An Easy Burger Recipe Made on the Breakfast Sandwich Maker
Today I'm bringing you an easy burger recipe cooked up on the Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker and a chance to win a Breakfast Sandwich Maker of your own. Click here to skip ahead to the recipe and click here to skip ahead to enter the giveaway.
Back when The Hubs and I were first together, way before kids, we'd lay in bed on Sunday morning and imaging a machine that would cook breakfast for us while we dozed.
What we had in mind was like a programmable coffee maker but for breakfast. It would be a refrigerated unit to which you add raw bacon, a cracked egg and some bread before going to sleep.
And then, just like on the days when mother's visiting, you wake to the memory-tugging meaty maple smells of bacon frying, and you know that it is going to be a great day.
We always thought that the breakfast machine of our dreams was light years away. But something has made it seem closer…
While at BlogHer Food in Austin a couple months ago, I had the opportunity to taste a sandwich made on the Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker. The breakfast sandwich was really good but I honestly wondered who needed an extra contraption like this in their kitchen.
I mean, why not just use a frying pan?
But then they sent me a Breakfast Sandwich Maker.
And I used it.
And I used it again.
And again.
And I was in love.
Seriously, this machine takes seconds to load up with breakfast ingredients. Then you can go check your email and, moments later breakfast is served. You have to make one sandwich at a time but I've found that with everyone running around in the morning anyhow, it usually works out (although I am tempted to buy a second machine so that I can have two sandwiches going at once!).
I love this gadget so much that I've experimented with it for lunch and dinner. What I'm sharing today is an easy burger recipe made on the Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker.
This is the perfect easy burger recipe to roll out on a weeknight when everyone is in a hurry and is eating at different times.
You make sure to have the burger patties cooked up and then you make everyone their own burger as needed, each one ready in moments.
I've experimented with different kinds of breads and buns. The Breakfast Sandwich Maker works best with English muffins and other very flat breads (pita cut into rounds, regular sliced bread cut into rounds, thin bagels, etc.). If the bread (or bun) is too thick it becomes hard to close the machine and sometimes the top and bottom of the bun will burn.
I've therefore used Whole Wheat English muffins for this burger recipe.
What else is in this easy burger recipe?
There's melty cheese and, get this, the level of the Breakfast Sandwich Maker that is usually used to cook the egg is instead used to lightly sauté some mushrooms and spinach. Tasty, healthy and quick. What more could you ask for on a busy weeknight?
If you love this burger recipe and the idea of a Breakfast Sandwich Maker, guess what? Hamilton Beach has given me one to giveaway to a lucky reader. Scroll down and enter to win using the rafflecopter below.
And now onto the easy burger recipe using the Breakfast Sandwich Maker.
- 1 cup packed baby spinach leaves
- 1 portobello mushroom, sliced
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 4 English muffins, split
- 2 tsp. mustard
- 2 tsp. mayonnaise
- 4 (1/2 oz.) slices Swiss cheese
- 4 (2 oz.) fully cooked burger patties
- Preheat the Breakfast Sandwich Machine as instructed in the manual.
- In a medium bowl combine the spinach, mushroom and olive oil. Set aside.
- Divide the mustard among the 4 English muffin bottoms and spread it on. Divide the mayonnaise between the muffin tops and spread it on.
- Put a muffin bottom into the lowest level of the breakfast machine maker. Top it with one slice of the cheese and then the cooked burger patty. Slide the cooking plate into place and put ¼ of the spinach mixture onto the plate. Top with the muffin top and close the machine. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until the burger is warmed through and the cheese is melted. Slide the cooking plate out (causeing the spinach and mushrooms to fall onto hte burger patty. Open the machine and use a spatula to remove the burger.
- Repeat step 4 with the remaining ingredients.
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Disclosure: Hamilton Beach gave me a Breakfast Sandwich Maker to review and they have given the one that I am using for a giveaway in this post. They have not paid me. All opinions are my own.

Bono, designers to raise AIDS funds at NYC auctionSeptember 9, 2013 @ 1:02 pm
NEW YORK (AP) - The design and music worlds are coming together to help fight AIDS in Africa.
Apple Inc. chief designer Jonathan Ive and industrial designer Marc Newson are collaborating with rocker Bono. They're producing 40 original designs to benefit The Global Fund.
The event is called the (RED) auction. It's scheduled for Nov. 23 at Sotheby's New York.
The highlights include a Leica (LY'-kuh) digital rangefinder camera and a Neal Feay (fay) Studios aluminum desk.
Other items include a customized white and red Steinway parlor grand piano and a 2012 Range Rover.
There's also a one-of-a kind pair of Apple EarPods in solid rose gold.
Sotheby's will exhibit the items from Nov. 18-22.
Bono founded the (RED) charity in 2006 to raise funds to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.

Out with the old, in with the new! Back in August, word got out that YouTube would be cutting funding to some of the less successful new channels that they had invested in as part of their original channels initiative. It looks like the time has come to weed out the channels that aren't performing as well. Over the next few weeks, 30 − 40 percent of the original channels will be notified of continued funding, while the rest will, as Michael Learmonth of Ad Age puts it, "quietly go away."

YouTube Goes Global With Original Content, Launches 60 New Channels
Since YouTube invested in and began rolling out a slew of nearly 100 new content channels last year, viewers and analysts have been trying to determine whether or not the new original content initiative has been a success. In a post that went up on the YouTube blog last night, Global Head of Content Robert Kyncl reveals not only that the new original channels are thriving, but also that YouTube is preparing to go global with the initiative, launching 60 new channels in France, Germany, the UK and the US.
YouTube's Original Channels May Be Doing Better Than You Think
When YouTube announced their foray into original content nearly a year ago, nobody was sure what to expect. What would the channels and content be like? How would they perform? Nine months after the first original channels hit the video sharing site, YouTube Head of Content Strategy Jamie Byrne reports that the original channels are on par to be "the next great media brands."
YouTube To Cut Funding For Less Successful New Original Channels
This year YouTube has invested in and rolled out around 100 new original content channels. It's no surprise that some of the new original channels have fared better than others, and YouTube is preparing to weed out some of the channels that aren't performing so well and invest their money in new, more successful content.

