Fish oil is the "king" of natural supplements—supporting the heart, mind, eyes, skin and more.*
Triple strength for more benefits
Fish oil is high in two important omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA. Our Triple Strength Fish Oil gives you three times as much EPA and DHA than our regular-strength fish oil softgel. That means you can take fewer softgels to receive the same healthy benefits. You'll get 950 mg of omega-3s in every softgel. Each softgel provides 625 mg of EPA and 244 mg of DHA.
Regular Strength Fish Oil 1,000 mg provides 300 mg of omega-3 fatty acids (providing 180 mg of EPA and 120 mg of DHA) for comparison's sake.
Our Double Strength Fish Oil 1,200 mg provides 600 mg of omega-3s (providing 360 mg EPA and 240 mg DHA).
Since many experts recommend about 1,000 mg of omega-3s from fish oil per day, you only need to take one Triple Strength Fish Oil softgel.
Keeps the heart ticking
More than 30 years ago, researchers first discovered fish oil's benefits on heart health. Since then, several well-conducted randomized controlled trials have shown fish oil contributes to good cardiovascular health.*
Supports joint health
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids found in omega-3s from fish oil support key inflammatory mediators in your body. Fish oil can help provide more comfortable and freer movement.*
Maintains a sharp mind
A recent study comparing fish consumption to cognitive performance found that those who ate up to 5 ounces of fish or more per week had significantly less cognitive decline.*
Good for the eyes, skin and more
Studies show those who eat the highest amount of fish maintain better visual function in older age. The omega-3s in fish oil may also benefit those with dry, flaky skin, dull hair and soft nails.*
Less expensive than eating fish
Eating fresh fish can be expensive. Lindberg Triple Strength Fish Oil softgels are a much better value. For the same amount of EPA and DHA in one Triple Strength Fish Oil softgel, you'd have to eat about 2 ounces of salmon, 5 ounces of sea bass, 12 ounces of tuna or 19 ounces of cod. Plus, you'd spend way more money!
More precise levels of omega-3s
The amount of EPA and DHA in fresh fish varies depending on the species and location of the fish. Salmon, for example, has a high amount of EPA and DHA, while cod has a low amount. Taking fish oil softgels ensures you get the same amount of EPA and DHA every time.
Highest purity - better than fish
To make the purest fish oil possible, we start with small, cold-water fish that are low on the food chain. We take an extra step to molecularly distill the fish oil to ensure it exceeds strict U.S. standards for potential contaminants.
Start improving your health today
For mere pennies a day, Lindberg Triple Strength Fish Oil gives you a convenient way to add important omega-3s to your diet for overall health and longevity.* Order yours today!

For most of us, life is a constant work in progress. As I wrote in my post about New Year's resolutions, we typically see a gap between who we are and who we want to be. For many of us, that includes not just ourselves but our life situation. We are constantly looking for ways to make our careers more fulfilling, to pursue our passions, to give more time to our families and friends. As we get older, that can be increasingly challenging. We get busier in our careers and our time dries up. As our families grow and our expenses rises, we become more dependent on our jobs and less willing to make disruptive changes. Life takes on an inertia of its own.
I am wrestling with that right now. I love serving in the Air Force and am committed to my military career, but I have wide-ranging interests and passions that extend beyond my day job. The irony is that many of these passions, like foreign languages and regional studies, are intimately linked to my vision of officership and service to the country–but have virtually nothing to do with my day job. Even reading and writing novels, which on the surface might seem disconnected from military service, is essential; it is through fiction that much of my deepest thinking and personal engagement with world affairs has developed. But because these things are all outside my daily job, the only time I can allocate to them is what I can scrape together outside of work, and those few hours largely belong to my family.
I have bookcases all over my house, but the one immediately beside my desk is given to current projects–the ones I'm most passionate about. Here is an impromptu picture taken this morning:
On the top shelf are the religious and political classics I return to time and again–some of which I've read cover-to-cover, and some of which I need to spend more time with. Beside them are several DVD series that I want to watch, to expand my knowledge of history. The second shelf is devoted to Arabic and Turkish. I spent much of the last year learning Turkish, but after a planned trip to Turkey was canceled because of work requirements, I was pretty crushed and stopped studying; I also felt like I was losing my Arabic, because I didn't have sufficient time to do both. Even now that I'm focusing on Arabic again, I'm struggling to find time to work through any of these resources. The third shelf consists of books I want to read or am currently reading; I am halfway through many of them, but set them down when I got busy. On the right are books about the Mongols and ancient Persian empires, which are research for my next novel. Stacked in front of them are reference books for a nonfiction book I am trying to write about Islam. The stacked DVDs are a Turkish TV series dubbed in Syrian Arabic, for language practice. Finally, the fourth shelf is my writing library. The two books that are pulled and turned sideways are about nonfiction writing and book proposal writing, also for my planned Islam book.
This all might look audacious to someone who thinks I should simply focus on my job. But for someone who is dual-hatted as a Middle East Regional Affairs Specialist and seeks higher-level government service in the future, the bookshelf does make a kind of sense: slow, steady growth in relevant languages, the study of politics and culture and military science, and the ability to translate my knowledge into writing for the benefit of others. Unfortunately, achieving any of this is maddeningly difficult.
I'm not sure why I'm sharing this. Maybe nobody cares, but then again, maybe everybody else can relate and we can at least bond over the cruelty of time.
On the other hand, I have a lot to be thankful for. I'm so grateful I was chosen for the Olmsted scholar program, when I did have abundant time to pursue these passions. As we enter an age of budget cuts and downsizing, I hope the DOD realizes how important these programs are–and what a tremendous education investment is. And as much as I love my current C-17 squadron, I'm looking forward to attending SAASS this summer. I can't believe they're going to pay me to read books for a year.

