Eat Moar Toona! « Road Flares

More pictures of last weekend’s work on the Volvo Amazon. The new engine is IN. And, she RUNS! For all the naysayers that said, “Nay, there is no way you can build an engine for less than $500!” I say to them, “Look in our engine bay, oh sayer of Nay!”

On Saturday, Gary came over and between the two of us, we wrangled the lump into position and screwed it down. Saturday, Anthony and McCall joined in the fun, and the four of us poring over the engine were soon able to breathe life into the beast. She runs. Very, very well. After clearing the air pockets out of the cooling system and installing the new $16 Sun water temp gauge, the B20 fired up, took up a nice, sweet idle at around 1500 RPM, and came right up to 180 degrees and stayed there. After everybody left for the day, I let the engine ‘break in’ around 1500-2000 RPM for about 20 minutes, or as long as she would run on the oil bottle full of gasoline I had feeding the fuel pump. So far, so good. No strange noises, no drama, even the dwell was still spot-on despite the distributor having been removed from the old engine and reinstalled on this one without being touched. Rob’s points held up well.

I just want you to know, I have NEVER heard a B20 run as smoothly as this one does. And, when I blipped the throttle, it responded instantly. Knock on wood, this seems like one healthy motor! I turned the idle speed screws down as far as they would go, and even with almost no fuel the engine still was turning at 1000 RPM, and smooth as silk.

In other news, we have one small issue- the safety cut-off switch for the electrical system bit the dust somehow, and needs to be replaced. I never liked that switch, and thought it cheap. I guess we’ll have to find another. The rear brakes are 99% done, just need to tighten the castle nuts and cotter-pin them. Anthony is about 95% done with the new fuel cell mounting, and it looks great- secure and very professional. That pretty much just leaves the front brakes, and whatever welding/ hole-filling I have to do on the inside. We made a lot of progress this weekend.

Chinese-toona

Toona sinensis, Cedrella sinensis, or chinese red cedar, originated in china, has been used as vegie/spice since the ancient times in China. The tender leaves and new shoots are the edible parts of the plant.
 
This tree produces top quality timer. It does not attact pests. In fact, pests try to stay away from it.
it has a very unique kind of flavour.

DR. CALI KHALIIF GALEYR: “Cidda oraneysa afraad baa ku shireysa Taleex waa ka been sheegeysaa xaqiiqda, waagaa baryayna nin gacan weyn iyo nin gacan yar toona ma qarin karo”

Axad, January 15, 2012(Idhanka): Ra’iisal Wasaarihii hore ee Soomaaliya Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr oo  Degmada Taleex ee gobolka Sool uga qeybgelaya  Shirka Khaatumo II ayaa wareysi uu siiyay Laanta Afka Soomaaliga ee VOA-da (Halkaan ka dhageyso)  waxaa uu uga hadlay arrimo dhowr ah oo ku saabsan shirkaas Taleex iyo sida uu u arkayo fal-celin uu shirkaas ka keenay Madaxweynaha Somaliland Axmed Maxamed Maxamuud Siilaanyo oo sheegay in ay shirkaas ka qeybgaleen afraad fidno-wadayaal ah.

Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr ayaa nasiib darro ku tilmaamay in sida uu u yiri Axmed Siilaanyo uu sheegay in ay Taleex ku shireen afraad ama shakhsiyaad, wuxuuna caddeeyay in ay shirkaas qabsadeen dadka u dhashay Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn “Waxaa nasiib darro ah in Maxamed Maxamuud Siilaanyo oo diidanaa xukunka xukuumaddii hore oo lahaa xuquuqda dadkeyga ayaa lagu xad-gudbayaa in uu maanta yiraahdo waan diidanahay dadka Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn in ay aayahooda ka tashadaan”ayuu yiri Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr oo caddeeyay in ay si weyn u raddinayaan hadalka uu sheegay Madaxweynaha Somaliland Axmed Siilaanyo.