Mark Stevens biography and facts
Mark Stevens (born 25 October 1975) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League. Stevens debuted at the North Melbourne Football Club in 1995 and his preferred position was centre half-forward. Stevens struggled with the pace of AFL football in his early years at the Kangaroos. That, combined with the fact that the Kangaroos had Wayne Carey, arguably one of the finest players of all time, at centre half-forward, meant that Stevens struggled to cement a place in the side. He was traded to the Adelaide Football Club at the end of 1997 (for Jason McCartney). Steven's first year at the Crows saw him play in a Premiership side, defeating his former team mates at North Melbourne at the MCG. Over his career with Adelaide, Stevens improved and became a damaging player, consistently taking strong marks on the half-forward line for the Crows. His career came to an end early in the 2005 season, when injury finally took its toll on Stevens, forcing his retirement. Stevens continued playing in North Gippsland (Vic) before joining South Yarra FC (Southern Football League) in 2010.  ( Wikipedia )

The obligatory FGC post [Women and Violence, Part 6]
[This is part of my series on Women and Violence, which I am writing as a project for a Women Studies course I'm taking. For an explanation and information on my intentions with this series, please see the introduction.]
Yesterday some of my classmates gave a presentation about female genital cutting (though the terminology they used, and which is probably more familiar to people, is "female genital mutilation" – a difference which I'll address later on). It's an important, worthwhile issue, and I'm glad our class is addressing it.
Still, every time the topic comes up in conversation I cringe inwardly. Continue reading

The violence beneath 'beauty' [Women and Violence, Part 5]
[This is part of my series on Women and Violence, which I am writing as a project for a Women Studies course I'm taking. For an explanation and information on my intentions with this series, please see the introduction.]
Next week I'm giving a presentation in class on cosmetic surgery in regards to women of color. Now, cosmetic surgery does not readily fall under most common definitions of 'violence,' and I find myself hesitant to categorically label it as such.
On the one hand, while cosmetic surgery does involve bloody alterations on a person's body, so does surgery in general, and we generally don't label that as violent – especially when voluntarily consented to by the patient. The fact that cosmetic surgery is often (though not always) agreed to by an autonomous individual does mitigate the physical damage it brings.
Of course, we are all aware that 'consent' is a sticky issue, and that we can't ignore the pressures that can constrain a person's ability to make a choice – particularly in the case of women facing pressures to be 'beautiful' in a certain way.
Furthermore, the same level of physical damage can be construed as 'violent' or 'non-violent' depending on the context. Full-contact sports can be performed just as ferociously as a street brawl, yet not be uncontrolled and violent. What's more, a session of safe, sane, and consensual BDSM can be non-violent, while the quietest rape perpetrated under clearly communicated threat is clearly not. Continue reading
And yet he still has a (multi-million dollar a year paying) job
The last thing the NBA wants you to think about while the playoffs are in full and exciting swing is one of its most habitually toxic players pleading no contest and then being sentenced for a misdemeanor domestic violence charge.
Ron Artest is, without a doubt, the single worst role-model when it comes to active professional athletes so it comes as no surprise that though reported, it's of little concern to the sports world when upsets and game sevens are amuk in the NBA. Artest is also one of the best defensive players in the game and, strictly for his on-court performance, one of the most sought after. So sought after, in fact, that his current team, the Sacramento Kings, agreed to take on Artest after the infamous Malice At The Palace and then stood behind him throughout the entire DV ordeal with talk about "everyone makes mistakes," "think of the children" and "second chances." He likely won't be dismissed from his current team and even if he is, there are always other franchises looking for a gun-for-hire regardless of how they conduct themselves off the court.

Tradition and the obscuring of gender violence [Women and Violence, Part 4]
[This is part of my series on Women and Violence, which I am writing as a project for a Women Studies course I'm taking. For an explanation and information on my intentions with this series, please see the introduction.]
One of the most insidious ways of normalizing and justifying gendered violence is by tying it to tradition. By portraying perpetrators as if they were enacting the accepted practices of a culture, those in power position victims of violence not only against their victimizer, but also against the weight of a culture's history. Additionally, "tradition" is a popular buzzword that protects a practice from interrogation, hiding it behind a shield of maintaining history or honoring ancestors. Continue reading
Discursive patterns regarding sexual violence [Women and Violence, Part 3]
[This is part of my series on Women and Violence, which I am writing as a project for a Women Studies course I'm taking. For an explanation and information on my intentions with this series, please see the introduction.]
A couple of disclaimers, to start:
-First, this is not about me being angry at, or blaming, any particular individuals. This is also not about placing the responsibility for a society-wide problem on these particular individuals.
-Second, this entry is for everyone to read, even though I refer to a specific example in which only a few people were involved. The point of this entry is, again, not to pin the responsibility on anyone. The point is to raise awareness of a common, problematic pattern that we all engage in.
The other day I posted this rant to my journal concerning an incident at work. I was disturbed and angry about what seems to me an instance of sexual harassment (not because it was necessarily aimed at women, but because it was sexual and it was harassment). I was also aware of the ways in which sexism played into my reaction: my first instinct was to minimize my own discomfort and stay quiet about it, though in the end I realized what I was doing and spoke up.
Several people commented on that entry (though I have since screened the comments – again, so that attention or blame is not focused on one or two people). Here is the layout of the comments as of today, April 14:
-One short thread (one person's comment and my reply) expressing sympathy about my experience.
-One long thread that begins with a person expressing sympathy, then suggesting an alternate explanation that would excuse the anonymous man's actions as being something other than sexual harassment. The thread continues with two other people joining in to support the idea of an alternate explanation, and the topic of my distress leaves the conversation.
Why did the conversation end up like this? Continue reading
Denying responsibility for sexism [Women and Violence, Part 2]
[This is part of my series on Women and Violence, which I am writing as a project for a Women Studies course I'm taking. For an explanation and information on my intentions with this series, please see the introduction.]
One of the first readings assigned for this class has been Albert Bandura's "Selective Activation and Disengagement of Moral Control," published in volume 46, number 1 of Journal of Social Issues. The purpose of the article is to examine how, in normal and everyday circumstances, people can commit actions that they typically consider immoral. Most of the time, barring deviant individuals, we keep ourselves in check. We decide not to commit immoral actions according to what we understand as 'moral,' without needing other people to force us to do so.
According to Bandura, we regulate ourselves through the use of "self-sanctions." I guess it's like the superego, but without dealing with issues of the unconscious. For a psychological layperson like me, it's useful just to think of it as a conscience. Basically it means that we watch and judge ourselves, and that is what determines our behavior. So if those judgments are somehow deactivated, then we can engage in behavior that we would normally consider wrong, but without making ourselves feel shame.
This is a pretty useful concept for a class on gendered violence, because it helps explain why something normally heinous (violence, particularly sexual violence) has become so common against women. I also find it useful for wider discussions about sexism in general – why something as awful-sounding as discriminating against people based on their sex is nonetheless such a widespread part of our societies. Not by a few of the absolute worst people. Not by the people who mean to do it. But by everybody. Continue reading

