Cooking 101: Jack-o'-lanterns carve out place for Halloween |VIDEO
I don't know about you, but I've always loved Halloween treats. Whether it's miniature candy bars or my favorite Bottlecaps, I've never been one to pass up something sweet.
But there's nothing quite like making a holiday treat yourself. And it's even better when strawberries are in the picture.
Strawberry Jack-o'-Lanterns are a simple treat to make, and they even involve a little creativity for those of you, like myself, who can't resist a crafty project.
And you can get the kids in on this, too. Melt the white and milk chocolate chips, then let the kids do the dipping and drawing of spooky faces. But the faces don't have to be all spooky. Get creative and draw your family, friends or even co-workers. Let your imagination run wild.
Happy Halloween.
Strawberry Jack-o'-lanterns
12 ounces white chocolate chips
6 ounces milk chocolate chips
1 pound strawberries, about 1 medium container
Orange food coloring
Wash strawberries and place on paper towels to dry completely. Line baking sheet with wax paper.
Place white chocolate chips in a medium-size microwave-safe mixing bowl. Heat about 30 seconds. Stir and microwave in 30-second intervals until thoroughly melted.
Using orange concentrated paste icing color and a few toothpicks, swirl each toothpick in the paste and swirl into the melted white chocolate chips. Use as much coloring you need until you get your desired shade of orange.
You also may use regular food coloring. To get a nice orange color, use about 8 drops of red food coloring and about 18 drops of yellow.
Dip strawberries one by one and swirl into the chocolate. Place onto the baking sheet.
You may need to return the bowl to the microwave, but heat for only 30 seconds at a time.
Pour milk chocolate chips into a separate microwave safe bowl. Heat using the same method as before. Scoop melted chocolate into a small bag that zips to close. Gather chocolate at one of the bottom corners. Zip closed, then cut off the very small tip of the corner. Use to pipe a jack-o'-lantern face onto the strawberry.

Bill, do you refer to allium ursinum? If so, it´s according to http://plants.usda.gov not native to Texas. Bear Garlic is growing wild in my area, even occuring spontaneous in my garden. But its a weed in damp shaded places, and often people regret taking it into the garden. But OK, its delicious and easy to grow. If you refer some other species I'm curios to learn wich. Sören. |

Registering an event
All student organization events must be registered with ODUS for review and approval, including regularly scheduled meetings and rehearsals, as well as any events off campus. If the event is off campus and involves staying overnight, the student group must also review and comply with the new University Travel Policy. Once ODUS formally approves the event, student groups can commit financial resources to the event and begin confirming event details.
How to register your event online with OSERF
- Log onto http://studentevents.princeton.edu (aka OSERF, the Online Student Events Registration Form)
- Enter the basic event information. Be as detailed as possible for your event description.
- Please estimate the cost of your event and number of people you anticipate attending.
- If the cost of the event is not currently covered by the funds in your student organization account, please list your additional funding sources in the event description section.
- Review the list of services at the bottom of the form (you can click on the links to expand them for more information).
- Check off all of the services that you will need for your event.
- If you are checking off any services, please include what equipment or services you would like to request in the event description section.
- Review your form to make sure you have included all important details.
- Submit your event to ODUS!
- You will receive an email from email@example.com acknowledging your event submission. *Your event has not yet been approved by ODUS!*
- While you are waiting for final approval, contact each service you checked off to go over any equipment/services/menus for your event.
- You can also log back onto http://studentevents.princeton.edu at any time to view the progress of the approval process and any comments made by the approving services and ODUS.
- ODUS will review your event to add comments and suggestions and may contact you for additional information about the event.
- Once ODUS and all of the services have approved your event, you will receive a final confirmation email from email@example.com with your confirmation number. This email will also serve as event authorization to anyone who requests it.
- The confirmation email means that ODUS has approved your event concept. It does not confirm your funding or any services you may have checked off.
- After your event has been approved, you must still work to secure the necessary funds and services to plan your event successfully. This should include:
- Applying for or confirm any needed funding (see Next step - Funding).
- Contacting each service you checked off to go over or confirm any equipment/services/menu for your event.
- Confirming room or space reservation.
- Confirming any other services, vendors or speakers.
The history of registering events online
Before the launch of OSERF in the spring of 2008, all events had to be submitted on the paper events registration form in person to 313 West College. These paper forms were circulated manually across campus to receive approval from various departments, which meant a lot of running around for most students! Now students can register their events any time, any place. The approval process has also been streamlined significantly by the new online system, however the online form is still not "one stop shopping" because of the various other computer systems and forms required by different university departments.

