Ice, blowing snow make travel difficult; region under blizzard watch Tuesday, Wednesday
FARGO - In an accident that bore several eerie similarities to one that killed four North Dakota State University students near Alexandria, Minn., on Feb. 20, a Fargo man and his passenger were injured when icy conditions caused his eastbound vehicle to cross the Interstate 94 median and strike a westbound semi trailer.

Curcumin (/ˈkərkjuːmən/) is a diarylheptanoid. It is the principal curcuminoid of turmeric, which is a member of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae). Turmeric's other two curcuminoids are desmethoxycurcumin and bis-desmethoxycurcumin. The curcuminoids are natural phenols that are responsible for the yellow color of turmeric. Curcumin can exist in several tautomeric forms, including a 1,3-diketo form and two equivalent enol forms. The enol form is more energetically stable in the solid phase and in solution.[1]
Curcumin can be used for boron quantification in the curcumin method. It reacts with boric acid to form a red-color compound, rosocyanine.
Curcumin is a bright-yellow color and may be used as a food coloring. As a food additive, its E number is E100.[2]
Curcumin incorporates several functional groups. The aromatic ring systems, which are phenols, are connected by two α,β-unsaturated carbonyl groups. The diketones form stable enols and are readily deprotonated to form enolates; the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl group is a good Michael acceptor and undergoes nucleophilic addition. The structure was first identified in 1910 by J. Miłobędzka, Stanisław Kostanecki and Wiktor Lampe.[3]
Curcumin is used as an indicator for boron.[4]
The biosynthetic route of curcumin has proven to be very difficult for researchers to determine. In 1973, Roughly and Whiting proposed two mechanisms for curcumin biosynthesis. The first mechanism involved a chain extension reaction by cinnamic acid and 5 malonyl-CoA molecules that eventually arylized into a curcuminoid. The second mechanism involved two cinnamate units coupled together by malonyl-CoA. Both mechanisms use cinnamic acid as their starting point, which is derived from the amino acid phenylalanine. This is noteworthy because plant biosyntheses employing cinnamic acid as a starting point are rare compared to the more common use of p-coumaric acid.[5] Only a few identified compounds, such as anigorufone and pinosylvin, use cinnamic acid as their start molecule.[6][7] An experimentally backed route was not presented until 2008. This proposed biosynthetic route follows both the first and second mechanisms suggested by Roughley and Whiting. However, the labeling data supported the first mechanism model in which 5 malonyl-CoA molecules react with cinnamic acid to form curcumin. However, the sequencing in which the functional groups, the alcohol and the methoxy, introduce themselves onto the curcuminoid seems to support more strongly the second proposed mechanism.[5] Therefore, it was concluded the second pathway proposed by Roughly and Whiting was correct.
^ Malonyl-CoA should be labeled 5.
Preliminary research for potential health effects[edit]
A survey of the literature shows a number of potential effects under study and that daily doses over a 3-month period of up to 12 grams were safe.[8]
Clinical trials in humans are studying the effect of curcumin on various diseases, including multiple myeloma, pancreatic cancer, myelodysplastic syndromes, colon cancer, psoriasis, arthritis, major depressive disorder and Alzheimer's disease.[9][10][11][12][13][14]
A 2014 review of human clinical trials found no benefit to 5-8 weeks of curcumin consumption compared to placebo or no treatment for patients with major depressive disorder.[15]
A number of trials studying curcumin efficacy and safety revealed poor absorption and low bioavailability.[11]
A 2015 review conducted on rats determined that Circumin Analog Y20 decreased cardiac inflammation, oxidative stress and eventually improved the cardiac remodeling by mitigating cardiac disorganization, hypertrophy, fibrosis and apoptosis.[16]
In Phase I clinical trials, dietary curcumin was shown to exhibit poor bioavailability (i.e., low levels in plasma and tissues).[17] Potential factors that limit the bioavailability of curcumin include insolubility in water (more soluble in alkaline solutions), poor absorption, rapid metabolism and systemic elimination. Numerous approaches to increasing curcumin bioavailability have been explored, including the use of absorption factors such as piperine.[17] Because of its stability and physical properties, pure curcumin can be vaporized or smoked, obviating the need for oral absorption factors. This ROA however carries higher risk of chelating iron from hemoglobin, and potentially higher risk of carcinogenicity.
The bioavailability of curcumin ingested in foods may be increased as a result of cooking or dissolution in oil.[18]
Potential risks and side-effects[edit]
Clinical studies in humans with high doses (2–12 grams) of curcumin have shown few side-effects,[19] with some subjects reporting mild nausea or diarrhea.[20] More recently, curcumin was found to alter iron metabolism by chelating iron and suppressing the protein hepcidin, potentially causing iron deficiency in susceptible patients.[21]
Possible diagnostic use[edit]
Preliminary research has found that curcuminoid binds to amyloid proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease.[22] Because curcumin increases fluorescent activity after it binds to amyloid protein, curcumin is being studied as a possible identifier. Tests have detected amyloid proteins in human eyes, offering the possibility that simple eye exams could provide early detection of the disease.[23][24]

Odyssey gets all four commands, but not the Bortasqu'...
It is not so much about getting that fourth command for the sake of completion, but to get the aggro aura in order to be a viable tank, since it will be an integral cornerstone for any future hi-end tank (and yes, they do have a purpose in STO). As a KDF player I want to have a Klingon-design ship choice to do that, and not being pushed to a non-Klingon design
And as I said, there are plenty of sensible choices: The Vo'quv, the Bortasqu', the Negh'Var...
I know that these ships, in contrast to Odyssey and co., can equip cannons. So why not give these Klingon ships three commands as it is, but a different variation, i.e., Attract Fire, Strategic Maneuvering, and Shield Frequency Mod. ? No Weapon System Efficiency in order to compensate for their cannons.
Otherwise my question would be: What is the supposed niche for a Bortasqu' War Cruiser or Negh'Var in PvE endgame? Damage dealing?? In every respect there are better choices amongst cruisers, e.g., the Vor'Cha. Tanking? Without the aggro aura they have a profound disadvantage here, too...

