Yogurt making? help its not really working.?

Even if you don’t read my long question just giving your yogurt making tips would be great!





My main problems are: taste bad, well it doesn’t really taste. and its not thick and creamy?





Ok so we got a easy yogurt maker (electronic)

And I started making yogurt and it took a while to figure out that you need to leave it in for a long time to get it thick like nearly 24 hrs that also improved the taste. (it tasted like nothing before)



I make it and tastes fine but after a sort while it changes and is bad. Why? my sister recons it’s the bad bacteria gets growing and it kinda sticks to the side of gar like weavels in flour?



I didn’t used to sterilize, but know I do. and no difference. Uhhh?



So far I’ve only mad a few batches that I would call good and I’ve been at it for months averaging 1 per week at the start more.



And I’m getting really disappointed.



I made one really good one when I read on web how to do Greek style. And I put a tablespoon or so of full cream milk powder in, but I only heated up to 40 degrees Celsius, because I used UHT milk. Although afterwards I read if you add milk powder you have to go to 90 opps. also let the milk cool too much like to about 30 Celsius but it was the best one. I might have used a different starter for that one to but not sure



I mainly use UhT coz its less fuss an quicker. But I have used normal heating to 90 Celsius.



It also terns out a lot “grainy” ‘breaky not sticking together’ my sister says and Its not nice and smooth like the store bought.



I follow the instructions.

Here is what I normally do (now that I sterilize everyding)



Boil my glass gar ( I bought a glass gar coz I hate using plastic.) and spoon, (sieve if I’m using milk powder.)

Whilst I’m doing that I take out 3-4 table spoons starter (I use Jalna greek style: ingredients whole milk, cream, milk solids, live cultures(lactobacillus etc…)

let go to room temperature or until its not cold (for greek) (our temp here is usually 23--30 degrees Celsius.) .( My sister recons it goes off then.)



I even tried putting cream in no difference ahhh.



Heat up milk in the pot I just used to sterilize to 40. coz its UHT. then mix equal parts room temperature milk yogurt. And add rest of milk stirring in well.

Then pop in my yogurt maker with the glass gar lid agar, but the outer pot lid closed.



I make the yogurt upstairs dose that make a difrence? we live on the edge of a hill near water.



Sorry about the really long-winded spiel. I’m trying to be detailed. and i'm just really not enjoying it any more but still remember the super tasty good one I made.



Any help at all is great thanks









Dose anyone know if you could use your own yogurt for a starter indefinitely?

And if perhaps one could make yogurt from say a probiotic like inner health plus for example?





Would it help if I convert the temperatures to Fahrenheit?



Also have an old ezy-yo (non electronic) if maybe that works better? haven’t gotten into that one yet.

Also I’m not big on the packets. Wanna make it from real liquid milk. (just personal)Yogurt making? help its not really working.?
To start with, I do not use a yoghurt maker. I use a very traditional method.



If you want real creamy dahi, use full cream milk. You can but powder milk and dilute( 3 parts water to one part milk). If you are using UHT, boil if first and allow to cool to about 60 deg Cel. If you using powder milk, allow the milk to warm until 60 deg Cel. That would be when you can put your little finger in the milk and stir it around for at least five seconds without getting burnt.



Once the milk reaches the appropriate temperature, put in three-four tablespoons of lemon juice or one-two tablespoons of vinegar(I prefer using lemon juice). Remove from fire, cover the container and wrap up in a towel or a kitchen cloth to keep warm. Keep it in warm place.



It will be ready in one-two days depending on the temperature. If it is hot one day will be enough. Colder temperatures require two or sometimes three days. You have to check it after one day. If it is not ready, you can warm it(not boil, boiling will spoil it) and wrap up again.



Try it, I'm sure it will be all right.



Coming to starters now. Once I set a batch of dahi, I use it as starter for the next batch. I keep this process up for five-six times, and then I make new. At a time, I was using fresh cream as a starter. If you can get fresh milk, collect the thick cream when it boils and leave out to ferment for two days, then use as starter.



Hope this helps!Yogurt making? help its not really working.?
Probiotic cultures and yoghurt making cultures are different. Probiotic cultures are the ones the are good for your intestines, and yoghurt cultures make good thick creamy yoghurt. Officially they are the same, but in reality they are different strains. If you are buying a probiotic yoghurt, then the cultures in it may not make good yoghurt. You need to experiment with buying different starters, until you find one which you are happy with. Also the cream should be added afterwards, not at the beginning! The longer the yoghurt is in the machine, the more acidic it becomes as the bacteria ferment the lactose and turn milk into yoghurt- this is normal. Make sure your temperature is 30-37oC, and the milk is pH 6-7 at the beginning,+Yogurt making? help its not really working.?
I think you need to be careful about the temperature. Here is a very easy to make recipe for home-made yogurt from

http://www.turkishfoodandrecipes.com/2008/12/home-made-yogurt-evde-yogurt-yapimi.html



4 cups milk

1 tbsp plain yogurt



Please keep in mind that the most important points in making yogurt are adding sample yogurt to the milk at the right temperature and keeping it warm for a while. The exact temperature for fermentation is between 42-45 C.

