L'Oficina Municipal d'Informació al Consumidor (OMIC) de l'Ajuntament de Sitges i 'àrea de Polítiques de Consum de la Diputació de Barcelona han organitzat sis tallers sobre al·lèrgens i intoleràncies adreçats als alumnes del cicles formatius de Pastisseria, Dietètica, Cuina i Restauració de l'institut Joan Ramon Benaprés. Així, els tallers van repassar amb informació pràctica els 14 grups d'aliments amb informaicó obligatòria, la necessitat de llegir les etiquetes dels processats, o els riscos de la contaminació creuada. Els alumnes van valorar molt positivament l'experiència, essencial per a la seva formació professional.

ABOUT JACKÉE HARRY Vivacious, witty, and completely unforgettable, Jackée Harry was born to entertain.Born Jacqueline Yvonne Harry on August 14, 1956 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and reared from the age of nine in Harlem, New York, by her mother, Flossie, Jackée landed the lead role of the King in her school's production of The King and I at the tender age of fourteen. Upon graduation from New York City's High School of Music and Art with a distinction in Opera, Jackée attended the University of Long Island, where she earned her B.A. in education. Jackée began her career as a history teacher at Brooklyn Technical High School but left after two years to pursue acting. She studied at the Henry Street Settlement on the Lower East Side and made her professional acting debut in 1973 in Richard Wesley's Goin' Through Changes; not long afterward, she made her Broadway debut in A Broadway Musical as Melinda Bernard. Other Broadway performances include The Wiz, Eubie!, and One Mo' Time. In 1983, Jackée made her first television appearance opposite Morgan Freeman in the daytime soap operaAnother World. A year later, she landed her iconic role of Sandra Clark on the NBC sitcom 227. As the breakout star of the series, Jackée became the first African American to win an Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series and was also nominated for a Golden Globe. Her performance on227 inspired NBC producers to create a television pilot for her entitled Jackée. After departing from 227 in 1989, she starred opposite Oprah Winfrey in the critically acclaimed adaptation of Gloria Naylor's novelThe Women of Brewster Place. In 1991, Jackée joined an all-star cast led by Della Reese when she played the role of Ruth 'CoCo' Royal in The Royal Family. From 1994-1999, she starred as the adoptive mother of Tia and Tamara Mowry's characters on the ABC/WB sitcom Sister, Sister, winning the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for two consecutive years in 1999 and 2000. Jackée also made guest appearances onAmen, Designing Women, Dave's World, Hollywood Squares, 7th Heaven, and That's So Raven, before joining the cast of Everybody Hates Chris in 2006. Hollywood success did not lead Jackée to turn her back on theater; in 1994 she returned to the stage as Billie Holiday in Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill followed by stints in For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide and The Vagina Monologues. In 2003 she played the role of the Madam in The Boys From Syracuse on Broadway. Jackée also performed before sold-out audiences across the nation in the stage play The Cleanup Woman, which is called "one of the highest grossing gospel stage plays of all time" and fronted an Off-Broadway limited-run of NEWSical: The Musical.Beyond acting, Jackée is a vocal champion of healthy living, education, and philanthropy. She is proud to be a spokesperson for the Thurgood Marshall Scholarship Fund, and a Global Ambassador to the Women's International Center. The National Congress of Black Women presented her with the "Woman of Substance" Award in 2010.In addition to recurring roles on Let's Stay Together, Baby Daddy, Girl Meets World, and The Cool Kids, Jackée starred on the CW's The First Family and OWN'sThe Paynes. She was nominated for a Nollywood and African Film Critics Award for her role in the motion picture The Man in 3B. In 2019, Jackée participated in a groundbreaking reimagining of Norman Lear's The Jeffersons, which garnered more than 22 million viewers. In 2021, she rejoined the world of daytime television as real estate mogul Paulina Price on Days of our Lives. Larger than life and twice as funny, Jackée continues to entertain and inspire in a way that permanently cements her place in the American cultural landscape. ABOUT DAYS OF OUR LIVES ON PEACOCK For the past 58 years, Days of our Lives has remained a staple daytime drama. It has weathered political and societal shifts since the mid-1960s and proudly introduced its first Black family, the Grants, in the mid-1970s. Its female heroine, Valerie Grant, shared daytime's first interracial kiss in 1977. Today, Black stories continue to be front and center, addressing societal issues including healthcare, family and career. Today's cast includes James Reynolds, with Jackée Harry, Raven Bowens, Elia Cantu, and features Lamon Archey and Sal Stowers as "Eli" and "Lani" respectively, who were the couple in the show's first Black wedding.https://jackee-online.com/ https://www.facebook.com/JackeeHarry https://www.twitter.com/JackeeHarry https://www.instagram.com/JackeeHarry https://www.youtube.com/c/JackeeHarryOfficialBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.