Lest the fundamental idea of the Buddha´s doctrines be misunderstood, the reader is warned to take the term ¨self¨in the sense in which the Buddha uses it.... The Buddha denies the existence of a ¨self¨ as it was commonly understood in his time; he does not deny man's mentality, his spiritual constitution, the importance of his personality, in a word, his soul.
Buddhism is monistic. It claims that man's soul does not consist of two things, of an atman (self) and of a manas (mind or thoughts), but that there is one reality, our thoughts, our mind or manas, and this manas constitutes the soul.
Accordingly, the translation of "atman" by "soul", which would imply that the Buddha denied the existence of the soul is extremely misleading.
Thank you and much metta

Kitchen Companion: Your Safe Food Handbook
|This text-only version of the Kitchen Companion has been optimized for accessibility. The illustrated PDF version is recommended for printing and for most other purposes.
"Food safety." You hear a lot about it…and you know a lot about it. But as with any comprehensive topic, there may be simple steps that are second nature that you've practiced forever — like hand washing — and then there may be current or updated information that is less familiar, or that may have changed since the last time you looked.
That's what Kitchen Companion: Your Safe Food Handbook is all about. This food safety handbook contains all the basic information you need to know about food safety…some old, some new…and all in one place.
Between the information-rich chapters and the easy index in the back, Kitchen Companion will likely answer all of your food safety questions. But if not…don't miss the food safety contact information on page 44. The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service is always there to help.
So read on…and Be Food Safe.
A Special Note to Those Most "At Risk"
Some people are at higher risk for developing foodborne illness. These include pregnant women and their unborn babies, newborns, young children, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems.
If you — or someone you care for — are in one of these at-risk groups, it's important to pay extra attention to handling food safely. For more on those most at risk, visit www.fsis.usda.gov.
About USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS)
FSIS is the public health agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture that is responsible for ensuring that the Nation's commercial supply of meat, poultry, and processed egg products is safe, wholesome, and correctly labeled and packaged.
FSIS focuses on inspecting and protecting the U.S. food supply…and educating consumers about safe food handling and reducing the risks of foodborne illness. Visit FSIS online at www.fsis.usda.gov.
FOODBORNE BACTERIAThere are two kinds of foodborne bacteria: one that spoils your food and one that makes you sick. It's good to be familiar with both…but it's critical that you follow safe food handling practices to keep the second one at bay.
Foodborne Illness Often called "food poisoning," foodborne illness comes from a food you eat. It's caused by ingesting pathogenic bacteria.
Spoilage BacteriaSpoilage bacteria are bacteria that cause food to go bad - in other words, to "spoil." With spoilage bacteria, the food looks or smells funny or bad, so you know to throw it out. These bacteria can grow at lower temperatures — even in the refrigerator. But while they can make food unappealing and inedible…they do not usually cause illness.
Pathogenic BacteriaThese are the ones you need to watch out for — in fact, it's pathogenic bacteria that the food safety precautions throughout this handbook are intended to prevent. You can't see, smell, or taste these pathogens — and this makes them difficult to detect. What's more, they cause a variety of foodborne illnesses — and can make you really, really sick.
Pathogenic Bacteria: The Cause of Foodborne IllnessPathogenic bacteria cause illness — and they can get in food in a number of ways. Sometimes these bacteria occur naturally and are destroyed by cooking food to safe temperatures. Pathogenic bacteria can also end up contaminating food when proper guidelines for cleaning hands, surfaces, and utensils and for avoiding cross-contamination are not followed.
About Mold on Food
Molds are not bacteria. To learn about mold on food, visit www.fsis.usda.gov/fact_sheets/molds_on_food/index.asp .
Foodborne Illness: Know the Signs and Symptoms…and Take ActionThe signs and symptoms of foodborne illness range from upset stomach, diarrhea, fever, vomiting, abdominal cramps, and dehydration to more severe illness — even death. If you become ill and believe your illness is due to a food product:
Foodborne Illness in the United States The food supply in the United States is safe. However, when certain disease-causing bacteria or pathogens contaminate food, they can cause foodborne illness.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 48 million persons get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 people die from foodborne illness and infection each year. Many of these are very young, very old, or have weakened immune systems and may not be able to fight infection normally.
Since foodborne illness can be serious — or even fatal — it is important for you to know and practice safe food handling behaviors to help reduce your risk of accidentally getting sick from contaminated food.

