Marshmallow fondant is made by combining melted shelf-stable marshmallows, water, powered sugar, and solid vegetable shortening. Home bakers use this recipe for homemade fondant due to the readily available access to required ingredients. "Sculpting fondant"

"Sugar paste" or "gum paste" is similar to rolled fondant, but hardens completely—and therefore is used for bigger cake decorations, such as bride and groom figures, bigger flowers, etc. Sugar paste is made mainly of egg whites and powdered sugar. Poured fondant is formed by supersaturating water with sucrose. More than twice as much sugar dissolves in water at the boiling point as at room temperature. After the sucrose dissolves, if the solution is left to cool undisturbed, the sugar remains dissolved in

title: "RC 4000 multiprogramming system" content: RC 4000 multiprogramming system The RC 4000 Multiprogramming System is a discontinued operating system developed for the RC 4000 minicomputer in 1969. It is historically notable for being the first attempt to break down an operating system into a group of interacting programs communicating via a message passing kernel. Although RC 4000 itself was not very successful it was nevertheless extremely influential, sparking the microkernel concept that dominated operating system research through the 1970s and 1980s. The system is also known as Monitor and, somewhat confusingly, simply RC 4000 depending on the reference. For clarity, this article will use the

That year, he released the live "Space Age Freak Out", followed by another live album, "Performance", in 2000. Glide began to tour, and would often open for Echo & the Bunnymen in the early 2000s. Glide released "Curvature of the Earth" in 2004. Sergeant


title: "Cisco Catalyst" content: was developed separately from Cisco's router technology. The Catalyst switches originally ran software called CatOS rather than the more widely known Cisco IOS software used by routers. However, this has changed as the product lines have merged closer together. In some cases, particularly in the modular chassis switches, a configuration called 'Hybrid' has emerged - this is where the layer 2 functions are configured using CatOS, and the layer 3 elements are configured using IOS. "Native IOS" can also be found with newer software versions that have eliminated CatOS entirely in favor of IOS, even on hardware that originally required


title: "Cisco Catalyst" content: CatOS. Some newer Catalyst switch models (with recent versions of the Cisco IOS) also allow web-based management using a graphical interface (GUI) module which is hosted on a HTTP server located on the switch. The Catalyst 3750-series of switches is an example of a Cisco Catalyst switch that allows this style of GUI via HTTP. CatOS (Catalyst Operating System) is the discontinued operating system for many of the Catalyst brand of legacy network switches. CatOS ran on switches such as 1200, 2948G, 4000, 4500, 5000, 5500, 6000, 6500 series. It was originally called "XDI" by the switching company Crescendo Communications,

In hybrid mode, the NMP (switch processor) runs CatOS and the route processor runs Cisco IOS. As Catalyst devices are primarily Ethernet switches, all modern Catalyst models have Ethernet interfaces ranging from 10 Mbit/s to 100 Gbit/s depending on the model. Other models can support T1, E1, and ISDN PRI interfaces to provide connections to the PSTN. Legacy models supported a variety of interfaces, such as token ring, FDDI, Asynchronous Transfer Mode and 100BaseVG, but


title: "Cisco Catalyst" content: are no longer sold by Cisco Systems. All models have basic layer 2 functions and are capable of switching Ethernet frames between ports. Commonly found additional features are VLANs, trunking and QoS. The switches, whether IOS or CatOS, are fully manageable. Many Catalyst switches that run IOS are also capable of functioning as a router, making them layer 3 devices; when coupled with TCP and UDP filtering, these switches are capable of layer 2-4 operation. Depending on the exact software image, a Catalyst that runs IOS may be able to tackle large-scale enterprise routing tasks, using router technologies like OSPF

Cells migrating through this path differentiate into pigment cells of the dermis. Further neural crest cell differentiation and specification into their final cell type is biased by their spatiotemporal subjection to morphogenic cues such as BMP, Wnt, FGF, Hox, and Notch. Neural crest cells originating from different positions along the anterior-posterior axis develop into various tissues. These regions of neural crest can be divided into four main functional domains, which include the cranial neural crest, trunk neural crest, vagal and sacral neural crest, and cardiac neural crest.

The music of the congas has become a genre itself, being introduced into Cuban popular music in the early 20th century by artists such as Eliseo Grenet and Armando Oréfiche and his Havana Cuban Boys. They have been present for decades in the repertoire of many conjuntos, Cuban big bands and descarga ensembles, also having an influence on modern genres such as salsa and songo. The conga drum, also known in Cuba as tumbadora, took its name from the "congas de comparsa". The history of the conga (also known as comparsa conga or conga de comparsa) is obscure and

However, the word "conga" may also derive from either "maconga" (song) or "nkunga" (song, sound) in "the language of the Congo" (Ortiz 1924:118). Ortiz (II 1952-5:34) also states that the drum called bokú (one of the instruments of the conga) is "...typical of the congos." Goodman mentions the “"comparsa conga"” in conjunction with a "carnaval" figure known as “"el Rey del Congo"” (the "King of the Congo”), which seems to confirm a "kongo" ethnic connection to the "conga" (Pérez I 1988:104). Also, the word "bokú" means “drum” in Kikongo

