When Eastern Washington opens the college football season tomorrow night in Corvallis, the game will have special meaning to Eagle running back Ryan Cole. If you want to know why, read Dave Trimmer's feature from today's paper.
There is more on the game on Dave's EWU blog.
Dave's blog, Glenn Kasses' Cougar blog and Jim Meehan's Vandal blog all have links to the numerous college football stories we ran today in our preview section. But there is one story I wanted to link to myself. It's John Blanchette's piece concernng old/new Idaho coach Dennis Erickson and his connections throughout college football.
As usual, over on the other side of the mountains, there are numerous stories about the Huskies, including this Times' piece on quarterback Isaiah Stanback and Bob Condotta's blog post on Saturday's opponent, San Jose State. Everett also looks at the Spartans.
The best of the rest is Don Ruiz's story in the News Tribune concerning freshman running back Paul Homer.

Driver Brian Vickers leaves health scare in rear-view mirror
BY TINA AKOURIS Sun-Times Media July 20, 2013 7:06PM
Brian Vickers (20) stands next to his car during qualifying for the NASCAR Nationwide auto race at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla., Friday, July 5, 2013.(AP Photo/Phelan M. Ebenhack)
Updated: August 22, 2013 7:03AM
It has been three years since Brian Vickers had to take himself out of a race car after doctors found blood clots in his left leg and lungs. But the emotion of nearly losing his life hasn't left him.
Vickers will race his No. 20 Dollar General Toyota in the STP 300 Nationwide Series race Sunday at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, a week after winning the Sprint Cup Series race in Loudon, N.H., for Michael Waltrip Racing. He is
running a part-time Cup schedule this season.
Besides trying to win the STP 300, Vickers also is entered in NASCAR's Dash for Cash program, in which he can win an
additional $100,000.
''This past week was more than a good week for a lot of reasons,'' said Vickers, who earned the third Cup victory of his career and his first since 2009 at Michigan. ''The win was very special for me and the whole team.''
Through 17 Nationwide races,
Vickers is sixth in the points standings and has seven top-five and nine top-10 finishes. His best
Nationwide finishes were seconds at Dover, Del., and Loudon.
It's a feel-good story, especially when Vickers is reminded of the health scare in 2010 that led him to have heart surgery.
In May 2010, Vickers announced he had to sit out the rest of the
season because doctors found blood clots in his left leg, lungs and a finger. More tests determined Vickers had a hole in his heart, and he had surgery that summer. If Vickers hadn't had the surgery, he could have suffered a stroke.
Vickers' medical issue was something that shook up some of the other drivers, too.
''When Brian got sick and had to get out of the car, we all looked at each other and thought, 'Man, I don't know if we could do that,' '' said Elliott Sadler, the 2012 STP 300 champion. ''We appreciated Brian taking care of himself first and going through the steps to come back and be a winner on the Cup series. People don't understand what that takes. He's been through one hell of a road.''
Vickers wouldn't use the word ''vindication'' to describe his victory last week. He seems more grateful than anything.
''It was [about] enjoying the moment,'' Vickers said. ''I'm very thankful and blessed to have the opportunity to get back into a race car and race again. Period.''

Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has urged the All Progressives Congress, APC, to put an end to the culture of imposition of candidates in order to be ahead of the competition.
This formed part of his remarks at the inaugural Progressive Governors-Legislative-Civil Society Roundtable in Abuja, on Monday.
The roundtable was tagged 'Improving Governance through transparent budgeting, accountability and effective public financial management.'
Okorocha, who is chairman of the PGF, comprising all the governors of the 16 APC-controlled states in the country, said he was aligning himself to comments made by a previous speaker to the effect that 2015 general election was for the opposition party to win or lose.
According to him, the outcome of the recent public opinion polls conducted by APC's foreign consultant is a true reflection of what is on ground, noting that for the APC to form the government in 2015, it must seek to stand out from the pack.
Okorocha said, "Our victory is in our hands, it is left for us to make it or mar it but I believe we can make it. I believe that this issue of imposition of candidates must stop in APC and that is the only way.
"The masses know us better, when they say this is the candidate that can win the election he is the candidate let there be liberal democracy.
"If we keep doing the same old things the same old way, we will get the very same results".
Speaking also at the roundtable, Senator Olusola Adeyeye, said when the APC forms the government at the centre, it would reintroduce tolls along major highways to generate the required revenue to maintain the roads.
He explained that just as the government had responsibility to the people, the people equally had civic responsibilities to perform.
While making a case for true federalism, he said states must be allowed to develop at their own pace.
"Why must the governor of the oil rich Rivers and the revenue rich Lagos, earn the same salary and allowances with the governors of Osun and Gombe?" he asked.
Adeyeye also charged Nigerians to rise and take ownership of their country and government. This partnership, he explained, would ensure progress for the nation.
He said it was no longer the norm in most parts of the world to leave everything to the government alone because there were contending needs to be met, especially in the area of infrastructural development.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Gary Locke is pushing for Chinese currency changes and a business environment that allows Americans to compete with Chinese companies and invest without hindrance.
Locke spoke Wednesday ahead of an appearance by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao. Locke described U.S. "concerns about ensuring market based adjustments to exchange rates."
The United States says Beijing's tightly regulated yuan is undervalued, giving China's exporters an artificial advantage over U.S. manufacturers.
Many in the United States are also worried about a U.S. trade deficit with China that jumped to $26.2 billion in June.
Locke spoke of a "worldwide rebalancing" where "America buys a little less and sells a little more to China."

John Westlake says:
It's a technique that could revolutionise your road riding. Honestly it's that useful. Its based on the idea that you can tell whether a corner is going to tighten up or open up based on the movement of just one point called the vanishing point.
This is where, as you look into the corner, the two sides of the road (or...

In my opinion trying to do this in the real world will have you dead or riding at 20mph. The vanishing point is a huge distraction and a very minor indicator as to where the road goes. You can normally see many other clues way before there is any significant change in the vanishing point. Trees, houses, other cars etc. A hairpin and a sweeper all look the same from 100m away. Even midcorner there are so many things happening that keeping track on where the vanishing point is, is next to impossible and is nothing but a distraction form actually looking ahead PAST the vanishing point.

White chocolate for something a little different, paired with Kirsch and Amaretto - unforgettable!
Melt the white chocolate over a bain marie and add half the kirsch. Whisk in the cold cream.
Mix the mascarpone with the Amaretto very gently until soft. Place to one side.
Split the vanilla pod in half and add to the strawberries and raspberries in a hot pan and flambé with the rest of the kirsch. Caramelise with the sugar.
Pour into a bowl and allow to cool. Reserve to one side.
Layer the mixtures into a glass starting with the mascarpone, followed by the strawberries and raspberries on the top and then the white chocolate mixture.
Leave to set in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
Sprinkle cocoa powder and icing sugar on top and serve with sliced strawberry.
» Metric Converter
Fortified Wines, Dessert Wines and Sparkling Reds are the best wines to pair with White chocolate and kirsch mousse.

Corona, CA
Even though most people tend to use their cars to get around Corona, public transportation is certainly available. For errands and fun in the immediate area, the Riverside Transit Agency provides bus services for the city and its neighbors to the east. When traveling west, the Metrolink commuter rail connects Corona to Los Angeles and beyond. The city is also home to plenty of bike routes if cycling is your preferred mode of transportation. While Corona does have a municipal airport, international travel is easy with the Ontario International Airport less than a half an hour north of the city.

Back in the day, Corona was the Lemon Capital of the World. The lemons may be gone but the community still embraces its sour history. The Corona Heritage Park and Museum sits on a 5 acre slice of the site that used to be The Corona Foothill Lemon Company, the largest lemon ranch in California.

Corona has been working on becoming greener and they've made some great strides. In an effort to reduce energy costs and lower its carbon footprint, Corona has boosted its recycling efforts, encouraged residents to dispose of hazardous household waste properly, and offered rebates and incentive programs for residents who choose to purchase energy efficient appliances and automobiles.

Looking for an outlet for all that pent up musical energy? Kids and adults can rock out at the Fender Museum, which offers guitar, piano, drum, and voice lessons. The museum also has some fun events going on, so keep an eye on their calendar.