SHOPPING FOR FOODFor consumers, food safety most likely begins in the supermarket aisle. Whether you're doing a quick trip to pick up dinner ingredients…or tackling a week's worth of grocery shopping all at once, there are a few easy steps you can follow to ensure that the food you bring home will arrive there safely.
At the Store
Cross-Contamination Cross-contamination is the transfer of harmful bacteria to a food from other foods, cutting boards, utensils, surfaces, or hands.
It is prevented by keeping food separated and by keeping hands, utensils, and food handling surfaces clean.
Transporting GroceriesOnce your groceries are packed for the trek home, there are some easy "timing" tips you should follow to continue to maintain their safety.
Arriving HomeWhen you get home, don't get caught up reading the mail! Unload your groceries right away to keep them safe, and refrigerate or freeze all perishables.
Focus on: The "Danger Zone" Throughout the Kitchen Companion, there are references to keeping food out of the "Danger Zone." Understanding the "Danger Zone" is critical — because bacteria can multiply rapidly in any perishable food that is left in the "Danger Zone" (between 40 and 140 °F) for more than 2 hours. (See Remember the 2-Hour Rule. ) The "Danger Zone" is a potential risk for cold food that goes above 40 °F and hot food that falls below 140 °F. However, it's easy to avoid the "Danger Zone": just keep hot food hot and cold food cold!
(Tabular version of Danger Zone graphic)
About Food LabelsProduct Dating
The dates on labels have different meanings. Here's how to decipher them:
Ready to Eat — or Not?
Check labels carefully. Some products may appear to be precooked or browned, but are raw and not ready to eat. These foods must be fully cooked for safety. Unless a product is labeled as "fully cooked," the food should be handled and prepared no differently than raw products.
Safe Handling Instructions
These guidelines on raw meat and poultry provide specific information for handling and preparation. Following these instructions is particularly important for consumers in at-risk groups.
What is "Organic"?
For more information, visit www.ams.usda.gov/nop.
[Top of Page]
STORING FOODThe food you store falls into three basic "storage categories."
Refrigerated Perishable FoodFood safety is the best reason ever to "chill out"! Follow these basic guidelines to protect your perishables — and yourself and your family. And remember: always refrigerate perishable food within 2 hours (1 hour when the temperature is above 90 °F).
It's a Date!
Frozen FoodFor long-term storage of many perishable foods, rely on the freezer. Food stored constantly at 0 °F or below will always be safe. Only the quality suffers with lengthy freezer storage.
Freezer Facts
Your Refrigerator and Freezer: Take Their Temperatures! It's common to assume that your refrigerator's temperature control dial keeps food cold enough — but this isn't necessarily true. "Built-in" temperature control dials may not be effective, and if your refrigerator isn't cooling to 40 °F or below, you're providing a haven for bacteria to grow.
Shelf-Stable FoodFood that doesn't need to be refrigerated or frozen must still be stored with care. Follow these basic guidelines and you'll have food safety in the bag (or can)!
Botulism Alert
The greatest danger in canned goods is a toxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacteria. Never use food from containers that show possible "botulism" warnings:
Play it safe — and never taste it. Even a tiny amount of botulinum toxin can be deadly. Double bag the cans and jars in plastic bags that are tightly closed. Then place in a trash receptacle for non-recyclable trash outside of the home. Keep out of reach of humans and pets.
Common Sense Caution
If you're not sure how old a food is, or fear that it may not have been properly refrigerated or has been left out too long, don't taste it! Instead, remember the "golden rule" of food storage: When in doubt, throw it out!
[Top of Page]
FOOD PREPARATIONFood safety doesn't end with buying, transporting, and storing food safely. In fact, once you have food home…the safety of your food is, literally, in your hands. Follow these basic guidelines — and remember, safe food preparation always begins with "clean."
Keeping It CleanHandwashing
Surfaces and Utensils
Harmful bacteria can spread throughout the kitchen and get onto cutting boards, utensils, and countertops — causing "cross-contamination." (See inset box .) Keep raw meat, poultry, fish, and their juices away from other food — especially ready-to-eat food.
Cutting Boards
Proper cutting board "care-and-feeding" is a key component of preventing cross-contamination. Here's how:
Kitchen Cleanup
Preparation Tips for ProduceFresh fruits and veggies are nutritional mainstays. Here's how to make sure they're safe:
ThawingGoing from "frozen to thawed" needs to be accomplished safely! There are three ways to thaw — and because bacteria can multiply rapidly at room temperature, none of these methods involve the kitchen counter.
In the Refrigerator: This is the safest way to thaw meat and poultry. Take the food out of the freezer and thaw it in the fridge. Place it on a plate or in a pan to catch any juices that may leak. Normally, it will be ready to use the next day.
In Cold Water: For faster thawing, put the frozen package in a watertight plastic bag and submerge it in cold water; change the water every 30 minutes. The cold water slows bacteria that might be growing in the thawed portions of the meat while the inner areas are still thawing. Once thawed, cook it immediately.
In the Microwave: Follow instructions from the oven's manufacturer or owner's manual. Cook immediately after thawing in the microwave.
Refreezing Tips:
[Top of Page]
COOKING FOOD SAFELYCooking food to a safe temperature is the best way to ensure safety. That's because when food reaches a safe minimum internal temperature, bacteria that may be lurking are destroyed. Sound complicated? It's not. It's as easy as using a food thermometer.
About Food ThermometersFood safety experts agree: food is safe to eat when it is cooked or reheated to a high enough temperature to kill the harmful bacteria that cause foodborne illness.
The only accurate way to know if food is cooked safely is to measure the internal temperature of cooked meat, poultry, and egg products with a food thermometer. You can't tell by looking — use a food thermometer to be sure. Color and texture are not reliable indicators of safely cooked food.
How to Use a Food Thermometer
Tasting Tips
Done Versus Safe: What You Need to Know Webster's Dictionary defines "doneness" as the condition of being cooked to the desired degree. This includes subjective qualities, like a food's appearance, texture, and optimum flavor.
But whether a food is cooked to a "safe" degree is another story. The standard that ensures "safety" is not subjective at all. It's a simple matter of cooking food until the internal temperature reaches the level that ensures destruction of any potential pathogens, as measured with a food thermometer.
Visual signs of doneness should only be taken into consideration after the food has reached a safe temperature. And if you're thinking about leaving the food thermometer in the drawer, consider this: According to USDA research, 1 out of every 4 hamburgers turns brown before it reaches a safe internal temperature!
Safe Minimum Internal Temperature Chart
For oven roasting guidelines, see the roasting charts for turkey and meats and other poultry.
Avoid the "Danger Zone" — Keep Hot Food Hot After CookingThe possibility of bacterial growth is greater when food cools because the drop in temperature allows bacteria to thrive. There are two ways to keep cooked food from entering the "Danger Zone":
(Also see Focus On: The "Danger Zone" and Special Guidelines for Certain Food .)
[Top of Page]
SPECIAL GUIDELINES FOR CERTAIN FOODIn addition to the basic cooking guidelines (see Cooking Food Safely ) — there are some food-specific tips that can help you take special care with your culinary favorites.
Ground Meat and PoultryGround meat and poultry receive more handling than any other cut of meat or poultry. This means that hamburger has the opportunity for the introduction of more foodborne bacteria, too. Be diligent with general safe food handling guidelines, and keep these buying tips in mind:
HamEven though it is cured — for example, smoked, aged, or dried — ham can still contain foodborne bacteria. Follow these tips to keep it safe:
First and foremost, read the label.
RoastsSit-down dinners and special occasions aren't only about turkey! There are many other types of roasts that become the stars of the dinner table. Use these guidelines to "make the most of your roast"…safely.
Cooking Your Roast
Roasting is the recommended method for cooking tender meats.
To roast, meat is placed on a rack in a shallow, uncovered pan and is cooked by the indirect, dry heat of an oven. To keep the meat tender and minimize shrinkage due to the evaporation of moisture, an oven temperature of 325 °F should be used.
Watch Temperatures Closely Fat content (or a lack of it) affect the cooking times of a variety of meats — so keep a close eye on your roast to avoid overcooking, and use a food thermometer. And remember — regardless of the size of the roast, it still must be cooked to a safe internal temperature.
Turkey and Other PoultryNo doubt about it, millions of Americans view holiday time as "turkey time." Of the millions of turkeys produced every year, 30 percent are served at Thanksgiving and Christmas. But no matter when you are preparing and serving your turkey — gobble up these important facts first!
Choosing Your Turkey
When selecting your turkey, allow 1 pound of turkey per person for fresh or frozen; 1¼ pound per person for frozen pre-stuffed.
Thawing Your Turkey
For basic food thawing recommendations, see the Thawing section . In addition, keep these turkey-specific timelines and tips in mind:
Stuffing Your Turkey
Stuffing Other Poultry
Just as with turkey, it's important to take special precautions with other stuffed poultry to ensure they reach a safe minimum internal temperature. Bacteria grow particularly well in starchy or "bready" foods. In raw poultry, it can get into the stuffing, which in turn may not heat to safe temperatures when deep inside the bird. See Stuffing Your Turkey.
Got Giblets?
Remember to remove the giblets from the turkey cavities after thawing. Cook them separately.
Prevent Cross-Contamination!
Always wash hands with soap and warm water before and after contact with raw poultry or its juices. Wash cutting boards, dishes, utensils, the sink, and countertops with hot, soapy water.
Roasting Your Turkey
Leftover Turkey
Storing Leftover Turkey
Turkey connoisseurs agree: the leftovers are the best part! Here's how to store them safely:
Reheating Leftover Turkey
If you choose not to go the "cold turkey" route, use these guidelines for reheating.
A Note About Other Cooking Methods
Turkey isn't just about roasting anymore. There are several other ways to prepare the bird — use the chart for at-a-glance guidelines.
Cooking a Frozen Turkey: The cooking time will take at least 50% longer than recommended for a fully thawed turkey (see above chart).
For chicken roasting instructions, see chart.
Eggs and Egg-Rich FoodEggs can be part of a healthy diet. However, they are perishable just like raw meat, poultry, and seafood — and just like these foods, they must be properly refrigerated in the store and at home and cooked for safety. So get cracking!
Egg Recipes: Playing it Safe
Hot Dogs and Luncheon MeatHot dogs and luncheon meat are processed to last longer than other meat, but they can still spoil — or harbor foodborne bacteria. Here are tips for keeping them safe.
A Note for Those Most "At Risk": Those at increased risk of foodborne illness should reheat hot dogs and luncheon meat until steaming hot before eating, due to the threat of listeriosis.
LeftoversLeftovers are a staple in the kitchen. But they also need special care to ensure safe storage and reheating. These guidelines will help ensure their safety the "second time around."
"Take-Home" Leftover Alert: Doggie Bags are leftovers, too! Follow the same rules for storing and reheating.

