Saw this story and I just knew we had some that would be really interested in it. Barley genome breakthrough may lead to better beer LONDON (Reuters) - An international consortium of scientists has published a high resolution draft of the barley genome in a move that could not only improve yields and disease resistance but may also hold the key to better beer. "This research will streamline efforts to improve barley production through breeding for improved varieties," said Professor Robbie Waugh, of Scotland's James Hutton Institute, who led the research. "This could be varieties better able to withstand pests and disease, deal with adverse environmental conditions, or even provide grain better suited for beer and brewing." Barley which has been malted is a key ingredient in brewing beer along with hops and yeast. The research, published in the journal Nature, could also be a boon for the whisky industry while barley is also a major component of animal feed for meat and dairy industries. Barley is the world's fourth most important cereal crop, trailing only maize, rice and wheat, and its genome is almost twice the size of that of humans. "It will accelerate research in barley, and its close relative, wheat," Waugh said. "Armed with this information breeders and scientists will be much better placed to deal with the challenge of effectively addressing the food security agenda under the constraints of a rapidly changing environment."

just bought a 07 RSV and am wondering about rpms at highway speeds. Seems to lug along in 5th at 60 and barley smooths out at 65. Should I still be in 4th at 60?

When the bike is not running lauri and i can talk fine to each other, but when I start the bike lauri barley hear me and i can barley hear her along with alot of noise coming thought the headset its almost like hearing the coils on the bike talking thought the headset. I thought it was just my new headset and i try two diffrent ones with the same results. is there a filter to put somewhere to block that? Also i havent tuned it and not to sure how to do that i have a SWR meter a old one but should work fine. i been surffing the web would one of these power filters work http://www.premiere-electronics.net/store/powercords.html