For sale is Yamaha city 125, it has low miles, runs like a dream.
I use it when dry to get to work which is less than three miles, reason of sale is that I need extra cash to upgrade my car. It was registered in late Oct2009, so its first mot is due in Oct of this year, which it needs no work done to pass.
Electric start, automatic headlight, very economical, cheap tax and insurance. Only problem is a crack on indicator cluster, and slight scrapes, but overall good condition. The crack and scrape is a result of my inexperience, and happened on my second day of owning the bike, it feel on loose chipping in work car park.
I'm in no hurry to get rid of, so I'm not very negotiable on this price...which includes protective clothing and helmet (large), chain and heavy duty lock...every thing you need to get motoring.

Any member of an ancient people of what is now eastern and northeastern Scotland. The name (from Latin picti, painted) referred to their body painting or tattooing. They were probably descended from pre-Celtic peoples. They attacked Hadrian's Wall in 297 and warred constantly with the Romans. They united their two kingdoms by the 7th century and converted to Christianity, and in 843 Kenneth I, king of the Scots, included them in the kingdom of Alba, later Scotland.

Mercury-Vaccine Link Disproven in Autism-Study
Date Published:
October 19, 2009
A new study provides more proof that childhood vaccines with mercury as a preservative -- no longer on the market -- did not cause autism. It found that the number of autism cases continued to rise through that period even though the preservative thimerosal -- nearly half of which is made of ethylmercury -- was removed from most vaccines in 2001.

1 cup blueberries
3/4 cup pomegranate juice
1/2 cup low-fat plain Greek-style yogurt
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup granular sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Okay, this was interesting. It was not quite thick like other smoothies I make. It tasted like blueberry yogurt juice. Only changes I made was using frozen blueberries and cutting the amount of sweetener in half and it was plenty. Not a smoothie I would make again, as it was too thin for my taste and I am just not a fan of smoothies with more than a couple of Tablespoons of yogurt. However, it's healthy enough to get me through the afternoon. ty
Delicious! Add other things such as flax and other fruits.

It was ok, I added some ice cubes and that helped A lot with the texture.
A smoothie has to have some thickness and texture, and this recipe calls for no frozen fruit or ice, so in that respect, it's not really a smoothie to me, just a fruit-yogurt drink. I did add quite a bit of crushed ice which didn't dilute the flavor it too badly, used vanilla Greek yogurt and pomegranate-blueberry juice (both what I had on hand) and was quite happy with the taste. As I always do with smoothies that have oatmeal, I first ground/pulverized the oats in the blender and then added the rest of the ingredients. Pretty good, but it does either need frozen blueberries or ice IMO and at least for me, I'll cut the cinnamon in half if I make this again.

Info about On Assignment travel company
0Aug 22, '06 by gucci rushI was looking to switch travel companies and I decided to check out OA since I have heard so many good comments about the company, I spoke with a recruiter about the travel packages and everything sounded fine, I filled out the app, and was told to fax my paperwork over ASAP because my recruiter will be receiving her hospital needs list at the end of the week or the beginning of the following week, needless to say that has been 3weeks ago, I left a message and a email just to find out whats going on and haven't received a call back, I don't know if I should look elsewhere for another company or request a different recruiter. Any advice from anyone who has traveled with OA would be beneficial.
0Aug 22, '06 by BeneficenceI started to go with OA with my first assignment, and I felt like I was getting the run around. I found a new company and am over half way into my first assignment. My recruiter is nice. I got good housing, and the rest of the staff is very supportive. Good luck!!

Simple yet beautiful
Floral Flourish Save the Date Magnets Ordered for my daughters wedding at the last minute. Searched through hundreds of options and these were exactly what we were looking for! Simple yet beautiful
Overall easy, nice product. Would use again.
Lovely Blossoms Save the Date Magnets We ordered save the date magnets. The customization was fairly simple and there were a lot of options. The price wasn't particularly inexpensive or expensive. The magnets took a little longer to arrive than I would have liked. However, the shipping presentation was a nice touch-- sample invitations and a neat little booklet. Overall good experience, I would use the company again.
Perfect magnet
Floral Flourish Save the Date Magnets I couldn't be more pleased with my order. It was very easy and simple to design and order my save the date magnets and I was very surprised when they came in a very nice box with a catalog to start thinkings invitations. Couldn't be happier!
Save the Date Magnets
Soft and Sweet Save the Date Magnets I was so happy with the way my save the date magnets turned out. I opted for the Just One to see how it looked before ordering all of them at once and it was delivered within days of ordering. I was able to personalize my own colors and text. I noticed that the text became too large for the area easily, and I may have had the text in the lower right corner larger if I could have, but I really think it turned out fantastic anyway. The presentation of the items upon delivery was notable. They arrived in a high quality box that I have since used to keep track of stamps and other paper products. I also received 10 extra magnets, which was a pleasant surprise. In addition, a First Look book was included for invitations with a few samples, which was fun. The quality of the magnets is excellent. I did notice that some black flecks were shedding from the edges as we stuffed the envelopes, but that wasn't really anything to complain about. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product!
Great Experience
Harvest of Love Save the Date Magnets They have so many styles to choose from and you can personalize so many different ways. The order came is a very nice memory box in the color of the wedding! No charge! Overall I am very happy with my experience.