SPECIFIC PREPARATION AND COOKING METHODS"Making dinner" can go far beyond simply putting a roast in the oven. These basic guidelines will keep your food safe as you use a variety of cooking and preparation techniques.
MarinatingMarinades can enhance the flavor of meat, poultry, or seafood. Follow these tips for marinating safely.
Microwave CookingOn a hungry night after a long day, a microwave oven can be a cook's best friend. While saving time in food preparation, it's still critical to make sure food reaches a safe minimum internal temperature throughout.
If you have any questions about proper microwave use, check the manufacturer's instructions.
Grilling and BarbecuingGrilling and summer sometimes seem synonymous —even though many cooks use their grills year round, whatever the weather. Whenever or wherever you're grilling, keep these hot tips in mind. (Traveling to the cookout? Don't miss Transporting Food .)
Grilling Guidelines:
SmokingSmoking is cooking food indirectly in the presence of a fire. Smoking is done much more slowly than grilling, so less tender meats benefit from this method — and result in a natural "smoke" flavoring permeating the meat. As with any method of cooking, follow the basic steps for safety before smoking:
Slow CookingIn today's multitasking world, there's nothing like having dinner cooked for you while you go about your day. That's the beauty of a slow cooker. As you take advantage of this time-saving wonder, here are tips for keeping your "crock o' dinner" safe.
[Top of Page]
SERVING FOOD SAFELY"Dinner is served!" More than ever, this happens in a wide variety of places, both indoors and out. But no matter where your meal is taking place…safety must still be the first item on the menu.
General Guidelines: Whatever or Wherever You're Serving!
Buffets…Cooking for GroupsFood sitting out for extended periods of time is a recipe for potential disaster. In addition to the basics for temperature and cleanliness, follow these guidelines when cooking for and/or serving groups:
Take-Out and Delivered FoodWith take-out or delivered food, the cook gets to take a shortcut with meal preparation — but not with food safety. Basic guidelines still apply.

