I'd try slipping a bread knife between the lid and the pan and carefully prying. You can also try putting the pan/lid on it's side and softly banging it on a cutting board or counter top. You might try setting the pan in a sink-full of cold water while pouring hot water over the top. The hope here is, to expand the bottom while contracting the lid. This presumes that the lid lip fits inside the pan.
Ans 2.
Pouring hot water over the top will make the top expand, while having the pan in cold water will tend to make the pan shrink. These dimensional changes will make the lid all the tighter, so don't do it.
There may well be a vacuum inside the pan. If the lid has a plastic knob on it, try unscrewing it; if you can and you hear a hiss you are probably golden.
If it won't unscrew, try putting an inch of water into a larger pan, then put it on the stove. When the water boils, put the stuck pan into it. After a few minutes, cool the lid as best you can. The best trick might be a pillow case containing 2 or 3 handfuls of ice. Hold it above the pan so the cold bottom rests on the pan-lid. When the ice is mostly melted, try the lid.
If it still won't open get a really small drill bit; between 1/32" and 1/16" diameter and make sure it is an HSS drill. Drill a hole in the lid to let air in.
If this fails your last resort is to invert the pan in a larger pan containing several inches of boiling water; boil until it separates or you decide to buy a new one.
p.s. next time you steam lentils, don't use a tight fitting lid. The same lid will do, but you put it on the pan at a slight angle, one side of the lid cocked up and the other side dipping down into the pan about half an inch. This will prevent all the water boiling away, but not get stuck.
Yes you can I steam them a little first to open shells Then shuck them and freeze them in the broth (cooled) If quahog is open before steaming Throw it away If you can't open it easy after steaming throw it away
If it's the RADIATOR that's steaming it probably means that you have a leaky radiator. If the cap is steaming it might just mean that you need to replace the radiator cap, but it could mean that the engine is overheating. Check the coolant level and make certain that you do not see evidence of leakage anywhere around the engine or radiator. After the engine has cooled, look for light green powder around the edges of the radiator and around the water pump. This is evidence of leakage.
Bismuth can be melted in a stainless steel pot atop a kitchen stove and very slowly cooled. The excess should then be poured into a stainless steel pot and depending on the length and evenness of the cooling process the crystals will be formed during the cooling period. Simple and easy. Requires 99.99% pure elemental metal or greater.

The making of stainless steel pipe is a long and intense process. There is a piece of round bar that is heated at first and then a mandrel is inserted into it giving it a round and hollow shape. Due to its irregular shape the pipe is rolled continuously and cooled down with chilled water for making it hard. And of course the stainless steel pipe is safe for drinking water as it is resistant to corrosion and is much durable.
Water cooled.
water cooled is better
Liquid cooled. The last "sport" bike to be air cooled was the WAY out of date Katana
Air cooled, water cooled and ground cooled
Its both air and water cooled.
Yes
The 1984 is air cooled, 1985 and on are water cooled.