NATIONAL HARBOR, MD - The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) awarded the AILA 2009-2010 Amicus Committee with the Jack Wasserman Memorial Award for excellence in litigation in the field of immigration law. The committee members will receive the award on July 3, 2010 during AILA's Annual Conference held in National Harbor, MD.
The 2009-2010 AILA Amicus Committee, led by Oregon-based attorney Stephen Manning, has pushed the boundaries on effective legal advocacy and hones the "amicus" voice of AILA for judges and administrative adjudicators reach out to hear and understand AILA's position. The Committee implemented unique strategies to accomplish this paradigm shift including engaging in litigation in all Circuits and filing briefs in important cases. Most recently, the Committee filed an amicus brief in the Arizona district court case of Friendly House v. Whiting supporting a preliminary injunction of the AZ anti-immigrant statute commonly referred to as SB 1070.
The Committee also authored practice advisories, established Circuit monitors, and engaged in AILA Chapter outreach on targeted legal topics. The Committee members author the AILA Slip Opinion Blog at www.ailaslipopinionblog.org.
The AILA Amicus Committee includes:
The American Immigration Lawyers Association is the national association of immigration lawyers established to promote justice, advocate for fair and reasonable immigration law and policy, advance the quality of immigration and nationality law and practice, and enhance the professional development of its members.

