Posted: 10:40 PM Oct 5, 2011 Reporter: Gary Parker Email Address: gary.parker@wctv.tv www.wctv.tv/news/headlines/Tallahassee_Officials_Outraged... Tallahassee, FL -- October 5, 2011 -- Can the most livable city also be one of the most dangerous? That's what a new Forbes magazine article is saying about Tallahassee. "This is outlandish," Tallahassee Police Chief Dennis Jones says. "It's a slap in the face to this community." Jones is one of many leaders angry at Forbes magazine. Forbes released an online article listing Tallahassee as the country's 8th most dangerous city. This coming the same year Tallahassee was named the country's "most livable city" by the U.S. Conference of Mayors. Now bad press Jones says may soil its image. "There is significant concern among our community leaders and as well as our businesses that real damage has been done." Mayor John Marks says Forbes misused the FBI's Uniform Crime Report data in its article. "Those statistics simply say you should not use this information when talking about ranking cities." Marks says Forbes also used crime data from Tallahassee's entire metropolitin area. That he says includes Leon, Gadsden, Wakulla and Jefferson County. "Some of the cities in this statistical area are at least 50 miles away." Marks urges Tallahassee residents to read the article and voice their opinions to Forbes. ------------------------------ Statement from Mayor John Marks: Tallahassee is a top 10 city, but not in crime. We've been named one of the most livable cities in the world, we've been proclaimed one of the most desirable places to do business, and we're one of the least expensive and best places to retire in the U.S. Several of the major flaws in this ludicrous interpretation by Forbes, includes evaluating Tallahassee by including the entire metropolitan statistical area, that includes four counties, 19 cities and towns that span from Chattahoochee to Monticello. If you look at the City of Tallahassee by itself, we average 8 homicides a year. Other cities have 8 a weekend. People who live in Tallahassee and Leon County know this is simply not true, it is outrageous and it is ridiculous. This afternoon I took part in a conference call with local business, community and government leaders, all of whom are outraged and also concerned about the impact of this on line publication and how the rest of the country views our city. I personally called the Forbes Executive Editor – Dan Bigman – this afternoon to express my outrage. During our conversation, he agreed to make changes that clarify that this online article referred to the MSA. Mr. Bigman agreed to also include comments on line that I am sending to him and clarified that this article would not be included in the print edition of Forbes Magazine. I hope that every person in our community will take this personally and to go online to Forbes Magazine and let them know this story does not accurately reflect our community or its citizens. Latest Comments Posted by: I agree with the Forbes article on Oct 6, 2011 at 08:00 AM Based on the population of the greater Tallahassee area we have a much higher crime rate than the majority of metros in the country. The last 5-6 years the number of violent crimes in Leon County has gone up drastically. When I moved to Tallahassee in the middle 90s violent crimes were reported weekly not two and three per day. The Mayor is attempting damage control, as he should, but he can't deny that our area isn't a safe haven. Posted by: Anonymous on Oct 6, 2011 at 07:40 AM marks isn't accused of any violent crime.

The Miami Herald ... www.miamiherald.com ... The Miami Herald > Living > Food ... KITCHEN Q&A How do you bake a crisp cookie? Posted on Thursday, 10.04.12 BY KATHLEEN PURVIS THE CHARLOTTE OBSERVER www.miamiherald.com/2012/10/04/3030954/how-do-you-bake-a-... Q. We like crisp cookies, so I set out on a quest to find out what makes them crisp. One of the suggestions on a baking website was to use egg yolks instead of the whole egg. If the recipe calls for two eggs, would you use two egg yolks? What do you add to make up for the moisture the whites provide? . .................................. img code photo ... crisp cookies media.miamiherald.com/smedia/2012/10/02/14/43/19cJMw.Em.5... DAVIE HINSHAW .................................. . Most cookie recipes call for one egg, so you could use two yolks without much loss of moisture. But I think eggs may be the wrong culprit. While some baking sites do suggest using yolks only for crispness, many more disagree with that theory — with good reason. Egg whites generally give crispness and dryness to the final texture of baking goods. Egg yolks contain most of the egg's fat, so they contribute richness and a softer, cakier texture. Instead, I'd look at two other factors that are involved with crispness. The first is the sugar. Brown sugar is more moist, while white sugar causes dryness. So you want a recipe that has more white than brown sugar. A cookie that has all brown sugar is going to be softer after it's baked. Second, make sure you're using butter instead of shortening. Butter makes cookies crisp while shortening makes them softer. . . ............................................................................................................................................................................................. . .

    Image by Chris Devers See more photos of this, and the Wikipedia article. Details, quoting from Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Lockheed P-38J-10-LO Lightning In the P-38 Lockheed engineer Clarence "Kelly" Johnson and his team of designers created one of the most successful twin-engine fighters ever flown by any nation. From 1942 to 1945, U. S. Army Air Forces pilots flew P-38s over Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific, and from the frozen Aleutian Islands to the sun-baked deserts of North Africa. Lightning pilots in the Pacific theater downed more Japanese aircraft than pilots flying any other Allied warplane. Maj. Richard I. Bong, America's leading fighter ace, flew this P-38J-10-LO on April 16, 1945, at Wright Field, Ohio, to evaluate an experimental method of interconnecting the movement of the throttle and propeller control levers. However, his right engine exploded in flight before he could conduct the experiment. Transferred from the United States Air Force. Manufacturer: Lockheed Aircraft Company Date: 1943 Country of Origin: United States of America Dimensions: Overall: 390 x 1170cm, 6345kg, 1580cm (12ft 9 9/16in. x 38ft 4 5/8in., 13988.2lb., 51ft 10 1/16in.) Materials: All-metal Physical Description: Twin-tail boom and twin-engine fighter; tricycle landing gear. Long Description: From 1942 to 1945, the thunder of P-38 Lightnings was heard around the world. U. S. Army pilots flew the P-38 over Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific; from the frozen Aleutian Islands to the sun-baked deserts of North Africa. Measured by success in combat, Lockheed engineer Clarence "Kelly" Johnson and a team of designers created the most successful twin-engine fighter ever flown by any nation. In the Pacific Theater, Lightning pilots downed more Japanese aircraft than pilots flying any other Army Air Forces warplane. Johnson and his team conceived this twin-engine, single-pilot fighter airplane in 1936 and the Army Air Corps authorized the firm to build it in June 1937. Lockheed finished constructing the prototype XP-38 and delivered it to the Air Corps on New Year's Day, 1939. Air Corps test pilot and P-38 project officer, Lt. Benjamin S. Kelsey, first flew the aircraft on January 27. Losing this prototype in a crash at Mitchel Field, New York, with Kelsey at the controls, did not deter the Air Corps from ordering 13 YP-38s for service testing on April 27. Kelsey survived the crash and remained an important part of the Lightning program. Before the airplane could be declared ready for combat, Lockheed had to block the effects of high-speed aerodynamic compressibility and tail buffeting, and solve other problems discovered during the service tests. The most vexing difficulty was the loss of control in a dive caused by aerodynamic compressibility. During late