Gov. Branstad Says Fuel Tax Hike Still Possible
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- With time running out in this legislative session, Gov. Terry Branstad still isn't ruling out the possibility of increasing the state fuel tax, though lawmakers seem less optimistic. Branstad told reporters this week that if the Legislature approves proposed cuts to the commercial property tax, then a fuel tax increase "could be considered." For years, legislators have debated increasing Iowa's fuel tax -- currently 22 cents per gallon of gasoline, including fees -- but they haven't taken action. The tax has not gone up since 1989. A commission appointed by Branstad in 2011 recommended an increase of 8 to 10 cents to support the state network of bridges and roads, many of which are considered deteriorating or deficient.

PATNA: There is some good news for the school dropouts after class VIII, who are in the age group of 18-25 years. The Bihar State Tourism Development Corporation (BSTDC) will soon start a short-term course to create employment opportunities for such youths in the hospitality sector. The course will be free.
The BSTDC will soon advertise the programme under the Union ministry of tourism initiative of 'Hunar se Rozgar Tak' for creating employment skills among the youths belonging to economically weaker section of the society.
The BSTDC will use its own human resources for the programme although it is sponsored by the Union ministry of tourism under its scheme of capacity building for service providers. However, the BSTDC will also engage guest faculty, as per norms, to meet the additional requirement. No fee will be charged from the applicant.
The ministry and the implementing agency will make efforts to facilitate employment for those who would complete the course. There will be minimum 25 and maximum 30 trainees in a class. In Bihar, training would be imparted in three sectors - food and beverages, housekeeping (both of six weeks) and food production (eight weeks).
The ministry had convened a meeting at New Delhi recently to implement the programme in different parts of the country. The managing director of the BSTDC, Awadhesh Kumar, and its DGM Navin Kumar attended meeting.
Navin told TOI that the programme would be of six to eight weeks duration. The BSTDC would conduct at least two programmes during 2012-13. "The successful trainees would be given preference, according to their expertise, in the hotels run by Bihar tourism," he said.
After the training of every batch, the BSTDC would post on its website the list of successful trainees, along with their contact details, he said.

Genome-Wide Analyses of Exonic Copy Number Variants in a Family-Based Study Point to Novel Autism Susceptibility Genes
PLOS Genetics, Bucan M, Abrahams BS, Wang K, Glessner JT, Herman EI, et al.
Year Published:
The study identified 27 different genetic regions where rare copy number variations - missing or extra copies of DNA segments - were found in the genes of children with autism spectrum disorders, but not in the healthy controls. The researchers, including geneticists from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) compared genetic samples of 3,832 individuals from 912 families with multiple autistic children against genetic samples of 1,070 disease-free children. Besides the identification of 27 regions harboring rare variants in children with ASDs, the study also uncovered two novel genes where variations were found, BZRAP1 and MDGA2 - thought to be important in synaptic function and neurological development, respectively. Interestingly, key variants on these genes were passed down in some, but not all, of the affected individuals in families.

Zachary Rodgers | August 24, 2009 | Comments
The agency will build touch-sensitive screens for brands and institutions.
When it unveiled its interactive Touchwall at the Cannes Lions ad festival earlier this summer, WPP-owned Schematic said upfront it considered the project a dry run for a wave of branded touchscreen installations.
So it's not a huge surprise to learn that the agency has launched a unit to oversee such out-of-home projects. The new group, called Schematic Touch, is headed up by Eric Mauriello and Josiah Hobson, who will lead a group of four dedicated staffers. Others from within and outside the agency will provide creative and technical talent, as well as hardware components and other support.
Mauriello and Hobson join the group from Operand, an interactive agency where they built installations for such brands as Levi's and Cisco and for cultural institutions like the Smithsonian and the New York Historical Society.
Schematic Touch's first projects include a multitouch kiosk for a big retailer and a redesigned business center experience for a business-to-business company.
According to Schematic CEO Trevor Kaufman, while many client projects may resemble the Touchwall, others are shaping up to be quite different. For instance, some are interested in creating a transparent experience, and others want the product integrated tightly with a building's architecture.
"Everybody looks at it through their own lenses," he said. "When we talk to venues -- buildings -- they think of added content and utility. Brands think of it as a way to create new experiences that might be multiuser...The opportunities are more diverse than one might think."
Kaufman said an important lesson of the Touchwall in Cannes was that personal involvement and device interaction are crucial to the experience. These are leveraged through technologies such as RFID and mobile.
"The way the thing interacts with other things is really important. We underestimated that going in," he said.
Schematic is in talks with approximately 12 clients to create branded touchscreens.

About Me
A psychologist by training, I am an avid student of life, transition and change. Due to my own life circumstances, I am making a transition from an office based practice to a virtual practice.