Great news for the oceans: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia has ruled in favor of Oceana in a suit that will require commercial fisheries from North Carolina to the Canadian border to monitor and report the amount of bycatch, or untargeted marine life, they discard.
This victory may seem like a small step, but it is a triumph against one of the biggest problems facing our oceans today. Bycatch is a major player in the destruction of marine ecosystems, and occurs when fishing gear indiscriminately traps marine life in nets, trawls, and fishing lines.
Tons of fish are wasted and thousands of marine mammals, sea turtles, sharks and sea birds are injured or killed every year as bycatch. While the new law does not place limits on bycatch, it represents a crucial and long-awaited step in increasing the transparency in commercial fishing.
"For more than 15 years NMFS has violated the law, managing America's fisheries without reliable information about how much fish and other marine wildlife is being shoveled over the side of boats, often dead or dying," said Gilbert Brogan, northeast representative for Oceana. "This ruling is a significant step towards improving the management of U.S. fisheries in the Atlantic."
Congratulations to everyone who helped win this victory for more abundant oceans!
It makes sense that ocean acidification is bad for marine life. But who knew it could have far-reaching effects on human health as well?
A new report by scientists at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) shows that ocean acidification is threatening global food security by hindering the growth of clam, oyster, and other mollusk populations – staples in many nations' diets.
Without healthy and reliable mollusk populations, countries may be forced to switch to aquaculture. Countries like Haiti, Senegal, and Madagascar, however, lack the ability to make this switch and are thus especially vulnerable to the impacts of mollusk shortages. And of course, problems like this never exist in a vacuum; even developed countries such as the U.S. will feel the effects via a potential drop in GDP.
Unfortunately, this isn't just a theoretical problem – the deleterious effects can already be seen in both ecosystems and economic realms alike. In Australia's Great Barrier Reef, scientists have observed that coral growth has slowed, and Pacific Northwest oyster farms have already experienced declining economic yields. Further effects, which will no doubt be broader in scope, will probably be seen in 10 to 50 years if we do not make a concerted effort to halt ocean acidification.
News from the deep: Oceana's crew aboard the Ranger has discovered a previously undocumented coral reef in the Alboran Sea in the high seas of the Mediterranean.
The reef, which is located more than 1,300 feet below the surface and covers over 1 million square feet, is formed primarily by white coral. With this discovery, Oceana with be able to glean additional data from the reef to support our efforts to declare new marine protected areas in the Mediterranean.
Coral reefs are the backbone of many marine ecosystems, and deep-sea corals area among the most vulnerable. Tragically, many reefs are destroyed by bottom trawling, a fishing technique akin to clear-cutting that devastates coral reefs and creates seafloor wastelands devoid of life.
And coral reefs aren't the only habitats that suffer. The area around the newly discovered reef is flourishing with other important habitats including gorgonian gardens and rare glass sponge fields. In order to protect this region, Oceana is planning to present the data to the Barcelona Convention in the near future, pressing officials to list it as a protected area.
Fantastic news! Earlier this afternoon, the Chilean National Congress passed a nationwide ban on shark finning.
This groundbreaking decision comes on the heels of a very similar ban passed by the United States Congress last December, and puts both countries at the forefront of shark conservation. Oceana drafted the Chilean bill in January, and we are elated to see it pass into law – without a single dissenter.
Shark finning is an inhumane practice that often involves throwing the rest of the shark's body back into the water once the desired fin is obtained. Despite its cruelty, shark finning is incredibly rampant, due to culinary demand from Asian countries such as China, where shark fin soup is popular.
With the passage of this bill, Chile joins a growing list of countries leading the way in shark conservation. Because sharks do not respect national boundaries, this legislation will help protect shark populations and ocean health in Chile and beyond.
Spain's biggest newspaper, El País, featured Oceana prominently in this morning's cover story. The article describes Oceana's unrelenting effort to make previously confidential research regarding unsafe mercury levels in large fish freely accessible to the public, highlighting an important victory with implications for the health of the Spanish populace and the transparency of the Spanish government.
Here's the back story: in 2003, Spain's Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) conducted a large research study that documented levels of mercury and other heavy metals in large fish such as various sharks, swordfish, and bluefin tuna.
The results of the study were not good: 62.5 percent of the 128 mako shark samples and 54.2 percent of the swordfish samples contained high, unpermitted levels of mercury. Despite this alarming evidence, the results were never released due to concerns about its possible impact on the fishing industry.
Exciting news from across the pond: Oceana scientists, along with scientists from German and Italian universities, have identified carnivorous sponges in the deep waters of the Mediterranean in Spain and Italy.
Although the species, Asbestopluma hypogea, was first discovered in the 1990s, very little was known about it until recently. Oceana's research vessel, Ranger, made crucial discoveries about the sponge's habitat using an underwater robot (ROV) during its 2007 and 2010 expeditions.
Asbestopluma hypogea is no ordinary sea sponge. Most sea sponges obtain nutrients by filtering tiny food particles out of the surrounding water as it flows past the sponge – but not Asbestopluma hypogea. This tiny carnivorous sea sponge has adapted to life in areas where food is scarce. They capture small crustaceans using filaments covered with hook-like spicules, taking more than 10 days to finish each meal. And that's despite having no digestive tract, limited mobility and being very tiny (between 1 and 1.5 centimeters). How cool is that?
Yesterday was an exciting day for 5 rehabilitated Kemp's ridley sea turtles. Last November, the endangered sea turtles were found stranded on the beaches of Massachusetts after having fallen victim to cold stunning, which is essentially sea turtle hypothermia.
They were immediately transported to the National Aquarium in Baltimore, where they received medical attention at the Marine Animal Rescue Program (MARP). After more than six months of rehabilitation, the sea turtles were finally deemed healthy enough to survive on their own.
MARP staff and members of the public gathered on the shore of Maryland's Point Lookout State Park to bid farewell to the rehabbed turtles. Oceana was also there to help out, and campaign director Beth Lowell personally released Rudolph, one of the sea turtles re-entering the open ocean.
You may have heard by now that actor and ocean activist Ted Danson wrote a book called "Oceana: Our Endangered Oceana and What We Can Do to Save Them". Washington Post writer Christopher Schoppa has also heard the news; he recently featured Danson's book in his Political Bookworm column, naming it one of the most important new political bestsellers. "Oceana" currently ranks #4 on the WaPo's political bestseller list, right behind Henry Kissinger's book, "On China."
Check out the Washington Post feature to learn why Schoppa is urging his readers to pick up a copy of "Oceana", and learn more about Danson's motivations for writing the book.
ChicoBag is one of the most popular brands of reusable bags. Their totes are colorful and stylish, and they help us avoid the need to create more of the plastic waste that is clogging our rivers and streams and creating massive garbage patches in our oceans.
But in a low blow meant to drain green companies like Chico Bag of time and resources, a trio of plastic bag manufacturers is suing ChicoBag for exaggerating the dangers of plastic bags to the environment.
Although some of ChicoBag's online statements about plastic bags were indeed outdated, the company quickly corrected the errors as soon as it was notified of them. But the plastic bag trio, which includes manufacturer Hilex Poly, had no interest in ceasing fire.
How did you celebrate World Oceans Day? Oceana headed straight to the river. Teaming up with Nautica, we braved the heat and skimmed trash out of the Hudson River in an effort to protect both the river's natural beauty and the health of its marine life.
What did we find? Fewer cigarette butts than you might think, but plenty of bags, bottle caps and other plastic debris – just the types of trash that are most dangerous to fish and other aquatic life that may end up ingesting or becoming entangled in the plastic.
If you missed World Oceans Day, don't worry! You can still pledge to be an ocean hero throughout the summer by committing to cleaning up your local waterway, eating sustainable seafood, or recycling.

The 911 calls investigators released Tuesday show fear, but they also reveal the strength of one Berrendo Middle School teacher who was on the phone while trying to help one of the wounded students. The call shows compassion, professionalism and true courage under fire.
Through the entire call, you can tell the teacher just wants the student to be okay.
"I'm sure you've heard about Berrendo Middle School, I have a student, she's been shot with a bullet after the shooting here," the caller said.
She keeps calm, even in the face of danger.
"I'm in the classroom, I'm trying to be quiet cause I don't know if they're still in the hall," the caller said.
Her main concern is keeping the student alive, safe and as comfortable as possible.
"Right arm and armpit, she says she's having problems breathing. I called the office but they're dealing with other stuff and I need to have someone help her now," the caller said.
It's hard to imagine what's going through her mind as she talks to the girl, but in her voice you hear comfort, compassion and calm.