Place the milk in a pot and heat it until the boiling point. If you like creamy yogurt, simmer the milk a few more minutes to let the water evaporate more. Take the milk from the stove and wait about 10-12 minutes. Occasionally, dip your finger into the milk and try to count till 7. If you can bear the heat till 7, it means the milk is ready for fermentation. Don’t let the milk cool more than that since if the milk is not hot enough, fermentation won’t take place.

In a small bowl, mix 1 tbsp of yogurt with lukewarm milk by using a wooden spoon (don’t use metal spoons). Add this mixture to the milk and stir with the wooden spoon. Then, pour the milk to the containers and close their lids. (see the picture) The best container for making yogurt is glass. To keep the milk warm, cover the container completely with a cloth and then cover again with a blanket or something similar. Try to cover tightly to keep the milk warm for a while. (see the picture) Generally, it takes 5-6 and 7-8 hours for fermentation in summer and winter, respectively. After fermentation, take yogurt out of its cover without shaking. Leave it at room temperature for 2-3 hours and then place it in the fridge. You can use it after staying 3-4 hours in the fridge.

I often make yogurt in the evenings and it stays covered all night. I remove the covers in the morning.

ENJOY!

Need physical science help?

1.) What is an explanation of heat?

Temperature

Total energy of moving molecules

Degree Celsius





2.) Can you have transfer heat by convection in a solid?

Yes, because the atoms are all in motion

Only for conductors of electricity

No, because convection requires the flow of atoms





3.) Why are car windows tinted?

So the people can feel important

To minimize heating the inside by radiation

Because tint is a poor conductor





4.) How did Fahrenheit determine 100 degrees?

He measured the boiling point of water

He looked at a thermometer

He measured his body temperature





5.) What temperature should your waterbed be?

Slightly higher than body temperature

Exactly room temperature

Near the boiling point of water





6.) Which material requires the least energy to change its temperature 2 degrees?

Ice, because it is colder

Water, because its specific heat is highest

Steam, because its specific heat is lowest





7.) How did Mpemba make this discovery?

He was observant and noticed something unusual when making ice cream

He was making ice cream and noticed it melted before he ate it

His teachers suggested he make some ice cream to prove the effectNeed physical science help?

1. Heat is the total energy of the molecules.

2. No. Convection means the material picks up heat by conduction, flows, and deposits heat somewhere else by conduction.

3. For any reason the car owner chooses. This is a poor question.

4. Mr. Fahrenheit thought the boiling of water was somehow the opposite of freezing, and opposite sides of a circle are 180 degrees apart, so he divided the thermometer into 180 divisions. Mr. Celsius divided his thermometer into 100 divisions because he though 100 was a nice number. Are you sure you read the question correctly?

5. What a goofy question! A water bed should be any temperature you happen to like!

6. Steam, because its specific heat is lowest. Ice does not change temperature until it melts, and it takes about 5 times as much heat to melt it as to change the temperature of the melted water.

7. Mpemba first encountered the phenomenon in 1963 in Form 3 of Magamba Secondary School, Tanzania when freezing hot ice cream mix in cookery classes and noticing that they froze before cold mixes.

An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. What is the equation for the perimeter, or the distance around the sides, of an equilateral triangle if P = perimeter and s = length of a side?



s = 3P

P = 3s

P = 3 + s

P = 3 (s + s + s)



The total cost to rent a rowboat is $18 times the number of hours the boat is used. Write an equation to model this situation if c = total cost and h = number of hours.

c = h/18



How can you tell the difference between finding the opposite of a number and finding its absolute value?

There is no difference.

The absolute value of a number is always positive, and the opposite of a number is always negative.

Finding the absolute value changes the sign of the number, but the opposite of a number is always positive.

If you had a park with three sides (a triangle) and you walekd aroound it (perimeter) the perimeter would be sie 1 + side 2 + side 3 Example 3+4+5 = 12

but is the side are all the same say 5 you could get

5 + 5 + 5 = 15 or 7 + 7 + 7 = 21

but inthe case where the side are the same lenght would it be eastier to do 3*5 or 3*7 which would be 3*s=p

------------------------

each hour costs 18

2 hours = 18 + 18 = 36

3 hours = 18 + 18 + 18 = 52

see the pattern of number hours * 18 = total cost

h*18 = c

-------------------------

How can you tell the difference between finding the opposite of a number and finding its absolute value?



There is no difference. Check the tech for calcualting abs and opp values.



The absolute value of a number is always positive, and the opposite of a number is always negative. (is oppsite of -2 and positve number ? NO its +2)



Finding the absolute value changes the sign of the number, but the opposite of a number is always positive.

(Oppsite of -2 is not positve False)



The absolute value is always positive, but finding the opposite of a number changes the sign of the number.

