Faculty Highlights - Dr. Leonor Leandro
Assistant Professor
Describe your journey to Iowa State University? My journey to ISU started in Lisbon, Portugal, where I grew up and obtained my undergraduate degree in Agricultural Sciences (we call it 'Agronomical Engineering'). I then went to the University of Nottingham, in England, to study a Master's degree in Environmental Science. By then I knew I wanted to pursue a research career in plant pathology, so I came to ISU to obtain my PhD degree. After working as a postodoc at North Carolina State University for two years, I returned to ISU for a faculty position, where I have been doing research on fungal diseases of soybean and teaching mycology since May 1, 2006.
Why did you choose a career in plant pathology? What I like most about plant pathology is that it is a multidisciplinary field, where you learn about microbes, plants, and the environment, as well as their interactions. I have always had a passion for fungi, and I find it very fulfilling to work with such fascinating organisms within the applied field of Agriculture. Plant pathology allows me to study fascinating details of the relationship between microbes and plants, without loosing sight of the 'big picture' of agricultural production.
What excites you about your job? I like to think that my research of fungal pathogens will have a practical application for soybean producers. I also really enjoy teaching students about fungi and the many different was these organisms are important in our lives.
What is your area of research and what impact does your research have? My research focuses on the biology and epidemiology of fungi that cause diseases on soybeans, with particular emphasis on soilborne pathogens. We try to improve our understanding of how these pathogens cause disease and what environmental conditions favor infection and symptom development. This information is used to develop disease management practices for soybean producers.
What do you enjoy most about living in/near Ames? People are really friendly and helpful, and there is a true sense of community that has always made me feel at home here. Ames has the advantages of a small city, like no traffic jams and irritable drivers, but there are lots of ways to get involved in sports, and cultural and recreational activities. I also love the multicultural and international diversity of the Ames community.
What do you do when you are not working? I like to do outdoors activities, like hiking, canoeing, and camping, and also like to stimulate my creative side by painting watercolors and taking dance lessons.

It looks like original TNA Knockout Traci Brooks has once again parted ways with the company as her profile has been removed from the company's official website.
Brooks returned to the company after a two year hiatus last year, aiding Velvet Sky in her feud with ODB and Jackie. She is perhaps best known in this past run, however, for her role as former Knockouts Vice President Karen Jarrett's assistant. During her time as Karen's assistant, Traci took on Gail Kim in what was supposed to be a squash match at the VP's request, however, Traci instead took the fight to Kim in a highly memorable match.
After Jarrett's departure in December, Traci began being used sparsely, last appearing on Impact Wrestling in January.
Traci was previously with the company from 2003 through late 2009. She is recognized as the first TNA Knockout.
Watch Traci's standout match with Gail Kim below:
God dammit, not again -.-
I know right,Jackie and Traci had came back to TNA for the second time around and then gave them the departure papers especially to their very first Knockout Traci Brooks.
Please no. :(
please let Traci at ring ka king
aaaah no!!! I thought they were going to make her come back once velvet would have won her belt back ..
She's boring to me so as long as Kazarian stays I'm cool with it.
Well, she wasnt really used on the show anyway. Like TNA said, they are going to focus more on the people that are in active storylines.
Again? At this point, Traci must me saying to management "see you all next year" or something.
I wish she'd stayed. Even if not as a wrestler, but at least as an assistant to whomever is the lead character there. I hope she stays in the business
She wasn't the first TNA Knockout. There were a ton of women on the first PPV's and the first prominent woman was Trinity. Traci came in quite a while into TNA's existence.
I never really cared for her and she's never really used consistently anyway, so I'm not surprised at this at all.
So now there's only 11 Knockouts left, please bring more girls from the Indies, TNA ! I'm tired of ex-divas taking up the whole roster but I'll make an exception to Melina. And Indie girls have so much more potential and we need brand new faces in the division.
it doesn't seem like tna is bringing *anyone* in. :(
at this rate we won't even get one new knockout a year.they brought in toxxin/ who was there for like a month or so something.aside from that when and who was the last new knockout they signed ????
I honestly don't want any indy female wrestlers to go to TNA.