The Help isn't intended to be so much a movie about the ugliness of the era than an optimistic tale of what can spring from that kind of ugliness, about the ability of people to love one another even when they're surrounded by hatred. And on that level, The Help succeeds wonderfully, a warm and sweet song of hope.
A deeply touching human story filled with humor and heartbreak is rare in any movie season, especially summer. That's what makes The Help an exhilarating gift.
Davis and Spencer give faces and fully-fleshed out lives to women who must have been more than what they did for a living as The Help.
The "black maid" may be a cliché. But when was the last time we saw a story told from her point of view?

Aug 11, 2011I can honestly say I thought this movie was going to be incredibly sappy and cheesy, and was not much looking forward to seeing it. While itI can honestly say I thought this movie was going to be incredibly sappy and cheesy, and was not much looking forward to seeing it. While it did tidy-up the plot a bit too neatly towards the end, for the most part it felt surprisingly real, at least within the trappings of the film. You should go into the movie thinking that it is a work of fiction based on a real time period in U.S. history, and not look for everything to seem absolutely realistic within the context of that actual time period in U.S. history. The acting was superb across the board. This should be the film that makes Octavia Spencer and Jessica Chastain stars; their characters felt like breakout roles for them. This should be the film that makes hearthrobs out Chris Lowell and Mike Vogel, two stunningly gorgeous men who seem to have real acting chops to match. This film should remind us what cinematic treasures Cissy Spacek and Cicely Tyson are. This film shows that Emma Stone and Bryce Dallas Howard have more impressive acting ranges than one might think based on their past work alone. However, the star of this film is Viola Davis, who is deserving of serious Oscar-buzz. Emma Stone may have top-billing for the film, but Ms. Davis's Aibileen Clark is the heart and soul of the film. You laugh with her, you cry with her, you get angry with her. Its one of those rare performances that breaks your heart and at the same time gives your heart hope. It is one of the best performances I have seen in a film in awhile, and should vault Ms. Davis on to the A-List of actresses working today. Besides the performances, the sets, costumes and all other technical aspects of the film seemed stunningly authentic. As I said before, if there is anything to fault this film for, its that the storylines wrap-up a little too neatly at the end. It also may bother some that the Emma Stone character Skeeter leaves for NYC while Minny and Aibileen stay behind in Mississippi, but at least the filmmakers take the time to address that situation in the film, with Minny and Aibileen urging Skeeter to go against her feelings that she is betraying them by leaving them there. In the end, she leaves and Minny and Aibileen are still in Mississippi, still dealing with the harshness of discrimination. Yes, that frankly sucks, but it is probably fairly realistic to that time period, and there is some hope given to Aibileen and Minny at the film's end, hope for a better life with greater dignity. This film was made to be inspiring and uplifting, and it left me with those feelings in spades.… Full Review »

Anybody who didn't know what it had to say has been in a coma for over half a century. But that isn't my problem with it.
Rather, it is a mawkish, sophomoric, soporifically paced, predictable, grotesquely populated, "young adult" CHIC FLIC. Think of sitting through "Steel Magnolias" with a mixed race cast and "We Shall Overcome" as its incidental music. Twice. Non-stop.
We need a new rating system, one that advises single adult males that attending particular movies can be injurious to their sanity. Since I was stuck in the middle of a full row, I refrained from disturbing my neighbors and so sat through the entire four and a half hours of it. (It wasn't that long? It sure seemed like it.) My desire, after the first fifteen minutes, was to leave, running to find the nearest sports bar as an antidote. And I hate sports bars.… Full Review »
Jan 20, 2012The Help is well intentioned. That doesn't make it any less racist in its (fictional) storyline based on the south in 1950's America, with theThe Help is well intentioned. That doesn't make it any less racist in its (fictional) storyline based on the south in 1950's America, with the idea that only a white woman can help black women find their voice. The only reason to see this film is the talent put forward by the electrifying Viola Davis and the gutsy performance from Octavia Spencer. Other than that, there's not much here with substance, and the more horrific events of the 1950's seem to be glossed over.… Full Review »

I didn't think this would work but decided to give it a try after reading several positive reviews.
I have never been so happy to be wrong! I'm not sure if hypnotizing is the right word but it does help to relax me and I have yet to stay awake for the entire recording. I wake up before the alarm goes off now feeling rested. I couldn't be happier with this purchase.