The use of a water bottle allows an individual to drink and transport a beverage from one place to another. A water bottle is usually made of plastic, glass, or metal. Water bottles are available in different shapes, colors, and sizes. In the past, water bottles were sometimes made of wood, bark, or animal skins such as leather and sheepskin. Water bottles can be either disposable or reusable. Reusable water bottles can also be used for liquids such as juice,

Easily portable, water bottles make for convenient use, while typically containing nutrition facts. Water bottle sales have increased almost every decade in the United States for more than a decade. In 2011, greater than $11 billion was spent on U.S. bottled water products. The International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) states that Americans are increasingly relying on water bottles for convenience and portability. Multi-use water bottles can be made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), copolyester or polypropylene. All offer the


title: "Water bottle" content: advantage of being durable, lightweight, dishwasher-safe and BPA-free. The main difference between each type of water bottle is the flexibility of the material. Copolyester and polypropylene bottles offer the greatest rigidity. HDPE bottles retain some flexibility, while LDPE bottles (most commonly associated with 'squeeze' type bottles) are highly flexible and collapsible. Metal water bottles are growing in popularity. Made primarily from stainless steel or aluminum, they are durable and retain minimal odor or taste from previous contents. Aluminum bottles often contain a plastic resin or epoxy liner to protect contents from taste and odor transfer. Although most liners are now


title: "Water bottle" content: BPA-free, older and less expensive models can contain BPA. It is not recommended to fill aluminum bottles with acidic liquids (e.g. orange juice), as this could cause aluminum to leach into the contents of the bottle. Stainless steel bottles do not contain a liner but have been known to transfer a metallic taste and odor to contents. Bottles made with food grade stainless steel (Grade 304, also known as 18/8) do not transfer taste or odor. Depending on the type of source material and manufacturing process behind your stainless steel bottle, trace amounts of minerals can leach into contents. Metal


title: "Water bottle" content: water bottles can be heavier than their plastic counterparts and readily transfer temperature of contents to external surfaces, which makes them unsuitable for use with unusually hot or cold liquids. Double-walled stainless steel bottles are insulated to keep cold liquids cold and hot liquids hot, without the external surface being too hot or too cold. Because double-walled bottles have more stainless steel in them, they are more expensive. Because they are completely recyclable, BPA free and transfer minimal taste or odor, glass water bottles are becoming a popular choice for many consumers worried about their health. Heavier than plastic, stainless

This is the reason CAT can be generated above the tropopause, despite the stratosphere otherwise being a region which is vertically stable. On the other hand, vertical wind shear moving downwards within the stratosphere is more moderate (i.e., because downwards wind shear within the stratosphere is effectively moving against the manner in which wind speed changes within the stratosphere) and CAT is never produced in the stratosphere. Similar considerations apply to the troposphere but in reverse. When strong wind deviates, the

title: Charge!! content: Charge!! Charge!! is the fourth studio album by American comedy rock band The Aquabats, released on June 7, 2005 by Nitro Records. Following a nearly six year semi-hiatus which resulted in numerous line-up changes, "Charge!!" was The Aquabats' first studio album to showcase the band's radical shift in sound, featuring a reduced five-member line-up and a reinvented musical style of new wave-influenced rock and punk music. Released to largely positive reviews and several successful international tours, "Charge!!" effectively revitalized The Aquabats' then-stalling career into the new century. Following their dismissal from Goldenvoice Records in 2000, The Aquabats entered a lengthy

In 2004, The Aquabats independently released the EP "Yo! Check Out This Ride!" in an attempt to generate label interest, successfully signing to Nitro Records later in the year and commencing work on a new studio album in the fall. Despite this fortuitous turn of events, the band were still uncertain of their future following their semi-hiatus and radical shift in line-up. Singer


title: Charge!! content: Christian Jacobs (The MC Bat Commander) later commented that the band thought "Charge!" would possibly be their final album together. While the lyricism of "Charge!!" continues in the typical Aquabats tradition of comedic self-referential narratives and pop culture and geek culture-oriented satire, the music introduced a bold new sound for the band, featuring a predominant focus on guitar and keyboard-driven rock, punk and Devo-influenced new wave rather than the ska-driven eclecticism of their earlier albums. Notably, "Charge!!" was the first Aquabats studio album not to feature brass instruments, indeed one of the most remarked upon aspects of the album by


title: Charge!! content: reviewers; in a 2006 interview, Jacobs stated that the band attempted to write a saxophone solo into one of the album's songs but ultimately felt it sounded too out of place. "Charge!" would be the final Aquabats album to feature longtime guitarist Corey Pollock (Chainsaw) as an official member, as he would eventually leave the band in 2006 as a result of their increased touring activity interfering with his day job. However, until "The Aquabats! Super Show!" solidified The Aquabats' image as a five-piece unit in 2012, Pollock continued to perform with the band as a second guitarist at their

After months of online hype, The Aquabats officially announced "Charge!!" on their website on April 1, 2005, unveiling the album's title, artwork, track listing, release date and corresponding tour, all of which had been kept secret until then.

Copies of the album were packaged with Aquabats trading cards featuring pictures of the band and song lyrics.