Yes this is true

Calculate work: The thermal energy released when a gallon of gasoline is burned in a car's engine is 140 million J. If the engineis 25 percent efficient, how much work does it do when one gallon of gasoline is burned?



-THANKS EVERYONE!Lost in the physics world... please help me.?
For the first two:

You could either go to an online conversion site if you're lazy, or you can use this formula to convert from degC to degF:

degF = (9/5)*degC + 32. To go the opposite way, solve for degC.



The next few questions can be solved by using Q=mc(delta)T where (delta)T is the change in temperature, %26quot;c%26quot; is the specific heat capacity of the medium, m is the mass, and Q is the total energy.



As for the last few, well, here's my attempt at giving you answers:

%26quot;Calculate Solar Radiation%26quot;. If the house is 10mX10m, that's 100 sq.m. So, your equation would look like:

200 W/sqM * 100 sq.M = 20 000 W = 20kW. That is assuming a perfect rectangle and that the house is directly underneath the Sun, with no other obstacles in the way.



The other ones I'm not going to answer for you, as I pretty much did your whole assignment already.



Good luckLost in the physics world... please help me.?
e=mCv(t2-t1) can be used for most of these questions.

solving for one of the variables by using the others will get to your answer.

Make sure units cancel out, and you should be fine.

the celsius to farenheit , can be calculated using the equation

celsius to farenheit= C*(9/5) + 32

fareheit to celsius=F-32 *(5/9)

    Wow... that's a big request!! Let me give you some help solving them.



    1 dozen pair of gloves is 12 pair = 24 individual gloves, so 30 doz pair, would be 30(12) PAIRS = 2times that many individual gloves



    To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit: (9/5)(Celsius) + 32.

    (To convert form F to C: (F-32)(5/9)



    Net Weight would be the Gross Weight (the weight of everthing combined) MINUS the packaging



    Volume of a block (cube/rectangular prism/etc.) is Length * Width * Height... units are cubed



    There are 2pints in 1 quart, and 4 quarts in 1 gallon... so there are 8 pints in ONE gallon...



    How many months are there in a year? multiply that by 30 to find the number of monthly payments in 30 years.



    1 Ton = 2000 lbs You could set up a proportion to solve this if the answer isn't immediately apparent. 2000lbs / 1 T = 20,000lbs / X Tons



    Military time works on a 24 hour clock, with 2400 hours being midnight... then 0100 hours is 1am, 0200 hours is 2am, etc... (12 noon is 1200 hours... 1300 hours is 1pm)



    To change linear feet to inches, you multiply by 12 (because there are 12 inches per foot)... To change cubic feet to cubic inches, you would multiply by 12x12x12 because that's how many cubic inches there are per cubic foot.



    Again, 1 dozen = 12, so 3,000 dozen would be 30,000(12)



    Again, volume is Length(Width)(Height)



    For the last one

    Add each of the liquid amounts as given... You'll end up with: 3 gallons 8 quarts 13 pints



    Convert units using the following: 2 pints = 1 quart, 8 pints = gallon, 4 quarts = 1 gallon



    13 pints = 6 quarts 1 pint... so now you have 3 gallons 14 quarts 1 pint

    14 quarts = 3 gallons 2 quarts (3 gallons is 12 quarts, with 2 left over)

    so now you have 6 gallons 2 quarts 1 pintPlease help me pick the best answer to these math questions?

  • Fin Regrowth and Algae Questions?

    Background: I keep cichlids. My yellow lab got singled out and beat up to the point of being removed to a hospital tank (Sept 18), his tail fin just a muscly stub and his appearance quite emaciated. I believe the tank to be 5 gallons (I initially though it was 10), with a bright light and items recycled from a garage sale (which sat a long time in my basement and were washed). I do water changes every weekend, and the replaced water is from the main tank. The water conditions are good- high hardness and pH, little to no ammonia or nitrate, questionable nitrite. I fed him normal cichlid food for a while, then switched him onto an all-veg diet at the advice of a local fish specialist, who also suggested cranking the temperature a few degrees. I can not do that because I bought a cheap heater which automatically keeps the temperature at 76 degrees Fahrenheit (24.4 degrees Celsius). The guy told me that with the food and heat alterations my fish would be healed in no time. That fish is now nice and filled out, and has about half of a tail whisping behind him. Today I spotted a small patch of what I believe to be cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) in the tank.



    My Questions:



    How long is he going to take to grow his tail back?? Goodness, I thought it would take maybe 2 weeks!

    Is the temperature/heater my problem?

    Is there any way I can help him regrow his fin faster?



    Is that cyanobacteria dangerous to his health as it is?

    Will it take over before my fish is back in ship-shape?

    Will my fish carry it over to my other tank? (I have not seen any sign of it there yet, although I use the same siphoning gear for both tanks as well as a planted one).

    Would you advise using chemicals to eliminate it?



    Thanks!Fin Regrowth and Algae Questions?
    The algae won't hurt your fish. I used apple snails or some type of algae eaters to keep my tanks clean. The algae occurs naturally, like in the wild, so it's ok, just unsightly to some people. I always tried to stay away from chemicals. Hope this helps. I used to raise african and south american cichlids.