Sun Princess, where indeed !
We sailed from Fremantle on 3rd Sept, after her re-fit , in a suite. We could not open the balcony door as it was so stiff, had to call for assistance. The balcony was " grubby " floor matting paint splattered and marked ( needed replacing )walls dirty and exposed pipes lagged with cloth ? rust in evidence - think the " re-fit " had missed this one.
The so called " Speciality Restaurant " ( the only one )was merely a screened off area of the cafeteria, allowing anyone to walk through, our food had to be sent back as it was lukewarm - for this, one paid $20 per person extra plus another $10 if you wanted crayfish. The Horizon Court buffet was canteen style with plastic plates, plastic cups and wooden stirring sticks.
The pool area is dominated by the large cinema screen blaring away all day - if you want a quiet relax you can go to " The Sanctuary " area and pool - at an extra cost of $30 per person per day and the " pool " is a small paddling pool with about 6 inches More of water ! The so called " Vista Lounge " is not actually a " lounge " it's a theatre. We agree with "QueenK2's" regarding the shows and the Duo singer was deaf - not possible to have a quiet conversation and drink in the bar. The Terrace Grill ( sounds good ? )served Mrs Mac's pies
The pre dinner dance floor on deck 7 was not used as there was no piano or music.
There is more , but that's enough, times have changed, sorry Princess but value for what we paid - no. Less

No inquest into deaths of Lisa Gibson and her children
There will be no inquest into the tragic deaths of Lisa Gibson, 32, and her two children, the office of the chief medical examiner announced today.
In a statement put out by the province, Dr. A. Thambirajah Balachandra, the chief medical examiner, determined an inquest will not be called regarding the death of Gibson and her children.
The two young children, two-year-old Anna and three-month-old Nicholas, were found unresponsive in a bathtub at the Gibson home on July 24. Lisa Gibson, who had been suffering from postpartum depression, was believed to have been the last person in contact with the children and disappeared from the scene.
Her body was recovered from the Red River a few days later. Following the deaths of her children, she committed suicide.
On Oct. 3, Winnipeg police finally confirmed Lisa Gibson murdered her two children by drowning and then took her own life.
At the time police said "time-consuming crime lab results" and "in-depth investigating work surrounding forensics" delayed the release of the information about the case.
According to the chief medical examiner, the three deaths were preventable. Under section 20 of The Fatality Inquiries Act, if the chief medical examiner is of the opinion a death or deaths "might have been prevented if precautions had been taken or preventive measures had been in place, the chief medical examiner may make recommendations to the minister, to departments and agencies of government or to other persons as to possible precautions or preventive measures."
The following recommendation was made to The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Manitoba on Tuesday: "That the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Manitoba investigate the diagnosis, treatment, and management of Lisa Gibson, and, take adequate action to educate the medical community to prevent similar tragedies in the future."
Updated on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 at 12:14 PM CST: Adds the police announced Oct. 3 that Anna, 2, and Nicholas, three months, were victims of homicide and Lisa Gibson died as a result of suicide.

Lucifer's Elixir

"Lucifer's Elixir is a self-promotional piece that I produced and handed out to colleagues and confidants. Each swing-top bottle included a vintage skeleton key and a booklet explaining symbology, numerology and other "secrets of the universe". It was meant to invoke an initiation into a secret society a la the Freemasons or Skull & Bones. What better to ponder the meaning of the universe than some nice bourbon whiskey!"

"Auténtico Tequila Alacrán (ATA) – Authentic Scorpion Tequila. This is not a brand or some product created by a transnational corporation. Instead, it was made by a group of friends in Mexico City, who rebelled against the status quo and created this unconventionally pure white spirit concealed within a matte-black bottle. The special and rubbery (some say velvety) "Soft Touch" finish is a unique texture, never before applied on a tequila bottle, or any other that we know of. The shape was inspired by a canteen crossed with a liquor flask and Its rugged skin makes it the ultimate urban trend. The tequila is absolutely delicious by the way."

"If you've got a crisp bread that actually's got flavour, you'd be a fool not to put it in the heart of the brand strategy and packaging concept. So that's exactly what design agency A-B-D did.
The task of creating a new brand in one of the most traditional categories in the Swedish food markets isn't that easy. Especially not when the world leader is Swedish with nearly 70 % of the market and Swedes eat more crisp bread then any one else, making it as Swedish as IKEA and the traditional design nothing you muck about with.

"Tupelo, the birth place of Elvis, known for it's savage floods, Tupelo trees and now, a new wine brand. Wayne Anderson (aka Killibinbin) wanted to set up a new boutique winery, Tupelo. A producer of limited production fine wines. The idea; simple photographic underwater imagery, of an Elvis inspired character, surrounded by the flood waters of the king's home town; an imaginative reflection of the flooded market for Australian wines.
The Identity has been left in a simple text form to let the striking imagery work as a part of the branding across packaging and other applications. Keeping the logo simple meant the 2 elements of logo and imagery did not compete with each other, rather, they work together to create Tupelo's visual identity."

"This is Brujeria (the Spanish word for witchcraft) from Misfits Wine Co. A Soul Retrieval Nostrum. Ancient arts and dark fruits forged through toil to respond to clichéd and lifeless marketing department wines. Formed whole in light and dark to strike fear into drones and hex the elitist wine types.
Inspiration draws from Latin witchcraft posters. This release from Misfits Wine Co has been created to stand out and tie into their ethos; the rejection of the conventional. For our client testimonial; one of the Misfits owners had the branding tattooed (where we don't know). Timeless!"

"Pure Bake Shop is a Toledo based bakery that specializes in gluten free products. The bakery uses all natural ingredients including organic beans, soy, and nut flours for their baked goods. I wanted to accentuate the "purity" of the bakeshop. The mixture of large, but thin typography, and dot patterns along with the soft vellum packaging create a mood that encompasses the pure aspect on which the bakeshop takes pride."