NMMA joins court appeal of E15 ruling
Posted onThe National Marine Manufacturers Association, and its partners in the Engine Products Group, filed suit this week in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, challenging the Environmental Protection Agency's rule outlining a gas pump warning label as well as other misfueling controls for gasoline containing up to 15 percent ethanol.
This rule, which was released in June, also included a denial of the Engine Products Group's request that the EPA ensure the continued sale and availability of gasoline blends no greater than 10 percent ethanol because retailers that are not prepared to offer both E10 and E15 may opt to offer E15 only.
The NMMA filed a separate suit last December in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, challenging the EPA's partial waiver approving E15 for certain model motor vehicles.
E15 was approved for cars that are model-year 2001 or newer. It has not been approved for marine engines, but the NMMA is concerned that the EPA has not taken steps to reduce the chance of misfueling.
For example, the gasoline warning label the EPA approved is written only in English, no consumer education campaign is being conducted and the EPA is not requiring any physical misfueling controls.
The Engine Products Group also filed a motion of abeyance, which asks the court to put a hold on this most recent misfueling petition until the original legal challenge on the partial waiver is resolved, the NMMA said.
In addition to the NMMA, the Engine Products Group includes the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute, the Association of Global Automakers and the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers.

"Life change happens in circles,
not in rows."
~ Andy Stanley
The "church" is not a building, a denomination, or a business organization. It's a family of people who agree about Jesus. At Grace Hills, we believe that the family needs to gather together on the weekend in our worship time, but we also believe the family should scatter around the community and meet in small groups during the week. We call these small groups Grace Groups.
Belonging to a Group
Every believer needs a church home, and we also need a small group of other believers for support and encouragement. We believe that spiritual growth happens as we gather regularly with a few other believers, and when we meet, our goals are simple:
- To share each other's hurts and triumphs.
- To pray for one another.
- To know one another.
- To be accountable to others.
- To encourage one another.
- … and more.
Hosting Your Own Group
Everybody needs a spiritual family, and God has given the church to fill that role in our lives. And every believer needs to be part of a small group of believers for mutual encouragement and spiritual growth in community with each other. We call it "doing life together." And when people approach us and ask, how can I get into a small group? our response is usually Would you help us start a new one?
Hosting a Grace Group is a great way to help people discover and grow in Christ, develop community, and expand the reach of the church. It can be one of the most rewarding things you could consider doing. And hosting your own group or helping others to start one is something you can do!
Read the following information and fill out the form below to start the conversation.
What is required or expected of a Grace Group host?
Group hosts need to be people who are committed to Jesus and who have been baptized as believers. Hosts also need to have attended Membership Matters and signed our Membership Covenant, or plan to do so within a three-month period after beginning their group.
We do NOT expect group hosts to be Bible scholars. New believers are welcome to host groups. We believe strongly in "on-the-job" training. All hosts will gather together every few months for a time of discussion and training with a Grace Hills Pastor.
What exactly does a Grace Group host do?
We ask hosts to be willing to do four things:
- Have a heart for people.
- Open their home (or another meeting place).
- Serve a snack.
- Turn on a video.
What is the Bible study curriculum?
Grace Hills has a partnership with RightNow Media that offers us a library of over 4,400 videos and dozens of video-based studies to choose from led by authors we trust. If you'd like access and you're a Grace Hills attender, just email us and ask – it's free to you.
When and how often should we meet?
We strongly encourage groups to meet every week, but allow for missing weeks now and then when group members are scattered. The time is up to the group. Many groups find Sunday evenings to be the best time, but groups can meet any day, morning, afternoon, or evening. We're flexible!
Can we meet somewhere other than a home?
Absolutely! In fact, we encourage groups to launch in workplaces, break rooms, coffee shops, and wherever else people can meet. Often, groups that meet somewhere other than a home have an advantage when it comes to involving people who aren't part of the church.
What do we do about kids?
Some groups hire a babysitter and divide the cost. Others let kids play in another room. It's really up to the group. Grace Hills doesn't currently provide childcare for Grace Groups, but we've found that most groups can have a great meeting even when kids are playing in a room nearby. Further, we love the idea of kids seeing their parents engaging with others in Bible study – it's a great example to set!
Can people attend my group who don't attend Grace Hills?
Definitely! This is one of the best ways to grow and expand our reach. We are careful not to try to "recruit" people already involved in other churches, but when someone is not connected in a church, we want to include them in ours!

beef tartare
[tar-TAR]
A dish of coarsely ground or finely chopped high-quality, raw lean beef that has been seasoned with salt, pepper and herbs. It's thought to have originated in the Baltic provinces of Russia where, in medieval times, the Tartars shredded red meat with a knife and ate it raw. Today the seasoned raw meat is usually shaped into a mound with an indentation in the top, into which is placed a raw egg yolk. Beef tartare (also referred to as steak tartare ) is usually served with capers, chopped parsley and onions.