spring 1941, Air Corps Major Signa A. Gilke encountered serious trouble while diving his Lightning at high-speed from an altitude of 9,120 m (30,000 ft). When he reached an indicated airspeed of about 515 kph (320 mph), the airplane's tail began to shake violently and the nose dropped until the dive was almost vertical. Signa recovered and landed safely and the tail buffet problem was soon resolved after Lockheed installed new fillets to improve airflow where the cockpit gondola joined the wing center section. Seventeen months passed before engineers began to determine what caused the Lightning's nose to drop. They tested a scale model P-38 in the Ames Laboratory wind tunnel operated by the NACA (National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics) and found that shock waves formed when airflow over the wing leading edges reached transonic speeds. The nose drop and loss of control was never fully remedied but Lockheed installed dive recovery flaps under each wing in 1944. These devices slowed the P-38 enough to allow the pilot to maintain control when diving at high-speed. Just as the development of the North American P-51 Mustang, Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, and the Vought F4U Corsair (see NASM collection for these aircraft) pushed the limits of aircraft performance into unexplored territory, so too did P-38 development. The type of aircraft envisioned by the Lockheed design team and Air Corps strategists in 1937 did not appear until June 1944. This protracted shakedown period mirrors the tribulations suffered by Vought in sorting out the many technical problems that kept F4U Corsairs off U. S. Navy carrier decks until the end of 1944. Lockheed's efforts to trouble-shoot various problems with the design also delayed high-rate, mass production. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the company had delivered only 69 Lightnings to the Army. Production steadily increased and at its peak in 1944, 22 sub-contractors built various Lightning components and shipped them to Burbank, California, for final assembly. Consolidated-Vultee (Convair) subcontracted to build the wing center section and the firm later became prime manufacturer for 2,000 P-38Ls but that company's Nashville plant completed only 113 examples of this Lightning model before war's end. Lockheed and Convair finished 10,038 P-38 aircraft including 500 photo-reconnaissance models. They built more L models, 3,923, than any other version. To ease control and improve stability, particularly at low speeds, Lockheed equipped all Lightnings, except a batch ordered by Britain, with propellers that counter-rotated. The propeller to the pilot's left turned counter-clockwise and the propeller to his right turned clockwise, so that one propeller countered the torque and airflow effects generated by the other. The airplane also performed well at high speeds and the definitive P-38L model could make better than 676 kph (420 mph) between 7,600 and 9,120 m (25,000 and 30,000 ft). The design was versatile enough to carry various combinations of bombs, air-to-ground rockets, and external fuel tanks. The multi-engine configuration reduced the Lightning loss-rate to anti-aircraft gunfire during ground attack missions. Single-engine airplanes equipped with power plants cooled by pressurized liquid, such as the North American P-51 Mustang (see NASM collection), were particularly vulnerable. Even a small nick in one coolant line could cause the engine to seize in a matter of minutes. The first P-38s to reach the Pacific combat theater arrived on April 4, 1942, when a version of the Lightning that carried reconnaissance cameras (designated the F-4), joined the 8th Photographic Squadron based in Australia. This unit launched the first P-38 combat missions over New Guinea and New Britain during April. By May 29, the first 25 P-38s had arrived in Anchorage, Alaska. On August 9, pilots of the 343rd Fighter Group, Eleventh Air Force, flying the P-38E, shot down a pair of Japanese flying boats. Back in the United States, Army Air Forces leaders tried to control a rumor that Lightnings killed their own pilots. On August 10, 1942, Col. Arthur I. Ennis, Chief of U. S. Army Air Forces Public Relations in Washington, told a fellow officer "… Here's what the 4th Fighter [training] Command is up against… common rumor out there that the whole West Coast was filled with headless bodies of men who jumped out of P-38s and had their heads cut off by the propellers." Novice Lightning pilots unfamiliar with the correct bailout procedures actually had more to fear from the twin-boom tail, if an emergency dictated taking to the parachute but properly executed, Lightning bailouts were as safe as parachuting from any other high-performance fighter of the day. Misinformation and wild speculation about many new aircraft was rampant during the early War period. Along with U. S. Navy Grumman F4F Wildcats (see NASM collection) and Curtiss P-40 Warhawks (see NASM collection), Lightnings were the first American fighter airplanes capable of consistently defeating Japanese fighter aircraft. On November 18, men of the 339th Fighter Squadron became the first Lightning pilots to attack Japanese fighters. Flying from Henderson Field on Guadalcanal, they claimed three during a mission to escort Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bombers (see NASM collection). On April 18, 1943, fourteen P-38 pilots from the 70th and the 339th Fighter Squadrons, 347th Fighter Group, accomplished one of the most important Lightning missions of the war. American ULTRA cryptanalysts had decoded Japanese messages that revealed the timetable for a visit to the front by the commander of the Imperial Japanese Navy, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. This charismatic leader had crafted the plan to attack Pearl Harbor and Allied strategists believed his loss would severely cripple Japanese morale. The P-38 pilots flew 700 km (435 miles) at heights from 3-15 m (10-50 feet) above the ocean to avoid detection. Over the coast of Bougainville, they intercepted a formation of two Mitsubishi G4M BETTY bombers (see NASM collection) carrying the Admiral and his staff, and six Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighters (see NASM collection) providing escort. The Lightning pilots downed both bombers but lost Lt. Ray Hine to a Zero. In Europe, the first Americans to down a Luftwaffe aircraft were Lt. Elza E. Shahan flying a 27th Fighter Squadron P-38E, and Lt. J. K. Shaffer flying a Curtiss P-40 (see NASM collection) in the 33rd Fighter Squadron. The two flyers shared the destruction of a Focke-Wulf Fw 200C-3 Condor maritime strike aircraft over Iceland on August 14, 1942. Later that month, the 1st fighter group accepted Lightnings and began combat operations from bases in England but this unit soon moved to fight in North Africa. More than a year passed before the P-38 reappeared over Western Europe. While the Lightning was absent, U. S. Army Air Forces strategists had relearned a painful lesson: unescorted bombers cannot operate successfully in the face of determined opposition from enemy fighters. When P-38s returned to England, the primary mission had become long-range bomber escort at ranges of about 805 kms (500 miles) and at altitudes above 6,080 m (20,000 ft). On October 15, 1943, P-38H pilots in the 55th Fighter Group flew their first combat mission over Europe at a time when the need for long-range escorts was acute. Just the day before, German fighter pilots had destroyed 60 of 291 Eighth Air Force B-17 Flying Fortresses (see NASM collection) during a mission to bomb five ball-bearing plants at Schweinfurt, Germany. No air force could sustain a loss-rate of nearly 20 percent for more than a few missions but these targets lay well beyond the range of available escort fighters (Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, see NASM collection). American war planners hoped the long-range capabilities of the P-38 Lightning could halt this deadly trend, but the very high and very cold environment peculiar to the European air war caused severe power plant and cockpit heating difficulties for the Lightning pilots. The long-range