I love baked cheesecake. This summer on my trip around the us I went to The cheesecake factory and tried out some of their cheesecakes. ( I tried quite a few actually, I am a little embarrassed to say) My god what a selection and the portion size is ridiculous. My favorites were key lime cheesecake and chocolate chip cookie dough cheesecake.

Using the Earth's underground temperature to produce heat or electricity: that is the principle behind geothermal energy. Less well known than solar and wind energy, it is nevertheless the third most widely used renewable energy in France. This is how it works.
What is the current status of geothermal energy?
The word geothermal comes from the Greek gê (meaning earth) and thermos (meaning hot). Geothermal technology is based on techniques making it possible to recover the heat naturally present underground and in groundwater (aquifers) and use it as a source of energy. This heat comes either from the phenomena responsible for the formation of the planet, billions of years ago, or is the result of natural radioactivity.
The temperature of the underground environment varies depending on the location as well as the depth: the closer to the Earth's core we go, the higher the temperature is.
This increase in temperature as a function of depth is known as the thermal gradient. Its average value on a global scale is +3°C every 100 m.
But it can be as high as + 10°C / 100 m in volcanic regions, where magma is trapped beneath the earth's crust.
Depending on the temperature of the underground environment, techniques for recovering and using the heat vary. A distinction is generally made between two types of geothermal energy.
This is the easiest to access, in particular for private individuals, since it simply requires a heat pump. It is generally used as a supplementary energy source to supply heating for buildings.
Ultra-low-temperature geothermal energy (<30°C): this refers to heat taken from the ground or underground water at depths of less than 200 m. The temperature is quite low, but it is high enough to allow heat to be recovered for heating and air conditioning purposes.
Low-temperature geothermal energy (from 30 to 90°C): fields are located in deep aquifers at depths ranging from a few hundred meters to 2,500 m. The temperature, while being too low to produce electricity, is high enough to generate heat by direct thermal exchange. This solution is reserved for large-sized buildings.
The low-energy solutions are generally used to heat buildings.
The higher temperatures make it possible to recover more energy and produce electricity.
High-temperature geothermal energy (from 90 to 150°C): at this temperature, heat is captured in the form of steam or hot water as at the Bouillante power plant in Guadeloupe. Reservoirs are either targeted zones at depths of under 1,000 m, or sedimentary basins at depths of between 2,000 and 4,000 m. Electricity production requires a heat-carrying fluid: geothermal water transfers its heat to another liquid, which vaporizes at low temperature and activates a turbine producing electricity.
Ultra-high-temperature geothermal energy (>150°C): this is associated with fractured reservoirs, i.e., underground zones presenting natural faults, such as that exploited in the Rittershoffen power plant, in Alsace, north-east France. Drilling operations are conducted (generally at depths of more than 1,500 m) to circulate the water present in these fractures and bring it to the surface, taking advantage of the permeability and natural flows present in the fault network. It is also possible to inject water under pressure to create steam. Once at the surface, geothermal water is converted to heat or electricity, via a plant operating with an Organic Rankine Cycle (process to produce electricity from heat using an organic fluid).
it is renewable… provided reasonable operating conditions are respected, of course.
As with any energy sources exploiting natural resources, geothermal energy depends on local conditions, in this case, the geology of the underground environment. Volcanic zones are therefore the most suitable for high-energy geothermal solutions.
The heat generated from geothermal energy must be used locally, since transport over long distances generates thermal losses. This problem does not arise for electricity, which is transported via power lines.
It requires significant start-up investment (drilling, heat pump, etc.), which is then offset by a highly competitive price per kilowatt hour.
Lastly, reservoirs may become depleted as they are exploited if groundwater is not given the time to reheat by circulating in the underground environment. It is therefore essential to cap the quantities of heat taken and limit the exploitation of reservoirs over time.
Currently, 90 countries around the world use geothermal energy and in some of these countries it accounts for more than 20% of their national production. In France, geothermal energy is the 3rd most widely used renewable energy, behind biomass and hydroelectricity.
Geothermal resources present across mainland France and its overseas territories and regions are extremely rich, but as yet little developed. Thus, only 10% of new homes are equipped with heat pumps (compared with 35% in Switzerland and 90% in Sweden). France's first geothermal power plant is located in Guadeloupe. A second one, in Alsace, is at the experimental stage.

