Cubing Potatoes Before Boiling Can Reduce Mineral Content By 75%

The preparation of a potato can have a big impact on its mineral content, Agricultural Research Service scientists report in a new study of this popular vegetable. Baked, roasted, boiled or fried, the potato is America's favorite vegetable. Every year, the average American eats about 130 pounds of potatoes, which are loaded with vitamins and minerals.

	When chemists want to produce a lot of a substance -- such as a newly designed drug -- they often turn to catalysts, molecules that speed chemical reactions. Many jobs require highly specialized catalysts, and finding one in just the right shape to connect with certain molecules can be difficult. Natural catalysts, such as enzymes in the human body that help us digest food, get around this problem by shape-shifting to suit the task at hand.

	Carbon offsets increasingly are becoming a major component in the arsenal for reducing global warming. Even Bon Jovi, the Rolling Stones and the Dave Matthews Band are doing it: acquiring carbon offsets to reduce the carbon footprint of their tours. As more organizations and businesses start trading in carbon offsets, the need for accurate measurements of carbon emissions also is becoming critically important for fair and exact exchanges.

•	where to get helium
	me and my friend are making a very large blimp and were wondering what we should do for gas going to a store to get it filled up is out of the question simply because it will be much too large. not only that we still need to do things like balance it and test its flight out and everything. we're using garbage bags as the membrane and trying to keep it as simple as possible to avoid small leaks but they cant be stopped without adding a lot of tape. so i was wondering a few things helium or hydrogen hydrogen would be a lot cheaper and would end up having a lot more lift which we need all the lift we can get because we live at 6500 ft but its also explosive, and hard to find. i have no idea where i would find hydrogen and whether or not most companies would even sell to an individual. helium is very stable but has the worse part of the items mentioned before cost and lift. although it is way easier to get helium apparently you can go to almost any party store and just pick a tank up for like $20 would another gas be suitable? any help would be greatly appreciated in fact if you do contribute significant help we would be willing to put a "sponsored by" on the side of the blimp