Ice Cream Base Recipe Homestead Life Updates Garden The garden is done. Well, there are a few sweet potatoes to be dug up, but other than that, it’s all gone. Whew. Now we can rest until the spring. Well, not quite. There are clean up tasks and winter preparation of the beds, adding compost to improve the soil over the winter and covering the beds to keep the moisture in and the weeds out. Quail We are ready for another batch of quail eggs in the incubator. Not so many as last time. Due to the reduction of daylight, they are laying much fewer eggs. Last time it was 47. This time less than 30. Whatever comes in today will be the last of this period of collection. Eggs can be collected for 7 to 10 days and kept in a cool environment but not in the refrigerator. Most of our quail are brown coturnix. They are tan and brown with spotted plumage. We have one white one from the original batch of eggs that we purchased and one white one from that first batch that we hatched out about 2 months ago. They are already mature. The males are fertile and the females are old enough to begin laying eggs. We will take out enough females to fill out our breeding stock and the rest will go to freezer camp. Cows We are down to one bull from this year’s calves and we have just offered up Egwene for sale as well. She is our purebred Jersey heifer calf. Her mom is certified A2A2 and her sire is also certified A2A2. If you are interested please let us know. She is a lovely calf and quite affectionate if she thinks you have a bottle. We are weaning her and she has only a day or so left where she will get milk. At 5 ½ months old, she is developed enough to live on grass. Homesteading requires tough choices and letting go of favored animals is one of them. I will miss her but we have to be true to our plan. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) The cooler weather we have had recently has been such a blessing. I hope it has been for you as well. I’m not a fan of summer. I like it okay in the beginning but it just seems to drag on and on. I’m the same way about winter. My favorite season is a toss up between spring and fall. Right now, fall is my favorite season, but I can guarantee you that in March my favorite season will be spring. I tend to get seasonal affective disorder. Anyone familiar with that? As the winter drags on and there is less sun, vitamin D can be in short supply and depression may not be far behind. Usually by the end of January I’m feeling it and by the end of February I can be almost immobile. My level of motivation has fallen through the floor. These days I just accept what is and don’t try to fight it. I revel in my – shall I say – laziness and enjoy it while it lasts. Come spring the world will spin out of control with so much to do and no time to do it all. It’s a familiar cycle for me. I’ve learned to ride it like a roller coaster. Let’s get to today’s topic. How Long Does Raw Milk Last? The short answer is nearly forever. The only thing that will stop you from consuming it is an aversion to the taste. First it becomes sour. Next it will thicken into yogurt. However, it will be a very strong yogurt. That yogurt will last a month or more. Along that time line you can drink the milk, use it in cooking, make cultured butter and buttermilk, and so on. Contrast that with pasteurized milk. Pasteurized milk does not sour, it rots. It truly goes bad and is not safe for consumption. You do not want to put it in your mouth under any circumstances. On the other hand, when raw milk ages and starts to sour, this is good! Great, in fact.  What Makes Milk Sour and What Do I Do with It? The reason raw milk starts to sour is because beneficial, probiotic bacteria amounts are increasing and using up the lactose sugar, making it taste sour, again, like a nice unsweetened yogurt. So, how long should your raw milk last when you get it home? Sandra Clark whose website is www.healthfoodnaturally.com, has this to say: “If you get the milk the day it is milked, it will stay fresh up to 2 weeks. If it sours, no worries, it will become yogurt with no help at all (with a little sour cream on top).” Without a starter, the sour cream on top usually bitters, so you can just scrape it off and compost it if you don’t like the taste.” As for the yogurt, when we have left over milk at the end of the week, we just throw it in a ball jar and leave it in the fridge for if we get low on milk (because it has an amazingly long shelf life after turning into yogurt.)” When we do run out of milk, we just throw some honey and fruit (usually berries) in and blend the yogurt into a tasty yogurt drink.” I have some jars in there as old as two months and the yogurt tastes fine (well not like store-bought yogurt – to get that particular flavor you need to manipulate it with a bacteria starter like for cheese making – but with honey and fruit added it tastes wonderful!).” So according to Sandra it should last up to 2 weeks in your fridge. In my experience, I have kept milk for nearly a month before it soured. Because in the spring we have tons of milk, this happens often. We just keep drinking it until the flavor goes off, then use it for other purposes. What’s our Secret? What is our secret to milk lasting so long? It’s two-fold. First, cooling it quickly. The faster it gets below 40 degrees, the longer it is going to last. The second key is keeping it very cold. The colder you keep the milk, the longer it will last. Our milk refrigerator is set to 34 degrees. The problem that