We wanted to create a mix of tradition and modernity, so we mixed old traditional materials such as cork and wool with some new hi-tech look materials like aluminum details."
Linnaea Vineyard
April 28, 2010 | 3 Comments
Designed by Mash | Country: Australia
"2 winemakers of the Napa Valley are now on their way to creating their own boutique winery, Linnaea. The founders both have backgrounds in medical anthropology and plant biochemistry. They are also the face of the brand, doing most of the sales/customer relations work themselves. It made sense to design wine packaging that reflected the personalities of the brand owners, albeit in an unconventional way so that the wine consumer, spoilt for choice, would take notice.
Wine names were created using the Linnaean Binomial system. 'Linnaea Rhizotomi', being the 1st release wine. Rhizotomis were the forefathers of chemists and medics, they had knowledge of the plants, when to collect, season, medicinal effects etc. A modern day, slightly twisted and beautiful interpretation of a Rhizotomi was created. A character with knowledge of plant-life, nature and the workings of the universe. This reflected the backgrounds of the brand founders and creates a unique and surreal package standing out amongst the crowd."

This was my first rig and blend shape character for my maya class.
We had to use an 11 second sound clip and animate to it with blend shapes.
This whole project- from character sketch to modeling to rigging to animating was due within 2 weeks.
We could choose a clip from the 11 Second Club or find another 11 second clip. I used the "speeding" clip from Universal'd Liar Liar. This clip is for educational purposes only and will not be used to gain money or anything of that sort, it is purely to learn lip syncing in Maya. This falls under the appropriation/parody category under law.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Hotel room trashed by... census-taker?
OTTAWA -- Who knew census-takers could behave like rock stars?
Broken furniture. Stained carpets. Marker-smeared bed sheets and linens. Damaged wallpaper.
It may sound like something out of an old Led Zeppelin biography, but newly released documents show one enumerator's wild romp left Statistics Canada with a hefty bill for a trashed hotel room.
The government first reported the payment last fall in its annual Public Accounts documents. But now there's new photographic proof census-takers know how to party.
Eight of them rolled into Brantford, Ont., in July 2011 and checked into the Hampton Inn and Suites. They were enumerators from the East Coast, conscripted to help with census work on the Six Nations reserve.
Much of what happened over the next 11 days is unclear. Statistics Canada blacked out key details in documents released to The Canadian Press under the Access to Information Act. What is clear is the trail of destruction left behind was a pricey one. A broken luggage bench cost $800. It cost another $195 for a broken luggage rack, $695 for a broken chair and $495 for other damaged furniture.
Throw in steam cleaning for the carpets and taxes and the total bill for the damages came to nearly $6,000.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Bryce Petty and Baylor's vaunted offense needed some help from the defense to build a lead against TCU.
When that cushion was in jeopardy in the final seconds, the secondary came through one more time for the No. 9 Bears.
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Bryce Petty and Baylor's vaunted offense needed some help from the defense to build a lead against TCU.
When that cushion was in jeopardy in the final seconds, the secondary came through one more time for the No. 9 Bears.
Petty threw two touchdown passes and ran for a score, Baylor returned two interceptions for touchdowns and turned away an upset bid with a late pick in the end zone for a 41-38 victory against TCU on Saturday.
"For the defense to have played like they did, I mean, I can't say enough about the defense," Petty said. "The defense is the MVP of this team, the way they turned it around, the way they kept us in games."
The Bears (10-1, 7-1 Big 12) scored 21 consecutive points on either side of halftime with just 1 yard from their high-powered offense and bounced back from a blowout loss at Oklahoma State to maintain their hopes for a share of the conference title.
Baylor could win the league outright and qualify for a BCS bid, likely the Fiesta Bowl, if it beats Texas and the Cowboys lose to Oklahoma next Saturday.
The Horned Frogs (4-8, 2-7) were in position to tie at the Baylor 23 in the final seconds when Casey Pachall decided to go to the end zone and threw his third interception.
Sam Holl dove in front of Brandon Carter just as the ball reached the TCU receiver inside the 5, causing it to pop into the air off Carter's hands and into the arms of Terrell Burt as he crossed the goal line.
Baylor's Orion Stewart and Eddie Lackey had interception returns for scores off Pachall on either side of halftime.
"It came down to my three interceptions that cost us the game," said Pachall, a senior playing his final game after missing most of last season to enter a substance abuse program following a DWI arrest and getting knocked out of five games this year with a broken arm.
TCU's second season in the Big 12 ended with the school's fewest wins since going 1-10 in 1997.
"The bottom line is, we should have beat them," TCU coach Gary Patterson said. "That was our bowl game."
The Baylor offense had running backs Lache Seastrunk and Glasco Martin for the first time after both missed two games with injuries, and the Bears started fast.
Baylor ran 40 plays in the first quarter and had 201 yards before sputtering the rest of the way and finishing with a season-low 370 yards — 292 yards off their nation-leading average of 662. The Frogs outgained the Bears by 40.

