and recovery as my metabolism shifted into oxygen deficit and my heart rate was climbing into the 160 range.
I did a hard power ten at the 500 meter mark and saw the 17 16 year-old kid, novice Andrew Pereira on the erg next to me -- a 220 lb., 6'5" beast from New Bedford Community Rowing who was definitely going to kick my butt -- was cranking a lot faster and pulling away. I was tempted to ignore the index card and chase, but a plan is a plan and the whole purpose of today's race was to gauge my speed three weeks before the world championships and the plan was to break 7:00 and aim for 6:45.
I felt great in the second 500 picking up the pace to 1:43 and rowed a power ten at the half-way mark. I ignored Pereira r and his coach exhorting him next to me, and stayed on plan, rowing the third 500 at 1:42, and the beginning of the final 500 at 1:41. With 250 meters or about 25 strokes left I "emptied the tank" and sprinted at 1:38. Ten strokes in and the junior was done, finishing with a 6:31. I put the handle down at 6:42.2, fast enough to win the adult division, but second to Pereira who won the Boys Division and had the fastest overall time of the day.
I won some schwag for the effort and felt good enough about the race to brag in a blog post. I'm now ranked 22nd in the world for the 50-55 heavyweight men's class.

Whether youre in South Florida for a day or have lived here for decades, chances are youve visited or plan to visit Robert is Here.
The South Dade farmstand is an institution of sunny South Florida weekends and to-do lists, equal parts tourist attraction and the gateway to agricultural Miami-Dade. And although customers stop to examine the spiky maroon lychees or the sunrise-stained mangoes, Robert is Here is best known for one thing: its milkshakes.
Customers have been known to wait an hour for the fresh fruit milkshakes their signature texture a blend of soft-serve ice cream, low-fat yogurt and milk standing on a line that wraps around a basin of watermelons and deliberating the long menu. Maybe the much-heralded strawberry key lime? The soursop? Or perhaps founder Robert Moehlings personal favorite, canistel-strawberry? The stand sells about 500 milkshakes a day, although at peak season the number climbs up to 1,400.
An open-air, one-story farmstand with a corrugated roof, Robert is Here has 54 years crammed into its small space. Family photos line every spare inch of wall space; many of the faces can be recognized in the store restocking the canned jellies or adding up a customers order on a brown paper bag. Robert does not allow calculators.
A world apart from the sleek development of downtown Miami, here family and farm reign.
Customers mill around the stacks of magenta dragonfruit and sloth-sized jackfruit, sipping milkshakes at picnic tables in the front where the stand first started half a century ago. Antique farm equipment and a stable of goats, emu and iguana are in a petting zoo out back. Its hard to imagine a time Robert wasnt here. But back in 1959, Moehlings father was a struggling farmer with a harvest of cucumbers the broker couldnt sell and no money to buy boxes for the latest harvest.
He sent Robert then, a first-grader to sell the surplus cucumbers by the side of the road, propped on a makeshift table. Robert didnt sell a single one. The next time, Robert put up a big sign, script painted on some spare hurricane shutters, telling the world I was here, Robert explains. The cucumbers sold out.
The stand is still in the same place and has the same name. No longer a piece of plywood and some crates, the stand has expanded in size and selection scaly fuchsia dragonfruit alongside plump beefsteak tomatoes. Moehling, who has worked at the stand since he was 6 the schoolbus dropped him there after school can still be found behind the counter. He met his wife, Tracey, there; his four children, as well as two daughters-in-law, all work at the stand. They built the Splash Pad, a sprinkler for children, in the back because Moehling who works more than a hundred hours a week wanted to spend more time with his grandchildren.
Moehling himself grew up at a young age: he hired his first employee at the age of 9; at 14, he bought 10 acres of land complete with a house, a car and a lawnmower. By the time he got his drivers license, Moehling was helping broker produce sales for other farmers.
I didnt have a normal childhood like a lot of people might grow up doing. Laying around watching cartoons on weekends is something Ive never done, Moehling said. Even today I cant watch television usually I fall asleep.
Robert is Here has both longtime and first-time customers. Rod Richards of Cutler Bay, who ordered a strawberry milkshake for his young son, said hed passed by many times and always meant to stop. Having finally checked it off his to-do list, he said hed be back.
Linnell Truchon, a Philadelphia native who works at a summer camp down the road from the stand, comes by frequently for smoothies. She enjoys the flavored honeys and tropical fruits.
Im from up North so I dont know what these things are, she said. Theyre really cool.
Though the stands immense popularity is not a recent development Moehling says he couldnt handle the number of visitors in 1964 and that it has been growing equally insane every day he is still awed by the number of customers who come in.
Its just amazing. I grow fruit and sell fruit and have a family. Thats all I do. I dont operate on people, dont change peoples lives for good, dont fight for you in the courtroom, he said. Its so much responsibility getting all this for doing just my life.
Now pushing 62, Moehling says hell probably be working at the stand until the day he dies.
This is not a retirement job, he said.