people have these days is having access to this great raw milk. I will do another podcast on how we got to this point. Today, I’ll just talk about where we are. There are lots of scary stories out there about how dangerous it is to drink raw milk. I say it’s hogwash and propaganda put out by some people in power with lobbyists to placate. The human species would have died out long before the pasteurization process was invented in the previous century if it was so dangerous. There are dangers in every food we consume. There are risks in every aspect of life. Assess your comfort level with the risk and make your choice. Raw Milk Choice The problem today is that in many states, there is no available choice for raw milk products unless you own your own cow. That’s why we started our herd share program. You can own part of a cow herd and receive the benefits of what your cows produce. More on that later. It’s so amazing to me that you can buy unpasteurized milk in the grocery store in 12 states, but the rest restrict it in various ways. It has to be labeled as pet milk in 4 states. 15 states allow it to be sold directly from the farm but not in the store. And of course, the herd share program is available in Virginia and 10 other states. In 9 states all sales are illegal and so are herd shares. So, 12 states think it is okay to for us buy raw milk and to consume it freely and the others are so certain we are all going to die of horrible illnesses that it has to be restricted or illegal altogether. I just cannot fathom the logic in this. If people were dying right and left, it would have been outlawed in all of those states wouldn’t it? Who is telling the truth? Recent Studies Show Raw Milk Related Illnesses are Decreasing While Access is Increasing You have to make up your own mind of course. And I will say again, there is risk in consuming any food. To help you with that decision as it pertains to raw milk, here is an article from the US National Library of Medicine Department of the National Institutes of Health (link in the show notes). It is titled Recent Trends in Unpasteurized Fluid Milk Outbreaks, Legalization, and Consumption in the United States. There is a ton of really great information in this study. Lots of data, as you might expect, and lots of charts and graphs. It’s really good stuff. I’ll quote from the Abstract. “Introduction: Determining the potential risk of foodborne illness has become critical for informing policy decisions, due to the increasing availability and popularity of unpasteurized (raw) milk. Methods: Trends in foodborne illnesses reported to the Centers for Disease Control in the United States from 2005 to 2016 were analyzed, with comparison to state legal status and to consumption, as estimated by licensing records. Results: The rate of unpasteurized milk-associated outbreaks has been declining since 2010, despite increasing legal distribution. Controlling for growth in population and consumption, the outbreak rate has effectively decreased by 74% since 2005. Discussion: Studies of the role of on-farm food safety programs to promote the further reduction of unpasteurized milk outbreaks should be initiated, to investigate the efficacy of such risk management tools.” So, there you have it. This study was initiated because they were pretty sure that the incidence of raw milk illnesses would increase as access was increased. They were wrong. There is now a push toward finding out if on-farm food safety programs are helping. I don’t need a study to tell me that they most certainly are. I’ve learned a lot of what I know because we have been studying cheesemaking for years. Others are just starting out and need to know about how to keep the environment sanitary and the milk clean. They need to know that it is really important to cool the milk quickly. Many still don’t use bulk milk tanks and have other ingenious methods of cooling the milk. A favored method is putting it in a freezer for 2 hours and then transferring to the refrigerator. I’m glad we have a bulk tank else frozen milk in broken jars would be a regular disaster. I get busy and forget stuff. Heck, I can walk into another room and forget why I went in there. Ever done that?  Raw Milk in Virginia In Virginia, the way to have access to raw milk is via the herd share. You support the business by buying a share of the herd and get a designated rate of return on your investment. It is a commitment to be sure. It’s kind of like that wine buying club. You are committing to a certain amount of product per month for as long as you are a member.  If you’re looking for an affordable cow herd share program in southern Virginia or the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina that has quality, healthy, and long-lasting raw milk, cheese, butter and yogurt, this is it. We are situated in Patrick County, Virginia just northeast of Mount Airy, NC. Here are four reasons our cow herd share program is so good. We offer 100% heritage breed Normande and Jersey milk, cheese, yogurt, cream and butter from cows with certified A2A2 genetics. I have a podcast on what A2A2 genetics means and I’ll include the link in the show notes. Briefly, there was as genetic mutation that happened a while back that changed the structure of the milk. Most milk today is NOT A2A2 in nature. One of the reasons we chose our heritage breed Normande cows was the purity of the ancient genetics.  