    BTW...

    how do you find the freezing point of a typical coolant by looking at at its pic. P.S the pic shows degrees in Fahrenheit, from top to bottom +10, 0, -7, -20, -34, and -45. In addition, it also says :

    (-34 Fahrenheit) 50% concentration recommended (-37 Celsius)



    Having the correct answers for these questions are very significant to me.... so PLEASE! If you can lend me a helping hand... i will appreciate it sooooo much~!!Mechanic questions...need helps!!?
    Answer to first question - find new techs , but first change the sending unit . If still low pressure , will need to change gauge .

    Second question - should be at least 2 oil changes .

    Third question - either tester gauge bad or leak in system

    Fourth question - again find new techs - 1 the relief valve is not always in the filter as on some engines it is in the filter housing- 2 relief valve is just that . It relieves excessive pressure .

    Fifth question - all of the above or any one of the above

    Sixth question - need new techs again . At room temp , stat should be closed and opens slowly as temp goes up

    Seventh question - hey , you finally found 2 correct answers

    Eighth question -Actually all of those temps could be freeze point depending on the concentration of anti-freeze to water ratio . Most manufacturers recommend a 50/50 concentration , but you need to adjust that depending on where you live .Mechanic questions...need helps!!?
    D, B, B, C, C, D, C. You really ought to do your own homework, though!!!!

    Will someone REVISE my Paragraph for me Pease?

    Just revise and rearrange PLease + thank you



    1There are many negative effects linking themselves to the drastic climate change, or Global Warming. These effects include the polar ice caps melting, economic consequences, increased probability and intensity of droughts and heat waves, warmer waters and more hurricanes, and finally, the wide spread of diseases. These are only some of the effects of the climate change, but they can be stopped. It will take time, but there is a number of different ways to stop the change. For instance, doing simple things such as picking up trash in your neighborhood, local park, school, or even just on the sidewalks will make a big difference. There is little doubt that the planet is warming. Over the last century, the planets temperature has risen by around 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.6 of a degree Celsius). The warmest since the mid 1800檚 was the 1990s. The hottest years recorded were 1997, 1998, 2001, 2002, 2003.

    The United Nations panel on climate change projects that the global temperatures will rise 3-10 degrees Fahrenheit by the century檚 end - enough to have the polar caps all but melted. If the ice caps melt, a vast majority of our countries borders will be under water. Monuments and great buildings, as well as homes and lives will be under water, including New York City. Experts say that fears surrounding climate change are overblown

    Alarming predictions that climate change will lead to the extinction of hundreds of species may be exaggerated, according to Oxford scientists. So now we know what some of the causes are for global warming, how can we as individuals do our part to help save the planet?



    The answer is simpler than you may think. You don檛 have to go miles away from home to protest, or spend masses of money. Reduce, reuse and recycle. Only buy what you need; don檛 stock the cupboards with things you may or may not use. Reuse whatever you can, like containers and paper, and recycle what you cannot reuse. It really is as simple as that.

    Finally turning off unused sources of power such as televisions and heaters will help the environment, as well as save you money.

  • Large scale global study shows a massive 50% gap in man made CO2 global warming theory!?

    The conclusion, Dickens said, is that something other than carbon dioxide caused much of the heating during the PETM. %26quot;Some feedback loop or other processes that aren't accounted for in these models -- the same ones used by the IPCC for current best estimates of 21st Century warming -- caused a substantial portion of the warming that occurred during the PETM.



    No one knows exactly how much Earth's climate will warm due to carbon emissions, but a new study suggests scientists' best predictions about global warming might be incorrect.



    The study, which appears in Nature Geoscience, found that climate models explain only about half of the heating that occurred during a well-documented period of rapid global warming in Earth's ancient past. The study, which was published online July 13, 2009 contains an analysis of published records from a period of rapid climatic warming about 55 million years ago known as the Palaeocene-Eocene thermal maximum, or PETM.



    %26quot;In a nutshell, theoretical models cannot explain what we observe in the geological record,%26quot; said oceanographer Gerald Dickens, a co-author of the study and professor of Earth science at Rice University. %26quot;There appears to be something fundamentally wrong with the way temperature and carbon are linked in climate models.%26quot;



    During the PETM, for reasons that are still unknown, the amount of carbon in Earth's atmosphere rose rapidly. For this reason, the PETM, which has been identified in hundreds of sediment core samples worldwide, is probably the best ancient climate analogue for present-day Earth.

    In addition to rapidly rising levels of atmospheric carbon, global surface temperatures rose dramatically during the PETM. Average temperatures worldwide rose by about 7 degrees Celsius -- about 13 degrees Fahrenheit -- in the relatively short geological span of about 10,000 years.

    Many of the findings come from studies of core samples drilled from the deep seafloor over the past two decades. When oceanographers study these samples, they can see changes in the carbon cycle during the PETM.



