Edible Antifreeze Saves Ice Cream
Food Chemists Use 'Edible Antifreeze' To Make Smoother Ice Cream

July 1, 2008 — Chemists adding a tasteless edible protein called gelatin hydrolysate to ice cream find that it keeps ice crystals small, resulting in a smoother, more pleasing product. The protein inhibits the growth of ice crystals, keeping them small and preserving the creamy texture of ice cream.

People in the U.S. eat more ice cream than any other country in the world. The average American consumes about 24 quarts of ice cream a year. But, if you buy a lot of ice cream, you know that freezer burn or ice crystals can ruin the flavor and creaminess of your favorite treat.

"Ice crystals when they grow they change the texture of ice cream, it gives you some gritty sensation in your mouth, and that is not very desirable," Srinivasan Damodaran, Ph.D., food scientist at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, told Ivanhoe.

And that means it could be coming soon to a cone near you.

Quadriplegic Takes Solo Sail through British Isles

clipper's remarks: If you think you can, you will!

Clip Source: www.gimundo.com

Two weeks ago, 36-year-old Hilary Lister set off from the coast of England for a solo sailboat ride through the British Isles, which will take as long as three months to complete.

It sounds like enough of a challenge already – but you haven't heard half of it: Lister, who is quadriplegic, cannot move any part of her body except for her head, eyes, and mouth. Instead of directing the sailboat by hand, she's using a "sip-and-puff" system, in which she blows into a series of straws in order to move the sails and control the boat's movement.

Though Lister's got the sailboat to herself, she's not entirely on her own: She's got a crew following her on another boat, which generally stays about a quarter of a mile away. The crew members help her eat food and use the bathroom, and can keep on eye on her to make sure she's safe at all times.

Sailing may seem like a strange activity for a quadriplegic to take on alone, but Lister claims the hobby has saved her life.

"atrocious economic policies" of Bush

The 'Big Mouth' !!

Clip Source: www.reuters.com

the "atrocious economic policies" of the Bush administration had caused the worst global financial crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

Former President Jimmy Carter said on Friday

"profligate spending," massive borrowing and dramatic tax cuts since President George W. Bush took office in 2001 were behind the market turmoil and economic crisis

Eight years ago, the United States had a budget surplus, low inflation and a stable, strong economy

Carter said he was astonished that the United States now owed China "in the neighborhood of $1 trillion."

Deregulation and what he called a withdrawal of supervision of Wall Street had encouraged irresponsible elements in the U.S. financial system, enabling banks to borrow 30 times their value.

Boing Boing: How I learned to love my persimmon tree

Fri, 10 Oct 2008 22:55:02 GMT

clipped by: Lexica
clipper's remarks: Lots of good discussion in the comments - how to choose a persimmon, how to ripen them, things to do with them, why you do not want to eat underripe persimmons, and much more.

Persimmons are a family favorite, and I guess we must just have dumb luck with ripening them - the problems people describe here with being unable to ripen them are all new to me. (For the record, the family persimmon-ripening method: Place persimmon stem-side down on the kitchen counter, not in direct sun. Leave it there. Pick up once or twice a day to check whether it's getting soft yet. *shrug* It's always worked for us - we've never needed any of the tricks people mention in this post's comments.)

Clip Source: www.boingboing.net

When we moved into our house four or five years ago, I tasted one of the persimmons growing on the tree in our yard. It was a nice orange color, so I assumed it was ripe and ready to eat. I peeled off the skin and took a bite. It was awful, like sticking a spoonful of alum in my mouth. I threw the accursed fruit in the trash.

The next year I read that persimmons tasted better if you soaked them in brine first. I tried it. It was like eating a salty styptic pencil.

The year after that, someone told me to wait until the fruits were mushy. I waited. The few that made it to the mushy stage without being violated by squirrels were delicious, and had a custard-like texture.

This year, I read an article in the Oct/Nov 2008 issue of Mother Earth News, written by Winifred Bird, titled "Finding the Good Life in Japan." Bird is living the self-sufficient good life in rural Japan with her husband. In the article she explains how to dry persimmons the Japanese way.

"Real Life Jaws"

OCEAN SHORES, WA

While the ocean vessel 'Dawn Raider' was commercial fishing for dogfish,
this Great White was hooked in the mouth but only resisted slightly for 15 minutes
before it came up alongside the boat to have a look; long enough for one of the crew members to slip a rope
around it's tail!!! 'And that's when the s**t hit the fan!!. The Shark took off towing the 42 foot fishing boat backwards
through the water at about 7 Knots. Just like in JAWS, the boat was taking on water over the stern
and the crew watched in horror as the shark would actually jump completely out of the water at times.
This went on for an hour before the shark finally drowned.