We use antibiotics only at great need and absolutely NO growth hormones. Because we care for our pastures, our cows get only the best nutrition. Occasionally, there is a need for antibiotics. It’s no different than a human woman getting mastitis while breast feeding. Sometimes it happens and you take care of it. If it is necessary, that cow’s milk is harvested separately until the treatment and subsequent waiting period is long past. And the idea of forcing our cows to produce more milk with hormones is abhorrent to me. There is no regard for the health of the animal at all with hormones. There is only the focus on production. I don’t think those that use these artificial means of increasing milk even see that the cows are living beings. They treat them like machines. When they inevitably burn out due to over-taxing their bodies, they are shunted off to the sale barn and replaced with a younger model. It’s disgusting.  Our cows are out on grass all the time, and only come in for milking. They receive a small amount of non-soy, non-GMO grain supplement. This has two purposes. First, to entice the cow into the milking parlor and second to make sure she maintains her body condition. Our Normande cows can get by with absolutely no supplemental feed and maintain their body condition until late in the season. We choose to make sure they maintain body condition from beginning to end. The Jersey cow requires a great deal more supplemental nutrition. It is very easy for her to lose condition. I recently did a podcast on this as well (Normande vs Jersey – the Cost). The Jersey cow breed is a wonderful choice for many. But they do come with problems that we have not experienced with our Normandes. I won’t go into other details but, the days of Jersey cows on our homestead are numbered. To join their herd share program, it only costs $60 AND one share is only $44 monthly! You can also purchase a half share for $30 and $22 per month or multiple shares if you have a larger family. The herd produces milk from the first week of May through the last week of October. Yogurt and sometimes cream is also available in that time frame. In the spring, there is always a glut of milk and we makes lots and lots of cheese with that. Our cheese are all raw milk cheeses. The legal requirement is that they be aged at least 60 days. However, none of our cheeses would be worth a darn at that young age. We age all of our cheeses well past that minimum. Some only come into their flavor after many, many months. And they get better and better with age. Our Herd Share Program Check out the Herd Share page on our website – www.peacefulheartfarm.com. Click or tap “herd share” on the menu to get more information. Or drop us a line via email or give us a call. We’d love to have a conversation with you. Fun fact about raw milk. Remember the old wives’ tale about drinking warm milk to get to sleep? That is likely due to the tryptophan in the milk. However, it doesn’t really work anymore unless you have a raw milk resource. Pasteurization destroys the tryptophan. And that’s it for today’s topic. Let’s finish up with a late summer recipe for home made ice cream. Ice Cream Base When it’s warm outside, a cold refreshing dish of ice cream can really hit the spot. This is a basic ice cream recipe that can be used as a base for many different flavors. I’ve included a download link to the flavorings. This silky, luscious and very classic custard can be used as the base for any ice cream flavor you can dream up. These particular proportions of milk and cream to egg yolk will give you a thick but not sticky ice cream that feels decadent but not heavy. For something a little lighter, use more milk and less cream, as long as the dairy adds up to 3 cups. You can also cut down on egg yolks for a thinner base, but don’t go below three. What You Need 2 cups heavy cream 1 cup whole milk ⅔cup sugar ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt 6 large egg yolks Your choice of flavoring What To Do In a small pot, simmer cream, milk, sugar and salt until sugar completely dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly whisk about a third of the hot cream into the yolks, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the pot with the cream. Return pot to medium-low heat and gently cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer). Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cool mixture to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or overnight. Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer’s instructions. Serve directly from the machine for soft serve, or store in freezer until needed. Notes Download the recipes for flavorings Final Thoughts I’m so glad that summer is winding down. It was a long, rough summer. And I missed about half of it because of the appendicitis. Again, not a huge fan of heat of summer. Remember to contact us if you are interested in a Normande bull to strengthen your herd genetics or if you are looking for that A2A2 Jersey heifer for yourself or to add to your herd. If you’re not into raising your own cow but still want the benefits of raw milk products, we are here to help you out with that. For us the benefits of raw milk and raw milk products far outweigh the small risk factor. I’ll do another podcast on the statistics for the number and percentage of illnesses attributed to raw milk consumption shown in the larger scope of food in general. Where does raw milk fall in the list of food born illnesses from food in general? I hope you try out some really great ice cream recipes in these last days of summer and the early autumn.