Waxaa la weydiiyay hadalkiisa in uu u dhacayo in Beesha degta Sool oo shirkii gooni-isu-taagga Somaliland ka qeybgashay ay haatan gebi ahaanba ka baxday heshiiskii lagu dhisay Somaliland, wuxuuna sheegay in uu isago Cali Khaliif ahaan ka qeybgalay labo shir oo arrimhaas looga hadlayay, “Shirarkii 1991 (Burco) iyo 1993-kii (Boorama) labadaba waan ka qeybgalay aniga Cali ahaan, markii hore ee 1991-kii caqli badan in uu meesha yaallo nooma muuqan, waxaa noo muuqatay in hub badan oo Qaranka hubkiisii ahaa in uu gacanta u galay SNM, markaa waxaa noo muuqatay in iyadoo la siman yahay oo cidina aysan cid qasbaneynin wax la xalilo, waxaanu dan moodnay in loo talo badsado, arrin soo jireen ah ma ahayn, arrin ugub ah ayay ahayd, waddanka ayaa la kala goynayaa markaas kuma qanacsaneyn, 20-kii sano kuma qanacsaneyn, maantana kuma qanacsanin”ayuu yiri Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr oo sheegay in dadka Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn u dhashay aysan ogoleyn in dalka Soomaaliya la kala gooyo.

Waxaa uu xusay Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr in shirka Khaatumo II looga hadlayay arrimaha dadka u dhashay Gobollada Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn, isla markaana ugu dambeynta laga soo saari doono maamul madax bannaan oo ay dadka gobolladaas yeeshaan”Arrimaha maamulkaas ku dhawaaqiddiisa gacanta ayaa lagu hayaa, dhaqsina waa loogu dhawaaqi doonaa, cid ka hor-imaan karta oo waagaa baryay iyo qorraxdaa soo baxday gacanta ku celinta kartana ma jirto”ayuu yiri Dr. Cali Khaliif.

Deegaannada uu maamulka lagu dhisayo Taleex ka talin doono haddii lagu dhawaaqo ayaa la weydiiyay Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr, wuxuuna sheegay in dhulka uu ka talin doono ay yihiin Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn, “ Dhulka ay dadkan leeyihiin waa la yaqaan, meelaha la wada degan yahayna waa la yaqaan, u maleyn maayo Siilaanyo in uu Laascaanood ku murmayo ama dhulka SSC ee aan taariikhiyan leenahay, haddii uu taas ka murmana dee isagaa cirka roob ku og” ayuu yiri Dr. Cali Khaliif.

Deegaannadaas oo ay hadda gacanta ku hayaan Ciidamada Somaliland sida ay qorsheynayaan in ay ku soo ceshadaan ayaa la sii weydiiyay Dr. Galeyr, wuxuuna ku jawaabay “Annaga waxaan u dhabar adeegeynaa in si nabadgelyo ah arrimahaas ku dhammaadaan ku dhamaadaan, ciidamada Somaliland ee halkaas joogana ay meesha ka baxaan, iyadoo aanan la is-qasbeynin, iyadoo aan ognahay in ay jiraan waxyaabo badan oo aan wada leenahay taariikhiyan, haddana aan diyaar u nahay in wixii aan wada leenahay wada hadal lagu galo”.

Waxaa la weydiiyay Dr. Galeyr sida ay u arkayaan dadka ka soo jeeda gobollada Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn ee ka tirsan maamullada Somaliland iyo Puntland, wuxuuna sheegay in dadkaas ay u arkayaan sida uu maamulka Somaliland u arkayo dadka Hargeysa u dhashay ee ka tirsan Dowladda Soomaaliya ee fadhigeedu yahay.

“Cidda oraneysa afraad baan ku shireysa Taleex waa ka been sheegeysaa xaqiiqda, waayo halkan (Taleex) waxaa isugu yimid dhammaan dadka u dhashay dhulkan oo Isimadii, Cuqaashii, Culumaa’udiinkii, Siyaasiyiintii, Ganacsatadii, Haweenkii iyo cid walba ah, cidda caga jugleyneysana u suurtagelimeyso waxa ay dooneyso”ayuu Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr.

“Maamullada Somaliland iyo Puntland waa ay diidan yihiin maamulka laga filayo Shirka Khaatumo II, markaas waa tee cidda aad isku halleyneysaan ayay ahayd su’aal kale oo la weydiiyay Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr, “taageerada aan heysanno waa tan dadkeena, 100%  dadku meel ayay uga soo wada jeedaan, awooddeena baana ku tashaneynaa”ayuu yiri Dr. Galeyr.

