Beurre Blanc is a French sauce (“white butter”) based on a reduction of shallots and an acid such as
Orange Beurre Blanc Sauce for Seafood Recipe
Yield: Makes about 1 cup.
Ingredients 2 oranges 1/2 cup white wine 2 teaspoons minced shallots 1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter Salt and white pepper
Method
1 Zest half of one orange (about 2 teaspoons) and juice the two oranges (about 3/4 cup). Put the juice, zest, wine and shallots in a sauce pan on medium high heat. Cook until it is syrupy and almost gone.
2 On low heat, whisk in the butter continuously and vigorously, 1 tablespoon at a time. Butter is the only emulsifier for this sauce, and if you slowly add it, continuously stirring, the sauce will achieve a silky smooth texture. Do not let the sauce boil.
3 Add salt and pepper to taste.

10.8: Open a specific browser based on the URL
10.8: Open a specific browser based on the URLAug 27, '14 07:00:00AM • Contributed by: tom_sep Usually I want to open Gmail in Chrome and URLs pointing to my development server in Firefox. For everything else I use Safari.
There is this nifty free app called LinCastor that enables you to register your own handler for an URL. Although it had beed designed to register your own non-standard URL schemes, it can intercept standard http and https as well.
In LinCastor (which you need to double-click twice to fully open for editing): Add a new URL schemeChoose AppleScript handlerPaste the following code in, (replacing the stub code at the bottom): on handle_url(args) if (|URL| of args starts with "https://mail.google.") then tell application "Google Chrome" open location |URL| of args end tell else if (|URL| of args starts with "http://") then tell application "Firefox" open location |URL| of args end tell else tell application "Safari" open location |URL| of args end tell end return 1endObviously you should customize the code to suite your own specific needs. You can validate the script right in LinCastor before saving/activating it. I use the same mechanism to launch 'site specific browsers apps' created by Fluid. For example I have a JIRA app wrapper which looks for anything staring with http://issues.
[crarko adds: I tested this, and it works as described. LinCastor requires OS X 10.8 or later. I tried it in 10.10 beta 2, and it also worked there. There's not much documentation for it, so tinker around a bit to get the result you want.]