They would be sexualized, they would be told to do slutty things (photoshoots, stories) they would be called knockouts, they would be shoved to the side in favor of Divas. No thanks.
Are we not watching the same program? Many girls on the indies do photo shoots as it is. It's apart of wrestling, men do it as well and don't think many females don't like to look at them. How many KO Titles has Angel Williams won, Gail Kim (don't tell me she's not a wrestler), ODM, Mickie James, Winter, etc, etc. The women there get the chance to wrestle. This isn't the WWE. While they don't do many things correct (like the KO's should have their own show) don't treat them as if they book women's wrestling like the WWE.
i dont know if your a wwe fan but do u not think indy women would also be sexualised in wwe's photoshoots too? because looking sexy sells and it does not have to affect the talent's wrestling.
I don't care for her all that much, but it doesn't feel right that they just released her right that. She should've had a better ending considering how long she's been there.
Used well for awhile then nothing. Doesn't make much sense. I do love how after her first release there were so many rumors about nobody getting along with her and this time not a word. Got to love politics and rumors.
aww that sucks but since she has been offscreen since january – i cant be too disappointed that she's been released or asked to be released. tbh i didnt like her in the role she was as karen's lackey and would have preferred her in the frame for the title. i do feel this isnt the last we have seen of her in tna.
in relation i would love them to bring in another KO to replace her from the indies or they could possibly offer alissa flash a contract as i would love to see her return.
I don't really want them to bring anyone new in. They're really only using 4/11 regularly so there's a few too many as it is.
What I'd like to see is Gail losing the title to Velvet and then for something completely different in the title scene a long Velvet vs. Angelina feud. The promos and videos for this would be flat out awesome. Have Mickie back up Velvet and Winter back up Angelina so we can integrate more women into the program.
I'd put Gail/Madison into a feud with ODB/EY to keep them on TV as well. Maybe do more with Mexican America, even just have them job more often so at least Sarita/Rosita remain in sight every now and then. Maybe have Brooke with or without Tara valet for someone. At least attempt to use all the women they have before bringing in anyone else.

ARPA-E Invests $33 Million for Projects Aimed at Transforming Fuel Cell Technology
The U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) announced $33 million in funding for 13 new projects aimed at developing transformational fuel cell technologies for low-cost distributed power generation. The projects, which are funded through ARPA-E's new Reliable Electricity Based on ELectrochemical Systems (REBELS) program, are focused on improving grid stability, balancing intermittent renewable technologies and reducing CO2 emissions using electrochemical distributed power-generation systems.
Fuel cells are optimal for distributed power generation systems, which offer an alternative to large, centralized power generation facilities or power plants. While centralized power generation systems have an excellent economy of scale, they often require long transmission distances between supply and distribution points, leading to efficiency losses throughout the grid. Additionally, it can be challenging to integrate energy from renewable energy sources into centralized systems.
Current, state-of-the-art fuel cell research generally focuses on technologies that either operate at high temperatures for grid-scale applications or at low temperatures for vehicle technologies. The REBELS projects focus on low-cost intermediate-temperature fuel cells (ITFCs) emphasizing three technical approaches.
The first approach will deliver efficient, reliable ITFCs made from low-cost materials and system components for use in distributed generation systems. The second approach integrates both ITFCs and electricity storage at the device‐level rather than system‐level, enabling a battery-like response to transient power loads. The third approach develops ITFCs that also convert methane or other gaseous hydrocarbons into liquid fuels using excess energy.
ARPA-E launched the REBELS program in late 2013.

6:33 PM PT -- Gabriel has been released from custody.
5:55 PM PT -- Gabriel has been booked for misdemeanor battery. According to his booking sheet, he's listed as 6'2" and 180 pounds. He's still in custody and his bail has been set at $20,000.
5:30 PM PT -- Sources tell TMZ ... when Gabriel and Olivier started going at it, Halle rushed Nahla inside the house so she missed the brutality.
3:35 PM PT -- Gabriel has been released from the hospital and is currently at an L.A. jail where he is being booked. Olivier has also left the hospital and has returned to Halle's home.