TRANSPORTING FOOD: COOLERS, PICNICS, AND BAG LUNCHESWhen it comes to food, you can take it with you — but you need to do it safely, too. Whether you're tailgating, picnicking, or just packing your lunch, start with a clean cooler or lunch pack and begin by preparing food using standard "clean" practices. (See Food Preparation .) In addition, follow these special guidelines to keep your packed food safe…wherever your travels take you.
Bag LunchesBag lunches aren't just for school kids! No matter where you're carrying to, pack only the amount of perishable food that can be eaten at lunch to avoid worrying about the storage or safety of leftovers.
Cold Food:
Hot Food:
CoolersThe cooler is the key to keeping cold food out of the "Danger Zone!" Use an insulated cooler with sufficient ice or ice packs to keep the food at 40 °F or below.
Party's Over?

FOOD SAFETY FOR FOOD-BY-MAILWhether you're a giver or a receiver, food sent by mail is more popular than ever. But food safety still matters — especially with perishable foods. With a little groundwork, you'll be assured that the contents of the package on the doorstep are safe to eat.
Mail-Order Food:Before ordering, confirm that the company sends perishable items (like meat or poultry) cold or frozen and packed with a cold source. It should be packed in foam or heavy corrugated cardboard and should be delivered as quickly as possible — ideally, overnight. Also, take these precautions to ensure safe shipping:
Mailing Homemade Foods
For sending food safely, check out the packing and shipping tips at www.fsis.usda.gov/Fact_Sheets/mail_order_food_safety/
[Top of Page]
FOOD SAFETY IN AN EMERGENCYKeeping the food supply safe is important at all times — but sometimes, it is a greater challenge than others. These situations include power outages, natural disasters, and other emergencies. So be prepared…and be food safe.
Product RecallsWhen meat and poultry products are recalled, USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service notifies the public through a press release. The recall is posted on the FSIS Recall Web site: www.fsis.usda.gov/fsis_recalls/index.asp.
These recall announcements include:
Recall Rules of Thumb:
Power OutagesIt's a simple fact of modern life: sometimes the power goes out. This could be for a variety of reasons…but the actions to preserve your food remain the same.
In Case of Flood
In Case of FireThe general rule of thumb is to discard food that has been near a fire.

In the 1970s, Cecchi moved to the borough of Castellina in Chianti, an area which has traditionally produced Chianti Classico. In its cellar, equipped with the latest technology, the final part of the production cycle is carried out. The fermentation operations are carried out at the four commercial vineyards distributed in famous DOC zones in Tuscany and Umbria: Villa Cerna in the Chianti Classico region, Castello di Montauto at San Gimignano, Val delle Rose near Grosseto, and Tenuta Alzatura at Montefalco, in Umbria. Since 2004, following the death of Luigi, his sons Cesare and Andrea, along with their mother Anita, have run the company with enthusiasm and passion. View all Cecchi Wines
About TuscanyView a map of Tuscany wineries (TUSS-can-ee) Sangiovese. Most of the wine coming from Tuscany is made from some clone of this varietal, but a growing trend, started by the renegade winemakers of those Super Tuscans, is to incorporate more international varietals.
Notable FactsThe most well known sub-districts of Tuscany are Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano (note that Montepulciano here refers to the local village, not the grape variety found in the Italian region of Abruzzi). Wine labeled from these regions is DOC-regulated and Sangiovese-based blends. Quality wine from these DOC areas has been on the rise for decades, with top-notch winemakers and wineries shedding the low-quality image once held for Tuscan wine by producing consistently outstanding bottlings that range from deliciously drinkable to highly ageable. Newer to the scene are regions like Bohlgeri and the Maremma, home to of what are now termed "Super-Tuscans," named for the wine coming from the Tuscany area, but not following all of the DOC or DOCG laws required in Italy. In the 1970's, some pioneer winemakers began buying land outside of Chianti and Montalcino, and planting not only Sangiovese, but also international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The wine they produced only fit into the lowest Italian category of "vina da tavola," but the winemakers sold the wine for high prices, creating an almost cult following, and spurning a new wine category called IGT.
About Italy
A little ditty about Italy...This country has about as many wines as its had governments. With 20 different regions, hundreds of DOCs and even more indigenous varieties, the amount of wine made in Italy is mind-boggling. Most of the juice, however, remains in the country for thirsty Italians. Wine is food in Italy and its rare that a meal is consumed without a glass of vino. That said, it's not common to find many folks drinking wine without food either. In turn, it's a match, and a mighty good one at that. In fact, it's safe to say that Italian wine is a foodie wine – one that goes on the table for a myraid of meals.
For regions, the most popular are Tuscany (home of Chianti), Piedmont and the Tre-Venezie, which includes Veneto, Trentino Alto-Adige and Friuli. Other communes of note are in Southern Italy, and a few good wines are made elsewhere in the country. The islands of Sardinia and Sicily are members of the Italian winemaking community as well.

With the loss, Brevard falls to 10-6 on the season, 1-5 in South Atlantic Conference matches, while Carson-Newman improves to 11-5, 4-1 in conference play.
Ashlie Morrison added seven kills of her own to the match, while Brevard's preseason All-SAC selection Brooke Seaman had six sills and two blocks.
Bethany Stevenson set up the Brevard attack in the game with 26 assists, while Rebecca Schoonover and Lindsey Rogers both had great receiving games, with Schoonover having her third game this week with over 20 digs, making 21 on the afternoon, while Rogers added 12.
The Lady Eagles were led by Jasmine Clark on the afternoon with 15 kills, hitting 50.0%, while Katie Troyer and Jessica Schachleiter each recorded double-digit kill games with 13 and 11 respectively.
Stephanie Cutter handled the setting duties for Carson-Newman for the afternoon, racking up 39 assists, while Angelle Hayes tied Schoonover with a game-high 21 digs in the contest.
The Tornados and Eagles traded points in the first set with neither team really able to take advantage until a kill by Troyer led to a 3-0 run to give C-N the lead at 11-7.
Brevard was able to nibble the rest of the way throughout the first game as Larsen, Osby and Morrison kept the game within four, but Clark put away the first set, 25-19.
The second set was again close early as Morrison and Osby kept the Tornados tied early, 7-7.
From there, Carson-Newman went on an extended run, using a 12-5 spurt on kills by Clark and Troyer to go up 19-12.
A late rally by the Tornados as Stevenson fired in a service ace to put the game back within four at 22-18, but Troyer closed out the set off the assist by Troyer, 25-20.
Game three opened up with a pair of runs as Carson-Newman opened the frame with a 10-4 run capped off by an ace by MacKenzie Tyree.
Coach Skeffington's squad continued to fight back, bringing the game back within two at 15-13 on a service ace by Schoonover.
The Tornados completed the comeback, tying up the game on Chelsey Trojan's serve at 21.
Brevard tied the game up twice more at 22 and 23, but the Lady Eagles were able to eke the game out on Clark's kill to take the win, 25-23.
Brevard is back in action on Wednesday, October 7th, as they continue their five game homestand against Montreat College. First serve for the game in Boshamer Gymnasium is set for 7 p.m.