Reviews for Microgestin Fe 1/20 to treat Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
Review by Distortedsoundz (taken for 1 to 6 months):
User Rating: |
Slowed down my abnormal bleeding after a few weeks, it stopped altogether then started up again but not to the degree that it was before I was taking it. I've gained 10 lbs from it. I eat half of what I used to, ad eat an extremely healthy diet. I do 30 mins of cardio and 30 minutes of weight training 5-6 days a week plus bicycling 7 days a week. I've had awful mood swings and depression. Bad headaches on top of it.

I was initially given two Lo Loestrin Fe samples and had no issues until making the switch to Microgestin Fe 1/20 a few days ago. Due to breaking out in a rash (which zigzags across the top of my thigh) and nerve issues (numbness/pain/tingling that's made it difficult to walk) with my foot, I had to stop taking the pill after 6 days of use. I'm relieved to know that it works for so many.

Just days ahead of Venezuelan election, how are the Capriles and Chávez campaigns looking?
(Read article summary)Capriles's campaign comes off as very well run and professional, but without the sort of grassroots element seen in Chávez's, writes a guest blogger.
Rodrigo Abd/AP
Caracas, Venezuela
Four days from now, the votes should be counted in Venezuela's first presidential election in six years and people can stop speculating about how the race will turn out. Unlike the vast majority of elections around the world, this one could change the politics, policy, and even demographics of a significant-sized and reasonably important chunk of the world – and the place that may have more accessible oil than anywhere else.
For now, we're in the campaign, and from what little I have seen in two days in Venezuela, the excitement is greater on the side supporting incumbent President Hugo Chávez, rather than challenger Governor Henrique Capriles.
That is exactly the opposite of what I've read on most of my favorite English language websites about the country, but it's the truth. To put it very simply, Capriles' campaign looks like a very well run, professional campaign, and not a grassroots movement. Chávez's campaign has elements of both.
For example, as I have wandered through Caracas' richer east end and poorer center for the last two days, I have seen more cars and buses decorated with Chávez slogans than with Capriles slogans. I see very little graffiti, stickers, or lapel pins in favor of either side. I see a lot of people wearing pro-Chávez T-shirts that read "Misión 7 Octubre," a reference to election day. I see far more street stencils for Chávez. I see people driving around supporting Chávez in vehicle and motorcycle caravans. At a kiosk in the center of Caracas today, a worker offered me a silkscreen print of "CHAVEZ" if I came back with a T-shirt. Tonight in Altamira Plaza, the spiritual heart of the upscale east end, there was a very good punk and ska show in favour of Chávez.

The Price of "Going Leaderless"—Lessons from the Libyan Rebels by Dawn Lennon - Apr, 2011 It's a case of follow the leader. That's how organizations are designed to function.

The Yellow Legal Pad by Suzanne Bates - Apr, 2011 Some years ago I had a boss who demonstrated how easy it is to get the best ideas from people.

Google Nexus One sees T-Mobile price cut
(Read article summary)A small segment of early adopters will see a $100 refund as Google and T-Mobile extend full discounts to more people.
Evan Vucci/AP
As if the iPhone weren't enough of a lesson.
Here, ladies and gentlemen, is reason number 6,234 why being an early adopter isn't a good idea.
As we wrote earlier this month, the pricing structure for Google's first phone left us scratching our heads – new T-Mobile customers who signed up for a two-year contract got the otherwise-$529 phone at a subsidized $179. Current T-Mobile customers who were adding a data plan could upgrade their phones to the Nexus One for $279. But those who were upgrading to the Google phone with an existing data plan were initially charged an extra hundred bucks – $379.
On Thursday, Google and T-Mobile rolled back that last caveat, announcing that all upgrade-eligible T-Mobile customers could take advantage of the deeper discount. Current eligibility rules are here. Google's statement follows:
Previously there were two price points for those fully eligible for T-Mobile upgrades. Those without data plans were paying $279 for the Nexus One, and those with data plans were being charged $379. We worked with T-Mobile and are now able to offer the higher upgrade discount to all existing fully eligible T-Mobile subscribers. This price is now $279. Refunds will be granted to all eligible subscribers who previously purchased the Nexus One at $379. This doesn't affect any eligible customers who bought the phone for $279.

The spam bots in this game almost make it unplayable. Sure you could have a game with a level restriction, but now they have bots of all levels. So you either have to make a private game, or mash the N button non stop. Hopefully they don't let this happen with Diablo 3. EDIT: Wow thanks for the feature GT. I wasn't expecting that. I was wondering why this video had so many comments lol. By the way, I reported a spammer like 8 months ago. I reported his name, and account name and attached a screenshot of him spamming and sent it to Blizzard and the account still isn't banned.