Warning: The following is me venting. If you don't like to read someone venting their feelings about what is going wrong in their life, then please stop reading now.
Anyone who doesn't know what gastroparesis is, my stomach empties too slowly, so I must have a low fat, low fiber diet. If I eat incorrectly for even 1 day I can get really sick. I also have GERD and have been treated for eosinophilic esophagitis - which closes off your esophagus - but it could, and probably will, come back at any time without warning. I am about 10-15 lbs above being underweight but I keep losing weight because I can't get my body to accept enough food. (To those trying to lose weight, I'm sorry if this upsets you. But having your own body starve you is not good, not fun, and not something you should hold against me.)
Things that have been said to me since I was diagnosed with gastroparesis:
*My sister: No wonder you can't get a boyfriend, you burp like you're throwing up all the time. It is disgusting.
*What I tried to tell her that she ignored: My burping is because of my gastroparesis and GERD. If I don't burp, I will get a severe stomachache or throw up. You only have to see me for a few hours at a time, twice a year. I'm sorry that even that is too much for you to handle.
*My mother: You're on a low fat, low fiber diet, right? So here's a bunch of snacks you can have. There isn't any fat or fiber so you can have as much as you want. (She gives me several huge bags of junk food and fully expects me to eat them all in a few hours.)
*What she refused to hear: A low fat, low fiber diet does not mean I should just eat everything that doesn't have fat or fiber. Eating lots of simple carbs will make me feel tired and worthless. I have to have some fat with every meal, and some fiber every day. I just have to have them within a goal range. That is why I am tracking my food so closely. Please don't force junk food on me to make you feel better.
*A new coworker: So many people at my gym are just lazy. They definitely don't work out to exhaustion. I burn 200 calories in 6 minutes; you burning 200 calories in a half hour is a joke. I'm borderline obese but I'm eating Subway and Jimmy Johns now instead of McDonalds or Burger King so I'm going to lose weight. I am too busy to cook, and cooking for one person is not worth it. So hey, why don't you come out for happy hour and eat wings?
*What he is not getting: Everyone has different fitness levels. Working out to exhaustion is not a good thing. Burning 200 calories in 6 minutes is seriously doubtful. When I can barely get 1500-1800 cals/day, burning 200 is probably more than I should be doing. And Subway and Jimmy Johns have many really bad choices - which happens to be the things you appear to be choosing. And offering to buy me drinks is not the way to get my attention.
*What a 'friend' told me: She doesn't want to deal with my sickness anymore. It is my problem and she is sick of hearing about it. Why am I working out if I can't eat enough? I should eat a bunch of foods at night that are nothing but carbs so I can get more calories... because I'm lucky that I can eat as many carbs as I want.
*What I'm too angry to tell her right now: I have always done my best to be around when you need someone to talk to and support you. I have stuck my neck out and trusted you, believing you would be there for me when I need someone. But it seems you're there when it suits you, not when I need you. I hoped you would support me, but I'm not seeing it. What I am seeing is that you are too busy waiting for the mirror to say you are the most beautiful woman in the kingdom, and ignoring me when I tell you that every time I see you. Don't blame me for you feeling negativity when you throw it at yourself every day. But strange thing, I don't remember you turning it around and saying I'm beautiful, intelligent, kind, etc. Instead, you make it clearly obvious that you are jealous of me losing a lot of weight very quickly without trying. Apparently you are not getting the fact that my digestive system completely shut down and I was unable to eat more than 400 cals every 2-3 days for a month. I've been told I should not have lived through it. If you are that desperate to be thin, give it a try and see how you feel.
*What she needs to hear: You have said that you push people away, but then you are upset when they are gone. You say you want to know what people think about you so you can change, but you just get pissed off and hold it against them later. And remember a few months ago when you threw a fit because no one would go to an event with you? I was trying to support you by saying that you should go by yourself and see that you have the ability to be independent and not expect others to make you happy. You got seriously pissed off at that, chewed me out, then refused to speak to me for days. Again, don't blame your negativity on me when I have tried to support you and help you! Telling me that I cause us to get into pissing matches about who's life is worse is crap. When I try to come to you for support, you have to one-up me every time. I try to refocus so I can get the support I need and you turn it right back onto you! Plus, this whole thing about saying you can't deal with my sickness, blaming me for making you feel negative, and then saying it is up to me to decide if I want to fix myself and continue to be your friend is completely wrong. Maybe I shouldn't deal with the fact that you are constantly putting yourself out there to get attention from men, just so you can get pissed that the wrong ones are hitting on you or that you aren't getting drinks handed to you from every guy in the bar. Maybe I shouldn't deal with the fact that you are too self-centered to have shown even an ounce of concern that I should have died, let alone taking 5 minutes to learn the tiniest bit about what I'm going through.
In the past week, I have gotten the coworker and 'friend' comments. My therapist cancelled on me after I already couldn't get an appointment for 3 weeks. My masseuse cancelled on me. I've had people try to force me off the interstate (which is a common occurrence but still scary as hell) and nearly caused me to crash. I got a notice in the mail that I am required to go to a city meeting and set up a house inspection for sewer problems - which is going to cost me a hell of a lot of money to fix, if a fix is even possible. I end up spending 20-60 minutes every night cleaning snow off my driveway and sidewalk in single degree to 20 degree temperatures, and almost every time lose the feeling in my hands, feet, and legs for an hour after I'm done. I can never seem to get warm because I'm losing my body fat so I can't regulate my body temperature. My car is starting to show signs that I will have to replace it soon (which I absolutely can't afford). When I eat some foods that should fit into my gastroparesis diet my body is reacting badly to them and I end up in a lot of pain, so now I'm getting scared to eat again. I really want to exercise, but I can't do much because I don't have enough calories to burn.
The fact that I have no support from my family or friends is incredibly painful. It reminds me how many people believe I am less than human or have made it clear they believe the world would be better if I was dead. It reminds me why I end up in massive shame spirals and have no self-esteem. Then I start asking the question "why am I never good enough for anyone to care about... let alone love?"
I have a rant I really want to toss out, but I'm so upset right now that I'm afraid my raw emotions will offend a few people. Which I probably shouldn't worry about, since my rant is about how I feel offended. Still, I think I want to hold off posting this rant until I have had time to calm down, write it out, then chop it down to what I really want to say.
So for now I will toss this out: before you judge someone based on your own beliefs and what might be true for you, close your mouth, close your eyes, and imagine everything that could be different for the person you want to judge. You don't know their situation and their life, so don't blame them for what you don't like about them - it might not be their fault.
One thing that annoys me is how easily misperceptions happen. Some people believe they know me and know what I'm about. Their perceptions are so misconstrued that even if I tell them the truth, they refuse to believe me.
For instance, some people want to believe that I'm this crazy health nut - they refuse to believe that if I don't follow a low fiber and low fat diet, it can kill me. They hear I've lost over 25lbs in the past year and refuse to believe that it happened without me wanting to and without trying... my digestive system shut down and I was unable to even swallow water some days. When I try to explain my diagnoses (gastroparesis, GERD, and eosinophilic esophagitis) they tend to tune out because they see it as unbelievable or too much to take in... try having to live through it. Having health problems starve you, desperately wanting to eat anything, everything, something, can destroy everything you believe in.
Then there are plenty of guys who can't see the real me. Some think I'm easy then get mad when they find themselves to be wrong. Some think I'm a prude then are pissed if they see me talking to another guy. Then there is the one who seemed to believe I was happy being completely independent since I've done it so long. Also too many figure if I can be completely independent, then they may as well live off me and make me support them.
So when did I lose the ability to show who I am? Or did I ever have the ability in the first place? Then again, do I even know who I am?
I am forced to be independent because no one has been willing to step into my life to be there when I really need it. No one has loved me the way I need to be loved. And I can't hibernate in my life waiting for someone else to move my life forward - so I must move myself forward. But I hate being forced to be independent. I want someone to lean on. I want someone to count on. I want someone else who will clean the massive amounts of snow off the sidewalk so I don't have to.
I am as healthy as I can be at this moment. GP is difficult to figure out, and sometimes it seems to act up for no reason. I am better than I have been in a long time, possibly ever. I am doing my best to figure this out and work with my body, not against it. I want someone who will support my GP diet and life, knowing this is what I must do to live. I want to be around others who choose to be healthy... or at least won't try to force bad choices on me.
I am doing what I can to make my life better, and to attempt to have the things I want most out of life: a loving family and a nice home. I can't force it to happen, but I can try for it and hope it will happen. I want to find a guy to share these hopes and wishes with.
So I have an idea of who I am and what I want, but using who I am to find what I want isn't working well. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what else to do.