Gabriel Aubry was arrested Thanksgiving morning after a melee at Halle Berry's house, which sent both Gabriel and Halle's fiance Olivier Martinez to the hospital ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Gabriel showed up to Halle's house with Nahla for a custodial hand-off. We're told Gabriel was still in the motor court (a rich person's word for a giant driveway) when Olivier walked up to him and said, "We have to move on."
According to witnesses, Gabriel then pushed Olivier and threw a punch at his face, but Olivier blocked it and the punch struck him in the shoulder instead. We're told Gabriel then pushed Olivier to the ground, and Olivier cold-cocked him in the face, and a struggle ensued, ending with Olivier pinning Gabriel to the ground.
In the struggle, Gabriel suffered a broken rib, contusions on his face, and possibly a more serious head injury. Olivier may have broken his hand and suffered neck injuries as well. There are conflicting accounts as to whether Gabriel was rendered unconscious in the fight.
Police were called and Olivier made a citizen's arrest for battery against Gabriel. Gabriel was escorted to the ER and, ironically, Olivier went to the same ER an hour later. The two were just down the hall from each other.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a judge has issued an emergency protective order, which requires Gabriel to stay 100 yards away from Halle, Olivier, and Nahla.
And finally, there's this ... specifics about the argument between Gabriel and Olivier are sketchy because they were trash talking each other in French.
It's pretty shocking -- considering Gabriel was out with Nahla just last night for a movie date at the Grove.
HALLE iz doing da RIGHT thing by keeping Gabriel's CRAZY ASS away from her
That just shows that Gabriel is NOT a father, just a sperm donor. Otherwise he would have walked away instead of starting a fight with his daughter present. He needs his parental rights removed for goid!!!
It is a set up.
Oh this is all Halle's fault. These tensions began when she tried to kick Gabriel out of her life because he served his purpose by providing her with a beautiful child.
Didn't he freak out on the nanny also? Hmmm wonder if he has a drug problem....He can't be this stupid.
I don't understand why Olivier said anything to Gabriel anyway. The whole custody mess has been instigated Halle wanting to take Nahla to live with Paris with Olivier away from her father. The request was outrageous and though what was happened is very wrong. I understand why Gabriel blew his top over the man (he probably believes) is the cause of his very expensive custody issues.
Some of you people are really mental, he was the one arrested so clearly he was the one that started the sh*t, he is injured more, so if he didn't start it Oliver would have been arrested, and here were witnesses, sometimes you people let your hatred for these celeb cloud your judgement to the point of ignorance, I tell you, and some of these racist remarks. SMDH!!!!! sad.
All of you idiots bashing halle seem to have forgotten, her ex was a physically and vebally abusive racist, hence the reason they arent together in the first place....he's a piece of sh*t and deserved every injury
Fighting in front of the kid. Good move dad!! "we have to move on" is no reason to try and hit someone! Shame on him!!
I smell a set-up. Provoke Aubrey enough so he takes a swing. With a restraining order against him, they have made him look bad. Halle and Olivier get to take Nahla to France.......perfect! Yeah, not so much! Have I mentioned that I intensely dislike Halle Berry for trying to separate her child from her child's father. Sad, Sad, Sad!
Gabriel is stupid for reacting that way, he already had won in his custody case and saw how hard it was to win so he deserves to lose this fight for being so stupid
This crap is redic. All involved are adults and should ALL act like it.
I can't stand Halle. She is one SELFISH f*cked up Biatch. Just because she and gabriel are no longer together, doesn't mean she can take away Nahla from his Father. It's soo wrong and soo UNFAIR!
Halle Berry will do anything to cut Gabriel out of hsi daughter's life. no sympathy for her, as she is always seeking attention. She is not worth any fight. This is her scheming in order to take the little girl out of the country. Shame on the judge who does not see the scheming of the poor attention starved Halle Berry. The little girl needs to be able to be with her father without her nutjob mother trying to flee with her bcause the father no longer ants her. The boyfriend should have just stayed out of it. He meddled, and what man wouldn't have beat his ass
I have always been in Gabriel's camp. Still am, and I am a separated Mom. I think Halle is a horrible Mom.