After struggling with ratings since taking over for "Larry King Live" three years ago, the CNN show "Piers Morgan Live" is coming to an end.
Morgan broke the news to the New York Times, saying Americans didn't necessarily want to hear a Brit debating controversial American topics, especially Morgan's adamant stance for gun control. "It's been a painful period and lately we have taken a bath in the ratings," the host admitted.
Late-night comic Chelsea Handler had some fighting words for Piers Morgan Wednesday night, and boy did the fur fly! She ripped into the CNN anchor from the get-go, asking, "What are you looking at?" Morgan replied, "Well, you've either had plastic surgery or a makeover, because you look really hot today." Ouch!
Then they went after each other's reputations. The "Chelsea Lately" host hurled, "Oh, you're so annoying. You're so obnoxious. You wonder why everybody hates you! I specifically covered up so you couldn't look at me and undress me with your molester eyes."
Jones ranted more than debated, insisting "more guns means less crime" and firearms protect against "tyrannical government and street thugs."
CNN host Piers Morgan landed in a Twitter war with One Direction and their fans last week after recommending David Beckham retire from soccer. One Direction fans are apparently also fans of the handsome soccer star.
Soon enough, the boy band's followers had the phrase "Piers Morgan is smelly" trending worldwide. The TV personality told "Extra's" Mario Lopez, "Nobody warned me that there are five of them and each of them has 7 or 8 million followers on Twitter. They have this army of mad fans called Directioners."
"The fury, I really don't understand the fury," she told Piers Morgan. "I don't understand it. I don't get it... I was shocked, saddened. Not angry. Saddened and really shocked. But you know what? You can't expect everyone to agree with you."
Watch the clip!
"Extra" host Mario Lopez spoke remotely with Piers Morgan, who is covering all the action at the Republican National Convention in Tampa.
"It's very exciting," said Morgan. "Everyone's who's anyone in the media or politics is down here. I always think politics is show business for ugly people!"
As news spread of a gunman opening fire at a midnight showing of "Dark Knight Rises" in an Aurora, Colo. movie theater in early Friday morning, killing at least 12 people, Hollywood reacted via their Twitter accounts.
Ellen DeGeneres wrote, "The news from Denver is just devastating. My heart is with the families affected by this senseless tragedy."
Olivia Munn, whose film "Magic Mike" is also in theaters now, echoed Evans' sentiment. "My sincerest condolences to the victims and families in Colorado. So sad, so mindless," she tweeted.
"America's Got Talent" judge Sharon Osbourne chatted with "Extra's" Terri Seymour at The Grove about the show's new judge, Howard Stern, and her recent Twitter feud with Piers Morgan over Madonna's Super Bowl halftime performance.
Osbourne tweeted that she thought Madonna was a queen, to which Morgan replied on Twitter, "Queen of what? Lip-synching?"
Sharon said, "He is such a miserable old Englishman. He needs a good kick in the backside. And I'm the person to do it."
As for Stern taking Piers' place on "America's Got Talent," Osbourne doesn't know what to expect. "I have no idea what kind of judge Howard is going to be -- but if he gets out of line, I'm going to put him in his place... with my foot in his a**!"