    %26quot;You go along a core and everything's the same, the same, the same, and then suddenly you pass this time line and the carbon chemistry is completely different,%26quot; Dickens said. %26quot;This has been documented time and again at sites all over the world.%26quot;



    Based on findings related to oceanic acidity levels during the PETM and on calculations about the cycling of carbon among the oceans, air, plants and soil, Dickens and co-authors Richard Zeebe of the University of Hawaii and James Zachos of the University of California-Santa Cruz determined that the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increased by about 70 percent during the PETM.

    That's significant because it does not represent a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Since the start of the industrial revolution, carbon dioxide levels are believed to have risen by about one-third, largely due to the burning of fossil fuels. If present rates of fossil-fuel consumption continue, the doubling of carbon dioxide from fossil fuels will occur sometime within the next century or two.

    Doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide is an oft-talked-about threshold, and today's climate models include accepted values for the climate's sensitivity to doubling. Using these accepted values and the PETM carbon data, the researchers found that the models could only explain about half of the warming that Earth experienced 55 million years ago.





    The conclusion, Dickens said, is that something other than carbon dioxide caused much of the heating during the PETM. %26quot;Some feedback loop or other processes that aren't accounted for in these models -- the same ones used by the IPCC for current best estimates of 21st Century warming -- caused a substantial portion of the warming that occurred during the PETM.Large scale global study shows a massive 50% gap in man made CO2 global warming theory!?
    According to your cut and paste we may be in real trouble due to feedbacks and tipping points.



    If you think that the temperature rise 55 million years ago was significant, notice that it said %26quot;Average temperatures worldwide rose by about 7 degrees Celsius -- about 13 degrees Fahrenheit -- in the relatively short geological span of about 10,000 years%26quot;. If the earth warmed then at the rate it is rising today and that rise continued for 10 k years, the average temperature increase would not have reached 7 degrees Celsius but rather 74 degrees Celsius.

    In comparison, the rise we have seen over the past one hundred years is happening at about one hundred times faster than the rise between the Palaeocene and the Eocene and we have yet to see any of the expected tipping points.



    Edit: Perhaps it would help if you read the source document. If you have the capacity to understand it, of course.

    http://www.es.ucsc.edu/~jzachos/pubs/Zee



    Edit: %26quot;Did you read it%26quot;

    Yes and I also read the source documents.



    %26quot;If the temperature reconstructions are correct, then feedbacks and/or forcings other than atmospheric CO2 caused a major portion of the PETM warming.%26quot;



    Meaning the temperature rise cannot be explained simply by changes in radiative forcings caused by changes of with of CO2 in the atmosphere and indeed other feedbacks and forcings must have come into play. In short what the paper is telling us is if we don't get the feedbacks correct and act on our quickly changing climate we could find ourselves very surprised and quickly screwed.

    We simply can't look back fifty five million years to determine our future climate. Due to factors such as plate tectonics, much has changed and we simply are unable to rely on uniformitarianism to give us the right answers.

    If you actually read it, you obviously didn't understand it.Large scale global study shows a massive 50% gap in man made CO2 global warming theory!?
    So... that means anthropogenic global warming could be twice as bad as the models are currently telling us, yes?Large scale global study shows a massive 50% gap in man made CO2 global warming theory!?
    it is not a theory here are my facts

    The warming of Earth's surface and oceans over the past century is very well documented, and climate research shows that most of the warming in the past half century results from manmade greenhouse gases.



    Snow-mantled crags frame the severe beauty of Queen Maud Land in central Antarctica. Discovered in 1820, the region is known for its jagged peaks with forbidding names like the Jaw of Fenris and The Razor.





    In recent years, global warming has been the subject of a great deal of political controversy. As scientific knowledge has grown, this debate is moving away from whether humans are causing warming and toward questions of how best to respond.



    Signs that the earth is warming are recorded all over the globe. The easiest way to see increasing temperatures is through the thermometer records kept over the past century and a half. Around the world, the earth's average temperature has risen more than 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the last century, and about twice that in parts of the Arctic.



    This doesn檛 mean that temperatures haven't fluctuated among regions of the globe or between seasons and times of day. But if you average out the temperature all over the world over the course of a year, you see that temperatures have been creeping upward.



    Although we can't look at thermometers going back thousands of years, we do have some records that help us figure out what temperatures and concentrations were like in the distant past. For example, trees store information about the climate in the place where they live. Each year, trees grow thicker and form new rings. In warmer and wetter years, the rings are thicker. Old trees and wood can tell us about conditions hundreds or even several thousands of years ago.



    Keys to the past are also buried under lakes and oceans. Pollen, creatures and particles fall to the bottom of oceans and lakes each year, forming sediments. Sediments preserve all these bits and pieces, which contain a wealth of information about what was in the air and water when they fell. Scientists reveal this record by inserting hollow tubes into the mud to collect sediment layers going back millions of years.



    For a direct look at the atmosphere of the past, scientists drill cores through the earth's polar ice sheets. Tiny bubbles trapped in the gas are actually pieces of the earth's past atmosphere, frozen in time. That's how we know that the concentrations of greenhouse gases since the industrial revolution are higher than they've been for hundreds of thousands of years.