I have been taking lisinopril for almost three years. Recently, I have moved to a new state and I need to see a new doctor to prescribe me the medicine again. My previous doctor was a cardiologist. I wanted to see if I need to visit a cardiologist again or a general doctor can prescribe me the med?
You should be able to have it filled by a general Dr. Most of my heart medication are filled this way. Maybe some states are different. Hope this helped.
Lisinopril is an antihypertensive medication that works through the kidneys and its hormones. It's a well known, common medication that is prescribed by medical professionals who are licensed to prescribe medications. Will you have the chance to discuss it with your new doctor and get the doctor's explanation of how Lisinopril will be of benefit to you?
I've been taking Lisinopril (generic) for 9 years. Recently my pharmacy filled my prescription with a new generic, and 5 days later I had a really bad rash around my waist and on my left shoulder and left leg. I stopped taking the new generic and the rash went away. I'm wondering if this was a coindesidentce.
Has anyone else had a reaction to Lisinopril like this?
Recently had what they think is Lisinopril allergy. In ER with angioedema. Took Lisinopril for over 10 years. Trying to taper from steroids now. Any advise for me? Anyone been through this? Diabetic so blood sugar and blood pressure elevated. How long before I will feel normal again? Thanks.
You may notice that I moved your discussion and combined it with this existing discussion on Lisinopril. I did this as I thought it would be beneficial for you to meet a few other members talking about this medication.
There's a lot of loose talk about ACE Inhibitors causing angioedema. I got interested in this side of the issue after 10 years of Lisinopril medication without incident. I have several acquaintances who have been similarly free of angioedema consequences of ACE inhibitors.
Some people read only the first sentence and see "leading cause of drug induced angioedema." But that consequence is rare, and the "leading cause of angioedema" amounts to no more than 0,5% of patients taking Lisinopril or another ACE inhibitor. That's one-half of one percent or one in 200 cases and may be as low as one in 1,000 cases (0.1% of cases).
When I started on Lisinopril, my nephrologist noted that I had swollen ankles and told me this condition probably was attributable to another medication — a calcium-channel blocker. Shortly, she took me off that medication, and the edema in my ankles disappeared, although I have been on Lisinopril ever since. I am not one of the rare cases of angioedema caused by an ACE inhibitor. Perhaps you are. I hope you get the right answer soon and get the problem behind you.

Dark Rides and Grim Visions
March 8, 2016 Eric Voxcaster
I'm the worst person to be attempting a review for New Planet Trampoline's new release Dark Rides and Grim Visions. 1) It's taken me weeks to write this. Poor Mara at Blown Speakers has asked me for it at least half a dozen times. Each time I get ready to send it, I read what I wrote, and immediately start over. Now Blown Speakers won't get the scoop on this album. Hell, even Scene beat us to it. 2) I've been drinking the kool-aid on these guys for a long time. My fandom began indirectly sometime in 2003 or 2004. Any preconceptions of impartiality should be immediately forgotten. I'm sure this review will eventually contain a few witty phrases and unique adjective combinations, but first it's story time kids…
Cleveland's music scene full on tongued my ears in my mid-20s. An old friend of mine started playing with a band called the Dreadful Yawns. I fell in love with them, to say the least. Booking tours and signing record contracts eventually led to playing and touring with them. All along the way New Planet was right there. 4 of the 5 members of New Planet were the original Yawns line up. My appreciation of the Yawns always came with the headaches of logistics, van breakdowns, and touring. NPT, however, was like a favorite nephew. I could enjoy spending time with them as much as I wanted, without having to fight about artwork or budgets.
New Planet Trampoline released The Curse of The New Planet Trampoline back in 2004. At the time, I couldn't believe that anyone I knew could have written and recorded such an adventure by themselves in a moldy basement in Lakewood. It was an incredible blend of Farfisa, harmonies, searing guitars, and tripped out bass lines. Totally different than the quiet twinkle of Yawns. New Planet's The Blimps and Aeroplanes EP came out a year later and I was so certain that these guys were about to graduate to cocaine, hookers, and A&R guys. I had grand visions of New Planet getting signed, getting a booking agent, and dragging the Yawns on the road with them. You know, tour the world. Seriously. Completely engrossing, vivid daydreams…
It wasn't to be…
Shortly before NPT broke up, they played live on a radio show I hosted. For nearly a decade those would be the only recordings I had of the "new" material they were working on at the time. NPT came back from a short tour and announced they were playing their final show. I was devastated. It seemed certain that recordings of songs like The Nearly Finished Face, Haunted as Fuck, Birds and others would only exist on a drug addled, half-assed produced, college radio show.
Thankfully, that wasn't to be…
That's why Grim Visions is such a mind fuck for me. Almost half of the album consists of these incredible songs from a band I thought was in their prime 10 years ago on a college radio show. The other half of the album proves that I was wrong. They are only starting to hit their prime. Matt Cassidy's guitar is just as ear shatteringly loud on record as it is live. Ben Gmetro's Farfisa is punchy, melodic, whimsical, and haunting. Charlie Druesedow's drumming is so spot on I don't even remember what drummer joke I was gonna make, and that is some divine shit. Dave Molnar's bass playing is as good a reason as any to put down your bass and become an accountant, because you'll never be able to write bass lines like that.
I hesitate to say that NPT picks up right where they left off. Sure, a lot of these tunes made up their live set when the called it quits, but they sound better after marinading for a decade. The songs sound more confident, the performances more otherworldly, every aspect is amplified. The album is haunting, creepy even, if not for the sudden bursts of pop goodness that makes it feel like classic psychedelia, without the Freedom Rock tropes. Dark Rides and Grim Visions is a psychedelic swirling wave of crafted pop, thick harmonies, killer bass lines, and floating Farfisa. It's disorienting and reassuring. It's 420, brah.
Simply put, the album is a gleeful ride on a carnival train. The only thing more mind blowing is how NPT pulls it off live. There are few bands better live than NPT… maybe, just maybe, Brian Jonestown Massacre circa 1996… regardless, it's a very short list.
Check them out at the Happy Dog West on 3/12. They are playing with nice person/face melting super group Hiram-Maxim and Detroit's Sisters of Your Sunshine Vapour.
It's $5 at the door, but bring a few extra bucks. You'll need it for NPT's Dark Rides and Grim Visions.