..I'm out.
Yes, it's been months since I posted here, but just in case there are still some of you out there following me, a little update:
I've been working like a madwoman here in the Great White North. Work is going great & I have been getting tremendous satisfaction from it, in a way that I haven't felt in ages. I have had few distractions up here, and evidently that has been great for me. I've made tremendous progress on my book & have gotten some good feedback on what I've done so far. I feel very confident in my ideas, and more importantly, I feel very confident in myself. This is new territory & I love it.
I got a new job, in a much warmer location! Most importantly, it's a permanent professor gig at a great school. I am thrilled and also relieved. All this moving around has been exhausting—financially, physically, emotionally. So I can't wait for August when I will move to a city known for its music…
DS dumped me early in December. We had had a tough few months, but I was confident we could shake it & move along. I still—unfortunately I guess—feel that way. And so it's been a very painful winter/spring for me. I've tried to throw myself into work & the good feelings I have about my new life in the new city with the new job, but it's still very rough.
I guess one really interesting thing about my time here in my scholarly isolation is that I have learned to enjoy my solitude. Sure, I obsessively check Facebook & Twitter, IM, etc. so I'm not exactly alone alone. Yet I have had many days over the past nine months when the only human beings I have spoken to are the bus driver who takes my ticket & the Starbucks barista who takes my order. And you know what? It's actually OK.
Thanks for following me all this time. Drop me a note (picablog at gmail) if you'd like info on how to follow the "real" me.
DS and I leave for our European boondoggle tomorrow, so get used to this week's pattern of very little posting.
Photos from the trip might get posted from time to time, but you're better off checking my Flickr. Drop me an email (picablog on gmail) for the link.

SALEM – Hunters who fail to report deer and elk hunt results by the deadline will face a $25 fine, according to a rule adopted last week by the state Fish and Wildlife Commission.
Hunters who fail to report their 2012 deer and elk tags by the deadline – Jan. 31, 2013 for most tags – will have to pay the one-time $25 fee to purchase a 2014 hunting license. Those licenses go on sale Dec. 1, 2013.
The Oregon Legislature gave ODFW the ability to charge a penalty fee of up to $25 last year. ODFW staff had proposed a $10 penalty fee. Commissioners voted to set the fee at $25 as they felt hunters who were not reporting would be more likely to take notice of the requirement with a higher fee. Some hunters also testified in favor of the higher fee.
Hunters can report online or by calling 1-866-947-6339. The automated system used for hunters that report by phone will soon be replaced by customer service representatives who can take hunt results over the phone, which should make things easier for any hunters that had trouble with the automated system.
Reporting hunt results for all deer, elk, pronghorn antelope, cougar, bear and turkey tags purchased – even when tags go unfilled or the buyer never went hunting – has been mandatory for several years. ODFW needs the information to determine harvest and effort levels, estimate populations and set tag numbers. Last year, the fourth year of "mandatory reporting" with no penalty, results were reported on only 41 percent of tags purchased.
Deer and elk tags are some of the most under-reported, and information from these hunts is critical for setting tag numbers and seasons. Despite heavy promotion of the requirement and incentives for reporting, the reporting rate still isn't high enough for ODFW to use the data. Another problem is that hunters who are successful are more likely to report than those that didn't fill their tag, which skews harvest numbers.
ODFW has continued to survey hunters through phone calls to get harvest data, but needs to phase out the expense of the calls. Many hunters are hard to reach by phone, with more relying on cell phones and fewer providing those numbers with their license.Read more on bluemountaineagle.com.