    Computer models help scientists to understand the Earth's climate, or long-term weather patterns. Models also allow scientists to make predictions about the future climate. Basically, models simulate how the atmosphere and oceans absorb energy from the sun and transport it around the globe. Factors that affect the amount of the sun's energy reaching Earth's surface are what drive the climate in these models, as in real life. These include things like greenhouse gases, particles in the atmosphere (such as from volcanoes), and changes in energy coming from the sun itself.

    How can we set any carbon policies when the Global Warming Scientists' Best CO2 Predictions are still wrong?

    As usual the orthodox scientific community is putting the cart before the horse! Here are some interesting starting points for your own personal investigation

    .

    Henrik Svensmark (born 1958) is a physicist at the Danish National Space Center in Copenhagen who studies the effects of cosmic rays on cloud formation. His work presents hypotheses about solar activity as an indirect cause of global warming; his research has suggested a possible link through the interaction of the solar wind and cosmic rays. His conclusions have been controversial as the prevailing scientific opinion on climate change considers solar activity unlikely to be a major contributor to recent warming, though it is thought to be the primary driver of many earlier changes in climate.



    In review, the Sun used to be the cause, before the industrial age, but it isn't anymore?

    I guess that would make sense if it was the Suns warming effect being blocked by the .038% CO2 we have in our atmosphere. But this is not the case. The Solar winds redirect the Radiation effectively disallowing them to interact with the Oceans, and create cloud cover. We know that a warmer ocean releases CO2, and a cooler Ocean absorbs it. However water takes much longer to change temperature than air, so their is a lagging in the data, that you can see, even in the warmists data. CO2 follows water temp. and water temp lags behind Solar activity. So the Solar activity of the last hundred years has warmed the Oceans, and the Solar minimum in just the last 9 years has not been able to cool the oceans enough yet. Too many people want to study the weather on an hour to hour basis when it is a long term equation!How can we set any carbon policies when the Global Warming Scientists%26039; Best CO2 Predictions are still wrong?
    The study you quote is suggesting that based on the PETM, current climate models are *underestimating* the amount that the planet will warm in response to a CO2 increase. This is in fact a very good reason why we should regulate carbon as soon as possible.



    *edit* you're talking about a climate change that happened 50 million years ago and saying %26quot;if we don't know exactly what caused every degree of that change, how can we regulate carbon?%26quot;.



    You're essentially arguing that until we know everything about everything we shouldn't act on what we do know.



    What the PETM showed us is that feedbacks can cause major additional warming, which is exactly what we're worried about with AGW. You're giving us an excellent argument to act ASAP to regulate carbon emissions.How can we set any carbon policies when the Global Warming Scientists%26039; Best CO2 Predictions are still wrong?
    It's all bollox.How can we set any carbon policies when the Global Warming Scientists%26039; Best CO2 Predictions are still wrong?
    Never argue from the specific to the general, or the general to the specific.



    1. They don't know how much sensitivity the climate has to CO2



    2. They know that global warming is occurring.



    3. They know that a 40% increase of CO2 is the primary initial driver of these changes.



    4. They know that most of the CO2 increase has come either from the combustion of fossil fuels, or a lack of absorption caused by deforestation.



    The answer is that, they know that CO2 is the cause today. But they aren't sure about what drove the climate to go against its cycles in the past. Like I said, don't argue from the general to the specific or the specific to the general if you can help it.

    How did you choose your wedding colours?

    I am having such a hard time deciding. Every time I think I have a palette I like I change my mind, or decide it may not work. I'm getting married in June 2010 but in order to shop for anything I need to pick colours.



    I've been between turquoise and chocolate, royal purple and butter yellow, emerald green and black, navy and silver - Maybe I'm being fickle or maybe I'm just worried about getting it right.



    How did you decide on your colours? Do you have any suggestions from me? I'm quite lost in colours right now.



    Please note: I hate pink, we're having a relatively traditional church wedding and are holding our reception in a very nice hall in our hometown. It's quite warm where we're from in June usually in the mid 20s (in Celsius) so probably around 78 Fahrenheit. My bridesmaids are all fair skinned.



    Thanks!How did you choose your wedding colours?
    I couldn't decide my colors either. So, after choosing my dress, I made an appointment to bring all of my bridesmaids to pick what they'd wear. I basically let them choose with my input. We ended up with light blue. (Most of my bridesmaids are also very pale and blue looks good on all of them) Because there are not many naturally blue flowers (and there are NO flowers near the right shade of blue), I decided to bring in a few pink accents and have pink flowers.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    my sorority colors. crimson and cream.

    chocolate sounds nice thoughHow did you choose your wedding colours?
    The colors I chose for our wedding was purple and white.

    You can choose from a spectrum of colors that are in the purple family.