Originating from leprechaun rectums in south ireland, bum fluff is the fibres of sweaty underwear that sticks to the scrotum and "Batty criece" when a respectable amount of sweat has been produced that day. On a hot day, people may be seen pulling their underwear out of the arse with their hands, this usually occurs when bum fluff is present.

What to make for a simple, midwestern guy?
I'm a bi-coastal girl with exotic tastes and a preference for ethnic and very healthy cuisine. Any suggestions for what to make for a self-proclaimed "simple, Midwestern guy"? He likes burgers and eats a lot (too much) fast food ... what can I make that will show him that home cooking can be delicious? I'd like to avoid frying since I don't have a deep fryer. I'm leaning toward traditional "comfort" food ... though I'm not entirely sure what that means ... since my comfort food is sushi!!!
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
re: porceluna
I think this is a great idea. Push the envelope just a bit. Baked potato with "the works", steakhouse style. Maybe some glazed baby carrots or little onions if he hates greens, but I'll bet he wouldn't object to a simple green salad, with ranch dressing of course. The only thing you will have gussied up in the steak, and he probably will love that.
meat loaf and garlic mashed potatoes? would be comforting to me just about now!
braised short ribs with pappardelle.
Oh dear, good luck with that. I think maybe a steak, or roast chicken and baked potato or mac and cheese. Avoid green garnishes. A homemade dessert. He probably won't eat any vegetables. Avoid seasonings of any type other than salt and pepper.
I'd probably stick with beer for the beverage. They tend not to drink red wine, or any wine for that matter.
Definitely no salads or broccoli.
The only exception to the above is if he's from Chicago. Then you might be able to get slightly more exotic.
Now lest you all think I am making this up, I dated a guy from Cleveland who always insisted "nothing green on the plate".
re: mlgb
Begging your pardon, Miss, but this here smalltown Midwestern downstate Illinois kid grew up eating lots and lots of great salads and fresh green vegetables, as did most of the folks I knew. I imagine city kids were different - pity, that - but we and most of our neighbors had a backyard garden every year, and actually planted something besides tomatoes. My mom's German-style wilted lettuce was deliriously good, and since it required leaf lettuce, which Kroger seldom carried, we always grew at least one row of that...and summer sandwiches and potato salads always came with a leaf or two.
If he's not a fresh-greens kind of guy, of course, you could always feed him some slow-cooked green beans with bacon and onion, simmered until almost too tender. That'll melt most Midwesterners I know...and they go with everything from pork chops to roast chicken to fish.
There's loads of Midwestern foods that aren't fried.
A good pot roast with lots of veggies
Swiss steak (braised round steak with tomatoes & onions or onions & mushrooms)
Most French daubes would appeal to Midwestern tastes
Roast chicken, as everyone else says (roast some lemons alongside to squeeze over the chicken, for you if not for him)
Spaghetti & meatballs
Spaghetti Bolognese
Pork chops (a million ways)
Check out one of the old versions of the Betty Crocker cookbook, before they started calling for so many canned foods. They have a lot of good, solid recipes.
Gee, I dunno... us yokels like us some boiled chicken and maybe some hamburgers, hyuck hyuck.
In all seriousness, I don't know what this guy's individual tastes are (emphasis on individual), but having spent half of my adult life in Los Angeles and half in the Midwest, the "Midwestern palate" is one of the most tired, condescending, insulting myths out there. Speaking like this, all you people are doing is putting your own ignorance on display.
Please, this guy eats burgers and too much fast food because he is a single guy, not because he is from the mid-west, like Calvin Trillan. Just cook good grub and watch it inhaled. You betcha.
Relax, your uptight like a bi-coastal girl.
You seemed to have touched some raw nerves on the whole stereotyping thing... but if he's a SELF-PROCLAIMED simple, mid-Western guy and there's obviously a stereotype to personify that... why would you ignore it and try to cater otherwise?
To me, you're looking at something like chicken pot pie, braised beef (stew, pot roast etc.), country-fried steak with potatoes, corn, coleslaw and maybe, maybe, green bean casserole. Any of those dishes are delicious as home cooking. In fact, they're best that way, and traditional comfort food.
If you're looking for an introduction to more exotic cuisine, try making something like braised veal shanks with potato dumplings with maybe bits of celeriac and sweet corn or something. That way it's familiar (pasta/potatoes with stew, basically) but when you tell him it was osso bucco with potato gnocchi and a celeriac and sweet corn puree and that a lot of "exotic" foods can be simple and delicious like that, just with fancy names, he might be more willing to open up to different ideas in the future. Perhaps I'm assuming too much about relationship status here though :)
re: afoodyear
"You seemed to have touched some raw nerves on the whole stereotyping thing... but if he's a SELF-PROCLAIMED simple, mid-Western guy and there's obviously a stereotype to personify that... why would you ignore it and try to cater otherwise?"
I'm not suggesting that at all, afoodyear. And my comments weren't directed towards the OP, but rather the follow-up posters who implied or outright stated condescending sweeping generalizations about millions of people in hundreds of diverse cities strewn throughout most of the country.