Consistently maintaining eco-friendly standards, Mahwah's mechanics recycle all excess engine juice in accordance with EPA guidelines.
If a party contains anywhere from 4 to 15 travelers, it's likely that 17 North Limos has a vehicle that precisely accommodates the group. From Lincoln Town Cars to a stretch Porsche Cayenne limousine, the fleet can handle groups of any size and temperament, whether they're departing for a business trip or partying the night away. All vehicles—even the big GMC party bus—come stocked with water and assorted candies, sweetening up rides to myriad destinations such as the airport, the wedding chapel, or the next stop in a citywide bar hop.
When Classic Auto Spa & Express Care Center was established, the building that was already on the site was pulverized to create fill for the new structure. Thus began the center's commitment to green practices. Its car wash works with eco-safe cleaners and mostly recycled water, using much less of the resource than customers would when washing their own cars in their driveways or bathtubs. What's more, used oil expended during oil changes in the lube center heats the building. As clients wait for their cars to be serviced, they relax in leather easy chairs, watch satellite television, hook up to a WiFi hotspot, or simply pass the time turning used air fresheners into upcycled necklaces.

Massey Ferguson Delivers Further Enhancements to Harvest Support Service
Massey Ferguson, a worldwide brand of AGCO (NYSE: AGCO), has introduced the innovative Harvest Promise compensation scheme for operators of current production MF combines.
In the event of eligible MF combines being immobilised due to non-delivery of critical parts within 24 hours, the scheme compensates the customer should a contractor or replacement machine need to be hired to continue the harvest. Under the scheme, a refund of 35 Euros/ha will be made to the customer up to a maximum total of 3,500 Euros.
New Features Boost Massey Ferguson Combine Performance & Comfort
New MF ACTIVA S and MF BETA combines from Massey Ferguson provide more engine power, improve operator comfort and control as well as increase harvesting performance in a wide range of crops.
"These new straw walker models, with drum and concave threshing, offer superb flexibility for efficient harvesting in a wide range of European conditions and crops – even rice," says Adam Sherriff, Manager Marketing Powered Harvesting. "They provide the power, economy and performance required by the largest sector of the market and offer these users an unrivalled combination of the latest technology with exceptional comfort and control with ease of use from a reliable and straightforward design.
All the combines can be specified with the market-leading PowerFlow header, which is now available in widths up to 6.8m for the MF ACTIVA S models and 7.7m for the MF BETA combines. PowerFlow uses a continuous belt feed to gather crops, reduce table losses significantly and presents an even 'heads first' crop flow, which can boost output by up to 73% in oilseed rape.
The new MF ACTIVA S models also now boasts the completely new Proline cab. Developed specifically for these machines and offers specifications usually found only on higher capacity combines, such as the latest TechTouch 2 terminal, which provides automatic settings for numerous crops as well as monitoring all the operations.
This sits in the perfect position at the front of the new armrest that features the Powergrip controller and provides finger and thumb buttons for the most frequently used functions.
AGCO POWER 7.4 litre engines deliver a maximum power of 243hp (ISO) on the five-walker, MF ACTIVA 7345, while a 30hp boost for unloading takes the 276hp max power to 306hp on the MF ACTIVA 7347, which has six straw-walkers.
Both MF ACTIVA S combines are available with the addition of a Multi Crop Separator (MCS), which provides enhanced threshing while remaining gentle on the straw. A full maize kit or a universal concave can be installed for use in sunflower, maize or small grains. A special rice cylinder and peg and tooth option are also available.
Massey Ferguson is also introducing new features on the five-walker MF BETA 7360 and MF 7370, six-walker combine harvesters, which further enhance performance on these popular machines.
The latest MF BETA 7300 Series combines are powered by advanced six cylinder AGCO POWER engines, with the 330hp, 8.4 litre capacity version in the MF 7370 and PL models with 30hp of extra power for unloading. The 7.4 litre engine, powering the MF 7360 and PL generates 276hp for the machines plus 30hp boost.
A new option for the latest MF BETA combines is AutoGuide XLS automatic steering, which can provide accuracy down to 5cm to ensure the combine takes a full cut on each and every run.
All MF BETA six-walker combines benefit from a new six-row straw chopper, which is designed to provide the consistent chopping and spreading performance for users working with reduced tillage operations.
Both the MF BETA 7360 and MF 7370 combines are available with Massey Ferguson's innovative ParaLevel front-axle system, which provides automatic side-to-side levelling across slopes of up to 20%. Using a novel parallelogram linkage, the compact and clever system connects the front wheel hubs to the chassis via a lower triangular-shaped bracket and a link arm above – forming a parallelogram shaped linkage.
The addition of the new 'Integrale' option to PL combines provides complete levelling. This raises and lowers the rear of the machine to compensate for working on slopes – providing uphill levelling of up to 30% as well as the standard 20% side to side compensation. Four-wheel drive is standard on all PL and PLi models.
Thermochemical Processing: Converting Biomass into Fuels and Chemicals
By: Robert C. Brown, Director, and Robert Mills, Communications Specialist, Bioeconomy Institute, Iowa State University
The use of fermentation to produce ethanol from corn and other biomass is well known in the agricultural world. There are, however, other technologies that can convert biomass into fuels and chemicals. Foremost among these are thermochemical processes, which use heat and catalysis to break down biomass to intermediates that can be upgraded to transportation fuels.