    White or cream will be the contrasting color.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    My entire wedding plan started with one thing I loved which was fuchsia orchids. From there it went tropical, had to be outdoors,etc. You know you hate pink so you must know what color you gravitate to more than others. Think of it like you just bought a new home. What look would you want? Modern, Asian, bamboo, Country, bunches of yellow daisies or bold %26amp; dramatic flowers? You need to get your overall vibe down before picking colors. You pretty much through out a ton of color choices that have nothing to do with one another.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    Yep, you best get started, it usually takes a good year to get everything done for a nice wedding and reception. If it helps any, this is what my daughter did...smile. She was set on red, white and blue of all things...grin. So, she did her reception hall in red, white and blue, wore the traditional white wedding dress and underneath that wedding dress...you wouldn't believe it, but she wore a pair of her fav sneakers and some red, white and blue socks...lol. That's my girl!!! I saw the video, and my daughter was beautiful and the wedding went wonderfully, as well as the reception, with the exception of the groomsmen putting baby powder in the AC in the getaway car...Lordy!

    It's YOUR wedding...if you like all the colors and can't decide on one color scheme, perhaps you can have someone help you coordinate all of them into the wedding and the reception. Maybe the parties in your wedding could wear one color scheme and the MIL's could wear another of the color scheme and then your reception could be another, as well as your flowers for the wedding...Don't be so worried about getting it RIGHT, have fun with it...smile. It's a day you will remember forever and something always goes wrong anyway...giggle, whether someone forgets part of their vow, someone steps on your veil, drops the ring pillow, etc....smile. Have fun, God bless and I'm sure all will work out fine. And, that's my 2 cents worth...Bren In TexasHow did you choose your wedding colours?
    I know I was just %26quot;dazed%26quot; for awhile then started to relax a little and was able to move forward. I think if you go to wedding sites like www.theweddingknot.com that you will get good info on the latest colors and what is in. %26quot;Green%26quot; themes are really the thing right now. Once you find the combo you LOVE-you will know it and go with it.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    i asked myself what my favorite color was and when from there. I picked different shades of blues and one printed dress that is a combo of all the shades of blues i picked. I wanted to make sure the girls dresses looked bright and spring like in the pictures more than anything!How did you choose your wedding colours?
    i grew up wanting navy blue, silver and ivory.....i was hoping for a winter wedding....



    but a few nights after my engagement i had a dream and i was wearing this red, orange, and ivory dress



    i thought it was a beautiful combo



    and that's how i picked my colors...



    but try pulling colors from the reception hall..



    it'll help enhance the colors of the wedding and allow the ceremony and reception have a cohesive look to itHow did you choose your wedding colours?
    This might sound weird...but, when i was helping my friend, I went to a Walmart. Grabbed as many of those paint color samples as i could- since they're free there's no cap on how many you can take. Take them all home, throw them on the table invite a friend the compare and pick the perfect assortment of colors.



    You can also just choose something that incorporates more than just the 2 or 3 colors folks are used to. Do something like a spring bouquet that has a million different colors throughoutHow did you choose your wedding colours?
    my colors were decided by the season i was getting married. i am getting married this december 12th and well thats right around Christmas so i made mine a Christmas themed wedding.



    so naturally my colors were Christmas colors. beautiful crimsons, greens, golds and silvers. can also be taken as Gryffindor or Slytherin if you really look at it.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    whenever i have mine and my boyfriend decides to propose (i know its coming soon lol) i want gerbera daisy as my pallete they are beautiful and very colorful kinda to match my personality

    http://image50.webshots.com/650/8/42/29/

    and have black as my background color sort of

    http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_RFSoNTm4aeU/SC



    but i think that any of those would be great!

    but also have you though of combining?

    the purple, yellow, navy, and silver would go nicely together but if you want to stick with just two colors i like purple and yellow best



    you could go for somr sunflowers like this and tie them with the purple ribbon

    http://www.bigdaysmallworld.com/dynamic/How did you choose your wedding colours?
    i always liked purple and silver. a deep purple not a light purple.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    Well first of all, I LOVE ALL YOUR COMBOS!! My wedding was this past Valentine's Day, so we knew we wanted V-Day colors. But instead of going with traditional Red %26amp; White, I chose a deep Crimson Red and Cream and our accent color was Silver. I loved the way everything came out. It sounds like either way, you like Jewel Tones (Emerald, Turquoise, Navy %26amp; Royal Purple). Not to overwhelm you, but what about ALL of those? When I think of those colors, I think of Peacock feathers. You could have the feathers in your centerpieces and even as the boutonnieres. Here are some pics...