LinkedInformed Podcast. The LinkedIn Show

Welcome to episode 152, this week I’m going to cover the new Neptune design quite a bit as there have been quite a few developments. Firstly a big thank-you to Kurt Shaver, Darrel Griffin and the mysterious ‘LoveWeb’ for giving the show 5 star reviews on iTunes - I massively appreciate your support. Darrel Griffin can also be found on Instagram and is my ‘go to’ contact on anything to do with graphics - especially those we use on LinkedIn. So I have a question - what size should we be making our LinkedIn profile background image? The official dimensions from LinkedIn are 1536 x 768px but this doesn’t seem to work as it zooms into the image. New Desktop Design Update It would seem that there is no way to see your sent invitation messages - this is crazy! When someone has a paid account and the ‘open profile’ feature enabled, it is free to send them a message, this used to be shown on their profile by changing ‘send InMail’ to ‘send message’ but now they have removed this. Video autoplay has been deprecated…which is odd because every other social media channel is moving towards video! LinkedIn have removed the link ‘structuring your search’ which explained how to use Boolean operators. This might be because they now realise the information they were providing was actually incorrect! Irina Shamaeva (who knows her stuff) has exposed LinkedIn’s advice in this article below. LinkedIn Tip Sheet Error And a New Hack - Irina Shamaeva So it would appear that we now need to use the operator Title: in front of every job title in an OR search string! The Great U-Turn LinkedIn have had to face an enormous amount of negative feedback about the new design. There was the online petition I mentioned last week which got c1800 signatures plus a huge response to their various posts asking for feedback. Sometimes people are so rude and negative, it really is unnecessary and if there is one comment that annoys me more than anything it’s… “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it” What a load of crap! We should never wait for things to break before improving them. All the best ideas and progression come from taking the complete opposite view. Anyway the good news is that LinkedIn are listening and David Flink published this article this week; We heard you: we're making some changes to LinkedIn Search It would also appear that they are seriously considering bringing back postcode radius search…which would be massive! I really applaud LinkedIn for their approach. Taking criticism is not easy and to take this approach is refreshing and progressive. But…… Why did it ever get to this stage in the first place? I could have told them about all these faults in October but no-one was listening! LinkedIn say they survey members before making changes but either; They are asking the wrong people They are not listening. Such a massive u-turn on so many features should not be necessary at this stage. Waiting until almost full roll-out before listening means they have lost a massive amount of credibility. Thanks to Sandra Clark for her voicemail question about Sales Navigator. For me the three key benefits are as follows; Focussed home page feed. This massively improves your chances of engaging with those people you are especially focussed on. You can filter search results by ‘posted on LinkedIn in last 30 days’. I have found this to be really useful Saved searches are better, partly because of the above filter. You can receive daily email alerts about people who meet your criteria and are active Question: How do I create a showcase page in the new groups design? Answer You can’t! But you can if you revert back to the old design where you will find it in the menu on the edit button. Question: The messaging segment sends the message by pressing enter (which is not a good thing as the enter key is often used to insert a line-feed for starting a new paragraph). You leave no clue how to insert a new paragraph so my message is on solid block of text. How do I start a new paragraph in a message? Answer This depends how you are messaging. If you go to the specific messaging page you can change the default as seen below If however you are using the ‘in page’ messaging feature then you are effectively using a chat feature and every ‘return’ is a ‘send message’. This makes sense to me. If you want to construct a nicely laid out message, using the Messaging page.