escort problem was not completely solved until the North American P-51 Mustang (see NASM collection) began to arrive in large numbers early in 1944. Poor cockpit heating in the H and J model Lightnings made flying and fighting at altitudes that frequently approached 12,320 m (40,000 ft) nearly impossible. This was a fundamental design flaw that Kelly Johnson and his team never anticipated when they designed the airplane six years earlier. In his seminal work on the Allison V-1710 engine, Daniel Whitney analyzed in detail other factors that made the P-38 a disappointing airplane in combat over Western Europe. • Many new and inexperienced pilots arrived in England during December 1943, along with the new J model P-38 Lightning. • J model rated at 1,600 horsepower vs. 1,425 for earlier H model Lightnings. This power setting required better maintenance between flights. It appears this work was not done in many cases. • During stateside training, Lightning pilots were taught to fly at high rpm settings and low engine manifold pressure during cruise flight. This was very hard on the engines, and not in keeping with technical directives issued by Allison and Lockheed. • The quality of fuel in England may have been poor, TEL (tetraethyl lead) fuel additive appeared to condense inside engine induction manifolds, causing detonation (destructive explosion of fuel mixture rather than controlled burning). • Improved turbo supercharger intercoolers appeared on the J model P-38. These devices greatly reduced manifold temperatures but this encouraged TEL condensation in manifolds during cruise flight and increased spark plug fouling. Using water injection to minimize detonation might have reduced these engine problems. Both the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt and the North American P-51 Mustang (see NASM collection) were fitted with water injection systems but not the P-38. Lightning pilots continued to fly, despite these handicaps. During November 1942, two all-Lightning fighter groups, the 1st and the 14th, began operating in North Africa. In the Mediterranean Theater, P-38 pilots flew more sorties than Allied pilots flying any other type of fighter. They claimed 608 enemy a/c destroyed in the air, 123 probably destroyed and 343 damaged, against the loss of 131 Lightnings. In the war against Japan, the P-38 truly excelled. Combat rarely occurred above 6,080 m (20,000 ft) and the engine and cockpit comfort problems common in Europe never plagued pilots in the Pacific Theater. The Lightning's excellent range was used to full advantage above the vast expanses of water. In early 1945, Lightning pilots of the 12th Fighter Squadron, 18th Fighter Group, flew a mission that lasted 10 ½ hours and covered more than 3,220 km (2,000 miles). In August, P-38 pilots established the world's long-distance record for a World War II combat fighter when they flew from the Philippines to the Netherlands East Indies, a distance of 3,703 km (2,300 miles). During early 1944, Lightning pilots in the 475th Fighter Group began the 'race of aces.' By March, Lieutenant Colonel Thomas J. Lynch had scored 21 victories before he fell to antiaircraft gunfire while strafing enemy ships. Major Thomas B. McGuire downed 38 Japanese aircraft before he was killed when his P-38 crashed at low altitude in early January 1945. Major Richard I. Bong became America's highest scoring fighter ace (40 victories) but died in the crash of a Lockheed P-80 (see NASM collection) on August 6, 1945. Museum records show that Lockheed assigned the construction number 422-2273 to the National Air and Space Museum's P-38. The Army Air Forces accepted this Lightning as a P-38J-l0-LO on November 6, 1943, and the service identified the airplane with the serial number 42-67762. Recent investigations conducted by a team of specialists at the Paul E. Garber Facility, and Herb Brownstein, a volunteer in the Aeronautics Division at the National Air and Space Museum, have revealed many hitherto unknown aspects to the history of this aircraft. Brownstein examined NASM files and documents at the National Archives. He discovered that a few days after the Army Air Forces (AAF) accepted this airplane, the Engineering Division at Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio, granted Lockheed permission to convert this P-38 into a two-seat trainer. The firm added a seat behind the pilot to accommodate an instructor who would train civilian pilots in instrument flying techniques. Once trained, these test pilots evaluated new Lightnings fresh off the assembly line. In a teletype sent by the Engineering Division on March 2, 1944, Brownstein also discovered that this P-38 was released to Colonel Benjamin S. Kelsey from March 3 to April 10, 1944, to conduct special tests. This action was confirmed the following day in a cable from the War Department. This same pilot, then a Lieutenant, flew the XP-38 across the United States in 1939 and survived the crash that destroyed this Lightning at Mitchel Field, New York. In early 1944, Kelsey was assigned to the Eighth Air Force in England and he apparently traveled to the Lockheed factory at Burbank to pick up the P-38. Further information about these tests and Kelsey's involvement remain an intriguing question. One of Brownstein's most important discoveries was a small file rich with information about the NASM Lightning. This file contained a cryptic reference to a "Major Bong" who flew the NASM P-38 on April 16, 1945, at Wright Field. Bong had planned to fly for an hour to evaluate an experimental method of interconnecting the movement of the throttle and propeller control levers. His flight ended after twenty-minutes when "the right engine blew up before I had a chance [to conduct the test]." The curator at the Richard I. Bong Heritage Center confirmed that America's highest scoring ace made this flight in the NASM P-38 Lightning. Working in Building 10 at the Paul E. Garber Facility, Rob Mawhinney, Dave Wilson, Wil Lee, Bob Weihrauch, Jim Purton, and Heather Hutton spent several months during the spring and summer of 2001 carefully disassembling, inspecting, and cleaning the NASM Lightning. They found every hardware modification consistent with a model J-25 airplane, not the model J-10 painted in the data block beneath the artifact's left nose. This fact dovetails perfectly with knowledge uncovered by Brownstein. On April 10, the Engineering Division again cabled Lockheed asking the company to prepare 42-67762 for transfer to Wright Field "in standard configuration." The standard P-38 configuration at that time was the P-38J-25. The work took several weeks and the fighter does not appear on Wright Field records until May 15, 1944. On June 9, the Flight Test Section at Wright Field released the fighter for flight trials aimed at collecting pilot comments on how the airplane handled. Wright Field's Aeromedical Laboratory was the next organization involved with this P-38. That unit installed a kit on July 26 that probably measured the force required to move the control wheel left and right to actuate the power-boosted ailerons installed in all Lightnings beginning with version J-25. From August 12-16, the Power Plant Laboratory carried out tests to measure the hydraulic pump temperatures on this Lightning. Then beginning September 16 and lasting about ten days, the Bombing Branch, Armament Laboratory, tested type R-3 fragmentation bomb racks. The work appears to have ended early in December. On June 20, 1945, the AAF Aircraft Distribution Office asked that the Air Technical Service Command transfer the Lightning from Wright Field to Altus Air Force Base, Oklahoma, a temporary holding area for Air Force museum aircraft. The P-38 arrived at the Oklahoma City Air Depot on June 27, 1945, and mechanics prepared the fighter for flyable storage. Airplane Flight Reports for this Lightning also describe the following activities and movements: 6-21-45 Wright Field, Ohio, 5.15 hours of flying. 6-22-45Wright Field, Ohio, .35 minutes of flying by Lt. Col. Wendel [?] J. Kelley and P. Shannon. 6-25-45Altus, Oklahoma, .55 hours flown, pilot P. Shannon. 6-27-45Altus, Oklahoma, #2 engine changed, 1.05 hours flown by Air Corps F/O Ralph F.