You are here: Home : Conservation : Biodiesel
Biofuels at the Zoo
biodiesel... fuel from french fries
As part of our Environmental Management System to reduce consumption of natural resources, the Zoo uses a biodiesel blend in place of regular petroleum fuel for trams, buses, trucks, tractors and equipment. Biodiesel is made from vegetable oil, allowing us to recycle used fry oil collected by Zoo restaurants. It is a substitute for petroleum diesel that is 100% renewable.
Biodiesel made from used vegetable oil is blended with petroleum diesel to produce a cleaner burning fuel. The mix is usually B20 - 20% biodiesel and 80% petroleum diesel. Zoo restaurants provide about 1500 gallons of used oil that is processed in 30-gallon batches. Current capacity can produce 1500 gallons of pure B100 or 7,500 gallons of B20 blend annually. This is enough B20 to meet 40% of Zoo fuel demand. Plans to increase the batch size and to add a second reactor tank will increase output to 17,000 gallons of B20, to meet 100% of Zoo diesel fuel needs. As production capacity increases, the Zoo will need to obtain additional waste oil from local restaurants.
Biodiesel is clean burning and B20 is estimated to reduce:
- Carbon Monoxide by 12%
- Hydrocarbons by 20%
- Sulfates by 20%
- Particulates by 12%
- Air Toxics by 20%
While exploring funding sources to design build and install the biodiesel processor, the Zoo received a $2000 grant from the NC Solar Center Alternative Fuel Incentive Project. This paid 2/3 of the cost difference between biodiesel and petroleum diesel for a seven-month period beginning December 2004. Taking advantage of this program, the Zoo became familiar with blending biodiesel and using B20.
In March 2005, the Zoo was awarded an Air Quality Mobile Source Emissions Reduction grant for $23,000 to design, build, and install a reactor to process waste cooking oil. Piedmont Biofuels built the processor that became operational in December 2005. Grant funds were used for the processor, materials for the processor trailer and shed, a storage tank and for chemicals. The grant was matched with Zoo funds for labor on the trailer and shed, an education cart on biofuels and green practices, biodiesel graphics on trams and buses, a ZooFilez TV segment, teacher workshops on alternative fuels, high school class projects and this web page.
With experience producing and using B20, the Zoo hopes to move towards using B100, ultimately phasing out all petroleum diesel fuel.
About Biodiesel
Biodiesel is made by combining alcohol (usually methanol) with vegetable oil, animal fat, or recycled cooking greases. It can be used as an additive to reduce vehicle emissions (typically 20%) or in its pure form as a renewable alternative fuel for diesel engines.
There are a number of ways to convert biomass to methanol, but the most likely approach is gasification. Gasification involves vaporizing the biomass at high temperatures, then removing impurities from the hot gas and passing it through a catalyst, which converts it into methanol.
Related Information
The National Biodiesel Board provides information on using biodiesel in conventional diesel engines, including a list of biodiesel suppliers. Their Web site includes an excellent FAQ.

Acceleration 2020: Every child college and career ready
Emily R. Lowther
Communications & Public Affairs Specialist, Senior
10 MPS students named National Merit semifinalists
MINNEAPOLIS – Ten Minneapolis Public Schools students on September 14 were named semifinalists in the 2012 National Merit Scholarship Program.
Tavis M. Leighton, Abigail K. Norling-Ruggles, Ellis Runion and Nathan P. Yeazel of South High School and Harrison F. Deaver, Keira A. Jacobs, Christopher A. Lee-Foss, Holly Stein, Phillip B. Timmons and Kirsten A. Wiard-Bauer of Southwest High School are among approximately 16,000 semifinalists in the 57th annual National Merit Scholarship Program.
About 1.5 million juniors in 22,000 high schools entered the 2012 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2010 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT®), which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of semifinalists, which represents less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors, includes the highest-scoring entrants in each state.
These academically talented high school seniors have an opportunity to continue in the competition for 8,300 National Merit Scholarships, worth more than $34 million, that will be offered next spring. To be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the finalist level of the competition. About 90 percent of the semifinalists are expected to attain finalist standing and approximately half of the finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar title.
National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), a not-for-profit organization that operates without government assistance, was established in 1955 specifically to conduct the annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Scholarships are underwritten by NMSC with its own funds and by approximately 440 business organizations and higher education institutions that share NMSC's goals of honoring the nation's scholastic champions and encouraging the pursuit of academic excellence.

- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined whether federal policies negatively affect U.S. corporations' ability to protect themselves against economic espionage, focusing on: (1) the need for information privacy in computer and communications systems to prevent economic espionage; (2) federal agency authority to develop cryptographic standards for protection of sensitive, unclassified information and the actions and policies of various agencies regarding the selection of federal cryptographic standards; (3) the National Security Agency's (NSA) and the Department of State's export control policies for encryption-capable products and the industry's rationale for requesting liberalization of such controls; and (4) the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) proposed legislation regarding telephone systems that use digital communications technology.
GAO found that: (1) the U.S. computer industry has increasingly used computer and communications equipment with encryption capabilities to protect proprietary information because of the increased risk of economic espionage; (2) national security and law enforcement concerns have led to federal policies that limit the use and export of U.S. commercial encryption technology and hinder its development; (3) the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and NSA have developed federal cryptographic policies and standards for sensitive, unclassified information, but they have not sought input from affected business interests, academia, and others; (4) although the Departments of State and Commerce are responsible for setting exports controls, NSA plays a major role in determining rules for exporting U.S. products with encryption capabilities; (5) stringent export controls limit U.S. industry's ability to compete in international markets for encryption products; and (6) FBI proposed legislation would compel telecommunications service providers and private branch exchange operators to ensure that wiretapping needs could be met and prohibit any technology that would impede government interception of electronic communications.

Movie Info
Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) is no ordinary archeologist. When we first see him, he is somewhere in the Peruvian jungle in 1936, running a booby-trapped gauntlet (complete with an over-sized rolling boulder) to fetch a solid-gold idol. He loses this artifact to his chief rival, a French archeologist named Belloq (Paul Freeman), who then prepares to kill our hero. In the first of many serial-like escapes, Indy eludes Belloq by hopping into a convenient plane. So, then: is Indiana Jones afraid of anything? Yes, snakes. The next time we see Jones, he's a soft-spoken, bespectacled professor. He is then summoned from his ivy-covered environs by Marcus Brody (Denholm Elliott) to find the long-lost Ark of the Covenant. The Nazis, it seems, are already searching for the Ark, which the mystical-minded Hitler hopes to use to make his stormtroopers invincible. But to find the Ark, Indy must first secure a medallion kept under the protection of Indy's old friend Abner Ravenwood, whose daughter, Marion (Karen Allen), evidently has a "history" with Jones. Whatever their personal differences, Indy and Marion become partners in one action-packed adventure after another, ranging from wandering the snake pits of the Well of Souls to surviving the pyrotechnic unearthing of the sacred Ark. A joint project of Hollywood prodigies George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, with a script co-written by Lawrence Kasdan and Philip Kaufman, among others, Raiders of the Lost Ark is not so much a movie as a 115-minute thrill ride. Costing 22 million dollars (nearly three times the original estimate), Raiders of the Lost Ark reaped 200 million dollars during its first run. It was followed by Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1985) and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), as well as a short-lived TV-series "prequel." ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi … More

