OTOH, we had one on the basement door of out old house and kept the key about a foot away from it. Someone attempted to break in by breaking the window and the deadbolt stopped them. Scary thing was that we were home at the time and never heard anything in the bedroom. |

Initially works wonders, but only until it dries out. If anything, it probably gums up the mechanisms in the long term. Powdered graphite is better, but a silicone based lube is even better again. |

Yes barking dogs can be annoying but it is not the dog's fault. Give the owners shit for that. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

I'll be generous and just say I think she sometimes has trouble with figures of speech and metaphorical type concepts (has happened many times before). We'll just leave it at that... tempting as it is to go further ;) |

Dry measure cups generally come in sets in > various sizes and you dip the cup in and then level it off Actually, for consistency, you should spoon the flour (or whatever) into the cup before levelling off. Scooping variably compresses the flour and can make a significant difference to your baked goods. About the only ingredient that *is* consistent when using measuring cups is granulated sugar.

| notbob <notbob@nothome.com>: Jul 07 09:29PM > Scooping variably compresses the flour and can make a significant > difference to your baked goods. Also, the difference in humidity between one place and another can effect measurements. Which is precisely why some folks choose to weigh. If you have a scale, weigh. If not, consistent meaurement is the answer. I use both and have discovered I sometimes use too much flour when measuring. Sloppy volume measuring, compaction of flour, etc. That is why I provided this link: http://www.onlineconversion.com/weight_volume_cooking.htm If you need some explanation on how it works...... nb |

| cooking.faq@mac.com (Victor Sack): Jul 07 09:08PM +0200 This is a weekly pointer to the rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file. If you do not want to see it every week, you should put the title, which will not change, into your killfile. The rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file is posted monthly to rec.food.cooking, rec.food.recipes, rec.answers and news.answers. It is also available as an easy-to-navigate frames version at <http://vsack.homepage.t-online.de/rfc_faq.html>. There is both a link to a no-frames version and a built-in no-frames content for older or text-only browsers. The rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file has two parts. The first part covers conversion and equivalence. Tables are given for conversion of oven temperatures, food names, weights and measures. Some useful substitutions for unavailable ingredients are suggested. The second part is more descriptive. It outlines some of the commonly discussed topics of rec.food.cooking and explains a number of food terms. It also lists other food-related newsgroups and mailing lists, as well as food-related FAQs, recipe archives and other food/cooking sites. |