I absolutely agree, if this fellow's tastes run towards simple comfort foods, that's what the OP should make. But to go from "this guy I know in Cleveland doesn't eat vegetables" to "people in the Midwest don't like any seasoning other than salt and pepper and don't drink wine" is downright insulting, not to mention idiotic. That's as far out in left field as saying that you shouldn't cook any animal products for somebody from the West Coast because they're all vegans and Buddhists out there. It's so incredibly ignorant that it almost goes right past insulting and straight into funny.
re: Dmnkly
Alright, fair enough :)
re: Dmnkly
Umm, it was supposed to be funny, but obviously SOME Midwesterners are also lacking in senses of humor. Tsk tsk.
re: mlgb
mlgb, believe me, I'd like to assume something on that level is a joke and take it as such, but you'd be shocked by the number of times I've seen as bad or worse delivered with the utmost sincerity.
My sense of humor is tuned just fine, thanks, but satire is generally dependent on being at least somewhat distinguishable from reality :-)
re: afoodyear
Yeah, apparently I've accidentally hit a nerve. Not my intention. Having not spent any significant time outside of CA and NY I was mostly looking for suggestions about traditional comfort food.
Thanks for the suggestions of meat and potatoes variations. Perhaps I'll try a meatloaf or steak with garlic mashed.
Apologies to anyone that took my classification as a judgment call, it wasn't that at all. He calls himself simple, midwestern so I thought that was the most accurate descriptor, though perhaps it was overly general.
Thanks again for the suggestions.
re: KrazyB
No worries, Krazy... like I say, my comments weren't really directed towards you. The guy clearly self-identifies that way, and the point is taken -- he's a simple meat and potatoes guy. It's drawing that individual preference into broader generalizations about the Midwest that's ridiculous :-)
re: Dmnkly
You are very good. The best steak I've every eaten was in the Amana Colonies of Iowa, mid-midwestern, this soundst like a meat loaf and mashed kinda guy. Howabout hot dish?
I am from the Canadian equivalent of midwestern, and I am not in the least offended by the descriptor 'simple'. Think of it as 'uncomplicated'. There are some really nice 'meat and potatoes' ideas here but I also like the comments on veggies. We ate tons of veggies - fresh from the garden. I think he just means less fuss, good quality, focus on the '100 Mile Diet' type of stuff rather than the exotics - which are becoming less interesting the more I cook. If I want exotics, I think I would like them in their milieu.
underestimate and you'll get what you ask for...
check out the "cooking for him for the first time" thread
re: hill food
Ooooh, thanks for that link! Lots of good advice!!
I married a man like that -- his mother's cooking was awful! Roast beef until well done, microwave some canned peas with mashed potatoes (w/ no butter!). Plain, dull.
And I'm a cook. So when he moved in w/ me I got off my mostly vegetarian/Indian/ethnic lentil kick and . . . it was sauteed veal chops w/ a pan sauce, potato gratin, sauteed greens. He didn't dive into the greens, but ate some. Roasted pork tenderloin w/ apple cream sauce. Grilled spiced rib eye over arugula (that wilts under the steak), beef stew, roast chicken. You get the idea -- meat-based, yes, but with taste and flavor.
The chicken fried steak thread makes me think that would be a good choice for you. With some cream gravy, good mashed potatoes and a green veggie, I'd bet he'll be in heaven.
okay others have touched on the perils of gross regional stereotyping, saving me a bit of grief--
where in the incredibly broad expanse of "midwest" is the gentleman from? missouri, minnesota?? ohio, nebraska? is he urban midwestern, from chicago, cleveland, madison, kansas city? or is he from population 200, nebraska, or 50 miles north of pierre south dakota? did he grow up on a farm, in a metropolis, or suburbialand? why has he never eaten in a "home" before, or is there some reason why he would not believe that "home cooking *can* be delicious?"-- has he lived in a tent, or a 1970's van equipped only with a deep fryer for cooking his whole life? why is the op's assumption that every person in the midwest is homeless and transient, and has never had a garden, visited a farmer's market, eaten a vegetable? has the gentleman in fact done none of these things?
why does the op want to cook for someone she obviously condescends to? any chef will tell you that food cooked from the spleen rather than the heart will taste remarkably bitter and will nourish neither body nor soul. in short no worthwhile relationship will result from such a meal-- there is no need for the op to waste any mental or physical effort on it.
re: soupkitten
Good call soupkitten! My midwest experience is pretty much the exact opposite of what the OP describes. I really did grow up about 50 miles north of Pierre, SD in a home with a kitchen(was that a random location or are you familar with the area?) and the nearest fast food restaurant was 50 miles away, in Pierre. I grew up eating like a locavore-- vegetables from the garden, meat came from pigs and cows grown by my uncle and butchered by our neighbor etc. The vast majority of our meals were home cooked because there weren't too many other options.
I would agree with the poster above who said this guy's love for fast food has far more to do with being a single guy and much less to do with his Midwest upbringing.