This child needs both her parents. She will use it against him, Could Olivier have been manipulating this and getting Gabriel to punch him.

Mold On Concrete
We just bought a two-family in a Boston suburb. There was evidence of minor water in the basement which the home inspector thought would be remediated thru some minor regrading. We foundation is poured concrete below grade and concrette block above grade. We scrubbed the basement walls with a wire brush and painted the basement with Dri-Lock. We also had the leaky windows replaced. All was well until we moved in and set up an electric dryer, properly vented out one of the new windows. Now there is a black powdery substance growing in the two dampest areas. It is much worse on the poured concrete. HELP! Any suggestions? I am loathe to call one of the mold remediation sites since I am sure they will exaggerate the issue.
A portable home dehumidifier may fix your problems. Poured concrete conducts heat very well, so the cool, damp Earth may be cool enough to cause condesation on your walls. A dehumidifier may be enough to dry the air before it gets your walls damp enough to mold.

Stein's Fish and Chips - Jill Stein Interior Design
Opened in April 2004 we launched Stein's Fish & Chips on South Quay, Padstow.
We wanted our Fish & Chip shop to be like an old traditional styled fish & chip shop with tiled walls but with a modern twist, our oak bench seating arrangement which is slightly unusual but a nice syle which complements the slate flooring.
I knew exactly what I wanted with the tiles, so I ended up at the Tile Council where you can get any artwork printed onto white tiles.
The pebble counter and slate flooring also bring the seaside inside.

Eastway is the best kennel in the city by far
Someone actually gave Eastway a 1-star rating?! Eastway is the best kennel in the city. The dogs basically have their own little "apartment" sized kennels with plenty of room for them to do everything. The staff are amazing and play with your dogs and walk if you pay the $2 for that service. Our dogs have very specific needs and are also not to be socialized and we've never had any issues. There's some bad kennels in this city that we have been to and Eastway is by far the BEST in the city.

Asus V550CA £699
29th Sep 2013 | 13:54
An affordable laptop, but has Asus cut too many corners to keep the price down?
Mid-ranged laptops such as the Asus V550CA-CJ106H can sometimes be a mixed bag. They come with price tags that make it hard to overlook the sort of shortcomings you'd forgive a laptop £300 cheaper. And yet they still can't target the highest-end components for the best possible performance.
Sometimes these laptops can get the balance right, such as the Samsung Series 9 NP900X3D, but more often than not they can end up being rather underwhelming, like the MSI CX61 0NF. So how does the Asus V550CA-CJ106H fare?
Unlike the MSI CX61 0NF, which tries to appeal to gamers with a separate graphics card, the Asus V550CA-CJ106H is a much more straightforward device that's better suited to office work, internet browsing and casual games at home. It's got a decent set of specs, though as sometimes is the case with laptops of this price range, the desire to keep the price down has resulted in compromises to its innards that keep it from reaching its full potential.
A good example of this is the Intel Core i7-3537U processor clocked at 2.50GHz. It's certainly no slouch, and it's always nice to see an i7 variant in a laptop of this price. But it uses Intel's older third- generation design, codenamed Ivy Bridge. These are fine chips, but Intel has since released its fourth-gen design, codenamed Haswell. Check out our review of the Intel Core i5-4670K for a better idea of how the newer generation of processor compares to the Ivy Bridge.
The most important thing to note is that the new Haswell architecture has a few improvements, such as better integrated graphics and more power-efficient design. These ensure a longer battery life, which is essential for laptops such as the Asus V550CA-CJ106H. It's a shame, then, that Asus has skipped these enhancements for a cheaper processor, just to lower the price tag.
If you're looking for a laptop with the latest technology then the Asus V550CA-CJ106H isn't going to be for you. For Haswell-toting laptops, you'll want to check out the Schenker XMG P703 or the Toshiba Satellite S50. Of course, you'll need to bear in mind that these laptops will be quite a bit more expensive than the Asus V550CA-CJ106H. However, if you want some solid tech for a palatable price and aren't too desperate for bleeding edge technology, then the Asus V550CA-CJ106H may be of interest.