She weighed in at 1035 LBS. It is suspected she followed a weak El Nino current into local waters
in search of food. Although mid 60 deg. water is considered ideal for these sharks,
the larger ones can tolerate water in the low 50s.

clipper's remarks: Skin wrinkles come with age; they are ridge or crease of the upper skin surface.
As a result of aging processes the skin epidormal cells become thinner and less sticky. As a result the skin looks not only thinner but also not moist. Because of the skin's dryness, it looses epidermal cells and is unable to repair it self.

Home Remedies For Bad Breath

Fri, 10 Oct 2008 12:39:31 GMT

clipped by: jimmy123
clipper's remarks: Bad breath, also known as halitosis, is a very common temporary condition caused by such things as oral dryness, stress, hunger (ketosis), eating certain foods such as garlic and onions, smoking, or poor oral hygiene.
Bad breath is caused by odor-producing bacteria that grow in the mouth. When people don't brush and floss regularly, bacteria accumulate on the bits of food left in the mouth and between the teeth. The sulfur compounds released by these bacteria make the breath smell.

The Allergic Reaction

Fri, 10 Oct 2008 10:41:33 GMT

clipped by: jimmy123
clipper's remarks: An allergic reaction is an abnormal immune system response to things that are normally harmless to most people. When one is allergic to something, the immune system incorrectly identifies this substance as harmful to one's body. (Substances which cause allergic reactions, such as certain foods, medicines, plant pollen, or dust, are called allergens.)

In an attempt to protect the body, the immune system produces immunoglobulin E antibodies. When the IgE antibodies make contact with the allergens, they attach onto it and release chemicals such as histamine into the bloodstream. The histamine causes such allergic reactions as a runny nose, tearing eyes, sore throat, diarrhea, skin rashes, or difficulty breathing and swelling.

Allergic reactions can be mild, like sneezing or coughing. They can also be severe, such as anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis is characterized by difficulty breathing or swallowing, swelling of the lips, tongue, or other parts of the body, dizziness or loss of consciousness. This usually occurs within minutes after contact with the allergen but can take up to 4 hours. These kind of allergic reactions are rare and can be treated successfully if treated correctly.

If the allergen is breathed in, such as flower pollen the reaction usually occurs in the nose, and eyes. If the allergen is eaten, such as peanuts, then the reaction is usually in the mouth, tongue, throat and/or the intestinal tract. If the allergen touches the skin, such as poison ivy, the allergic reaction is usually swelling or itching.

Jews Protect Palestinians in Harvest of Hate

In the shade of the trees where they have been picking olives all morning, in this wadi, south-east of Nablus, a Palestinian farmer, Jamal Otman Koarik, and two of his daughters share a lunch of home-baked bread, zatar, oil, courgettes and salad with three visitors. It's a bucolic scene that could have happened any time in the past century. But what makes it notable in 2008 is that the guests who have been helping Mr Koarik pick the olives are Israeli Jews: a rabbi, an anthropologist and a youth worker, Hellela Siew.

Asked why he and his volunteers make this often risky mission each year, the US-born rabbi says "if we really believe" the Biblical text that all human beings are made in God's image, "we have got to put our money where our mouth is and be here in an active way to defend human rights". And he also cites the "dialogue of the olive groves" in which Israelis and Palestinians who "have to live and die here together" have "no choice but to communicate"

Look. I am going to say what everyone at CNN, CBS, ABC and NBC is thinking but is afraid to say. Governor Palin is a stupid, conniving bitch. And it’s not because she is a strong woman - I like strong women… worship them… It’s actually the opposite. She is a weak, pathetic woman who thinks big hair, winking, baby talk and self deprecation is somehow becoming of a woman who wants to lead the free world. My god, where is Margaret Thatcher when you need her!

exactly when did sounding like a hick make someone “more like us”

Last time I checked we were a country striving to educate our children to be intelligent and honest.

I think I would die if my daughter came home from school and said something like “I gotta tell ya. Change is a comin’.” At the very least I would remove the Beverly Hillbillies from her approved TV viewing list.

Fact: Sarah Palin is stupid.

Sarah Palin is an ignorant, ranting, whining bitch. There I said it. But lots more are thinking it.

7. Cure your toothache without opening your mouth!

Just rub ice on the back of your hand, on the V-shaped webbed area between your thumb and index finger. A Canadian study found that this technique reduces toothache pain by as much as 50 percent compared with using no ice. The nerve pathways at the base of that V stimulate an area of the brain that blocks pain signals from the face and hands.

10. Unstitch your side!

If you're like most people, when you run, you exhale as your right foot hits the ground. This puts downward pressure on your liver (which lives on your right side), which then tugs at the diaphragm and creates a side stitch, according to The Doctors Book of Home Remedies for Men. The fix: Exhale as your left foot strikes the ground.