In our silver anniversary episode, Phil and Eric talk about the lexical set dress, and all the various vowels that are associated with it. That includes [e] or is it [ɛ]? The guys try to uncover the history behind the choice to use [e], and advocate pretty hard for their preference, [ɛ]. Show Notes:We referred to these as we chatted, but wandered all over the place, so we probably don’t get to most of them...DRESSOpen-mid front unrounded vowelNotice that it isn’t mid. We don’t have a symbol there at mid. It’s front , though we can feel how much more front /i/ is. The chart reflects thisIt’s unrounded, but that doesn’t necessarily mean spread.It’s a short vowelIt’s a checked vowelCardinal vowel #3 – Daniel Jones /ɛ/Cardinal vowel #2 – Daniel Jones /e/“Cardinal vowels (2), (3), and (4) are defined as front vowels that form a series of auditorily equidistant steps between cardinal vowels (1) and (5)” -Ladefoged Jones also makes a tense/lax distinctionIn The Pronunciation of English:We distinguish two intermediate positions, half-closed and half-open, in which the tongue is lowered from the closed position to about one-third, and two-thirds, of the total distance from the closed position to the open position Examples of …, halfclosed, half-open, … vowels aree (pen, pen), ɛ (pair, pɛə),e: the half-closed front tense unrounded vowelɛ: a lengthened ɛe Half-closed front lax unrounded. Examples: pen, pen, head, hed. 
In L this vowel is often replaced by i, e.g. git, indʒin for get (get), endʒin (engine). In many dialects it is replaced by the opener ɛ , thus, pɛn, hɛd.

Besides occurring independently, the sound e occurs in StP as the first element of the diphthong ei, e.g. day, dei. With many speakers, especially in N.Eng. this diphthong is tense, i.e. the two elements are the tense vowels corresponding to the lax e, i. In Sc the diphthong is not generally used, a pure tense vowel (phonetic symbol e:) being substituted (de:). In L the first element of the diphthong ei is much opener than in StP, becoming ɛ, æ, a, or even ɑ, thus dɛi, dæi, dai, dɑi. In L e sometimes occurs instead of ʌ 

Note the faulty pronunciation of aerate (StP eiəreit or eəreit) as ɛəreit or iəreit. The words again, always are often pronounced agen, ɔ:lwiz, ɔ:lwəz, but the forms agein, ɔ:lweiz are preferable.

Half-open front unrounded. This sound only occurs in StP in the diphthong ɛə. Examples there, their, ðɛə. See also the previous section. In the pronunciation of many S.Eng. speakers, the first element of this diphthong is more open than ɛ, being in fact practically æ (ðæə). The form ɛə is preferable. In L the first element of this diphthong is the half-closed tense vowel e: (ðeə)“The standard lexical set DRESS is defined as comprising those words whose citation form in RP has the stressed vowel /e/ and in GenAm /ɛ/” -Wellsstep, bet, neck, fetch, Jeff, mess, mesh, ebb, bed, egg, edge, rev, fez, hem, pen, bell, shelf, hemp, tent, theft, best, sex, next, effort, method, terror, tenor, jelly, centre/center, pester, threat, sweat, deaf, death, bread, dead, head, health, realm, meant, breast, ready, jealous, pleasant, weather, treacherous, any, many, Thames, friend, says, said, Leicester, bury.These words are mostly spelled with “e” or “ea”. These two spellings represent two sources in Middle English: “short e” and “long ɛ” Those spelled with “e” have stayed somewhere close to [ɛ] while those spelled “ea” were originally pronounced [e]. – Falstaff, for example, rhymes “raisins” with “reasons”.
This pronunciation remains in some accents.

Breaking and shading effects are possible with DRESS as they are with KIT. In some accents the vowel is raised toward /ɪ/ in environments where it is followed by a nasal, making the words “pin” and “pen” homophones.Breaking is the diphthongization of monophthongs. Shading is the development of different allophones conditioned by the place of articulation of the following consonant. With DRESS in the South, shading seems to occur in Southern American accents when /ɛ/ is followed by /d/, /m/, /l/ or /ʤ/. When followed by /ɡ/, /ʃ/, /ʒ/, or /ʒ/, the effect can be so strong as to shift the vowel all the way to the diphthong /eɪ /.SQUARE and MERRY/MARRY/MARY in a future show!Swedish makes a distinction between monophthongal /eː/ /ɛː/ and /ɛ/but when I listen to the samples there is more of a difference in quality than quantityhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_phonology#Vowels French contrasts /eː/ /ɛː/ /ɛ/  and /ɛ̃/                So saith Wikipedia.