As mentioned, the Asus V550CA-CJ106H packs an Intel Core i7-3537U processor. Laptops around the £600 to £800 mark usually go for the slightly lower-powered Core i5 variants when packing an Intel processor, so it's nice to see a Core i7 processor nestled in there. It's a third-generation Core i7 processor, so it doesn't have some of the more mobile-friendly features of the Haswell architecture.
The third-generation Ivy Bridge processors do include improvements over second-gen Sandy Bridge chips, however, including a smaller die. It's also the first Intel processor to use 3D transistors, which are more energy efficient and thus prolong the life of the laptop's battery. Of course, Haswell processors have this feature as well. The maximum TDP of the processor is just 17 Watts, which makes it ideal for a laptop such as the Asus V550CA-CJ106H, as it isn't too much of a burden on the battery, and it runs pretty cool.
The processor is clocked at 2.50GHz, which is a bit slower than you would get on a desktop, but perfectly fine for a laptop, as it carefully balances speed with battery drain and heat. If it was clocked any higher the battery would deplete faster, and more heat would be produced by the processor, potentially making it unstable.
As with almost all modern processors, it's 64-bit, which means that the Asus V550CA-CJ106H can take advantage of the 64GB version of Windows 8 as well as having access to a larger amount of RAM. In the Asus V550CA-CJ106H's case, this is 6GB of DDR3 RAM. This is plenty of memory for most day to day tasks and keeps Windows 8 running fine, but at the same time we're seeing more and more laptops shipping with 8GB of RAM. This means that the Asus V550CA-CJ106H isn't the smoothest laptop we've tried, and heavy sessions of multitasking between a number of intensive applications does take its toll.
It seems almost a bit greedy to be moaning about 'only' getting 6GB of RAM, especially if many people are upgrading from a laptop that had 4GB or less. But we've been spoilt by laptops wielding 8GB, so it's a shame that Asus has cuts corners here. That being said, for light office use, web browsing and photo editing, 6GB of RAM should be plenty.
The Asus V550CA-CJ106H also comes with 1TB of hard drive space, which is divided into two partitions; one for the Windows 8 installation, and the other for your files and programs. It offers bags of room for photos, videos and more, and you'd be hard pushed to fill it any time soon. As it's a standard mechanical hard drive it doesn't offer the speeds (especially when booting up) of a solid-state drive. But that's the price you pay for a lot of extra storage space and a lower price tag.
Other specifications include a 15.6-inch screen with a maximum resolution of 1366 x 768, making sharp, full 1080p high definition graphics a no-no. And there's no optical drive, so you won't be watching DVDs or installing programs from discs either.
3D Mark: 2375
Cinebench: 1612 (CPU render test) 1799 (OpenGL)
Battery eater: 3 hours 11 minutes
The Asus V550CA-CJ106H weighs 2.6kg, which isn't the lightest laptop we've held, but with the 15.6-inch screen and slim design, it's still a perfectly portable laptop. Its brushed aluminium case looks great, and you wouldn't feel ashamed taking this laptop out to public places. The 15.6-inch screen is clear and bright, and its touchscreen is smooth and responsive. It's helped by Windows 8's touch-orientated design, which makes navigating through the operating system using your fingers easy and intuitive.
Due to the relatively low resolution of the screen (1366 x 768), buttons and menus are comfortable to select and touch, which compares favourably to our experience with a number of laptops that have small screens but high resolutions. Of course the lower resolution of the screen does have its drawbacks – pictures and movies don't look as sharp, and the screen gets crowded pretty easily when lots of windows are open on the desktop. Windows 8 looks great on a full 1080p screen, so it's a bit of a shame that the Asus V550CA-CJ106H misses out on that.
Still, it boasts a good-sized keyboard that's very comfortable to work on. The keys are a decent size and are spaced well enough to make typing a pleasurable experience.