Heckel. 7-31-46 Freeman Field, Indiana, 4120th AAF Base Unit, ferry flight to Orchard Place [Illinois] by 1st Lt. Charles C. Heckel. On August 5, 1946, the AAF moved the aircraft to another storage site at the former Consolidated B-24 bomber assembly plant at Park Ridge, Illinois. A short time later, the AAF transferred custody of the Lightning and more than sixty other World War II-era airplanes to the Smithsonian National Air Museum. During the early 1950s, the Air Force moved these airplanes from Park Ridge to the Smithsonian storage site at Suitland, Maryland. • • • Quoting from Wikipedia | Lockheed P-38 Lightning: The Lockheed P-38 Lightning was a World War II American fighter aircraft built by Lockheed. Developed to a United States Army Air Corps requirement, the P-38 had distinctive twin booms and a single, central nacelle containing the cockpit and armament. Named "fork-tailed devil" by the Luftwaffe and "two planes, one pilot" by the Japanese, the P-38 was used in a number of roles, including dive bombing, level bombing, ground-attack, photo reconnaissance missions, and extensively as a long-range escort fighter when equipped with drop tanks under its wings. The P-38 was used most successfully in the Pacific Theater of Operations and the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations as the mount of America's top aces, Richard Bong (40 victories) and Thomas McGuire (38 victories). In the South West Pacific theater, the P-38 was the primary long-range fighter of United States Army Air Forces until the appearance of large numbers of P-51D Mustangs toward the end of the war. The P-38 was unusually quiet for a fighter, the exhaust muffled by the turbo-superchargers. It was extremely forgiving, and could be mishandled in many ways, but the rate of roll was too slow for it to excel as a dogfighter. The P-38 was the only American fighter aircraft in production throughout American involvement in the war, from Pearl Harbor to Victory over Japan Day. Variants: Lightning in maturity: P-38J The P-38J was introduced in August 1943. The turbo-supercharger intercooler system on previous variants had been housed in the leading edges of the wings and had proven vulnerable to combat damage and could burst if the wrong series of controls were mistakenly activated. In the P-38J model, the streamlined engine nacelles of previous Lightnings were changed to fit the intercooler radiator between the oil coolers, forming a "chin" that visually distinguished the J model from its predecessors. While the P-38J used the same V-1710-89/91 engines as the H model, the new core-type intercooler more efficiently lowered intake manifold temperatures and permitted a substantial increase in rated power. The leading edge of the outer wing was fitted with 55 gal (208 l) fuel tanks, filling the space formerly occupied by intercooler tunnels, but these were omitted on early P-38J blocks due to limited availability. The final 210 J models, designated P-38J-25-LO, alleviated the compressibility problem through the addition of a set of electrically-actuated dive recovery flaps just outboard of the engines on the bottom centerline of the wings. With these improvements, a USAAF pilot reported a dive speed of almost 600 mph (970 km/h), although the indicated air speed was later corrected for compressibility error, and the actual dive speed was lower. Lockheed manufactured over 200 retrofit modification kits to be installed on P-38J-10-LO and J-20-LO already in Europe, but the USAAF C-54 carrying them was shot down by an RAF pilot who mistook the Douglas transport for a German Focke-Wulf Condor. Unfortunately the loss of the kits came during Lockheed test pilot Tony LeVier's four-month morale-boosting tour of P-38 bases. Flying a new Lightning named "Snafuperman" modified to full P-38J-25-LO specs at Lockheed's modification center near Belfast, LeVier captured the pilots' full attention by routinely performing maneuvers during March 1944 that common Eighth Air Force wisdom held to be suicidal. It proved too little too late because the decision had already been made to re-equip with Mustangs. The P-38J-25-LO production block also introduced hydraulically-boosted ailerons, one of the first times such a system was fitted to a fighter. This significantly improved the Lightning's rate of roll and reduced control forces for the pilot. This production block and the following P-38L model are considered the definitive Lightnings, and Lockheed ramped up production, working with subcontractors across the country to produce hundreds of Lightnings each month. Noted P-38 pilots Richard Bong and Thomas McGuire The American ace of aces and his closest competitor both flew Lightnings as they tallied 40 and 38 victories respectively. Majors Richard I. "Dick" Bong and Thomas J. "Tommy" McGuire of the USAAF competed for the top position. Both men were awarded the Medal of Honor. McGuire was killed in air combat in January 1945 over the Philippines, after racking up 38 confirmed kills, making him the second-ranking American ace. Bong was rotated back to the United States as America's ace of aces, after making 40 kills, becoming a test pilot. He was killed on 6 August 1945, the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Japan, when his P-80 Shooting Star jet fighter flamed out on takeoff. Charles Lindbergh The famed aviator Charles Lindbergh toured the South Pacific as a civilian contractor for United Aircraft Corporation, comparing and evaluating performance of single- and twin-engined fighters for Vought. He worked to improve range and load limits of the F4U Corsair, flying both routine and combat strafing missions in Corsairs alongside Marine pilots. In Hollandia, he attached himself to the 475th FG flying P-38s so that he could investigate the twin-engine fighter. Though new to the machine, he was instrumental in extending the range of the P-38 through improved throttle settings, or engine-leaning techniques, notably by reducing engine speed to 1,600 rpm, setting the carburetors for auto-lean and flying at 185 mph (298 km/h) indicated airspeed which reduced fuel consumption to 70 gal/h, about 2.6 mpg. This combination of settings had been considered dangerous; it was thought it would upset the fuel mixture and cause an explosion. Everywhere Lindbergh went in the South Pacific, he was accorded the normal preferential treatment of a visiting colonel, though he had resigned his Air Corps Reserve colonel's commission three years before. While with the 475th, he held training classes and took part in a number of Army Air Corps combat missions. On 28 July 1944, Lindbergh shot down a Mitsubishi Ki-51 "Sonia" flown expertly by the veteran commander of 73rd Independent Flying Chutai, Imperial Japanese Army Captain Saburo Shimada. In an extended, twisting dogfight in which many of the participants ran out of ammunition, Shimada turned his aircraft directly toward Lindbergh who was just approaching the combat area. Lindbergh fired in a defensive reaction brought on by Shimada's apparent head-on ramming attack. Hit by cannon and machine gun fire, the "Sonia's" propeller visibly slowed, but Shimada held his course. Lindbergh pulled up at the last moment to avoid collision as the damaged "Sonia" went into a steep dive, hit the ocean and sank. Lindbergh's wingman, ace Joseph E. "Fishkiller" Miller, Jr., had also scored hits on the "Sonia" after it had begun its fatal dive, but Miller was certain the kill credit was Lindbergh's. The unofficial kill was not entered in the 475th's war record. On 12 August 1944 Lindbergh left Hollandia to return to the United States. Charles MacDonald The seventh-ranking American ace, Charles H. MacDonald, flew a Lightning against the Japanese, scoring 27 kills in his famous aircraft, the Putt Putt Maru. Robin Olds Main article: Robin Olds Robin Olds was the last P-38 ace in the Eighth Air Force and the last in the ETO. Flying a P-38J, he downed five German fighters on two separate missions over France and Germany. He subsequently transitioned to P-51s to make seven more kills. After World War II, he flew F-4 Phantom IIs in Vietnam, ending his career as brigadier general with 16 kills. Clay Tice A P-38 piloted by Clay Tice was the first American aircraft to land in Japan after VJ-Day, when he and his wingman set down on Nitagahara because his wingman was low on fuel. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Noted aviation pioneer and writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry vanished in a F-5B-1-LO, 42-68223, c/n 2734, of Groupe de Chasse II/33, out of Borgo-Porreta, Bastia, Corsica, a reconnaissance variant of the P-38, while on a flight over the Mediterranean, from Corsica to mainland France, on 31 July 1944. His health, both physical and mental (he was said to be intermittently subject to depression), had been deteriorating and there had been talk of taking him off flight status. There have been suggestions (although no proof to date) that this was a suicide rather than an aircraft failure or combat loss. In 2000, a French scuba diver found the wreckage of a Lightning in the Mediterranean off the coast of Marseille, and it was confirmed in April 2004 as Saint-Exupéry's F-5B. No evidence of air combat was found. In March 2008, a former Luftwaffe pilot, Horst Rippert from Jagdgruppe 200, claimed to have shot down Saint-Exupéry. Adrian Warburton The RAF's legendary photo-recon "ace", Wing Commander Adrian Warburton DSO DFC, was the pilot of a Lockheed P-38 borrowed from the USAAF that took off on 12 April 1944 to photograph targets in Germany. W/C Warburton failed to arrive at the rendezvous point and was never seen again. In 2003, his remains were recovered in Germany from his wrecked USAAF P-38 Lightning. • • • • • Quoting Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Boeing B-29 Superfortress "Enola Gay": Boeing's B-29 Superfortress was the most sophisticated propeller-driven bomber of World War II and the first bomber to house its crew in pressurized compartments. Although designed to fight in the European theater, the B-29 found its niche on the other side of the globe. In the Pacific, B-29s delivered a variety of aerial weapons: conventional bombs, incendiary bombs, mines, and two nuclear weapons. On August 6, 1945, this Martin-built B-29-45-MO dropped the first atomic weapon used in combat on Hiroshima, Japan. Three days later, Bockscar (on display at the U.S. Air Force Museum near Dayton, Ohio) dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan. Enola Gay flew as the advance weather reconnaissance aircraft that day. A third B-29, The Great Artiste, flew as an observation aircraft on both missions.

Orthodox Union ... Shabbat Shalom ... September 13, 2011 The Quantity and the Quality of Life By Alan Freishtat 1577ab028a32429ab5a929a2ac07d20f Long life, Arichus Yomim, has been said as a bracha (blessing) from one Jew to another for thousands of years. We also say L'chaim!, to Life!, as a blessing to each other as we take a drink. Two blessings we give, but very different in their ramifications. According the the Harvard School of Public Health, beginning in the year 2012, 10,000 people a day will start turning 65.We are aging differently than previous generations, however. Physically and mentally, the health of today's 70-year-old now equals that of a 65-year-old in the 1970s. In that period, deaths from heart disease and many cancers have dipped. And while most older adults have at least one chronic health problem, disability has slowly and significantly declined. It is interesting to note, that the United States has been slipping in its longevity ratings compared to other countries. Israel, on the other hand has been climbing. When the numbers are added up more carefully, though, there are obvious differences between men and women and people of different races. A newborn boy born in 2004 or after can expect to live a bit more than 75 years, while his sister can expect to live to slightly more than 80. As you grow older, your average life expectancy stretches. For example, while the life expectancy of a newborn in the United States is nearly 78, a 65-year-old can expect to live 19 years longer, and a 75-year-old for another 12 years. What is just as important as Long Life, is the L'chaim part of it—living life and how to maintain not only longevity but quality of life until 120. Why did life expectancy increase so much in the 20th century in developed nations? Whether individuals develop a particular disease is usually determined by three things: their lifestyle (including diet and exercise), their environment (such as exposure to infectious microbes or toxins), and their genes. Increased life span surely has nothing to do with genes: our genes today are the same as they were a century ago. Instead, changes in lifestyle and environment are responsible. Changes in the environment—such as better sanitation, the use of antibiotics, and many other improvements in medical care—can claim much of the credit. As for lifestyle, in developed nations, nutritional deficiency diseases largely were eliminated in the last century. Still, not all nutritional changes have been entirely for the better. In the United States, at the turn of the 20th century, most Americans lived on farms or in rural communities. We ate fresh, unprocessed food every day, and we worked hard physically. Today, our diets are less healthful in many ways, and we exercise less. And that leads us to the second blessing—L'chaim! The doctors can definitely help us live longer with all of the great advancement in medical care and medicines that we have today. But there is so much that we can do that will extend and enhance our lives. And we all understand the value of every second of life. So it is incumbent upon us to take our well being into our own hands. The Be'er HaGolah at the very end of Choshen Mishpat tells us there is not bigger Hefkerus than not taking care of one's self and the Rambam in Hilchos Daos 4:1, 14 writes very clearly: "Because for the body to be healthy and wholesome is among the ways of Hashem... therefore a person must distance himself from those things that cause his body damage... And they stated another rule relating to the health of the body: As long as a person engages in physical activity (= exercise) and works hard... no illness will attack him and his strength will increase." So what are some practical measures we can take to both extend life and be able to server the Ribono Shel Olam well during that time? Again, Harvard Medical School gives us some practical tips to do to the best of our ability: 1. Don't smoke. 2. Include physical and mental activities into daily life. 3. Eat a healthy diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, and fruits, and substitute healthier monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats for unhealthy saturated fats and trans fats. 4. Take a daily multivitamin, and be sure to get enough calcium and vitamin D. 5. Maintain a healthy weight and body shape. 6. Challenge your mind. 7. Build a strong social network. 8. Protect your sight, hearing, and general health by following preventive care guidelines. 9. Floss, brush, and see a dentist regularly. Poor oral health may have many repercussions, including poor nutrition, unnecessary pain, and possibly even a higher risk of heart disease and stroke. 10. Discuss with your doctor whether you need any medication—perhaps to control high blood pressure, treat osteoporosis, or lower cholesterol—to help you stay healthy. Most of your health and longevity is in your hands. Hashem has given us all the tools at our disposal in order to maintain health. Let's use them. Be active, exercise, eat right, stay positive, manage and reduce stress. Following these tips can "add hours to your day, days to your year and years to your life."