One advantage of thermochemical processing is that the end result can be "drop-in fuels," those that are fully compatible with the existing fuel infrastructure. While not perfect, these drop-in fuels are good enough to run in today's engines without modification.
Another advantage to thermochemical processing is that most systems can work with a variety of biomass feedstocks. Often the feedstock is lignocellulosic biomass, such as corn stover, switchgrass, miscanthus, wood, etc. But thermochemical processing can also use lipid-rich biomass such as distillers dried grains and algae as well as mixed wastes from commercial and municipal sources.
There are two basic types of thermochemical processing, indirect and direct liquefaction. Indirect liquefaction includes gasification, where the solid biomass is heated to create synthesis gas, or syngas, that is subsequently upgraded to liquid fuels. Various catalysts are then used to convert the gas into alcohols or hydrocarbons. The advantages of gasification is that the process produces a uniform product and it is commercially proven. Gasification, however, requires technologies to clean the gases, which are still under development, and the capital costs can be high.
Direct liquefaction uses heat and pressure to convert the biomass into liquids which can then be further upgraded into finished products. Direct liquefaction includes pyrolysis and solvent liquefaction. In the case of pyrolysis, biomass is heated in the absence of oxygen. The process yields bio-oil, syngas, and a solid product known as biochar. The bio-oil can be upgraded to drop-in fuels. Pyrolysis can be performed at relatively small scales, allowing it to take place close to the source of biomass rather than moving biomass to one large, centralized processing facility. One of the major problems with pyrolysis is that the bio-oil is unstable, complicating its conversion into fuels.
At Iowa State University, we have invented a process to condense the pyrolysis gases in fractions, resulting in better, more stable products. The economics of fast pyrolysis are promising. In addition to producing fuels and chemicals from the bio-oil, the biochar may also have economic value. Consisting mostly of carbon, biochar can be used a soil amendment, helping retain moisture and nutrients. There is also research underway to use biochar as a filter medium for purifying water.
Solvent liquefaction, or solvolysis, is similar to pyrolysis except that it is performed in a solvent at elevated pressure. Though the fundamental chemistry of solvolysis is not well understood, the technology has promising economics. The process can upgrade bio-oil in a way similar to oil refining, and it can create sugars which can be further upgraded without expensive enzymes.
In addition to extensive research into thermochemical technologies, there are also many efforts underway to commercialize these technologies. Like all start-ups, these efforts have met with various degrees of success. There are, however, several pilot-scale systems being tested and commercial plants being built.
Bioenergy is a complex topic. There are many pathways from raw material to finished product. What's more, bioenergy technology must be viewed in context of larger energy issues and policies. You can learn more in a book written for the general public, "Why are We Producing Biofuels," by Robert C. Brown and Tristan R. Brown. The book is available on Amazon. You can read the first chapter for free online at: http://www.brownia.com/content/whyareweproducingbiofuels_excerpt.pdf.
The King of Collection
Little known to our dealers and for many of our employees is the fact that our large square baler, the 2170XD and now the 2270XD, is recognized as the "King of Collection" for the baling of corn stover and wheat straw for the fledgling cellulosic ethanol industry. For over 5 years, AGCO has been working with both leading industry and university associates to develop an economical biomass feedstock supply chain. Now our balers are the centerpiece of the supply chain critical to the success of the first 3 major projects for the industry. These three projects are Abengoa's Hugoton, KS project; Dupont's Nevada, IA project; and POET/DSM's project in Emmetsburg, IA. Each one is making ethanol from corn stover. Taken together these projects will require over 1,000,000 dry tons of material or roughly 1.8 million bales of which over 1.5 million will be large squares. With the corn harvest lasting only 6-8 weeks, to say there is intense activity for the baling of corn stover is a huge understatement.
Whether collecting this material for his or her self or having a professional harvester do it, this is a source of additional income for our farmers. Data has also shown an additional benefit resulting from this undertaking of residue management. With corn yields continually increasing, our farmers are producing rising amounts of corn stover as well. In fact so much residue is available after harvest that leaving it all on the field is not providing the same benefit it has in the past. The evidence is clear that removing some of the stover results in better yields in a corn on corn rotation. Uniformity of seed placement and depth, faster soil warming, less nitrogen fixing and less disease all help increase yields from 5-10%; this with the added benefit of less tilling.
Last year, during the 2013 corn harvest we had over 100 of our 2170's and 2170XD's at work making over 1,000,000 bales of corn stover for the ethanol industry. This amounted to over 90% of the large square balers working in this market. AGCO is working through product development to continue to improve our large square baler to support this dynamic new industry and our farmers. Better densities; data acquisition, management and evaluation; all helping to improve the operators of our equipment; and producing the most reliable and efficient large square baler in the market. This makes it easy to understand why our large square baler is considered the "King of Collection".