The polio-free certification given by the World Health Organization to its South-East Asia region (Editorial, March 31) is a historic public health achievement which, a decade ago, would have been thought of as an impossibility considering that India had almost 50,000 children affected every year when the government started its mission in 1995. Nineteen years ago India had the highest number of polio cases in the world. So when India is now polio-free, it means a quarter of the world's population is also polio-free. Isn't this an even bigger news story?
Abhiroop U.V.,
The gains of the polio-free status will be neutralised if neighbouring countries do not implement vaccination programmes with the same ardour as India has done. Bacterial and viral organisms are not restrained by international borders. It also meansIndia must be on guard at all times.
H.N. Ramakrishna,

India's success has silenced critics who predicted that polio would remain prevalent given the low overall standards of sanitation and hygiene. Undeniably, WHO, UNICEF, Rotary International and all the government agencies concerned must be complimented for their untiring efforts. The need of the hour is to maintain vigilance. The occasion should also be the moment when efforts made by Dr. Jonas Salk and Dr. Albert Sabin to ensure a polio-free world should be gratefully recalled.

Baseball: Ellsworth comes back, beats Bloomer
Trailing 4-0 after the top of the second inning, Ellsworth was able to regain its composure and came back to beat Bloomer, 8-6, in non-conference play Monday in Hager City.
The Panthers cut into the four-run deficit with a run in the bottom half of the second, followed by a pair of runs in the third. Then in the fourth, Ellsworth put together a four-run bottom of the fourth, giving the team the lead for good.

Windows 7 comes with a new feature that allows computers that run it to be converted more easily into a virtual WiFi hotspot, a hub to which other devices including smartphones and internet appliances, can connect seamlessly.
So why would you convert your computer into a wireless router? For a start, it removes the need to have yet another peripheral, especially useful when you roam along or travel in group plus it saves power especially if you intend to use it on a 24 hour basis.
Then there's the fact that a computer that's used as a wireless router is more easily upgradable, just use another WiFi adaptor; this means that an old P4 computer can become a 802.11n WiFi router just by adding a £20 card.
Indeed, even a laptop can be transformed into a wireless router and most recent ones already have a 802.11n adaptor already. Finally, an adhoc wireless router reduces security risks because it would be created on demand rather than always left on as routers are normally.
Arguably, you don't get the four LAN ports you usually get on a router but if wireless is your preferred mode of connection, then why not.
Windows 7 was supposed to offer a Virtual WiFi option as an integral part of its feature list but that never happened. A nifty little application called Connectify enables the miracle to happen. Connect any internet line to your laptop for example and Connectify will transform it into a generic provider of bandwidth.
This works as well for mobile broadband dongles, cable, ADSL and even tethered phones. We have yet to see whether it can actually be used as a repeater though (albeit an expensive one).
Connectify uses features that are present in all versions of Windows 7 (except Starter edition) and Windows Server 2008 R2 onwards. It won't work with other current Windows OSes with or without service packs.Leave a comment on this article

Humorist's Ohio Home On National Register Of Historic Places
The suburban ranch-style home in Ohio where humor writer Erma Bombeck launched her nationally syndicated column has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Listen to the Story
The Ohio State University Senate voted yesterday in favor of switching from a quarter based academic year to a semester-based year. If the change is approved by the university's board of trustees, Ohio State would be the last public institution of higher leaning in Ohio to decide to make the switch.
Courses at Ohio State University have been taught on the quarter system since 1922. Two attempts during the last two decades to change to semesters failed. The change has been a contentious issue among faculty. During the meeting OSU Professor Rich Hart spoke in favor of maintaining the quarter system:
"Having smaller time periods encourages more diversity and a wider range of courses," Hart said. "The breadth of offerings in a quarter system simply cannot be matched by a semester system. Whereas the depth of coverage offered by quarters is at least as good or better than semesters."
Professor Richard Gunther took the opposing position. He reminded the Senate that the other 12 public universities in the University System of Ohio either use the semester system or they're in the process of changing to semesters
"We are now an integral part of the University System of Ohio," Gunther said. "And one of the prime goals of the governor and the chancellor for higher education is to enhance accessibility by improving the transferability of our courses."
After more than an hour of discussion members of the Senate cast their ballots. OSU President Gordon Gee announced the results:
"Ladies and gentlemen I have before me the vote," Gee said. "The vote is 91 in favor, 19 against, so our committee will continue to do its good work and thank you very much "
If the board of trustees approves, the change to semesters would occur in 2012. That's when Ohio University, Wright State University and the University of Cincinnati will also change from quarters to semesters.