    No, a firming cellulite lotion won't work to remove cellulite. The following will help remove cellulite: Dry skin body brushing Cellulite massage Drink plenty of water Leg exercises including squats and leg raises See http://www.ridofcellulite.org for info on this. The action of massaging a cellulite lotion into your legs will help, but it's not actually the ingredients in the lotion.

    what are some fantastic exercises for the butt and hips?

    Question by Ashley: what are some fantastic exercises for the butt and hips? I have an hourglass shaped body, but I'm a little ashamed of it because my cousins are skinny and I feel like the only chunky one. I am a little chubby and my butt has some dimples. I wear a size 10/11 in pants. My mom suggested laser cellulite removal to boost my self esteem, but I would rather work it off myself. What are some good exercises for the lower half of my body? I recently started doing Thai Chi and it makes my legs sore, and I have started walking again to pick up my sister from school, it is 3 miles there and back home. I want to have a nice swimsuit body for summer. So any tips will be great. Thanks. Best answer:

Scientist name : Citrus aurantifolia (Christm.) Swingle. Synonyms : C. acida Roxb. C. lima Lunan C. medica var.acida Brandis Limonia aurantifolia Christm. Family : Rutaceae. Họ Cam Chanh Links : **** 1579431e1195f0677288f22214c78a1c GIA VỊ, VỊ THUỐC TỪ CÂY CHANH Lương y Võ Hà Bên cạnh giá trị của một loại gia vị và nước uống giải khát phổ thông, chanh còn là nguồn quan trọng cung cấp vitamin C và những chất chống oxy hoá thuộc nhóm Flavonoids có chức năng giải độc, bảo vệ thành mạch, tăng cường hệ miễn nhiểm và làm chậm sự lão hoá. Căn cứ vào giá trị dinh dưỡng và tác dụng dược lý, chanh được tổ chức Plants for a Future xếp vào nhóm 54 cây thuốc có giá trị dược liệu cao nhất trong một danh mục gồm hơn 7.300 loài thực vật làm thuốc hoặc làm thức ăn. Mô Tả Cây chanh có tên khoa học là Citrus Limonia Osbeck, thuộc họ cam quýt Rutaceae. Chanh là một loại cây nhở, cao từ 1m đến 3m. Thân có gai. Lá hình trứng, dài từ 5,5 đến 11cm, rộng 3,5cm đến 6cm, mép lá có hình răng cưa. Hoa trắng, mọc đơn độc hay từng chùm 2 đến 3 hoa. Vỏ quả có màu xanh, màu xanh chuyển vàng khi quả chín. Quả chia làm nhiều múi. Dịch quả rất chua. Vỏ quả lá chanh có nhiều tinh dầu. Cây chanh được trồng khắp nơi ở nước ta. Nhân dân thường trồng chanh để lấy quả ăn hoặc làm gia vị. Y học dân gian sử dụng vỏ quả, lá và rể cây để làm thuốc. Thành phần hoá học Trong 100gr thịt quả chanh có 90% nước, protein 0,8gr, chất béo 0,5gr, carbohydrate 8,2gr, chất xơ 0,6gr, tro 5,4gr, calcium 33mg, phosphor15mg, sắt 0,5mg, sodium 3mg, potassium 137mg, vitamin A 12mg, thiamin (B1) 0,5mg, riboflavin (B2) 0,02mg, niacin 0,1mg và vitamin C 52mg. Ngoài ra lớp vỏ ngoài của quả chanh và lá chanh có chứa nhiều tinh dầu có mùi thơm dễ chịu. Tinh dầu chanh là một hợp chất có chứa limonene, a pinen, b phelandren, camphen và a tecpinen. Dược tính và công dụng Cây chanh thuộc nhóm 54 cây thuốc có giá trị dược liệu cao nhất trong một danh mục hơn 7.300 loài thực vật được tổ chức Plants For a Future ở Anh Quốc phân loại và xếp hạng căn cứ vào giá trị dinh dưỡng cũng như dược liệu. Bên cạnh một số sinh tố và khoáng chất khác, chanh là một nguồn quan trọng cung cấp vitamin C và những chất chống oxy hoá thuộc nhóm Flavonoids. Do đó chanh có chức năng giải độc, bảo vệ thành mạch, tăng cường hệ miễn dịch và hạn chế tác hại của những gốc tự do để làm chậm sự lão hóa. Kết quả nghiên cứu của những nhà khoa học Nhật Bản cho biết chanh có thể làm gia tăng 19% lượng máu lưu thông trong hệ thống các tỉnh mạch, mao mạch và làm giảm nguy cơ máu đông. Tiến sĩ Elzbieta Kurowska thuộc công ty dược KGK Synergize ở Mỹ cho biết trong lá hoặc vỏ chanh có chứa lượng polymethoxylated flavones (PMF) nhiều gấp 20 lần so với các loại rau quả thông thường. PMF là chất chống oxy hoá thuộc nhóm Flavonoids. Ông Kurowska đã nuôi béo những con chuột đồng bằng chế độ ăn giàu cholesterol rồi cho chúng hấp thu PMF từ lá hoặc vỏ chanh. Kết quả cho thấy chỉ 1% PMF trong khẩu phần ăn hàng ngày cũng làm giảm đến 40% lượng cholesterol LDL ở chuột. Xem ra kết quả nầy cũng phù hợp với tập quán và kinh nghiệm ẩm thực của nhân dân ta. Đó là việc dùng lá chanh ăn kèm với các loại thịt động vật có nhiều chất béo. Đặc biệt và quen thuộc nhất là lá chanh ăn kèm với thịt gà. Tập quán nầy thể hiện qua câu ca dao "con gà cục tác lá chanh". Lá chanh hoặc phần vỏ ngoài của quả chanh không những có thể kích thích tiêu hoá, trung hoà bớt vị béo của thức ăn để giúp ngon miệng mà còn có tác dụng tăng cường chuyển hoá để làm giảm lượng cholesterol xấu trong cơ thể. Các nhà khoa học thuộc trường Đại học Melbourne (Australia) cho biết dịch chiết từ quả chanh có thể giúp phụ nữ tránh thai qua tác dụng làm tê liệt