This Root Beer Recipe is Our Best Yet!
by Kimberly Gallagher
In the fall, the plants return their vital energy to their roots as they prepare for the cold, dormant winter. So this is the optimal time to dig and harvest the roots burdock, dandelion, comfrey… Sassafras, Sarsaparilla…
What more delicious way to bring the nourishing, healing properties of the roots into our diet than making our own… Homemade Root Beer?
Want to know how to make root beer?
When we simmer the roots to bring their flavors into our soda syrup we're also extracting the vitamins and minerals and other healing components into the water.
In this recipe, I've combined sassafras and sarsaparilla with burdock, licorice and astragulus to make a great root beer recipe, a nourishing healing fall tonic.
Sassafras root is an alterative, meaning it will induce change to bring about health.
Sarsaparilla will help purify the blood and also tone the urino-gential tract and the nervous system.
Burdock and astragalus are nourishing for the immune system and licorice is calming and thirst quenching. All the roots also bring numerous vitamins and minerals to the brew.
After we've created this healthy syrup we will then ferment the brew for several days, adding all those great microorganisms that enhance our digestion.
As you can see, this root beer recipe is much more than a delicious family treat; it is truly a fall health tonic!
So, let's get on to the root beer recipe....
This recipe is adapted from a root beer recipe in Stephen Cresswell's Homemade Root Beer Soda and Pop and my experience in a soda making class taught by Jennifer Sundstrom and an article called Artisanal Home Soda Fermentation by Charles Eisenstein that can be found on the Weston Price Foundation website.
The process takes a couple of weeks; so don't get started just before leaving on vacation.
Here's how to make root beer...
STEP 1: Creating Culture
The first step in learning how to make root beer in this root beer recipe is to create your soda culture. To do so you will need:
Fill the mason jar to 3/4 full with filtered water (it's best if you can remove the chlorine).
Add 1 Tablespoon of ginger and 2 teaspoons of sugar.
Cover with cheese cloth and allow to sit out for 24 hours.
Each morning for a week you will add another 2 teaspoons of sugar and 2 teaspoons of ginger.
Stir well when you add these ingredients and then stir a couple more times during the day.
After a week it should become slightly bubbly and pleasant smelling. At this point it is ready to be used in your soda making. If you are not going to use it all right away, you can cap it and keep it in your refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
STEP 2 of the root beer recipe: Making the Root Beer
The next step is to create your syrup. For this root beer syrup you will need:
Put 1⁄2 gallon of filtered water in a large pot. Add your roots. (Feel free to add different roots or omit any of these you don't enjoy. This is just a recipe to get you started.)
Bring the water to a boil. Turn down to a simmer and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes.
Stir in your sugar or other sweetener.
(Remember that the microorganisms are going to consume this sugar during the process of fermentation and transform it. This is what creates the soda's fizz. So refined sugar is not as bad a choice as it is for non-fermented foods.)
Continue to steep for about 4 hours.
Taste what you've created. Does the root beer taste seem strong enough? If not maybe you want to make and add another root decoction or steep bit longer. (This is not an absolute process.)
Pour this liquid into a gallon jar.
Fill the jar almost to the top (you'll need to leave some space to add your cup of culture) with cool filtered water, and allow the liquid to cool to room temperature.
Now add your one cup of culture (don't worry if some of the ginger gets into your brew it won't be enough to add it's flavor).
Stir well. Cover with cheesecloth and allow to sit out on your counter. Leave the brew to sit for 3-7 days, stirring well 2 or 3 times a day.
The longer it sits the more it will ferment and the more of the sugars will be consumed. If you want a sweeter soda stop the fermentation earlier. For my root beer I only let it sit until it started bubbling about 3 days.
Taste your soda after 3 days and see if you like it. Bottle it when you are ready.
To bottle the soda, strain it and then pour it into some kind of bottle that can seal. You can use these fancy sorts of bottles (available at home brewing supply stores) or simply well cleaned bottles with screw tops the options are many.
Leave the bottles to sit out overnight (or longer if it is not fizzy enough after one day). The fermentation process will continue and the closed bottles will trap the bubbles, so your soda will turn out nicely carbonated.
Use caution when opening your sodas. If you're worried about too much carbonation put a bowl over the top and a bowl underneath, in case they fizz over the top of the bottle. I've found this isn't as necessary with the root beer as with the fruit sodas since the fruits themselves add so much extra sugar. If your sodas are as fizzy as you like in the morning, put them into the fridge to slow the fermentation process.
Be aware bottles left too long on the counter can explode if the pressure builds up too much. Also, the fermentation process will continue in the fridge, though much more slowly. Bottles left too long in the fridge may also explode. So don't forget to drink the soda after you've made it.
Pour into a glass with ice and enjoy, or serve to your eager children or guests. We had a work party this year to clear some ivy out from under our trees and this root beer recipe went great with the pizza!
I wish you success and hope you enjoyed this article in how to make root beer! We hope this root beer recipe is the hit of your party.