With the slim design (helped by a lack of optical drive), it seems the Asus is aiming for an Ultrabook aesthetic but at a reduced price. Kosher Ultrabooks such as the Gigabyte X11 and the Dell Latitude 6430u must conform to a certain set of specifications to be able to call themselves Ultrabooks. So while the Asus V550CA-CJ106H's slim design, processor and USB 3.0 ports would get it through some of the checkpoints, the lack of a fast SSD and battery life means it can't be classed as one.
Speaking of battery life, in benchmark tests we managed to get 3 hours 11 minutes of life while performing medium to intense work. This included word processing, web browsing, photo editing and watching video. It's not a great score and we'd have liked to see it somewhere over the five-hour mark for a laptop of this price, but it's not the worst score we've seen. With a few tweaks to Windows 8's power settings and some careful use, you may be able to eke out another 30 minutes to an hour.
Given the integrated graphics (Intel HD Graphics 4000) included with the Asus V550CA-CJ106H, we weren't expecting gaming to be a flawless experience, and we were right. Newer games became choppy even on lower graphics settings. If you want to play games on your laptop as well as work, you're better off getting a gaming laptop such as the Razer Blade – although expect to pay a lot more. Our 3DMark benchmarks produced a rather underwhelming 2375 score. The Asus V550CA-CJ106H's impressive processor provided much better scores, but that's to be expected of an Intel Ivy Bridge chip.
The overall result is a laptop that's quick and smooth when doing day to day tasks, but which lacks an extra bit of oomph when you're working on more demanding applications. Sometimes it just feels like it's being held back by some of the cost cutting choices Asus went for.
As with other laptops in this price range, the Asus V550CA-CJ106H has an unenviable task of balancing power and price, but it doesn't do too bad a job. There are some nice features, such as the generous 1TB of disk space included and the touchscreen, but there are also some trade-offs.
Thankfully none of the latter are deal breakers, and they help keep the laptop on the right side of £1,000. The processor might not be from Intel's latest and greatest generation, but it's still a fine processor that, due to it being last year's model, knocks a fair bit of change off the asking price.
Going for 6GB of RAM instead of 8GB is another compromise that, while disappointing, won't be too much of a problem for day-to-day use. However, if you're going to be photo or movie editing, or using hardware-intensive programs, than that missing 2GB of RAM will soon be felt.
The biggest disappointment is the low resolution of the screen. It might give the on-board graphics a bit of breathing space, but it means items on the screen aren't as crisp or clear as we'd have liked.
We liked
The outside design of the Asus V550CA-CJ106H is sleek and stylish, with the brushed aluminium case giving the laptop a suitably premium feel. When closed, the laptop is thin and easy to carry. While the processor isn't particularly cutting edge, it does its job well, and is better than other processors we've seen in similarly priced machines.
We didn't like
The low resolution screen is a shame, and the Intel HD Graphics 4000 just doesn't cut it for games. While the lack of an optical drive keeps the body of the laptop nice and slim, it is sometimes a bit of a hindrance, especially when trying to install older software where a download option isn't readily available. Battery life is also disappointing.
Final verdict
If you're fine with the compromises we've listed in return for a more wallet-friendly price tag, then the Asus V550CA-CJ106H is a decent laptop. For most tasks it will be absolutely fine, and the good processor and capacious hard drive space makes this a reliable business laptop. However, for the asking price it may be worth shopping around or spending a little more to get a laptop that's future proof for the next couple of years. The additional outlay could well save you money in the long run.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - A four-month investigation by Baton Rouge police has resulted in the arrests of six people and the seizure of 32 pounds of cocaine worth $1.4 million on the street.
Sgt. Don Kelly says the investigation began in late January with a traffic stop.
During the stop, Kelly says officers found a quarter-ounce of powdered cocaine and more than $18,000 in cash.
Three of the suspects are in federal custody and the other suspects are out on bail.

This film was a hit at the most recent Sundance Film Festival. The irrepressible Frank Langella and always appealing Susan Sarandon lead the cast in this quasi-sci-fi story set in the near future. Frank, a retired burglar living alone in a suburban home, has two adult children who are concerned he can no longer take care of himself. Against the old man's wishes, they buy Frank a walking, talking humanoid robot programmed… DetailsPark City Film Series – Robot and Frank

I know the question has been asked.....