hoạt động của tinh trùng. Nhiều bộ tộc trên thế giới có tập quán ngừa thai bằng cách tẩm dịch quả chanh vào một miếng bọt biển và đặt vào âm đạo. Những nghiên cứu còn cho thấy dịch chiết từ quả chanh có tính sát khuẩn rất cao. Ở nồng độ 20%, dịch chanh có thể tiêu diệt 90% virus HIV. Hiện nay ngoài công dụng là một loại nước giải khát được ưa chuộng, uống nước chanh còn được xem là một liệu pháp bổ sung giúp giải độc, cải thiện thành mạch và hạ huyết áp. Về mặt dưỡng sinh phòng bệnh, một số người chủ trương thực hành tiết thực và giải độc định kỳ bằng cách nhịn ăn một ngày mỗi tuần lễ. Trong ngày nhịn ăn chỉ uống nước chanh đường. Uống nước chanh không những giúp việc nhịn ăn được dễ dàng mà còn bổ sung thêm một số sinh tố, khoáng chất cần thiết, lại có thể tăng cường khả năng giải độc cho cơ thể. Theo Đông y, lá, rễ và vỏ quả chanh có vị the, đắng, mùi thơm, tính bình có tác dụng tán phong giải nhiệt, hoạt huyết, thông kinh lạc, tiêu đờm, tiêu thực, giảm ho, sơ tiết Can khí. Phần lá, rễ và vỏ quả thường dùng chữa tức ngực, khó thở, đau hông sườn, ăn kém, hay nôn, sốt rét và các triệu chứng đau mắt, nhức đầu do Can Đởm hoả vượng. Dịch quả chanh có vị chua, tính mát có tác dụng chỉ khát, thanh nhiệt, lợi tiểu, giải độc. Ngoài ra, chanh cũng dùng để sát trùng hoặc giải độc tại chỗ do trùng thú cắn. Vỏ quả chanh phơi khô có thể dùng để làm thuốc xua đuổi côn trùng, sâu bọ. Lá chanh tươi có chứa nhiều tinh dầu có tính sát khuẩn, chỉ khái và tiêu đờm nên cũng thường được sử dụng làm nguyên liệu cho nồi xông giải cảm, giải độc. Sau đây là một vài đơn thuốc có sử dụng chanh: Nhuận gan, giải độc: Lá chanh 12 gr (phơi âm can) Lá gai 12 gr Lá cối xay 12 gr hoặc: Lá dâu tằm 12 gr Rau má 12 gr Nhân trần 12 gr Vỏ chanh 8 gr (phơi khô, sao qua) Sắc uống.

Citrus aurantifolia Swingle C. acida Roxb. C. lima Lunan C. medica var.acida Brandis Limonia aurantifolia Christm. Food Uses The Mexican lime, because of its special bouquet and unique flavor, is ideal for serving in half as a garnish and flavoring for fish and meats, for adding zest to cold drinks, and for making limeade. In the Bahamas, fishermen and others who spend days in their sailboats, always have with them their bottles of homemade "old sour"–lime juice and salt. Throughout Malaysia, this lime is grown mainly to flavor prepared foods and beverages. Commercially bottled lime juice is prized the world over for use in mixed alcoholic drinks. If whole limes are crushed by the screw-press process, the juice should be treated to remove some of the peel oil. It is calculated that 2,200 lbs (1 metric ton) of fruit should yield 1,058 lbs (480 kg) of juice. Lime juice is made into sirup and sauce and pies similar to lemon pie. "Key Lime Pie" is a famous dish of the Florida Keys and southern Florida, but today is largely made from the frozen concentrate of the 'Tahiti' lime. Mexican limes are often made into jam, jelly and marmalade. In Malaya, they are preserved in sirup. They are also pickled by first making 4 incisions in the apex, covering the fruits with salt, and later preserving them in vinegar. Before serving, the pickled fruits may be fried in coconut oil and sugar and then they are eaten as appetizers. Pickling is done in India by quartering the fruits, layering the pieces with salt in glass or glazed clay jars, and placing in the sun for 3 to 4 days. The contents are stirred once a day. Green chili peppers, turmeric, ginger or other spices may be included at the outset. Coconut or other edible oil may be added last to enhance the keeping quality. Another method of pickling involves scraping the fruits, steeping them in lime juice, then salting and exposing to the sun. Hard, dried limes are exported from India to Iraq for making a special beverage. The oil derived from the Mexican lime is obtained by three different methods in the West Indies: 1) by hand-pressing in a copper bowl studded with spikes (which is called an écuelle). This method yields oil of the highest quality but it is produced in limited amounts. It is an important flavoring for hard candy. 2) by machine pressing, cold expression, of the oil from the spent half-shells after juice extraction, or simultaneously but with no contact with the juice. 3) by distillation from the oily pulp that rises to the top of tanks in which the washed, crushed fruits have been left to settle for 2 weeks to a month. This yields the highest percentage of oil. With terpenes and sesquiterpenes removed, it is extensively used in flavoring soft drinks, confectionery, ice cream, sherbet, and other food products. The settled juice is marketed for beverage manufacturing. The residue can be processed to recover citric acid. The minced leaves are consumed in certain Javanese dishes. In the Philippines, the chopped peel is made into a sweetmeat with milk and coconut.