Digital goods pricing model
Selling intangible digital goods – eg music/film/TV show downloads/online streaming or ebooks – is not quite the same as selling tangible physical goods – eg music CDs, film DVDs, TV show boxsets or hardcover/paperback books.
The sale price of a tangible physical good – a paperback copy of Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, for example – is made up of the following components:
a) The material resources ie the papers, glue, threads, etc that are put together into a copy of a book.
b) The exhaustible resources ie use of labour, machines and land in making, storing, delivering that copy of a book, etc
c) The intelligence/expression ie the idea of the story, the inspiration of the design for the book, etc.
When a consumer buys a physical good, a portion of the price transfers the ownership of the material resources that make up the good. Another portion of the price covers the costs of exhaustible resources used in making the good. The third portion of the price accounts the intelligence/expression component of the good.
An intangible digital good does not have the first component. So when someone buys an ebook version of To Kill a Mockingbird, he pays for the use of labour, machines and land in making, storing and delivering the book as well as the ideas and inspiration for the book story and design. Hence, the perfect pricing model for selling digital goods is licensing.
The main issue book/music/film/TV publishers/producers have with digital goods is that consumers who paid for the goods can easily share them with other consumers. They may not realise that it is also very easy for consumers to share physical goods.
John who has paid for an ebook version of To Kill a Mockingbird can share the book with Jane by lending her his ebook reader loaded with the title or by letting her to copy the ebook file into her own reader. Similarly, if John paid for paperback copy of the book, he can share the book by lending Jane his copy or by letting her make a copy of the book using a photocopier. The technology today is advanced enough for consumers to easily share digital and physical goods.
If publishers/producers want to make Jane pay for reading book, they should just make it easy and cheap enough for her to pay for it instead of borrowing or copying from John. It does not matter if it is in ebook or in paperback.

A Mexican immigrant who had a romantic relationship with Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu has filed a $1 million notice of claim against the sheriff and the county.
Sheriff's officials say the precursor to a lawsuit was received by their office Monday, but they declined further comment.
Last month, Babeu announced that he's gay and once had a relationship with Jose Orozco while the immigrant was a campaign volunteer.
Orozco has accused Babeu of threatening to deport him if he revealed their relationship. Babeu has denied any wrongdoing and has asked for an independent investigation into the matter.
The Pinal County Sheriff's Office responded to the claim with the following statement:
"A notice of claim was provided to our office earlier today regarding this matter. The Arizona Republic and several other news entities have already confirmed the photos were shopped around for months to various news stations in an effort to bring out the fact Sheriff Babeu is gay. The photos were sent privately and never meant to be displayed publicly. Nobody ran with a story because it's the sheriff's personal and his private life. Only after the story was turned down by media outlets was the allegation made about Sheriff Babeu threatening Jose with deportation.
"Sheriff Babeu has said from the beginning that Jose is in the United States legally and has been since he first met him. After the story broke, both Jose and his attorney confirmed Jose is here legally in the United States. Sheriff Babeu and his attorney Chris DeRose have also both said that Jose was never threatened with deportation as it has been reported.
"Now during the past few days, Jose's attorney has said the word deportation was never used. It is clear that the photos and subsequent attacks are meant to harm the sheriff personally and politically. Sheriff Babeu personally requested a comprehensive investigation by the Attorney General's Office to clear his name and seek possible charges. The case has been assigned to the solicitor general and until the investigation is done, Sheriff Babeu will not be making any further statement to members of the media regarding this issue."
Orozco's claim creates new complexities for Babeu, who's completing his first term as sheriff and is running for a congressional seat in northwest Arizona.

What is happening at the Erik Nielsen Whitehorse International Airport?
Highways and Public Works' Aviation Branch works hard to provide safe, efficient and well-maintained airport facilities so that Yukon's air travellers continue to enjoy reliable transportation options now and into the future.
This summer, we are investing again in improvements at the airport by upgrading the concrete apron area where planes park in front of the air terminal building.
During construction, there will only be one passenger bridge available and at times air carriers may be required to escort passengers across the tarmac.
The department apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause passengers travelling through the Erik Nielsen Whitehorse International Airport.
Highways and Public Works thanks Transport Canada for their funding contribution through the Airport Capital Assistance Program (ACAP) to make this project possible.
If you have questions or suggestions for improvements to our facility and services, please submit them to our E-mail address firstname.lastname@example.com