    Just an idea. I hope I helped. If you have time, let me know what you think. E-Mail me at : MrsHWeddings@hotmail.comHow did you choose your wedding colours?
    i chose my favorite colors for the ceremony, orange and yellow. for the reception i chose to do a spring theme because we are getting married in april and we both love spring, but i hate pastel colors. so i am doing bright colors like turquoise, fuscia, purple, bright yellow, orange, lime green ect...

    what is your favorite color? and you could pick a theme for your wedding.. thats always fun.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    Mine started with Tiger Lillies. Where I live they grow wild along the highways. I started with orange, and then chose a shade that all three of my bridesmaids looked good in.



    http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p117/How did you choose your wedding colours?
    Why don't you go out and start looking for dresses. I found it was really hard to match what I was thinking with what was actually available in the stores. Instead of bronze I ended up with gold. Having the girls try on the colors is also a good idea. The other thing is looking at the venue. In my venue the colors were green and gold- white and navy certainly wouldn't have coordinated. Its a summer wedding so don't be afraid of color. I'm currently in love with the peacock color palatte- purple, green and bronze.How did you choose your wedding colours?
    I chose fern green, chocolate, burnt orange and merlot. The idea came from my venue and theme. I wanted a wine country rustic theme because we are getting married in a vineyard, so thoes colors went perfectly! I guess you just have to choose colors that you like and that appeal to you. You'll get it you have time.

Now the only other thing is I have a heart disease, Long QT and when I get scared it can also mess me up?And I got extremely scared/nervous earlier yesterday to the point where I almost passed outow I檓 not sure if this could also be affecting the way I檓 feeling? But yesterday was when the lightheadedness and almost fainting was really bad. Now I檓 just tired, have watery direarea, I檓 thirsty and have pale cool skin. Do you think its possible I have the toxic shock syndrome? I did lose track at one point how long I had a tampon in although I thought it was 8 hours.Is it possible i have toxic shock syndrome?
    it is possible but it could also be something else. I'm not a doctor, but I watch a lot of House haha.. and I say you really need to go to the hospital.. it could be something dangerous SERIOUSLY GO TO THE HOSPITAL!!

    Doing notes?

    11.2 State of the Atmosphere

    Temperature Versus Heat

    Temperature- a measurement of how rapidly or slowly

    Heat- the transfer of energy that occurs because of a difference in temperature between substances

    The direction of heat flow depends on temperature.

    Heat is the transfer of energy that fuels atmospheric processes, while temperature is used to measure and interpret that energy.

    Measuring Temperature

    Can be measured in Fahrenheit(F) or Celsius(C).

    The Kelvin scale measures the number above zero, which corresponds to approximately -273degrees C and -523degrees F. This scale is a more direct measure of molecular activity, because at absolute zero, molecular motion theoretically stops.

    Dew Point

    Dew point- is the temperature to which air must be cooled at constant pressure to reach saturation.

    Saturation is the point at which the air holds as much water vapor as it possibly can.

    Condensation- when matter changes state from a gas to a liquid

    Vertical Temperature Changes

    Dry adiabatic lapse rate- the rate at which unsaturated air to which no heat is added or removed will cool.

    Lifted condensation level- the height at which condensation occurs

    Air Pressure and Density

    Atmospheric pressure decreases with height because there are fewer and fewer gas particles exerting pressure.

    The density of air is proportional to the number of particles of air occupying a particular space.

    Pressure-Temperature-Density Relationship

    Pressure increases or decreases, so does temperature. Temperature increases or decreases, so does pressure.

    Temperature increases, density decreases. Density increases, temperature decreases.

    Temperature Inversions

    Temperature Inversion-is an increase in temperature with height in an atmospheric layer.

    The Temperature-altitude relationship is inverted or turned upside down.

    Wind

    Cool air, being more dense, sinks and forces warm, less dense air upward. In the lower atmosphere, air generally moves from areas of high density to areas of low density. The air moves in response to density imbalances created by the unequal heating and cooling of Earth檚 surface. These imbalances create areas of high and low pressure.

    Near earth檚 surfaces, wind is disrupted by the friction that results from its contact with trees (etc). Father up, there is nothing to disturb the wind and there is less friction, increasing wind speeds.

    Relative Humidity

    Humidity- the amount of water vapor in the air

    Relative Humidity- the ratio of water vapor in a volume of air relative to how much water vapor that volume of air is capable of holding

    RH is expressed in percentage. If a certain volume of air is holding as much water vapor as it possibly can, its RH is 100%.Doing notes?
    Well, if you are doing notes off of this (which is entirely correct I might add), then you might as well write it in your own words. However, if these are your notes, then I will state that you take good notes.

    Why is the java class not compiling?

    class MathFun

    {

    private double far = ((double)5/9); // (5/9)

    private double cel = ((double)9/5); // (9/5)

    private double PI = Math.PI(); // (pi)

    public MathFun ( ) { }



    double fToC (double F)

    return celsius;

    }



    double cToF (double C)

    double PI = Math.PI;

    double sqr = Math.pow(r,3);

    double volume = vol * PI * sqr;

    return volume;

    }





    its saying that PI is not a variable, how do i change it in order to work.Why is the java class not compiling?
    Whenever you want to use the pi value simply write Math.PI:

    聽聽}

    }



    RegardsWhy is the java class not compiling?
    YAY! You've got:



    Math.Pi() -- As a function in Line 5



    Math.PI -- As a value in Line 24



    Check the Java doc. One of those should not be right.