For Related Articles and More Information, Please Visit OCA's All About Organics Page and our Myth of Natural Page.
These days, a trip to the grocery store can be overwhelming. Do you buy organic? Or are all-natural products just as good? What about chemical free?
The Food and Drug Administration has taken some steps to make food labeling clearer, but it's easy to get misled by product labels. To become a more informed shopper, experts recommend doing research to learn what different terms and claims mean so you can better read labels while shopping.
To be labeled organic and bear the USDA certified organic seal, food and other products must be certified by a third-party agency that uses standards overseen by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, experts say.
What's more, whether it's a manufacturer or a farmer seeking the seal, the three-year transition to organic and the attainment of the USDA certification seal is rigorous. Use of toxic pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, antibiotics, synthetic hormones, genetic engineering and sewage sludge are prohibited, explains Janie Hoffman, founder and CEO of food company MammaChia and author of Chia Vitality.
But there is no standard for the natural label. A grower or manufacturer could include some or all of the components banned in organic products in an item and still stick 'natural' on the label, claims Alexis Baden-Mayer, political director of the Organic Consumers Organization.
The "natural" standards vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, adds Urvashi Rangan, executive director of food safety and sustainability at Consumer Reports. Products may contain a Natural Products Association (NPA) label but growers and manufacturers all do things a little differently.