Answer: Microchips currently are made using a two dimensional (2D) process which means that circuits are all laid out on a single level of the chip. If microchips could be designed in three dimensions instead of just two, then you could build levels on top of each other. Continue reading

Beauty Top 5: Acne Treatments
Heat Rash
When temperature and humidity levels are high, skin heats up and flushing can occur on any area of the body—with or without a bumpy, inflamed rash. Apply a topical over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream for three days to bring down the inflammation. "If that doesn't help, you want to see a board-certified dermatologist for a prescription-strength hydrocortisone or antifungal, depending on what the rash was caused by," says New Jersey dermatologist Jeanine Downie, MD.
Although pimples can happen all year round, extra oil, heat, and sweat make them more prolific in the summer months. And unfortunately, they're not just limited to the face, says Downie. "There's also backne and buttne," she says. Regardless of where acne crops up, the treatment plan is the same: Use a glycolic or salicylic-acid cleanser to treat it and make sure everything you're using on your skin, from makeup to sunscreen, is oil-free so you don't further clog pores. "Masking with a glycolic is also good twice a week, for no more than five minutes," she says. It's also key not to overdry your skin or you will irritate your face and break out more. (Downie recommends using a light hyaluronic-acid serum to keep skin moisturized but not greasy.) More severe acne cases may require a topical prescription like benzoyl peroxide–packed BenzaClin or an oral antibiotic.

AMD has announced availability of its first six-core Opteron server processor (Istanbul) with Direct Connect Architecture for two-, four- and eight-socket servers.
Systems based on six-core AMD Opteron processors are expected to be available beginning later in the month from OEMs including Cray, Dell, Hewlett-Packard (HP), IBM and Sun Microsystems, along with support from motherboard and infrastructure partners. HE, SE and EE versions of the six-core AMD Opteron processor are planned for the second half of 2009, said AMD.
Six-Core AMD Opteron processors leverage existing platform infrastructure and a low-cost, power-efficient DDR2 memory architecture which can help lower system acquisition costs, highlighted AMD.
High performance computing (HPC), virtualization and database workloads can benefit from increased 4P Stream memory bandwidth of up to 60% enabled by HyperTransport Assist, which helps reduce processor to processor latency and traffic.
AMD Virtualization (AMD-V) technology and the AMD-P suite of power management features are available across all performance and power bands.
The new Six-Core AMD Opteron processor has up to 34 % more performance-per-Watt over the previous generation quad-core processors in the exact same platform, according to AMD.