Haddii colaad uu horseedo shirkan Taleex oo deegaanno nabad ah ay colaad ka dhacdo cidda mas’uuliyaddaas qaadeysa ayaa la weydiiyay Dr. Galeyr, wuxuuna sheegay in aysan jirin nabad taalla Sool, Sanaag iyo Cayn, “Ma Laascaanood baa nabadi taallaa, bandow baa ka jira, 5ta galabnimo ayaa la xiraa, Ardaydii baa la leynayaa, ma ogolin dhaqan-xumada lagu hayo Laascaanood, ma ogolin wixii ka dhacay Kalshaale iyo Hoodaale”ayuu hadalkiisa ku sii daray Dr. Cali Khaliif Galeyr oo sheegay in aysan weerar ku ahayn Burco, Berbera iyo Hargeysa.

Su’aal kale oo la weydiiyay Dr. Galeyr ayaa ahayd cidda ay Isbaheysi la sameysan doonaan haddii ay Somaliland iyo Puntland ay dhismaha maamulkooda diidan yihiin, “Shirweynaha Soomaaliyeed ayaan xiriir la sameysaneynaa, welina kama quusan shacbiga Somaliland iyo Puntland oo dano ayaan wada leenahay, maamulladana waan aragnaa. Maamulka Somaliland waxa uu diidan yahay oo aan u cuntameynin waxaa weeye annagu waxaan rabnaa midnimada Soomaaliyeed, haddii uu maamulka Somaliland leeyahay Annaga Soomaaliya kama mid noqoneyno  iyaga ayay u taallaa, waxaanse aragnay in Umadda dhulkan ku nool iyo Umadda Soomaaliyeedba guud ahaan in ay danta ku jirto in aan dalkan la kala gooyn, balse laga tashado sidii la isugu soo noqon lahaa iyo sidii wax loo qeybsan lahaa habkii ay doontaba ha noqotee”.

Title Research on the Variation of Nitrite Content of Toona Sinensis and the Technology to Reduce Nitrite Content
Abstract

Toona sinensis belongs to Meliaceae, Toona Roem. Its Latin name is Toona sinensis (A.Juss.) Roem. It is a plant species that grows particularly in China. Toona shoots contain numerous nutrients. According to the research of China Medical & Science Academy, every 100 g of toona contains 9.8 g of protein, which is the highest protein content among vegetables. Toona also bears significant value as food and medicine. Toona wood is a kind of precious limber。Recent research revealed that there is a significant amount of nitrite in toona. Nitrite is a chemical that can cause damage to human health. The intake of too much nitrite may cause dyspnea, circulatory failure and central lesion. It may be fatal in extreme cases.In the study, we chose red toona leaves obtained from Jinan toona base and market as the research object. The research is aimed at studying the distribution of nitrite in toona and developing efficient technology to decrease the nitrite content in toona so as to provide technique guidance and theological evidence for the manufacture of low nitrite toona products. It also offers scientific basis for the cultivation of toona plants to achieve the objective of improving the quality of toona products and guaranteeing customer health.By comparing the nitrite contents of toona leaves with different lengths, we discovered that 54.5% of the toona plants studied have long toona leaves with lower nitrite content compared with shorter leaves. Regarding the nitrite contents in toona leaves positioned at the top and the middle of the tree, there are differences among individuals.The toona samples are treated by methods of soaking in oxidizer or reductase solutions and hot water. Different solution concentrations and soaking durations have been set. The variation of nitrite content was determined by measuring the nitrite content before and after the toona samples were treated. The vitamin C content was measured simultaneously to determine the nutrient losses caused by the soaking treatment. The oxidizer or reductase solutions and hot water soaking treatments were conducted separately to determine the optimal concentrations and durations. The two methods were further combined using the concentrations and durations chosen and measurements of nitrite and vitamin C were conducted to determine the variations of nitrite and vitamin C contents. The result reveals that for the treatments only using oxygen or reductase, the solution chosen with optimal nitrite reducing effects are 13% sodium carbonate solution,2% glucose solution,0.5% Vitamin C solution and 0.03mol/L hydrogen peroxide. For the hot water treatments, the optimal time lengths are 5s and 30s when taking into consideration both the nitrite reduction and Vitamin C losses. For the treatments using combined methods, soaking in 2% sodium carbonate solutions for 5s and in 13% glucose solution for 5s have the optimal nitrite reducing effects.The toona samples which have been treated to decrease nitrite content were frozen and pickled separately. The measurement of nitrite content was conducted every 30 days to observe the fluctuation of nitrite content. The measurement of vitamin C content was conducted every 60 days to observe the fluctuation of nutrients. The results reveal that the nitrite and vitamin C content in frozen toona maintained at a relatively low level during the storage with slight fluctuation The nitrite and vitamin C content in pickled toona have seen a sharp decrease.The measurement of essential oil content in toona samples which have been treated to decrease nitrite content was conducted using GC analysis technology. The results reveal that the decrease of nitrite content in toona was followed by the decrease of essential oil content. The treated toona samples which have low nitrite content bear low essential oil content.The technology combined to decrease nitrite content efficiently decreases the nitrite content in toona samples. It provides technology support and theological evidence for the research and manufacturing of toona products with low nitrite content.

oil fish posing as cod

Recently, many people reflect: sliced ​​cod how so cheap?