Ive read the threads (some).....
However, I am still confused.
When do I switch from offset +2pc tier to 4pc tier.
At this point I have access to 5/5 tier ilvl 264 if I deiced to use any or all of it I will not be getting ilvl 277 as I am not in a guild that does 25's so the question really is......
Is 4pc tier ilvl 264 better than offset peices?
Currently I wear tier Helm and Shoulders I would most likely be replacing Offset Chest (vendor 264) and Gloves (vendor 264) and keeping Offset legs (Crafted 264). The changes would result in:
+24 stam
+11 str
+14 armor
+77 dodge
+29 parry
+61 hit
-91 def
-82 expertise
-2 socket
Obviously the sockets would be 2 30 stam gems making for a loss of 60 stam (or when combined with the bonus stam from the other pieces a total loss of 36 stam overall)
Well now that I have it out there what do you all think? When do you switch from offset pieces to 4pc tier? is it at the ilvl 264 or the ilvl 277 level?

Chocolate Morsel Cake
- Yield 12 servings
I have had this recipe for many years. I got the recipe from my mother and it is always a hit with friends and family.
- 1 (18 1/4-ounce) box devil's food cake mix
- 1 (3-ounce) box instant chocolate pudding mix
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 6 ounces chocolate morsels
- 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease and flour a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
- Stir together the cake mix, pudding mix, egg, and milk. (This will be very sticky.) Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle the chocolate morsels evenly over the top. Bake 30 to 35 minutes, until the top springs back to the touch.
- Cool and sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar.
Tips From Our Test Kitchen:
This quick cake also can be made with butterscotch pudding and butterscotch morsels.

Earlier posts in our series on the best apartment towers in River North concentrated on their location. We spotlighted the buildings with the best views, the most convenient grocery shopping, the best access to retail shops, public transit, parks and beaches , the expressway grid, the most nearby dining and nightlife, and the shortest walking distance to the Loop.
We then shifted focus to the buildings themselves, beginning with the topic that's top-of-mind with many renters: affordability.
The newest apartment buildings have been vying to leapfrog each other and the older buildings in their lavish common-area amenities packages. Is there a River North standout?
Our take is that many renters will find AMLI River North and Hubbard Place dueling to a draw in the new building category and not raising the bar more than a small notch or two above older buildings like Kingsbury Plaza, One Superior Place and Grand Plaza, all of which also offer extensive amenities.
Chime in with a comment if you disagree with our view on amenities. This is a highly-competitive category, and we could very well be calling this one wrong.
You'll find links to our objective, visually-rich apartment reviews of River North buildings and links to near real-time availability checks for most of them, at our at-a-glance list, and some tips and advice at our Guide to renting in River North.
Next topic: Boutique ambiance.

Prep roundup: Warriors slug their way past Hawks
Daily Staff Reports -- firstname.lastname@example.com
STEPHENS CITY -- Host Sherando capped off a perfect regular season in Northwestern District play with a 10-0 win over Skyline on Wednesday night in a game that ended in six innings via the mercy rule.
The visiting Hawks had no answer for Warriors starting pitcher Reid Entsminger, who tossed all six innings for Sherando while allowing just one hit and striking out five. Skyline's lone hit came on an infield single by Nick Helmick in the top of the second inning.
Sherando had no such trouble at the plate, as the Warriors banged out 12 hits, including six for extra bases. Chase Smallwood led the charge with a 3-for-4 day, and the junior was a home run away from the cycle while tallying four RBIs.
Senior Jacob Carney was 2-for-3 with a triple and two RBIs, and Carney's single in the first inning was his 111th career hit, a new school record. Matt McCarty -- who graduated from Sherando in 2006 -- previously held the record of 110.
Manassas Park 9, Central 1
MANASSAS -- Visiting Central suffered from some sloppy defensive play as the Falcons fell to Manassas Park, 9-1, in Bull Run District baseball action on Wednesday.
The Falcons (13-6, 9-5 Bull Run) committed four errors in the game and lost a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the fourth as the Cougars struck for four runs to take control. Central managed eight hits against Manassas Park starter Chris Hoffa, with Brady Baker leading the way with two singles.