Its true that the BMW M3 E92 caught all the attention lately, but the "old" E90 is still as impressive as the E92. So you shouldn't be surprised about the fact that the American tuner SR Auto Group decided to offer an update package for it. And as any sports car look better in black, this is the color uses for this "Sinister M3."
When it comes about a great sports car one of the first thing that catches your attention are the wheels. And for this package SR dropped the standard ones and replaced them with a new set from BBS. The wheels are in CH-R design and of course they are painted in black.
The next step was to adjust the exterior look. But as the M3 is very impressive from factory there wasn't much job to do: the tuner only added a new front lip and rear diffuser. All these were combined with s matte black paint with a touch of carbon fiber.

Had a great time at a house party! The host winked at me, then disappeared right before midnight. When we did the countdown and the clock stuck the power went out and everyone started screaming. Meanwhile I knew it was him so I didn't panic, 10 seconds later the power came back on and he came up the stairs laughing. It was great :)

Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith is expected to be moved by tomorrow's NBA trade deadline and the rumors are in full force. There are multiple teams that are interested in the Hawks star, but no team has received better news than the Milwaukee Bucks just before tomorrow's deadline.
While the Brooklyn Nets have expressed interest in signing Smith to the longterm deal that he is hoping for, Smith reportedly would be willing to resign with Milwaukee, according to CBSSports.com's Ken Berger.
Josh Smith is not opposed to Milwaukee — the city or the weather — and likes the Bucks' roster enough to re-sign there if traded, a league source told CBSSports.com Wednesday.
With less than 24 hours before Thursday's 3 p.m. ET trade deadline, the Bucks, Suns and Nets are the most realistic suitors in a trade for Smith, sources said. Milwaukee's chances of landing the 6-9 forward were viewed in some league circles as diminished by the team's small-market and cold-weather status. Smith, however, is more interested in the talent he'll be playing with than geography.
That is great for the Bucks to hear. In Milwaukee, the Hawks star would join forces with Brandon Jennings. It would give Milwaukee a great one-two punch that would excite the fan base and potentially take the franchise to the next level.
Stay tuned to FanSided.com through the NBA trade deadline for up to date trade rumors and news.

My entry for the `BurdaStyle Sewing Vintage Modern Contest 2013` – Option Three: Create your own variation project using one or more master pattern(s) and/or variation project(s) from the BurdaStyle Sewing Vintage Modern book.
For the bodice, I followed the Jackie O dress pattern in the book, that had me change up the pattern for
Louisa Drop-waist dress. I added a hole in the top back, that required a piece of facing there as well. I added darts in the front and the back, mostly following the bodice of the Elizabeth gathered waist dress. I added the hook and eye.
For the skirt, I did a couple inches, shortened version of the Elizabeth Gathered waist dress. I changed it to place an invisible zipper in the back. I also followed the Louisa drop-waist dress' belt, but had to shorten the length, since I added the darts. I also had to surge the edge of the skirt seam inside, because of the fabric I used.

Begrudgingly for the past eighteen months I had been waking at the crack of dawn to teach adults English in South Korea. Now, waking from the hangover of Vegas I finally had a reason to rise. We were in Flagstaff, Arizona. Base camp for the Grand Canyon, part of the iconic Route 66 and the first International Dark Sky Community*.
Flagstaff had only been our home for a mere seven hours and now in the darkness of our motel room a commotion interrupted the stillness of the night. On and on it cut through the silence until finally we put an end to its poisonous voice.
We were an hour from the southern rim of the Grand Canyon and the alarm was an enemy to aid us.
Sunrise, Ulleungdo
Rarely do I rise before 10 a.m.
But the guidebook said Jeju's 'Ilchulbong'–a volcanic crater on the East Coast in a town called Seongsan–was the first place on the island to spot the "orange fires of dawn." A sunrise sounded good. Really good. So after the Busan plane touched down on a Saturday afternoon, I caught a bus from Jeju-city that rolled along the North coast for an hour or so, checked into a minbak, and wandered out to find dinner–with a crater view, of course.
It was just a light snack.
