Artikel: Coccoina "Björnklister" i aluminiumburk 125 gram Beskrivning:- 125 gram limpasta - Storlek på burk: Diameter 6 cm. 5,5 cm hög - Coccoina är orginalet och föregångaren till Björnklister. Med en trevlig mandeldoft som lockade många till att vilja äta av klistret (klistret bör dock ej förtäras). - Miljövänligt - Framställt utan lösningsmedel - Syrafritt (passar bra till scrapbooking, foto, kartong och papper) - Ofarligt/giftfritt klister som passar när barnen ska limma (även om klistret är ofarligt bör man inte förtära det) - Tillverkat av potatisstärkelse, glycerin, vatten och mandelessens - Stryk ut limmet med hjälp av medföljande pensel eller liknande - Limmet levereras i aluminiumburk med pensel - I mitten på burken inre finns utrymme (en tubformad håla) för att förvara penseln - Coccoina tillverkas i Italien och har funnit sedan 1920-talet http://www.lilon.se/coccoina-bjoernklister-aluminiumburk-limpasta-125-gram-p-3542.html http://www.coccoina.com/ |
Den zambiske økonomen (fra Harvard og Oxford) har skapt internasjonale bølger med boka ”Dead Aid” som slakter bistand. Boka har røsket godt opp i egoet til Ola Dunk og resten av den gavmilde verden. Moyo ber rike land som Norge slutte å gi penger, fordi det gjør vondt verre for verdens fattige. Moyo beskylder alle bistandsaktører for å være gamle menn, gjerne med skjegg. Møt henne i studio.
[Ed. 12/2002 -This is an extremely strange report: Chocolate has anti-oxidents also as probably most plant material could have. Chocolate might be an even better and cleaner heating fuel, but do sane people want to use it? This report focuses on anti-oxidents but seem not to take into account the deadly fine particulate and gases that are emmitted from all wood burning. Ms Kjallstrand seems in favor of wood as a cooking fuel and heating fuel. We presume Ms. Kjallstrand has measured this new technology in the field? She has extracted her magic protective bullets with syringes, they are not human lungs subject to the scaring and severe inflammation that wood smoke does elicit. How much benzene or dioxin is a 'safe' amount. Excuse me, we could have to have the body do the math. Poison + poison + carcinogens + fine particulate + current age + current health - all those antioxidents! Voila - wood smoke is wonderful again. This paper has been seized upon by even government scientists who love wood smoke.]

Ten prominent dimethoxyphenols were determined in birchwood smoke from choked
and open laboratory burning and in chimney smoke from a tiled stove. The
structures of the methoxyphenols are similar to those of the well-known
tocopherol and ubiquinol antioxidants. The 2,6-dimethoxyphenols characterising
hardwood smoke are stronger antioxidants than the corresponding 2-methoxyphenols
present mainly in softwood smoke. The antioxidant activity is highest for the
2,6-dimethoxyphenols with 4-alkenyl and 4-alkyl groups, which constitute 60-70%
of the total amount of dimethoxyphenols. Phenolic antioxidants are scavengers of
oxygen radicals and should be considered when health hazards of small-scale
incomplete biomass burning are estimated.

Smoke from residential wood burning constitutes a complex mixture of organic compounds with varying environmental and health effects. This thesis focuses on antioxidants and aromatic hydrocarbons emitted from small-scale burning. Smoke samples were collected from laboratory experiments and in chimney outlets from stoves, using gas-tight syringes or adsorbent cartridges. Specific components were assessed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry.
Primary thermal decomposition products from cellulose and lignin constituted a large part of the organic fraction from incomplete combustion of wood. The lignin-related methoxyphenols are, due to their varying chemical structures, more or less effective antioxidants. Smoke from hardwood burning contained the more efficient 2,6-dimethoxyphenols, whereas softwood smoke almost only contained 2-methoxyphenols. An alkenyl or alkyl side-chain renders the antioxidant stronger, while a carbonyl group reduces the effect. The presence of phenolic antioxidants should be considered when the health hazards of wood smoke are estimated. Antioxidative 2,6-dimethoxyphenols were the predominant aromatic compounds in smoke from birchwood burning as well as from low-temperature pyrolysis of alder chips, used for meat curing. They improve both the taste and the quality of the foods. [ ?Ed. I have lost my 'taste' for smoked foods I feel like I am becoming smoked meat myself]. Incomplete combustion of newsprint released coniferyl alcohol as the major methoxyphenol. Newsprint is often used to set wood on fire.
Methoxyphenols as well as 1,6-anhydroglucose from cellulose were released at inefficient burning. These compounds appear mainly condensed on particles at ambient temperatures. On more efficient burning, the total amount of organic compounds decreased in the smoke. However, the proportion of the hazardous polycyclic aromatic compounds increased. The carcinogenic benzene was assessed as a prominent aromatic compound in smoke from all studied types of biomass burning, although the ratio to other organic compounds increased with the combustion temperature.
A comparison was made between smoke from a tiled stove and a conventional wood boiler. Stove burning released methoxyphenols and 1,6-anhydroglucose, while the boiler emitted large proportions of benzene and polycyclic aromatic compounds. Oxidative pyrolysis of wood pellets released methoxyphenol antioxidants from the flaming combustion phase. Benzene was the predominant aromatic compound from glowing pellets. New available technology for residential wood burning, including wood pellets and eco-labelled boilers, drastically decreases the emissions of antioxidants as well as hazardous aromatic hydrocarbons through highly efficient combustion.

Den britiske gruppen Roxy Music eksploderte på musikkscenen i 1972 med sin kombinasjon av ulike musikalske påvirkninger sammen med sangeren Bryan Ferrys forkjærlighet for film, kunst og mote.
Men allerede året etter da album nummer to, «For Your Pleasure» ble utgitt, valgte sentralmedlemmet Brian Eno å forlate gruppen.
Men historien var langt fra slutt.
Vi følger historien om Roxy Music som til tross for solokarrierer og oppløsning av bandet flere ganger har blitt gjenforent.
Se «Roxy Music for your pleasure» på NRK1 kl. 23.55.
Hubris (/hjuːbrɪs/) (ancient Greek ὕβρις) is a term used in modern English to indicate overweening pride, superciliousness, or arrogance, often resulting in fatal retribution or nemesis. In ancient Greece, hubris referred to actions which, intentionally or not, shamed and humiliated the victim, and frequently the perpetrator as well. It was most evident in the public and private actions of the powerful and rich. The word was also used to describe actions of those who challenged the gods or their laws, especially in Greek tragedy, resulting in the protagonist's downfall.
Hubris, though not specifically defined, was a legal term and was considered a crime in classical Athens. It was also considered the greatest sin of the ancient Greek world. That was so because it was not only proof of excessive pride, but also resulted in violent acts by or to those involved. The category of acts constituting hubris for the ancient Greeks apparently broadened from the original specific reference to mutilation of a corpse, or a humiliation of a defeated foe, or irreverent "outrageous treatment" in general.
The meaning was eventually further generalized in its modern English usage to apply to any outrageous act or exhibition of pride or disregard for basic moral laws. Such an act may be referred to as an "act of hubris", or the person committing the act may be said to be hubristic. Ate|Atë, ancient Greek for "ruin, folly, delusion," is the action performed by the hero, usually because of his/her hubris, or great pride, that leads to his/her death or downfall.