The loss drops Central to the No. 3 seed in next week's Bull Run District tournament.

[Photography, Barbara Davidson for Los Angeles Times]
Dartmouth College grad (cum laude no less) Betsy Burnham has a style that defies easy classification. She's an unapologetic mixer, liberally layering pattern, texture and periods in most all of her interior design projects. Her background is in fashion — one of her stints was as Head of Studio Services for the GAP where she worked with costume designers placing merchandise into film and television — and I think this sartorial flair shines through in her rooms.
In addition to her high-end projects based in L.A., Burnham offers an alternative online design service, Instant Space, for clients willing to do their own leg-work. Through these long distance endeavors, Burnham and her team of five have learned some tricks that they generously took time to share.
Kelly Galvin Robson, Director of Instant Space, says "One thing I have noticed personally is that all of my Instant Space projects tend to include something black, something Asian, something vintage, and something with animal print. I think that including such classic design motifs in modern ways can keep your room fresh without ever looking dated." If a client seeks a more contemporary look, the Burnham team suggests coordinating curtains with the wall color. This monochromatic approach can make a room seem sleeker.
[Above, before and after of chairs Betsy recently recovered in an ostrich vinyl for her own kitchen; below, a footstool recovered in a vintage fabric remnant.]
In terms of upholstery, Betsy and her colleagues advise looking very carefully at a large sample of the fabric you wish to use. That way, you will get a better sense of the repeat, as small swatches are very limiting. Kelly adds, "Some fabrics always seem to lend themselves to a certain style. For example, tweeds usually come out with a nod to mid-century design, if that is the look you want. We don't really care for tiny prints, they turn out too sweet. Keep the tiny prints for pillows, where we think they belong."
Betsy also loves to railroad stripe fabrics for a fresher look. For example Kelly says, "A horizontally striped sofa is a fresh look on a classic style. Or, drapery with stripes running horizontally can really add some interest."
Have you ever scored a tiny amount of high-end fabric on eBay? Try using it for a lamp shade, a foot stool, a throw pillow, or upholster the backs of your dining chairs.
The Burnham Team on holiday wrapping:
Betsy likes to wrap everything using only two colors; one year Burnham Design wrapped everything in white shiny bags with ivory grosgrain ribbon.
Max, a design assistant, likes to use recycled materials. He tries to incorporate fabric remnants or wallpaper samples.
Rebecca, a project manager, pairs plain butcher paper with fancy ribbon.
Kelly's favorite thing is to wrap everything in two-color graphically printed paper, and use an oversize satin ribbon in a contrasting color. For example, black-and-white printed paper with a giant three-inch green satin ribbon, or cheetah print paper with an oversized red satin ribbon.
Paper shown above available through Kate's Paperie; ribbon is from M & J Trimming.

The Colorado Rockies are in the full swing of their season, and given some of the early developments, I would say that their 5-5 record is just fine, thank you very much. The offense has been particularly enjoyable to watch, so let's enjoy that fact and bask in the glory of this week's Rockies' home runs before the team heads to San Francisco, where home runs
and happiness go to die.
3. Michael Cuddyer picks up where he left off
Cuddyer, pretty much the best guy ever (love him!), has picked up where he left off in 2013. The average, which is sure to regress sometime (right?), sits over .400 ten games into the campaign that follows his first ever batting title. The power is more important in the long run, at least as far as the Rockies are concerned, and so swings like this one are excellent to see.
2. Carlos Gonzalez with a patented CarGo laser
After this shot, shortstop Troy Tulowitzki said he has never seen a ball leave the park so fast. Serious question: was this ball still on its way up? If not, was it on its way down yet? Yeesh.
1. @Chuck_Nazty's blistering hot start to the season
Charlie Blackmon is not just spraying singles all over the yard as he takes hold of the center field and lead-off gigs for the Rockies. He is driving the ball from gap to gap, delivering extra base hits and this home run as part of his historic six-hit day one week ago.
If Blackmon keeps it up on the road, and specifically on a dreaded west coast swing, the man will be my hero.