What to do with fresh cranberries, not sauce please
Hi. I need help with my slightly compulsive shopping! We both prefer the canned cranberry jelly, but for some odd reason, I bought a bag of fresh cranberries. I have no idea what to do with them and feel a little silly.
I did a search, but I'm not too happy with the search function, seeing as how it can take me to a topic with 100 posts that I have to scan through only to find one reference to cranberries.
I am hoping for some ideas, mainly for muffins with the fresh berries. Does anyone think I'll have to cook and sweeten the berries first or can I just add them straight?
If there are any high-alt recipes, I'd love 'em, but I can always adjust a recipe, so anything yummy would be great.
Thank you!!
This recipe is a huge hit in my house. I hope you enjoy it!
cranberry apple crisp
3 c sliced apples
1-2 c cranberries (fresh)
3 tbsp flour
1/2 - 1 c sugar
pinch cinnamon
1/4 c chopped nuts
1 1/2 c oats
1/2 c flour
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c melted butter
combine filling ingred and pour into greased 11 x 7 baking dish. Mix topping ingredients until crumbly and sprinkle over filling.
bake 350 for 50 min or until golden. (great with vanilla ice cream)
My favorite use for fresh cranberries? Last year I just whipped an egg white, used that to coat the cranberries and then rolled them in sugar because I wanted them as a decoration for my pumpkin cheesecake. They were lovely, but I spent most of my time eating those sugar encrusted berries, they were so good.
Yes, I know all about the raw egg thing, but I have my own chickens and use my own eggs and the USDA can butt out. actually, I think you could accomplish the same thing with any wetting ingredient, even water. Orange juice might be good.....
There are pickled cranberries, cranberry chutney...neither of which I've made yet.
This one is on my to do list...
DESSERT Cranberry Walnut Tart via doucanoe
Sweet pastry dough
3 large eggs
2/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups chopped fresh or frozen cranberries (7 oz; thawed if frozen)
1 cup chopped walnuts (1/4 lb)
Special equipment: a 10- to 11-inch round tart pan (1 inch deep) with a removable bottom; pie weights or raw rice
Make shell:
Roll out dough into a 13-inch round (1/8 inch thick) on a floured surface with a floured rolling pin and fit into tart pan. Trim edge of dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang inward and press against side of pan to reinforce edge. Lightly prick bottom of shell all over with a fork, then chill 30 minutes.
Put oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 425F. Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights.
Bake until pastry is set and pale golden on rim, about 15 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights and bake shell until pale golden all over, 5 to 10 minutes more. Transfer shell in pan to a rack.
Make filling:
Move oven rack to middle position and reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
Whisk together eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, salt, and vanilla in a bowl until smooth, then stir in cranberries and walnuts.
Pour filling into shell and bake tart until filling is set and golden, 40 to 45 minutes. (If pastry edge darkens before tart is done, cover edge with a pie shield or foil.) Cool completely in pan on rack.
Cooks' notes:
 Tart can be baked 1 day ahead and kept, covered, at room temperature.
This is one of our favorites...
DESSERT Drenched Cranberry Cake via LoriJean
2 cups all\-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2\-1/2 tsp. baking powder
3 Tablespoons butter, melted
2/3 cup milk
1 egg
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries (or blueberries)
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Butter a 9\-inch round pan.
Sift the flour, sugar, and baking powder into a large bowl. Add the butter, milk, and egg. Beat for 2 minutes, or until smooth. Stir in the cranberries. Pour into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 1 hour, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool, then remove from pan when cool.
To make the sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the sugar, cream, and vanilla bean. Stir to mix well. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean.
Serve the cake with each individual slice generously drenched with the warmed sauce.
And these are decadent...Does anyone claim these so I can credit you?
DESSERT Cranberry Bliss Bars
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, packed
3 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all\-purpose flour
3/4 cup diced dried cranberries
6 ounces white chocolate, cut into chunks
4\-ounces cream cheese, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
4 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup diced dried cranberries
Drizzled Icing
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
2 teaspoons vegetable shortening
1\. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2\. Make cake by beating butter and brown sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla, ginger, and salt and beat well. Gradually mix in flour until smooth. Mix 3/4 cup diced dried cranberries and white chocolate into the batter by hand. Pour batter into a well\-greased 9x13\-inch baking pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly across the pan. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until cake is light brown on the edges. Allow cake to cool.
3\. Make frosting by combining softened cream cheese, 3 cups powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. When the cake has cooled, use a spatula to spread frosting over the top of the cake.
4\. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of diced cranberries over the frosting on the cake.
5\. Whisk together 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, and shortening. Drizzle icing over the cranberries in a sweeping motion or use a pastry bag with a fine tip to drizzle frosting across the top of the cake.
6\. Allow cake to sit for several hours, then slice the cake lengthwise (the long way) through the middle. Slice the cake across the width three times making a total of eight rectangular slices. Slice each of those rectangles diagonally creating 16 triangular slices.