Other Uses Juice: In the West Indies, the juice has been used in the process of dyeing leather. On the island of St. Johns, a cosmetic manufacturer produces a bottled Lime Moisture Lotion as a skin-conditioner. Peel: The dehydrated peel is fed to cattle. In India, the powdered dried peel and the sludge remaining after clarifying lime juice are employed for cleaning metal. Peel oil: The hand-pressed peel oil is mainly utilized in the perfume industry. Twigs: In tropical Africa, lime twigs are popular chewsticks. Medicinal Uses: Lime juice dispels the irritation and swelling of mosquito bites. In Malaya, the juice is taken as a tonic and to relieve stomach ailments. Mixed with oil, it is given as a vermifuge. The pickled fruit, with other substances, is poulticed on the head to allay neuralgia. In India, the pickled fruit is eaten to relieve indigestion. The juice of the Mexican lime is regarded as an antiseptic, tonic, an antiscorbutic, an astringent, and as a diuretic in liver ailments, a digestive stimulant, a remedy for intestinal hemorrhage and hemorrhoids, heart palpitations, headache, convulsive cough, rheumatism, arthritis, falling hair, bad breath, and as a disinfectant for all kinds of ulcers when applied in a poultice. The leaves are poulticed on skin diseases and on the abdomen of a new mother after childbirth. The leaves or an infusion of the crushed leaves may be applied to relieve headache. The leaf decoction is used as eye drops and to bathe a feverish patient; also as a mouth wash and gargle in cases of sore throat and thrush. The root bark serves as a febrifuge, as does the seed kernel, ground and mixed with lime juice. In addition, there are many purely superstitious uses of the lime in Malaya. **** 77fbd4c8af36191d32145c87cd375fbd Extraction Lime oil can be extracted by expression or by distillation - the peel of the unripe skin by cold expression or the peel and /or the whole ripe fruit by steam distillation. Our lime oil is obtained by steam distillation of the fruit rinds and since it is distilled it does not have a phototoxic effect on the skin. Chemical composition The main constituents in the distilled lime oil, like the one we sell is a-pinene, b-pinene, myrcene, limonene, terpinolene, 1,8-ceneole, linalool, borneol, citral and traces of neral acetate and geranyl acetate. Precautions Non-toxic, non-irritant and non-sensitizing if the oil is obtained by steam extraction, yet the oil obtained from cold expression can cause photosensitivity in strong sunshine and can irritate the skin. Therapeutic properties The therapeutic properties of lime oil are antiseptic, antiviral, astringent, aperitif, bactericidal, disinfectant, febrifuge, haemostatic, restorative and tonic. Uses Lime oil is useful to cool fevers associated with colds, sore throats and flu and aids the immune system while easing coughs, bronchitis and sinusitis, as well as helping asthma. Lime oil can stimulate and refresh a tired mind and helps with depression. It can be helpful for arthritis, rheumatism and poor circulation, as well as for obesity and cellulite and has an astringent and toning action to clear oily skin and acne, and also helps with herpes, insect bites and cuts. Summary Lime oil is beneficial to the immune system, easing infection in the respiratory tract and relieving pain in muscles and joints, while revitalizing a tired mind and banishing the feeling of apathy, anxiety and depression. Burners and vaporizers In vapor therapy, lime oil can be used to lift depression and energize a tired mind, while easing breathing and assisting the digestion. Blended massage oil or in the bath Lime oil can be used as a massage oil or diluted in the bath, to help with painful muscles and joints, respiratory problems and cellulite, as well as when colds and flu strike. Cream or lotion When used in a cream or lotion, it is helpful to clear oily congested skin and is also often used to help fight cellulite and remove the cottage cheese effect from the skin. Lime essential oil blends well with Although most essential oils blend well with one another, Lime oil blends particularly well with neroli, lavender, clary sage and ylang-ylang. **** 9932de44296bf1c76d08a03bc37ca209

Citrus aurantifolia Swingle C. acida Roxb. C. lima Lunan C. medica var.acida Brandis Limonia aurantifolia Christm. Food Uses The Mexican lime, because of its special bouquet and unique flavor, is ideal for serving in half as a garnish and flavoring for fish and meats, for adding zest to cold drinks, and for making limeade. In the Bahamas, fishermen and others who spend days in their sailboats, always have with them their bottles of homemade "old sour"–lime juice and salt. Throughout Malaysia, this lime is grown mainly to flavor prepared foods and beverages. Commercially bottled lime juice is prized the world over for use in mixed alcoholic drinks. If whole limes are crushed by the screw-press process, the juice should be treated to remove some of the peel oil. It is calculated that 2,200 lbs (1 metric ton) of fruit should yield 1,058 lbs (480 kg) of juice. Lime juice is made into sirup and sauce and pies similar to lemon pie. "Key Lime Pie" is a famous dish of the Florida Keys and southern Florida, but today is largely made from the frozen concentrate of the 'Tahiti' lime. Mexican limes are often made into jam, jelly and marmalade. In Malaya, they are preserved in sirup. They are also pickled by first making 4 incisions in the apex, covering the fruits with salt, and later preserving them in vinegar. Before serving, the pickled fruits may be fried in coconut oil and sugar and then they are eaten as appetizers. Pickling is done in India by quartering the fruits, layering the pieces with salt in glass or glazed clay jars, and placing in the sun for 3 to 4 days. The contents are stirred once a day. Green chili peppers, turmeric, ginger or other spices may be included at the outset. Coconut or other edible oil may be added last to enhance the keeping quality. Another method of pickling involves scraping the fruits, steeping them in lime juice, then salting and exposing to the sun. Hard, dried limes are exported from India to Iraq for making a special beverage. The oil derived from the Mexican lime is obtained by three different methods in the West Indies: 1) by hand-pressing in a copper bowl studded with spikes (which is called an écuelle). This method yields oil of the highest quality but it is produced in limited amounts. It is an important flavoring for hard candy. 2) by machine pressing, cold expression, of the oil from the spent half-shells after juice extraction, or simultaneously but with no contact with the juice. 3) by distillation from the oily pulp that rises to the top of tanks in which the washed, crushed fruits have been left to settle for 2 weeks to a month. This yields the highest percentage of oil. With terpenes and sesquiterpenes removed, it is extensively used in flavoring soft drinks, confectionery, ice cream, sherbet, and other food products. The settled juice is marketed for beverage manufacturing. The residue can be processed to recover citric acid. The minced leaves are consumed in certain Javanese dishes. In the Philippines, the chopped peel is made into a sweetmeat with milk and coconut.

Other Uses Juice: In the West Indies, the juice has been used in the process of dyeing leather. On the island of St. Johns, a cosmetic manufacturer produces a bottled Lime Moisture Lotion as a skin-conditioner. Peel: The dehydrated peel is fed to cattle. In India, the powdered dried peel and the sludge remaining after clarifying lime juice are employed for cleaning metal. Peel oil: The hand-pressed peel oil is mainly utilized in the perfume industry. Twigs: In tropical Africa, lime twigs are popular chewsticks. Medicinal Uses: Lime juice dispels the irritation and swelling of mosquito bites. In Malaya, the juice is taken as a tonic and to relieve stomach ailments. Mixed with oil, it is given as a vermifuge. The pickled fruit, with other substances, is poulticed on the head to allay neuralgia. In India, the pickled fruit is eaten to relieve indigestion. The juice of the Mexican lime is regarded as an antiseptic, tonic, an antiscorbutic, an astringent, and as a diuretic in liver ailments, a digestive stimulant, a remedy for intestinal hemorrhage and hemorrhoids, heart palpitations, headache, convulsive cough, rheumatism, arthritis, falling hair, bad breath, and as a disinfectant for all kinds of ulcers when applied in a poultice. The leaves are poulticed on skin diseases and on the abdomen of a new mother after childbirth. The leaves or an infusion of the crushed leaves may be applied to relieve headache. The leaf decoction is used as eye drops and to bathe a feverish patient; also as a mouth wash and gargle in cases of sore throat and thrush. The root bark serves as a febrifuge, as does the seed kernel, ground and mixed with lime juice. In addition, there are many purely superstitious uses of the lime in Malaya. **** 77fbd4c8af36191d32145c87cd375fbd Extraction Lime oil can be extracted by expression or by distillation - the peel of the unripe skin by cold expression or the peel and /or the whole ripe fruit by steam distillation.