All Critics (65) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (62) | Rotten (3) | DVD (39)
Yes, it's as entertaining as you have heard. Maybe more so. Raiders of the Lost Ark is, in fact, about as entertaining as a commercial movie can be.
Raiders of the Lost Ark has it all -- or, anyway, more than enough to transport moviegoers back to the dazzling, thrill-sated matinee idyls of old.
The thrills are fully consumed while you're seeing this movie, and it's totally over when it's over. It's a workout. You feel as if you'd been to the desert digs: at the end your mind is blank, yet you're parched, you're puffing hard -- you want relief.
...a crackerjack fantasy-adventure that shapes its pulp sensibilities and cliff-hanging serial origins into an exhilarating escapist entertainment that will have broad-cased summer audiences in the palm of its hand.
One would think that a collaboration between Steven Spielberg and George Lucas would produce something better than this giggly pastiche of a Republic serial...
Whether you swallow it or not, see it for a handful of totally unexpected visual jokes, worth the price of admission alone.
Raiders of the Lost Ark is my favorite movie. I don't have to tell you why it's great. You know why it's great. Instead, what follows is a list of very personal moments.
There is a charm and vitality to Raiders of the Ark, which Spielberg later admitted was "the first movie where I actually shot the movie without thinking".
Harrison Ford embodies the persona of Indiana Jones with perfection and paves him as an iconic hero.
This film is a volcano of creative ideas in full eruption -- the modern high action adventure against which all others must now be measured.
Steven Spielberg's rollicking adventure yarn still looks buoyant and dashing after 30 years.
The boulder has never looked bigger, the guns have never sounded louder and Indy's whip has never cracked sharper than they do here.
If Lucas is Raiders' guts and Kasdan its head, then Spielberg is its beating heart. Little wonder Part IV is still on the cards.
Raiders is a classic and repeated viewings, especially when presented properly on the big screen, only reinforce this further.
Breathtakingly efficient, immaculately constructed... This is the ne plus ultra of blockbuster filmmaking.
It is the classic film [by] Lucas, Spielberg...back before they were replaced by automatons put here by aliens.
Justifiably one of the most indelible adventure films in cinematic history...
It's the perfect vacation-time movie: not a serious moment in its whole two hours but so crammed with laughter, thrills and cinematic sleight of hand that audiences will be sorry when it's over.
Lost Ark holds up for many reasons, not least of which is because of Spielberg's consummate skill as a visual storyteller and his ability to draw charged performances from his actors.
Audience Reviews for Raiders of the Lost Ark
Swashbucklers were deeply unfashionable at the time when Raiders was made, and it took the talents of the then new golden boy of Hollywood to breathe new life into the genre. With a bespectacled alter ego who is a million miles away from his action man persona like an archaeological Clark Kent, Indiana Jones became an iconic action figure who was often knocked on his backside, played fair only when it suited him and was far more interested than his treasure than getting the girl. Sound familiar? Yes without Raiders, Captain Jack would probably never have existed. Like POTC, this film takes its cues from the golden age of the Hollywood swashbuckler, to the point where Ronald Lacey's sinister yet effeminate secret policeman and Paul Freeman's amoral gentleman rogue could easily have been mistaken for Peter Lorre and Sidney Greenstreet respectively. The action is as superbly handled by Spielberg as always, the truck chase scene being one of the all time great stunt sequences and the wholly unexpected finale that blends religious mythology with gothic horror is fantastic. A perfectly judged combination of slam bang set pieces and humour that makes for flawless family entertainment.More

My love for this great classic is truly beyond words! As a kid, it was a moment of magic for me every time Indy in his iconic adventure gear appeared on screen. Whether it was narrowly escaping a giant boulder of death, or opening a can of whoop-ass when faced with some Nazi bad guys, you could always count on him to deliver some first-rate fun. And there couldn't have been anyone better to execute it than artisan story-teller Steven Spielberg. Nor any better music composer than the legendary John Williams, whose instantly recognizable themes are classics in their own right. Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Paul Freeman and John Rhys-Davies - there's not a single performance in here that isn't totally fantastic. So prepare yourself for a helluva good time. Because whenever Indy whips up some action, it's impossible not to stick around and watch.More

A fun adventure/action story from the days before CGI when the story had to be the driving force behind a good action film. A true classic that should not be missed.More