Farming in drought added to annual organic farming conference topics
Drought is the big topic on the minds of agricultural producers, and it will be the hot topic at this year's New Mexico Organic Farming Conference, Feb. 14 to 15, at the Marriott Albuquerque Pyramid North Hotel, 5151 San Francisco Road NE, in Albuquerque, N.M.
"This is the largest and most diverse agriculture conference held in New Mexico," said Joanie Quinn, New Mexico Department of Agriculture's organic commodity adviser and conference coordinator. The event is organized by New Mexico State University's Cooperative Extension Service, NMDA and Farm to Table.
Traditional agricultural producers will find plenty of useful information at the conference, as well.
"The information that is presented is vital to any producers," she said. "Most of those attending the conference are not organic certified."
Farming in drought will be a new category of topic among the 36 sessions.
"Record rainfall in September brought most areas of New Mexico nearly up to normal annual precipitation levels, and greened up the rangeland," Quinn said. "However, the rain came so fast and hard that much of it ran off. Acequias were damaged and fields were buried in sediment. Without good snowpack this winter, we face exceptional irrigation shortages in 2014."
Keynote speaker Margaret Hiza Redsteer will bring years of observation and study along with the best and latest science to bear on what can be expected in the future and how it will affect farmers and ranchers in the Southwest. Her speech will open the conference on the morning of Feb. 14.
Other drought topics will include:
Managing soil salinity, presented by organic soil guru Ron Godin of Colorado State University;
Water harvesting for farmers, presented by Billy Kniffen, Texas AgriLife Extension's retired water resource specialist;
Grazing management in times of drought, presented by Frank Aragona, director of programs at Holistic Management International;
Understanding your water rights, presented by presented by a representative of the Office of the State Engineer; and
Land restoration, presented by Mollie Walton, a restoration ecologist at Quivira Coalition.
"We have some amazing presenters this year, including Gary Paul Nabhan, author of 26 books, including 'Growing Food in a Hotter, Drier Land,' 'Chasing Chiles,' and 'Renewing America's Food Traditions,' and Helen Atthowe, author of 'Reduced Tillage in Organic Vegetable Production: Success, Challenges,' and a series of videos,'New Directions Conservation Farming and Agroecology.'"
Atthowe will present a session the afternoon of Feb. 14 titled "Reduced Tillage, Ecological Weed Management." Nabhan will present a session the morning of Feb. 15 titled "Tapping Into the Wisdom of the Desert: Sustainably Growing Food in the Face of Climate Change and Water Scarcity."
Three new alternative crops will be discussed during Feb. 14 session titled "Teff, Guar, Hops" where Leonard Lauriault and Kulbhushan Grover of NMSU and Beth LaShell of Fort Lewis College will discuss crops that could be in growers' future.
Other NMSU College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences Extension specialists and researchers presenting session include Bill Lindemann, Sam Smallidge, Carol Sutherland, Marcy Ward, John Idowu and Tess Grasswitz.
The conference will begin each day with registration at 7:30 a.m. Registration for both days will be $100 a person, and for single day entrance, $65. Early registration may be done online at www.farmtotablenm.org.
Date: 1/27/2014