Annie, the other day at Safeway I saw pasturized eggs in the shell. A dozen were well over $4. I was suprised to see that.
I have no hesitation using homegrown eggs in their raw form.
In the spring and summer I buy them from a friend.
The rest of the year.....I pay way more for lesser quality eggs...I'm trying to convince hubby I need a half dozen layers of my own..He does notice and prefer the homegrown eggs.
So, I'm salivating right now!!!
Thank you all so much, the recipes are making me want to bake them now instead of waiting till thursday.
I kind of like the idea of dipping them in surgar...I might not use the egg white, but I do like candy or anything similar!
I am going to have to think about which one I'm gonna use!! I may just go buy a few more bags...store them for later use...make all the recipes listed!
I am tempted, though, to go an easy route and add some chopped berries to the muffin recipe I have that is already high-alt adjusted...I'm not sure if that is lazy or just simple?!
Thanks all, it makes my planning so much easier.
I have an Ocean Spray Cookbook with over 200 recipes including appetizers, beverages, desserts and more (Copyright 1995). It uses both canned whole/jelled and fresh/frozen whole cranberries in the recipes. Many of the same recipes appear at their web site: http://www.oceanspray.com/recipes/
My all-time favorite use for fresh cranberries is this recipe:
(source: SuperFoods - by Steeven Pratt, M.D., and Kathy Matthews)
Makes about 3 cups (I tend to make half a recipe.)
1 12-oz. package Ocean Spray fresh or frozen cranberries, rinsed and drained
1 UNpeeled orange (washed), cut into eights and seeded
3/4 c. sugar (I use 1/3 c. agave nectar - low-glycemic)
Place half the cranberries and half the orange pieces in a food processor and process until the mixture is evenly chopped. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining cranberries and orange slices. Store in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to serve.
So simple - so tasty!
Cranberry Upside-Downer
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup minus 2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 chopped walnuts or pecans -
2 cups cranberries - I used fresh. If you are using frozen do not thaw)
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup cranberry jelly
Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F (180 degrees Celsius).
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan. Sprinkle 6 tablespoons of the sugar and cook, stirring, until the mixture comes to a boil. Pour this over the bottom of a 8 x 2 inch round cake pan. Scatter the nuts and top with the cranberries. Press down gently using your fingertips. If frozen berries were used this might cause the butter to congeal - don't worry as everything will melt in the oven. Set this aside.
Using a hand mixture beat the remaining 8 tablespoons of butter on medium speed until smooth. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and continue until the mixture is pale and creamy. If you used brown sugar like I did - it won't turn pale ;-). Beat for about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating for 1 minute after each addition. Pour in the vanilla.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and add half of the dry ingredients, mixing only until they disappear into the batter. Mix in the milk and then the remaining dry ingredients. Spoon the batter over the cranberries and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the cake is golden and a thin knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and run a blunt knife between the sides of the sides of the pan and the cake. Turn the cake out onto a serving platter.
Warm the jelly in a small saucepan over a low heat. Gently brush the glaze over the hot cake.
Storing recommendations: The cake is best served the day it is made, but it can be covered and kept at room temperature overnight. It's not such a great idea to freeze this, due to the cranberry topping.
This recipe was adapted from Baking: From My Home To Yours by Dorie Greenspan, Houghton Mifflin Company, November 2006.
I've always loved the cranbery-orange relish posted by Grainlady... found this variation last year in Southern Living .... Although the recipe says it can be held in fridge up to two weeks, I prefer to eat it right away .. the lime gets a bit bitter (at least for my taste)if it is held.
Cranberry-Key Lime Relish
1 (12-oz.) bag fresh cranberries*
4 Key limes
1 cup sugar
¼ cup fresh mint leaves
2 Tbsp. orange liqueur or fresh orange juice
1. Pulse all ingredients in a food processor 10 to 12 times or until finely chopped, stopping to scrape down sides. Cover and chill until ready to serve. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
* 1 (12-oz.) bag frozen cranberries, thawed, may be substituted. Note: Key limes are smaller, a bit more round, and have a thinner skin than Persian limes.
Sol's Cranberry Cream Scones are to die for... I need to make some this week!
Cranberry Cream Scones
2 cups unsifted AP flour, plus flour for dusting
1/3 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fresh cranberries
1 1/3 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon each melted butter and confectioners' sugar
Position the oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix the cranberries into the flour mixture.
Fold the whipped cream into the dry ingredients, just until it forms a rough, semi-cohesive mass.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead gently, only a few times, until the dough holds together. Lightly flour your hands and pat the dough into an 8" circle on a lined baking sheet (I place the dough on a baking stone, lined with parchment). Brush the surface with the butter and sprinkle with the powdered sugar*
Cut circle into 10 wedges, without detaching them. And bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden.
Cut into the pre-marked wedges after they're baked.
*I use granulated sugar
Cranberry salsa...serve with corn chips
Cranberry salsa BJ Irwin
1 12 oz package cranberries
chopped fine
1 8 oz can crushed pineapple with juice
1/3 cup cilantrochopped
1 seeded jalapeno pepper and chopped fine
¼ c. onion chopped
¼ cup green pepper chopped
1 tsp salt
2/3 cup sugar ( or less)
Delicious cranberry pie
2 c fresh cranberries
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup chopped nuts
2 eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 cup melted butter
Spread cranberries over bottom of a greased small square pyrex dish or pie dish
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup sugar and nuts
Beat eggs, add remaining 1 cup sugar. Add flour, melted butter, beat well.
Pour over cranberries
Bake 325 for l hour
Cranberry-Apple Casserole
3 cups peeled, chopped apples
2 cups fresh cranberries
3 Tbsp. flour
1 cup sugar
3 packets Cinnamon Spice Instant Oatmeal
3/4 cups chopped pecans/walnuts
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
Combine apples, cranberries and 2 Tbsp. flour. Toss to coat. Add 1 cup sugar and mix well. Place in a 2 qt. casserole dish.
Combine oatmeal, nuts, 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar and butter, mix well.
Spoon over fruit mixture. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes.
I grind them up, then grind two oranges, and one apple. Then I make a large box of red raspberry jello and put the entire ground mess in there. Really, the jello merely holds it together, you don't taste it. Then I thaw one to 2 bags of red raspberries, drain them, and put them in and mix gently. Then I chop about 1 cup of pecans and put them in. Sugar (or splenda) to taste. Set it overnight to firm up. Serve with whip cream. I get rave reviews on this. It's very rich and yummy, and you control the sweetness. The red raspberries are what makes it so good.
Sorry it took me so long to get back here and post this. I have no excuse, just didn't do it last night like I said I would! LOL