This is basically one of the all -time greatest action/adventure films ever made. It's also totally cool that it delves into fantasy/supernatural territory as well, as it doesn't feel out of place.
Set in 1936, this loving homage to action/adventure serials of the 1930s and 40s follows Indiana Jones- a college professor and archaeologist who, unlike most people in his profession, is also an adventurer who has no problems getting down and dirty to get the treasures and artifacts he needs.
Called upon by military intelligence agents, he sets out on a globe trotting quest to find and recover the Ark of the Covenant (the chest containing the remains of the Ten Commandments) before the Nazis do, who feel that they will be unstoppable if the Ark is in their possession. Joining him are Marion Ravenwood- his embittered former lover and daughter of his mentor (who was an expert on the Ark), and his comrade Sallah- 'the best digger in Cairo'. Along the way, Jones and Co. have to contend with Indy's rival French archaeologist Renee Belloq (who is working for the Nazis), relentless Gestapo officer Toht, a bunch of soldiers, and a ton of snakes (Indy's biggest fear).
Spielberg and Co. intended this to be just a loving B-movie homage to stuff from the past that they loved. They weren't trying to make an amazing work of art. However, the film was so well done that that is exactly what it became, transcending the level of genre pic to masterpiece of artistic adventure cinema.
Pretty much everything about this film shines: the script is tight, with the characterization and exposition expertly laid out with perfect pacing, the technical stuff like cinematography, editing, and all the effects (yay for no CGI!) are superb, then of course, there's the music. Hands down amazing. The score by John Williams pretty much drives the film, and is probably overall, what really makes it work. While the film does have dialogue, it's actually pretty sparse, with most of the film cruising along via visual storytelling, highlighted by the thrilling music cues.
Harrison Ford is terrific as Indy, and among his most iconic roles, this one's probably the best, and that's taking into consideration that I'm a big Star Wars fan. Paul Freeman is amazing as Belloq, who is a terrific character. Yeah, he's the villain, but he's actually quite layered and complex, and not really that typical of a villain. Basically he and Indy are pretty morally gray, but Belloq is a tad bit darker. Arnold Lacey is friggin creepy as Toht, and he really makes your skin crawl. As Marion, Karen Allen is great, and the character is more than just a pure damsel in distress. John Rhys-Davies is fun as Sallah, and it's great seeing Alfred Molina in his film debut as a guide who helps Indy on a mission prior to the Ark quest.
The film is fun, funny, and very thrilling. I've seen it many times, and it never gets old. Yeah, there's a few cheesy moments, but they mostly add to the charm and enjoyment of things. I got the chance to see this on the big screen, and, let me tell you, it really added to the experience, and made me love this film even more.
If you've somehow managed to never see this, you really must. It's crackling good entertainment, and truly one of the best.

Very happy with the car. Only one issue: the driver's seat adjustment was damaged and needed repair. Given this could have been damaged in transit (on/off the ship, on/off the road transporter?) I will give the seller the benefit of the doubt. Otherwise, the car was in immaculate condition. Thanks, Jeff

Awst 2012
Return of the Vikings? Week One
The unexpected discovery in 2001 of an intramural burial within the early medieval enclosed settlement at Llanbedrgoch raised a new series of questions about the site, its occupants, their activities and their relationships with other regions.
We returned to the site a week ago, and the last eight days have focused on setting out the new areas of excavation, removing ploughsoil, monitoring weather forecasts and adjusting the daily tasks to make the best of at times trying conditions. The team of students includes volunteers from Bangor and Cardiff, and one from Toronto (Canada). Yesterday we were joined by some local, experienced, volunteers from Gwynedd and Anglesey. They have all been outstanding, and the early medieval archaeology of the site is already being transformed. Excavation is an ongoing process, and if you follow us over the next three weeks, the team will provide you with personal insights into the excavation.
Even though the research design has clearly stated objectives, the work often reveals evidence of a completely different nature. Our return this year was in fact the result of such an unexpected discovery and its implications. The burial from inside the enclosure (Burial 6) was not revealed in plan through specific searching for inhumations, or the recognition of subtle changes in soil colour or character, but by the decision to cut a narrow trench through the early medieval 'black earth' midden material in the south-western area of the site in order to reveal the midden sequence and facilitate section drawing and sampling.
In spite of the profound silence of the individual in this grave and those discovered in 1998-99, they continue since their discovery to help us answer in increasing detail a range of fundamental historical questions:
How did the people of Llanbedrgoch and north-west Wales, who had contact with Anglo-Saxons, Irish and Scandinavians, respond to such peoples?
How does the archaeological evidence for the politics and economy of early medieval Wales compare to that provided by other sources?
Were the daily lives of people at Llanbedrgoch during the sixth and seventh centuries different from those in the ninth and tenth centuries?
What types of diet and health did they enjoy?
How did Christianity affect their lives and burial practices?
We have already begun to answer some of these questions – one of the first artefacts to be found last week in the ploughsoil was a lead necklace pendant in the form of a cross – slightly larger than one found in an earlier season of excavation at the site.
This site continues to amaze, surprise and inspire – follow us if you can.

Return of the Vikings?
After a gap of more than a decade, a team of archaeologists has returned to excavate at Llanbedrgoch, Anglesey. You can read more about previous seasons at this Viking-Age settlement here http://www.museumwales.ac.uk/en/archaeology/vikings/
Mark Redknap and his team made an exciting discovery towards the end of the 2001 season - evidence that there might be an early medieval cemetery on the site. Are they right? Finds are appearing already, but what can they tell us? Watch this space to find out more!
Mark is joined this season by
Evan Chapman (Amgueddfa Cymru - National Museum Wales)
David Griffiths (University of Oxford)
Tudur Davies (University of Sheffield)
Brian Milton, an experienced archaeologist from Cornwall who has spent many seasons at Llanbedrgoch
Archie Gillespie, one of the two metal detectors who originally found the site and who is a dab hand with the archaeological trowel too.
Students from Cardiff, Bangor and Toronto Universities, and other volunteers.
Hopefully you'll get to hear more about them as the dig progresses over the next 3 weeks.

BlackBerry Bold 9650 Announcement at WES 2010? Available May 1st from VZW?
The BlackBerry Bold 9650 (formally known as Tour 9650/Essex/Tour 2) has been rumored for a long long time now. New rumors are floating around that we will finally see an official announcement next week at RIM's annual Wireless Enterprise Symposium (WES). Boy Genius is reporting that RIM will announce the device at WES 2010, and we will see it launch shortly after or around May 1st for Verizon. CrackBerry also reported that Sprint will be getting ready to launch the Bold 9650 on May 16th. If this is true it seems that WES 2010 could have some exciting new announcements, including the new Pearl 9100 series.