Yesterday afternoon, an often buy cod farms on public call the newspaper, saying that cod in Yangzhou on the market as long as ten dollars per catty, people feel a little surprised.

Subsequently, the reporter has visited the Majestic farms, the farms of Four Seasons Park, the stone pagoda farms found to have frozen cod slices sale, but the price is very cheap, Four Seasons Park farms a street vendor at the catty slice cod 12 yuan. The stone pagoda farmers farms catty cod slice just $ 9.

farms in the Four Seasons Park, the one unwilling to disclose the names of the vendors told reporters many species of cod, in addition to the hundred dollars a pound of cod fish, more than ten dollars a pound of water cod and cod fish, the market price low Long cod, in fact, different scales, snake mackerel, oil fish a. How to Tell cod?

Feng

grandmother as usual to the autumn Road and Metro Rd intersection to buy food, a female street vendors to Feng grandmother strongly recommended Toon, Feng grandmother bought a pound in the hands of the female vendors toon. Feng grandmother told reporters that the price of a pound of Toona sinensis three vegetables, which is fairly expensive.

and yesterday noon, Feng grandmother toon chopped, 4 eggs together, ready to do a toon scrambled eggs. This toon after washing, I would not feel right, have bursts smell, look at the pot, it smells awful, can not eat. “Feng grandmother told reporters that a person would have been prepared to taste fresh and did not expect trouble stomach unpleasant.

“This is the price and toon, I did not expect but get hold of counterfeit goods to fool us.” Feng said the grandmother.

3 strokes to distinguish between true and false toon

The

To this end, the reporter consulted Yangzhou botanical expert Mr. Sun Ruzhu. Mr. Sun said that the toon is a good early spring vegetables, rich in nutritional value, the general output of Shandong region, very little growth in Yangzhou local. Sun told reporters such as bamboo, to identify the toon and tree of heaven, there are two important points. The first point is to see color, toon leaves a little red color, while the Ailanthus color of the leaves are green. The second point is to see the color of the bottom of the tender head stem, toon stem color is red, while the the Ailanthus tender head below the stem color is still green.

Sun

Ailanthus leaves on both sides of the tail and one each point of the oil glands, oil glands have two sesame seed size, appears to be bulging. It is reported that unscrupulous vendors not in sales when the oil glands burst, because when it is broken, there would be no odor comes out, but once people have bought the home, and vegetables of the two The oil glands burst, the smell will emit.

Sun, such as bamboo, the Ailanthus absolutely can not eat traditional Chinese medicine literature documented that Ailanthus “poison” for Jiantang Washing, ailanthus leaves inedible. “Members of the public in accordance with the above two points, the basic will be able to distinguish between toon and Ailanthus.”

如何鉴别真假芭蕉how to identify true and false banana

wonder: why did not taste this “banana”?

who lives Wan Hung urban gardens Ms. Wang told reporters last week that she purchased a mobile stalls in the vicinity of the Majestic farms bananas, bananas to buy a home the son refused to eat. “Said the child did not taste banana, did not mind the banana flavor, not only did not sweet, but also blinded.” Ms. Wang said that first she thought that banana is not yet fully cooked, that days like. “Then I put three or four days, eat, or that taste, did not mind the banana flavor.”

Ms. Wang

suspect that some unscrupulous businessmen replaced with plantain bananas, which leads to no banana flavor.

banana and plantain, can distinguish shapes

In this regard, such as bamboo Sun told reporters, plantains and bananas, the biggest difference is the shape of the banana is curved like a sickle; while the banana is fairly thick and the shape is straight. It is understood that the banana taste as good as banana, not only sweet, but the taste is very short, rough texture. Sun such as bamboo, banana prices are very cheap, nobody wanted in Guangzhou.