Real Property Disposal
Chairman Coburn and Members of the Committee:
I am William Matthews, Assistant Commissioner of the General Services Administration's (GSA's) Office of Real Property Asset Management. I am pleased to appear before you to discuss GSA's real property portfolio and our management of these real property assets.
GSA is one of the largest public real estate organizations in the world, with an inventory consisting of 8,920 assets with over 342 million square feet of rentable space across all 50 states, 6 U.S. Territories, and the District of Columbia. We serve approximately 1 million Federal employees at 59 different agencies. Our portfolio consists primarily of office buildings, courthouses, laboratories, border stations, and warehouses.
While the composition of our portfolio is driven by customer needs, its performance is the result of our strategic approach to asset management which balances customer demand with market dynamics and the condition and performance of our assets.
Consistent with our core mission, GSA has been an active member of the Federal Real Property Council created in 2004 under Executive Order 13327, and has played a leadership role in establishing templates for Real Property Asset Management plans and identifying key elements appropriate for national-level inventory systems.
GSA has a robust inventory system that is capable of accurately and consistently reporting real property data and that meets the Federal Real Property Council's (FRPC's) inventory reporting requirements for twenty-three mandatory data elements.
Using the FRPC's government-wide standards, GSA's current inventory consists of 8,932 assets totaling 387,841,174 gross square feet (gsf) nationwide. When these assets are separated between leased and owned, the portfolio consists of 1,884 owned assets totaling 218,983,699 gsf and 7,048 leased assets representing 168,857,475 gsf. The annual operating costs for FY2005 were $1.5 billion, $800 million for government owned and $650 million for leased locations. The replacement value of the owned inventory is $37.2 billion.
GSA captures its inventory of real property assets in the System for Tracking and Administering Real Property (STAR). STAR is the primary tool GSA uses to track and manage our real property assets and to store inventory data, building data, customer assignment data and lease information for over 20,000 assignments. GSA purchased the STAR software program from a private sector application in the late 1990's, and specifically adapted it for GSA's business processes.
STAR provides Asset Business Team members, including GSA realty specialists, property managers, asset managers and portfolio managers, access to business data, thus supporting responsible asset management and the following functions:
- Business Management
- Space Management
- Occupancy Management
- Lease Management
- Security Management
Over four years ago GSA implemented a PBS portfolio strategy to restructure our portfolio of owned assets to consist of financially performing assets for which there is a long-term Federal need and to reinvest in these assets to optimize and preserve their value for customer agencies and taxpayers. We made progress across the country; and thus far we have:
• Reduced the percentage of underutilized and non-performing assets from 42 percent to 26 percent;
• Reduced vacant space from 9.2 percent to 6.8 percent, significantly below the 2005 industry average rate of 12.5 percent; and,
• Reported excess 204 assets and demolished 50 buildings and, as a result, eliminated 3.1 million rentable square feet of vacant space and achieved a cost avoidance of $400 million in capital reinvestment needs.
Based on our asset management practices and implementation of our portfolio strategy, we achieved a "fully effective" score from OMB's Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART) evaluation of GSA's real property asset management program.
Applying the Federal Real Property Council's definition of asset utilization, 96 percent of GSA's leased and owned assets are utilized. GSA has only 376 assets that are considered underutilized or not utilized. The majority of these properties fall into segmented categories as can be seen in the following chart.
As a result of GSA's efforts to restructure its portfolio, we have developed strategies to work out solutions for non-performing assets. These strategies range from cost containment, outleasing, exchanging assets, conveying assets to tenant agencies, to disposing of the asset. One-third or 125 of GSA's underutilized and unutilized assets have been reported excess and accepted for disposal. These assets account for almost 9 million gsf and $10.9 million in operating expenses that will be eliminated upon completion of the disposal action. Another 18 underutilized assets with approximately 1 million gsf and $1.5 million in operating costs are projected for disposal in the next five years pending customer relocation.
There were 89 leased facilities that were determined to be underutilized with operating costs totaling $6.2 million in FY2005. GSA eliminates vacant leased space by backfilling space with other customers, terminating the lease or vacant portion thereof or buying out the remaining lease term whenever possible. At the end of FY2005, GSA's leased vacancy rate was at a record low level (below 1.5%).
With an aging inventory it is imperative that we reinvest in our facilities to maintain a quality workplace for our client agencies. At any given time a significant portion of our vacant space is under renovation for our tenants. As of September 30, 2005, GSA had 21 assets vacated for major renovations accounting for almost 9 million gross square feet and $39.6 million in operating expenses. As the current projects are completed, the space will be backfilled and these assets will once again become utilized. At the same time, new projects will begin in different assets keeping the amount of assets that are underutilized due to major renovations fairly constant.
The remaining 123 underutilized assets have space that is vacant and available for assignment to tenants and do not yet have a backfill or disposal plan in place. However, this group accounts for less than 1.5 percent of GSA's assets. This category includes 76 buildings that are part of other facilities and cannot be easily separated and disposed of, 18 buildings that are active courthouses, and 16 buildings that were vacated because of hurricane Katrina and will be reoccupied. GSA is currently strategizing ways to eliminate the vacancy either through backfill or disposal for the remaining 13 underutilized assets.
GSA is a recognized industry leader in its disposal of underutilized assets and uses a four-step process: (1) Screening other Federal agencies for possible continued Federal need by another Federal agency, (2) screening for specific Public Benefit Conveyance opportunities for the property's reuse, (3) negotiating with the local community to promote the highest and best future reuse of the real property in question, and (4) taking the real property to the market to sell by sealed bid, public outcry auction, or Internet sale. We have had great success in Internet sales. An excellent example of this internet-based method is the on-line live auction of the Yeon Warehouse, a 75 year old industrial facility with 55,000 square feet of space in Portland, Oregon. This was an underutilized asset that we sold in 2005 for $1.75 million, 17 percent over fair market value and costing just 0.5 percent of the sales price. The $1.75 million will be deposited into the Federal Buildings Fund and thus be available for Congress to authorize and appropriate for reinvestment in other mission critical assets.
One of the significant challenges confronting GSA's efforts to dispose of underutilized assets is the funding required by our customers who must incur move and related costs. Often, many of the smaller tenants housed in an underutilized asset do not have sufficient resources to cover their physical or telecommunications move costs, or the additional rent they may incur should alternate housing be found in neighboring leased space.
We also are challenged to balance funding of projects for assets that we need to retain, such as those that will recapture vacant space, versus funding demolition of underutilized properties that remain vacant until they can be torn down or funding assets where environmental remediation is necessary prior to disposal.
GSA's Portfolio strategy calls for retention of assets for which there is a continuing federal need and that generate sufficient rental income to keep retained assets in good repair. Conversely, our strategy calls for divesting of buildings that do not generate enough rental revenue to cover necessary repair and operating costs, with some exceptions made for legacy assets. A divestiture of these public buildings has resulted in cost savings and has reduced the amount of vacant space in our inventory. This is prudent asset management and provides incentives to Asset Business Teams to make the right decision for each asset. GSA uses performance measures and benchmarks to monitor performance, shape direction and allow for midcourse corrections for both programs and projects. Locally and nationally, GSA uses performance information to influence asset strategies and make informed investment decisions. Operating costs, vacant space, and disposal cycle time are among the metrics that GSA routinely monitors.
Unless one of the special retention of proceeds authority apply, the net proceeds generated from the sale of GSA properties are directed for deposit into the Department of Interior's Land and Water Conservation Fund rather than the Federal Buildings Fund. Retention of proceeds is one of the most powerful incentives available for vigorous asset management. A specific example of this financial incentive is GSA's pending sale of its 2 million square foot facility known as the Middle River Depot in Baltimore County, Maryland. In fiscal year 2005, Congress specifically granted GSA the authority to dispose of the Middle River property and permitted GSA to deposit the proceeds of sale into the Federal Building Fund. This one-time retention of proceeds authority allows GSA to return funds to the Federal Buildings Fund that GSA can then use for its real property capital needs.
GSA is in a unique position with customer agency needs driving the composition of our real property inventory; housing our own internal functions is a secondary driver. Because we operate in a dynamic real estate environment with ever changing customer agency needs and missions, our portfolio must be able to adjust to changes in customer agencies' size, reductions of space and budgets, relocations, consolidations and changing agency missions. The challenge to effective portfolio management is to strike the proper balance between prudent investment and the ability to meet changing customer-agency needs. We will continue to employ national strategies of investing in performing assets, divesting under performing assets, and building flexibility into our portfolio to address changing priorities within the federal community. Despite these many challenges, and the fact that the amount of space needed by some agencies may grow, while others decline, on the whole, GSA's portfolio has been relatively stable, with modest growth in square footage.
Mr. Chairman, this concludes my statement. I would be pleased to respond to any questions you or the other members of the committee may wish to ask.