Euro 2012: England and Rooney, together
June, 19, 2012
By Patrick Dorsey | ESPN.com
Laurence Griffiths/Getty ImagesWayne Rooney is ready to make his major tournament return for England, against Ukraine.UEFA Euro 2012, one of soccer's top international competitions, is here. To celebrate, Playbook has teamed up with ESPN FC and the World Cup on ESPN Facebook page to offer sights and other delights from each participating nation.
He's back. After a two-match ban, England's main man Wayne Rooney returned to the pitch Tuesday for the Three Lions' third game of Euro 2012.
And although Rooney's major tournament record has often ended in disappointment, it's hard to deny the history he shares with his home nation since first putting on the England red way back in 2002.
Just look at Tuesday's match. The 1-0 win over Ukraine brought another lasting image of Rooney wearing England colors -- one of many he's made over the years:
Phil Cole/Getty ImagesRooney made his England debut on Feb. 12, 2003. At the time he was the youngest ever (17).
Drian Dennis/AFP/Getty ImagesLater that year Rooney showed his scoring ability, as he did on this goal vs. Denmark in a friendly.
Getty ImagesHere it is, from another angle.
Paul Barker/AFP/Getty ImagesAnd the celebration.
Shaun Botterill/Getty Images... And the celebration continued into Euro 2004, where he became (briefly) the event's youngest scorer after netting twice against Switzerland.
Ross Kinnaird/Getty ImagesRooney would net two more goals against Croatia, leaving him one shy of being the tournament's top scorer. But a knockout loss to host Portugal started England down a difficult road.
Jamie McDonald/Getty ImagesIt included struggles at World Cup 2006 and missing Euro 2008 entirely. And it left Rooney wanting.
Carl De Souza/AFP/Getty ImagesWorld Cup 2010 had Rooney and England thinking redemption -- and maybe the trophy itself.
Liu Jin/AFP/Getty ImagesBut Rooney's tournament wasn't a flourishing one, although he scrapped against Slovenia ...
Hoang Dinh Nam/AFP/Getty Images... and the USA ...
Pierre-Philippe Marcou/AFP/Getty Images... only to be surrounded by the superior Germans in the knockout stage.
Stephane Mantey/Presse Sports/US PresswireNaturally, England's 4-1 elimination loss to Germany left Rooney dejected.
Laurence Griffiths/Getty ImagesRooney & Co. fought back during qualifications for Euro 2012, determined not to miss this time.
Michael Regan/Getty ImagesBut Rooney's temper got the better of him, and this red card vs. Montenegro earned him a ban.
Carl de Souza/AFP/Getty ImagesSo Rooney had to stay on the sideline while England drew with France and escaped vs. Sweden.
Michael Regan/Getty ImagesThere's little doubt, though, that after a strong 2011-12 club season Rooney is ready.
Michael Regan/The FA/Getty ImagesEngland on Tuesday handed the ball over to their top striker. And then ...
Carl de Souza/AFP/Getty Images... Rooney's goal against Ukraine helped England top the group. Is bigger Euro glory next?