A fine batting performance from Chris Rogers was instrumental in Australia gaining a slight upper-hand at the end of Day 2 of the fourth Test against England at Chester-le-Street and the left-handed opener, who scored his maiden Test hundred, said it was a fantastic experience getting to his first three-figure score in Test cricket. Rogers, who helped Australia end the day at 222/5, 16 runs shy of England's first innings total, said: "I've had a long career and didn't think I'd get this opportunity, let alone to score a hundred. To get a hundred is the best moment of my career. To play for your country is unbelievable. To wear the Baggy Green and get a hundred is something no one can take away from you. I'm extremely happy at the moment." Rogers, who was unbeaten on 101, had put on a fine stand with Shane Watson (68) to help Australia recover from a top-order collapse. Describing the conditions, Rogers said the ball was seaming quite a lot and he had to ride his luck. The left-hander said he managed to hang in and defy the English bowlers. "When the ball is harder, it seams a lot more and one has to ride one his luck and I had plenty of luck today. On these wickets you can't push out at the ball or you'll nick it or miss it. So the key is just to hold your shape as long as possible. I am not the prettiest batsman in the world but I managed to hang in there." The 35-year-old had missed out on his first hundred in the previous match at Manchester, getting out on 84 to Graeme Swann. This time though he was able to reach the three-figure mark, and did so stylishly with a sweep shot off the off-spin bowler. Rogers said Swann does not give left-handers too many opportunities and he was lucky that the offie bowled just in the right spot for him to play the sweep. "When I played that sweep shot, I told myself not to miss it. Swann does not give the left handers too many opportunities. I am not a natural sweeper of the ball and Swann was bowling very well. It was luckily in the right spot and I tried something different. I missed out on that cut shot on 96 and I told myself that I will get another opportunity." Rogers rejected suggestions that Australia are in a dominating position, saying the visitors still have a long way to go. "I don't know about that, I think there's a long way to go. I thought we had a very good day yesterday but we were up against it earlier on today with a few wickets but we fought hard. We need to get a lead and this wicket's not going to get any better. If we can get through and things keep going our way then hopefully we can get on the board."

Purchased for a costume party, very comfortable, worked out great.
Very cute. Well made. Washed nicely. A great gift for a friend.
I wasn't sure about the meaning of "junior" size so I ordered an M even tho I'm size S. M was loose, but ok with a belt (I wore this at a costume party). So if you're wondering about what the junior size means, it's lady fit.
Soft material, extra long, perfect fit! I could not have found a better shirt! Love the cape! I did move the buttons so the cape sat at a better angle, but it was personal preference only. So far it has held up nicely to regular wear and washing. I will buy any other super hero shirt done like this!
Perfect fit!
I like the fact that the cape can be removed for washing. My daughter loves the shirt. Only thing, wish it came with leggings or something! :o)
I love this! It's perfect for sleeping in during the winter.
I really do love this night shirt, the cape billows well in the breeze of my air conditioner. I can't wait to wear it at Dragon*Con this weekend.

Chapel Newsletter Editorial
Fall 2014
Religion and Secularity at Carleton
Carleton is a lively religious and spiritual campus. With slight variations each year, about 60% of our student body claims a religious preference, with almost every religion in the world represented here. Most of our student religious groups are sizable and active, and Chapel events representing different faiths are well attended. Today's religious students tend to be both knowledgeable about their faith and open to learning about other traditions.
Nevertheless, some students are uncomfortable bringing their faith into discussions in the classroom or elsewhere on campus. They feel that they will be judged or disregarded. Yet, like other forms of identity, religious students' perspectives and experiences are important to bring into the conversation. Secularity, especially in the context of a liberal arts education, allows for the appropriate expression of a full range of understandings, in the pursuit of growth and learning for all. Religious perspectives should not be specially excluded or privileged.
Two guidelines help to make such discussions appropriate:
1) The speaker must not assume that his or her words will be self-evidently true to others and must expect to offer justification.
2) The listener must focus on the particular issue raised by the speaker and put aside the religious stereotypes she or he may hold.
The secular liberal arts expect the speaker and the listener to follow these principles in discussing any idea.
We can each grow from such open conversations and help to change the world through our better understanding of each other. Please join us this fall as we explore the role of religion and spirituality throughout our lives of learning.
In faith and love,
Carolyn Fure-Slocum, Chaplain

The department of Lambayeque is located on the coastal plain and combines arid zones, rich valleys, and dry forests. Chiclayo, bordered by fertile valleys and very close to the ocean, is the capital of the department and the commercial nexus among the three Peruvian regions: coast, highland, and jungle
This territory was the cradle of the Mochicas, who lived there between the first and fourth centuries A.D., which makes Lambayeque one of the most interesting archeological destinations in the country.
Chiclayo is well known for its archaeological sites, such as Túcume, Batán Grande and Huaca Rajada. In 1987, in Huaca Rajada, a Moche mausoleum was found. The most significant discovery was the tomb of the lord of Sipan, who archaeologists have concluded was a royal ruler from over 1600 years ago. This important archaeological site was discovered and excavated by Walter Alva.
It is considered to be one of the most important archaeological discoveries in the last thirty years, because the main tomb was found intact and undisturbed by thieves.
In the fourth century AD, the Moche people buried one of their greatest warlords. He was buried with his head pointing south, his nose and ears covered with gold relics and his feet clad in silver. To accompany him, his subjects sacrificed women, children and llamas, while the finest warriors of the era accompanied their overlord on his voyage to the Afterlife.
Day 1 We will pick you up at your hotel and go to Huaca of the Sun and the Moon that conserves interesting paintings murals of 5 colors (white, black, red, blue and mustard) made with minerals by the moches. After lunch we will visit Chan Chan, the largest city in the world made by mud. Night in Trujillo. (L)
Day 3 In our way to Chiclayo we will visit Lady of Cao who has tatooes of snakes in her arms. Night in Chiclayo. (B,L)
Day 4 We will visit the tomb of the Lord of Sipan in Huaca Rajada. Sipan was hailed as one of the most important archaeological finds of the century. The structure found in Sipán is made up of three pyramids, one of which contained the warrior-priest accompanied by the bodies of his followers. Then will see the body of the Lord of Sipan in the Museum. (B,L)
