Do you ever get burnt?

Flaming Fun FAQ's
Yes, this tends to happen when playing with fire! (Remember you play with fire you get burnt!) Although at this stage only minor burns (to us!!!) from time to time, it’s like a visit from a distant relative... a little bit annoying! Don’t try this alone or without any guidance or training.

The early Maori burnt large areas of forest - why is the European burn worse?

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
This map shows how New Zealand forests disappeared in the course of history. First look at the light-grey areas. They are the natural barrens of New Zealand, consisting of ice, rock, dry grassland or low shrub. The olive coloured areas are those laid barren by the early Maori in their hunt for moas and while practising shifting agriculture. Most of this consisted of dry scrub land which burnt easily.

You got it, it's a big fat NO. Sure, it'll kill the mange and your dog too. Please know that application of burnt motor oil is toxic and can harm or kill your pet.

Why should I have my images burnt to DVD?

Negative, Film and Slide Scanning - frequently asked questio...
If you choose to have your originals scanned at higher resolution, it makes sense to have your images burnt onto DVD, rather than having several CDs. Our CDs hold 650Mb, while our DVDs hold 4.6Gb. Also some DVD players will recognise the content as being images and will display them in a slideshow format on your TV.

Can you estimate the burnt surface area?

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Pixel saturation is considered to occur at ~ 50?C. However, you only need 0.1% of the pixel area covered by temperatures ranging between 250?C and 500?C to saturate the pixel. If the hot spot?s temperature is higher than 500?C, even an area of only 0.01% of the pixel, will saturate it. Roughly calculated, hot spots ranging from 120 m2 to 1,200000 m2 will be detected. Thus, you cannot determine the number of fires or the size of the surface area affected.

The redness associated with sunburns can take up to 24 hours to show. If you are outside and your skin begins to turn red, get out of the sun. You may already have a sunburn. Products such as Banana Boat® UltraMist™ Aloe Aftersun Gel can help soothe sunburned skin and help minimize peeling.

How can I remove burnt-on foods and grease on pots?

Stainless Steel
First, try soaking the pot in hot water with dishwashing detergent. If this does not work, try adding water to the pot and bring it to a boil. Sometimes this will break up the food deposit. If all else fails, use a mild abrasive scouring powder or non-metallic or stainless steel scouring pad to remove stubborn deposits. These may scratch the surface. If there are obvious polishing lines rub in the same direction as the lines to minimize surface finish damage.

I have burnt a DVD. The music is no longer in sync with the images. Why?

Boinx FotoMagico - FAQs
A live presentation has to make sure of prerequisites which aren't necessary when exporting to DVD. In brief and without getting too technical, in a live scenario we'll have to make sure the image has been loaded entirely and is ready for display on screen or beamer. So we may have to "wait" until that is done. Consequently, there may be tiny delays, which you didn't even recognize. Those tiny delays, however, come into play when exporting to DVD.

Why does my skin sometimes have a "burnt skin" smell after tanning?

Sun Splash Tans - Hawaii's Premier Indoor Tanning Salon
The smell is NOT burnt skin at all. This "after tan" odor that some get is caused by a friendly bacteria that lives on the surface of the skin. The smell is a result of the bacteria getting hot on the skin. Most of the indoor tanning lotions we carry include both antibacterial ingredients to eliminate the odor and fragrances to minimize the after-tan odor.

What hidden applications are burnt into the CD-i player's system ROM?

The New International CD-i Association
Most CD-i players have additional programs and other modules stored in ROM that you can check out using a terminal connection. If a Digital Video cartridge is installed, which contains its own ROM, even more modules will be available. One of the things I discovered using some of the early CD-i players based on the Mini-MMC board (CDI 910, CDI 205 and CDI 220/00) is that a service maintenance tool is available in ROM.

What is the best way to clean Le Creuset, especially when food is burnt onto the piece?

LeCreuset
Once you have removed the food from your pan fill with hot water and a squeeze of detergent. This makes it very easy to wash later.

We do not recommend powder cleansers or metal scourers, as these are very harsh and will scratch the surface.