Melt butter in small saucepan. Stir in sugar then add cream and bring to
slow boil for 20 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and serve
warm, spooned over individual slices of cake.
You can also put cranberries in the turkey dressing. I roughly chopped them - just aiming to get them approximately halved so their juices would mix with the rest of the dressing.
For this weekend, I'll be making a cranberry fall crumble from Classic Home Desserts. It calls for 18 oz of cranberries plus a couple of pears and a couple of apples so its kind of similar to the cranberry pear pie above except with an oat based crumb topping and no bottom crust.
Halved and put into a quick bread also is good. The recipe I use is for an orange cranberry bread.
You can make a Mayflower Martini!! You coat the glass with sweet vermouth, then put in one part white cranberry juice to two parts gin (or two parts juice to one part gin, depending on strength). Float a few little cranberries in the drink for granish!! It's so cute! (Toss them at the end of the drink of course!)
You all are so full of ideas...yummy ideas!! I have changed my mind several times on what I would do with the berries. At first it was the "put them in your favourite recipe" idea that had me...it is a streussel topped muffin. But I am now taken over by the link Ohiomom posted for the cranberry-pear pie!! It looks so yummy! I don't drink alcohol, but I think I will save a few berries to float on either our hot, mulled apple cider or our bubbly water/cranberry juice drink we make...I'll bet they are cute with those berries wobbling about the drink!
Thanks again everyone. I'll bet lots of us get good ideas from your posts...
I freeze them, right in the bag they come in. To use in baking, I take them and "grind" them in the food processor. I find I like their taste, texture, and colour in baked goods better this way.
Today, I made a sort of slaw with apple, cabbage, carrot, red pepper, and some paper thin sliced frozen cranberries. A tiny splash of champagne vinegar, some salt and pepper (no oil). I didn't grate anything, but rather did the french style of taking forever to cut everything by hand into thin planks, then into very thin strips LOL. Hey, I needed something to do while my pork chops and potatoes were roasting.
I chilled the slaw for a bit, and it turned out better than I had imagined. I think next time I might prefer rice vinegar because it is a little sweeter, but overall I was impressed - since I didn't think I would like apple slaw. The cranberries really added to the taste, texture, and colour. If they had been raw, I don't think it would have worked as well.
That slaw actually sounds very yummy!!
I did it! I used Ohiomom's recipe and made my first pie in like ten years, and it was my first high-alt pie!! Yeah, good stuff. I thank you for the great recipe and I may have to go out and buy that second or third bag of berries...for later.
I made a couple of minor adjustments:
I added about two very scant Tblps of flour
Added about two full Tblps of water
And took out a pinch or two of sugar
I did use turbinado sugar because I have never liked the white kind, so I always use turbinado or unrefined organic cane. The taste was tops!!
Don't laugh, but my boyfriend licked the plate. Then...a few moments later, I licked my plate and giggled.
Thanks again all, and if anyone wants to try a yummy pie, this is a great one to eat!
The tea is steeping and I will be having my second slice any minute now...
For a pound of cranberries...
On a large jelly roll pan, pour out about 2 C of sugar.
Separate two eggs. Put the yokes away for something else.
Whip the whites until frothy, but not until they're starting to meringue.
Dump in the cranberries and toss to coat.
Remove cranberries, drain of any excess egg white, and place in the sugared pan.
Stir so that the cranberries pick up as much sugar as possible, then place in a warm spot to dry.
When dry, remove the sugared cranberries to an airtight tin.
You eat them just like candy.
The kids and I made Linda's Cranberry Salsa and really liked it. We'll make it again. We modified it slightly.
Cranberry Salsa from BJ Irwin
1 12 oz package cranberries, chopped fine
1 8 oz can crushed pineapple with juice
1/3 cup cilantrochopped
1 seeded jalapeño pepper and chopped fine
¼ c. onion chopped
¼ cup green bell pepper chopped
1 tsp salt
2/3 cup sugar (or less)
I made the following adaptations:
* 1 20 oz can of crushed pineapple with no sugar added instead of the small can. I had it sitting there and we decided the whole thing sounded good.
* Green onions instead of regular because I had them on hand. My yellow onions seem really strong right now.
* Much less sugar, just about 1-2 tablespoons.
* Salt to taste. We are salt sensitive and many things taste too salty to us.
I used a half a jalapeño instead of a whole (we are wimps) but we decided it could have used the whole thing. We ate it with white corn chips. Alice's only complaint was its lack of chunkiness. I was in a hurry and did it all in the food processor.
I love fresh cranberries, although I am not crazy about cranberry relish. I like it OK, but it is not my favorite cranberry dish by far. I love them in pies, muffins, cakes, etc. It's too bad that most folks only know cranberries for the one time opening of the can at Thanksgiving. I hope I can make some more things with them this winter for the holidays. Here's one I made for Thanksgiving that was a big hit. I had to laugh Jennifer, because my experience was similar, we ended up going for seconds and licking the bowls!
Cranberry-Cherry Crumble, from "Cooking Light" magazine
3 cups fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed (that's one package)
3 cups frozen pitted dark sweet cherries, thawed (I didn't measure, just used a whole bag)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup dried cherries (I just used 1/2 cup dried cherries, no dried cranberries. You could probably sub some raisins too, to save money)
1 TBLSP all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch (I used some tapioca I found in the cupboard instead of cornstarch)
Cooking spray (I used olive oil to oil the pan)
1/4 cup slivered almonds, chopped
1/4 cup regular oats
1/4 cup whole wheat flour (I used regular)
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp. almond extract (I left this out)
2 TBLSP chilled butter, cut into small pieces
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Combine first seven ingredients in a large bowl, tossing gently to coat fruit. Spoon mixture into an 8 inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Combine almonds and the next 7 ing. (thru extract) in a med. bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until mixture resemles coarse meal. Sprinkle oat mixture evenly over the fruit. Bake at 375 for 45 minutes or until filling is bubbly and topping is golden.
Serves 8