Jack Windsor Lewis: 'When it comes to a snappy name for [ɛ] I shd prefer 'Greek e' to epsilon (whether as /ep`saɪlən/ or /`epsɪlən/). 'ɛə becominɡ monophthonɡal ɛː— JWL: All three of the GB centring diphthongs are very commonly he·rd with monophthongal allophones. Traditionally these wd not be used before breaks ie at the ends of rhythm units. However, the case of /ɛə/ is different. The use of a strest unit-final [ɛː] wd indicate that the speaker must be categorised as possessing a phoneme /ɛː/ replacing the traditional /ɛə/. This was at one time distinctly a minority usage: Daniel Jones in 1958 only sed "[o]ccasionally one hears [it]". However, it's now for sev·ral decades become less and less so. John Wells: A Red Dress -- Northern Cities Shift, DRESS is mid-centralizing ɛ → ɐIn Canada, it's just becoming more open: DRESS is shifting ɛ → æJohn Wells: Antipodean (i.e. Australian vs. New Zealand) "While both Australians and New Zealanders — but particularly the latter — can give the rest of us the impression that they are pronouncing DRESS words with the KIT vowel (Rebekah → Ribikah) and TRAP words with the DRESS vowel (shag → sheg), it is only New Zealanders whose KIT vowel is so centralized as to lead us to perceive it as the STRUT vowel. Australians, on the other hand, make it closer and fronter than in many other accents, nearer to [i]. "Wells, in response to Upton's changes for OED:Bet. In some languages, notably French and German, one needs to distinguish two e-type vowels, a closer one (IPA [e]) and an opener one (IPA [ɛ]). The English bet vowel lies between them, but is more similar to [ɛ], which is why Upton prefers that symbol. However, from the point of view of an EFL learner whose native language is, say, Japanese or Greek -- languages that have no such distinction -- it is quite unnecessary to distinguish the "[e]" at the starting point of the face diphthong from the "[ɛ]" of bet. And following IPA principles, if we are to choose just one of the two symbols we should prefer the simpler one.http://phonetic-blog.blogspot.com/2009/03/e-and.html1. Although I usually use e for the English vowel of DRESS, there is nothing incorrect or unscientific about using ɛ instead. This is the symbol used in the Kenyon-Knott system, still in use among American dialectologists and speech people (who just call this notation “IPA”), and also for EFL in Taiwan (but as far as I know, virtually only in Taiwan). Ladefoged used it in earlier editions of his Course in Phonetics, before switching to e.2. An important principle of good phonetic transcription is simplicity. As Ladefoged formulates it,"A simple phonemic transcription uses the smallest possible number of different letters." [D. Abercrombie, 1964, English Phonetic Texts, London: Faber & Faber, page 19.]Since the DRESS vowel can be unambiguously written e, an English transcription with the symbol e is simpler than one with ɛ. The same applies in those languages that have just five vowels (or just five peripheral vowels), e.g. Modern Greek, Serbian, Polish, Czech, Japanese. In these languages the mid front vowel is best, and most simply, written e. Whether its quality is closer to that of cardinal 2 [e] or cardinal 3 [ɛ] is irrelevant. On the other hand, in languages that have a close-mid front vowel in contrast to an open-mid one (e.g. French, German, a Scottish accent of English), the two symbols e and ɛ must both be used; and that means ɛ for French même, German Bett, and Scottish dress.http://phonetic-blog.blogspot.com/2009/03/more-about-e-and.html3. The vowel of English DRESS varies considerably. A former RP quality, now obsolete, was very close to cardinal 2 [e]: a similarly close-mid quality is to be heard in Australian English, and in New Zealand it is often even closer. The current British average quality is somewhere between cardinal 2 [e] and cardinal 3 [ɛ]. There are also local varieties in which it is fully open-mid. In American English it can be open-mid and considerably centred. If we want to symbolize all of these possibilities in a single symbol, the phonetic case for [e] is not much different from the case for [ɛ]. 4. The choice of symbol for DRESS is bound up with the question of the choice of symbol for FACE. In accents where the FACE vowel is monophthongal and not distinctively long (e.g. Scottish English, perhaps some northern AmE) we must write face as fes and dress as drɛs. In all other varieties of English, where FACE is either a long monophthong or a diphthong, there will be no confusion in writing DRESS with e as long as FACE is written correspondingly as eː or eɪ (or, with Trager and Smith, as ey, or with Chomsky and Halle as ēy). 