its not even that accurate
swellinfo is the bees knees
the video tutorials are great, i told all the kids in the surf club to check them out and a lot of them returned to me and said they learned so much from those about the site and now they understand a lot more, other than a quick look. Its great stuff man. We have our first beach cleanup saturday the 17th at the jetty, should have about 25 kids out for that.

Thats great man. I'd be happy to come in some time and do a forecasting 101. Hit me up by email if you like.

This is an old command. Metasploit is changing almost everyday. But don't let this discourage you from finishing the book, there is a lot of good material in there. You should be able to just continue without starting that sql server. Or another option would be to use the version of Backtrack that was used in the book.
Good Luck.

Is this problem so trivial that I really should be able to solve it,
does the post contain insufficient data or is the problem too complex to answer?
Unfortunately I'm still unable to change it.. :/
Hi there,
I would need help with changing my regulatory domain for my wireless Alfa (AWUS036NHA) card (AR9271 chipset).
I haven't found any problems yet with the device except that I seem to not be able to change the regulatory domain for the card.
I'm running BT5r3 gnome on a bootable USB drive (not persistent).
I've seen the procedure work many times in videos etc..
If i monitor the kernel:Code:ifconfig wlan1 down iw reg set [country code of your choice] ifconfig wlan1 up iw reg get (this should display your current country)
..and then plug in the wireless card this is what it says:Code:tail -f /var/log/messages
Then I type in (as expected):Code:Jan 10 22:32:37 bt kernel: [16775.708148] usb 1-2: new high-speed USB device number 14 using ehci_hcd Jan 10 22:32:37 bt kernel: [16776.151244] usb 1-2: ath9k_htc: Transferred FW: htc_9271.fw, size: 51272 Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.387358] ath9k_htc 1-2:1.0: ath9k_htc: HTC initialized with 33 credits Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.597966] ath9k_htc 1-2:1.0: ath9k_htc: FW Version: 1.3 Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.599828] cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: GB Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.599892] ieee80211 phy12: Atheros AR9271 Rev:1 Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.602441] usb 1-2: ath9k_htc: USB layer initialized Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.604389] cfg80211: Current regulatory domain intersected: Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.604395] cfg80211: (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, max_eirp) Jan 10 22:32:38 bt kernel: [16776.604405] cfg80211: (2402000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm)
And the kernel does not respond at all.Code:iw reg set [any two digit country code]
To check if it has changed:
It does not matter if I bring the card down first and up afterwards it is still at GB.Code:iw reg get country 98: (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
When I activate the card with (ifconfig wlan1 up) regardless if it's before or after I've issued (iw reg set [XX]) the kernel says this:
(don't even know if that is helpful to know)Code:ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan1: link is not ready
Am I missing any kind of updates or files I would need or is the problem more complex?
I'm a new user to both BT and linux but after many hours of searching I have to give up..
Is it just some stupid thing that I've missed or what is it?
If more info is needed just ask for it!
Take the chance to be my hero of the day!
Is this problem so trivial that I really should be able to solve it,
does the post contain insufficient data or is the problem too complex to answer?
Unfortunately I'm still unable to change it.. :/

Injectable implants are injections of material into the urethra to help control urine leakage (urinary incontinence) caused by a weak urinary sphincter. The sphincter is a muscle that allows your body to hold the urine in the bladder. If your sphincter muscle stops working well you will have urine leakage.
Intrinsic sphincter deficiency repair; ISD repair; Injectable bulking agents for stress urinary incontinence
The material that is injected is permanent. Coaptite and Macroplastique are examples of two brands.
The doctor injects material through a needle into the wall of your urethra. This is the tube that carries urine from your bladder. The material bulks up the urethral tissue, causing it to close up. This stops urine from leaking out of your bladder.
The type of anesthesia (pain relief) you receive for this procedure may be one of the following:
After you are numb or asleep from anesthesia, the doctor puts a medical device called a cystoscope into your urethra. The cystoscope allows your doctor to see the area.
Then the doctor passes a needle through the cystoscope into your urethra. Material is injected into the wall of the urethra or bladder neck through this needle. The doctor can also inject material into the tissue next to the sphincter.
The implant procedure is usually done in the hospital. Or it is done in your doctor's clinic. The procedure takes about 20 - 40 minutes.
Implants can help both men and women.
Men who have urine leakage after prostate surgery may choose to have implants.
Women who have urine leakage and want a simple procedure to control the problem may choose to have an implant procedure. These women may not want to have surgery that requires general anesthesia.
Risks of this procedure are:
Tell your doctor or nurse what medicines you are taking. This includes medicines, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription.
You may be asked to stop taking aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) warfarin (Coumadin), and any other medicines that make it hard for your blood to clot.
On the day of your procedure:
Most people can go home soon after the procedure. It may take up to a month before the injection fully works.
It may become harder to empty your bladder. You may need to use a catheter for a few days. This and any other urinary problems usually go away.
You may need 2 or 3 more injections to get good results. If the material migrates, you may need additional treatments in the future.
Implants can help most men who have had transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Implants help about half of men who have had their prostate gland removed to treat prostate cancer.