She's Number One
This is the story of a long-distance love affair, involving not one, not two, but three men infatuated with one "old girl." Longtime readers of FarmLife magazine may recall an article from the fall 2008 issue about two British brothers, Steven and Kevin Clarke, who became fascinated with the American wheat harvest after watching a 1976 BBC documentary on the topic. The 50-minute special featured a certain combine—the Massey Ferguson® 760, which, for the boys, became a focal point, an embodiment of much of the "wonder and curiosity" the documentary had instilled in them.
Raised on a farm, the Clarkes themselves grew up to farm and custom harvest with their own fleet of Massey Ferguson combines in North Norfolk, England, about a three-hour drive northeast of London. One of their favorite things to do with their time off is visit their friend Delbert Joyner near Enid, Okla., and help with his wheat harvest.
For six years now, the Clarkes have kept their own MF760 at Joyner's farm and recently added another very special model—the "old girl" referred to earlier, which just happened to be the first MF760 to come off the production line in 1971.
Found several years ago in the corner of a Kansas wheat field, it had been parked there for 33 years before the Clarkes and Marvin Helland, another American friend and custom harvester from North Dakota, convinced the owner to sell it.
Thought to quite possibly be a terminal case because of how long it sat in the elements unused, the original MF760 is now running again, thanks to its hardy construction and the efforts of its three enthusiastic new owners. Amazingly, "number one" helped complete the harvest at the Joyner farm this year, and all involved hope she'll continue working for many years to come.

Rarely are proposed statutes models of clear and precise writing. But H.B.2331, sponsored by Reps. Tom Boone and Sam Crump, is exactly that. It provides that Arizona cities and counties "shall not enact an ordinance or resolution that in any way limits or prohibits the lawful enforcement of the United States immigration laws."
That such a law is necessary owes to the decisions of some municipalities--at one time including Phoenix--to prohibit police officers from questioning suspects about their immigration status or from providing information about suspected illegal immigrants to federal authorities.
Immigration is perhaps our state's most divisive issue. Personally, I favor significant reform of immigration laws. But it is one thing to advocate reform, and quite another for elected officials who take an oath to uphold the law to refuse to enforce existing laws or to obstruct such enforcement.
That's one reason why since law school I've never run for public office: I know I'd have a problem enforcing certain laws, and I probably would end up having to sue myself over something. My ideals lend themselves more to suing elected officials than to being one.
The Arizona Republic reports that Rep. Ben Miranda objects to the bill because it dictates law-enforcement priorities. No it doesn't. Local law-enforcement agencies would continue to be free to prioritize immigration-related crimes or crimes against people and property. Indeed, we are in the midst of a healthy and vibrant debate over which emphasis better promotes public safety.
The bill removes from the discretion of cities and counties--which are, after all, created by and subject to state law--only the power to thumb their nose at immigration laws. If we are to be a nation governed by the rule of law, such a step, regrettably, is necessary.

text: I have a few questions and hope someone could help me. I have been making cakes to use under MMF. I have only used buttercream icing between the layers and over the cake before the fondant. I REALLY want to start using tasty fillings other than buttercream but I am scared that it will not hold up between the layers. What is a good base for fillings? I would like a thick creamy maybe whipped filling that I can add fruit, crumbled cookies, etc too. Should I cut my cake in layers to make them thinner and use more filling? Plus it has to hold the fondant. I love buttercream but I want something different. One more thing...Is cheesecake or a filling like cheesecake good to use? I have had pieces of cakes from restaurants and the filling is sooo thick and very creamy, but sturdy...maybe this is cheesecake? lol sorry I can't remember. I know one is Olive Garden, and it's a chocolate cake. That cake has a very nice creamy filling in between the cake layers...it was sooo good. That's the kind I want to make. I'm new at this too, so forgive me for not being specific lol. I am just getting tired of buttercream filling.

Green tea is made from the dried leaves of the same plant as traditional tea, an evergreen shrub native to Asia. However, traditional tea leaves are fermented, and green tea leaves are steamed but unfermented. Green tea may be brewed and drunk or ingested in extracted tablet or capsule form. It has multiple components that are thought to have antioxidant and anticancer effects. Green tea contains polyphenols and catechins as well as caffeine, but many extracts have been decaffeinated.
Green tea is said to have multiple health benefits, none of which are supported by strong scientific evidence. It has been used for cancer prevention, weight loss, serum lipid reduction, prevention of coronary artery disease, memory enhancement, relief of osteoarthritis pain, treatment of menopausal symptoms, and longevity.
Adverse effects are related to effects of caffeine. They include insomnia, anxiety, tachycardia, and mild tremor. Pregnant women should avoid excessive caffeine.