5. Furthermore, there are many accents in which the diphthong of FACE starts more open than the height of DRESS: for example, popular London and SE England (“Estuary English”) and Australian and New Zealand speech. (It was phonetically perverse of the Macquarie dictionary of Australian English to write FACE as eɪ and DRESS as ɛ.) 6. Consider now the position, say, of Japanese learners of English. In their own language they have just a single mid front vowel, ェ e. It is (in my view) entirely satisfactory for them to use this sound for the English DRESS vowel, and as the first part of an eɪ diphthong for English FACE. If we were to write DRESS as drɛs we would be implying that they need to learn to use a special (non-Japanese) quality for DRESS, different from the starting point of FACE feɪs. And instead of occasional emails from Europe asking why I don’t use ɛ, I would be faced with hundreds of emails from Japan asking me to explain why I use a funny symbol ɛ. (My readers will correct me if I am wrong, but — as far as I know — Japanese, Korean and Chinese dictionaries of English, except in Taiwan, all transcribe the DRESS vowel as e.)7. Lastly, the tradition in English pronouncing dictionaries ever since they first appearance of EPD nearly a century ago has been to write DRESS as e. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.Wells' "Lexical Sets" [http://phonetic-blog.blogspot.com/2010/02/lexical-sets.html] The choice of the keyword DRESS has proved awkward for people dealing with New Zealand English, where the upward shifting of the vowel in question has led them to have to refer to DRESS Raising.Newfoundland English by Sandra Clark from A Handbook of Varieties of English: Phonology vol 1 ed Edgar W. Schneider, DRESSFor most speakers, the DRESS vowel is realized as standard lax low-mid [ɛ]. On the Irish Avalon, conservative rural speakers display variable and conditioned raising of this vowel to [ɪ] in the environment of a following stop or affricate, e.g. pension, get, connected. As noted above, the same phenomenon may be observed among conservative speakers in rural English-settled areas of the province, where raising to [ɪ] occurs before a following non-velar stop or affricate, as in head, hedge, engine, bench. Before /l/ or a voiceless velar, however (e.g. yellow, wreak, breakfast), lowering to an [æ]-like articulation may occur in English-settled areas. In addition, [ɛ] before a voiced velar may be tensed and diphthongized in a stressed syllable, as in keg pronounced [kʰeiɡ] (e.g. Noseworthy 1971.) A similar lowered and somewhat retracted pronunciation of [ɛ] for words in the DRESS set is beginning to make inroads, in a broad set of phonetic environments, in the speech of upwardly mobile young urban Newfoundlanders. This reflects the influence of the innovative CanE tendency described as the "Canadian Shift" by Clarke, Elms and Youssef (1995), in which lax front vowels are lowered and retracted. CAMEROON English by Augustin Simo Bobda from A Handbook of Varieties of English: Phonology vol 1 ed Edgar W. Schneider, paintEd with [ɛ] , with words in -ess (actress, princess), -less, -ness, -men. and villAge, with [e], with words in -ace, -ain, -ate, -ein sets in Cameroon EnglishThe regular realizations of the DRESS vowel are /ɛ/ and /e/, which are in complementary distribution in some cases; /ɛ/ occurs in final syllables as in pen, rest, breast, while /e/ occurs before one and only one medial consonant, and before Cj, Cw, and Cr sequences as in element, medical, special, educate, equity, equalize, metric, retrograde. The tensing of /ɛ/ to /e/ in this context is known in the literature as the E-Tensing Rule. /e/ frther occurs frequently before the sequences of mC and nC as in embassy, emperor, member, centre, mention. /e/ finally occurs with the common word says, as a result of the local restructuring of the FACE vowel induced by the analogy with say and other words in orthographic ay.***new stuff added today***NZE by Laurie Bower and Paul Warren in A Handbook of Varieties of English: Phonology vol 1 ed Edgar W. Schneider, The DRESS vowel is close in New Zealand, even by Australian standards, and may overlap with the FLEECE vowel in terms of its formant structure, although more central variants are also common. There is neutralization with SQUARE before /r/ (making ferry and fairy homophonous) and neutralization with TRAP before /l/ (as in Ellen and Alan). If vowels are to be paired in terms of length/tension, then in NZE the DRESS vowel should be paired with the FLEECE vowel, as being the closest long vowel in terms of quality.FIJI EnglishDRESS and TRAP are, essentially, merged. So words like paddle/peddle, lag/leg, tampered/tempered are homophonous.
