Baked Eggnog Donuts
I remember, when we bought our house 4+ years ago, thinking there's no way we'll ever have enough stuff to fill this place - it's so big! It's not actually a giant house, but in comparison to the apartment we'd been living in, it sure did seem like it. But, here we are, just a few short years later, and I'm wondering how we accumulated so much clutter, and where the heck to put it all. I won't pretend not to be part of the problem. My love of cookbooks and magazines knows no bounds, though to my credit I haven't purchased a single holiday baking magazine yet this month :)
Because we're short on space, before buying any new kitchen pans or gadgets, I always ask myself - do I really need this, how much will I really use it? For the longest time those questions stopped me from buying a donut pan because, the truth is, you don't really need a donut pan to make donuts. I've made yeasted donuts and fried them a few times, and while they're insanely delicious, there's definitely a fair amount of effort involved. With this nifty pan, I can have baked donuts on the table in less than 30 minutes. Plus, they're baked - so I don't have to fuss with a big pan of hot oil. It's a win all around. That said, I still couldn't seem to justify the purchase, so instead I stuck the donut pan on my birthday wish list this year.
It took me longer than I'd like to admit to take my new pan for a test run, but now that I have, there's no looking back. These donuts were seriously fun to whip up! You don't even need a mixer to make them - just one bowl, a whisk, and you're good to go! I've been bookmarking baked donut recipes for months (you wouldn't believe the endless flavor possibilities out there), and now I can finally begin whittling down that list. I started with this eggnog variation because I am desperately trying to use the eggnog in my fridge before it goes bad, and they really turned out well. The donuts are moist with an eggnog flavor that is prominent but not completely overwhelming. Topped with a little eggnog glaze and some candy cane sprinkles, they couldn't be more festive. There is a bit of a learning curve with the pan - I overfilled the wells and wound up with giant donuts, but it's just incentive to try again soon I suppose, right?
PS - Don't have a donut pan? Stay tuned, there just might be a chance to win one coming up soon :)
Baked Eggnog Donuts
from Shugary Sweets
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 large egg, at room temperature
3/4 cup eggnog, at room temperature
1/4 cup applesauce
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons eggnog
sprinkles to garnish (optional)
Preheat oven to 325 F. Spray 2 donut pans (6 wells each) with nonstick cooking spray.
Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add the egg, eggnog and applesauce and beat until well combined. The batter will be fairly thick.
Transfer the batter to a piping bag or large resealable bag. Cut the bottom (or corner if you're using a ziptop bag), and pipe the batter into the wells of the donut pans, filling each about 1/2-3/4 full. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed.
Transfer the pans to a wire rack and let the donuts cool for a few minutes before turning them out to cool completely.
To make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar and eggnog in a wide, shallow bowl until smooth. Dip the donuts into the glaze then garnish with sprinkles (if using) while it's wet. Allow the glaze to set before serving. Store the donuts in an airtight container.

Wow Tracey. These look fantastic. I have been searching high and low for that darned donut pan. Everyone is sold out of it. Guess I better just buy it online and be done with it. Great post!!

These came out beautifully! Love the addition of some festive sprinkles. :) I must admit, a donut pan is on my wish list, too!

These came out great! I have problem accumulating baking supplies that an apartment kitchen cannot handle (I have the small and regular sized donut pans for starters).

I was the same way about buying a doughnut pan - my husband finally had to force me into buying one! ;) But yeah, it's so worth the amount of space it takes up!
I really need to buy some eggnog so I can make these and the scones you posted recently! - December 7, 2011 at 12:30 PM
- Gloria said...
I can totally relate about adding new items to the kitchen. It's like a game of Tetris at our house trying to fit everything in our very limited space.
Kudos on not buying any holiday magazines this month. Did you buy them all in November? :) LOL.
Baked donuts have always been something I've wanted to try. Maybe I'll try some in my mini bundt pan. - December 7, 2011 at 2:16 PM

That is really cool, a doughnut pan. I've seen them but never knew what they might be used for. Far healthier than fried doughnuts!

Those look so pretty...what a fun thing to make for the holidays. Do I really need a doughnut pan? Hmmm...wait, don't answer that, I'm supposed to be down-sizing!! Love the sprinkles you have.

Not an eggnog drinker here, but I don't want to boycott this Christmas staple, so I, as much as possible try to include the eggnog flavor in our Christmas menu, via sweet baked treats. Love the donut recipe! Merry Christmas...Thanks for spreading the holiday cheer!

I've been wanting a donut pan so bad lately. They look so cute, and I'm not a fan of fried donuts, but I like the idea of baked donuts. And I would love to try these eggnog donuts very soon! They look delicious!

What a yummy preparation! Loved this recipe and the way you write. I am fond of food and I think there is a lot to learn from you! Your photography is praiseworthy too. Do you have a facebook page?

I am always looking for new baked doughnut recipes (because I went nuts and bought the regular AND mini pans a few years back) and these look fantastic! Now I can make use of that Trader Joe's Light eggnog in my fridge (it's not great for drinking, unfortunately).

A donut pan is on my Christmas list. Hope Santa brings me one...

These sound so good! I think the only eggnog thing I've had this season is an eggnog latte.

yum..these look incredible!! I need to buy a donut pan soon! Egg nog is my fav.

Any chance I could make these without a donut pan? Otherwise, Im sitting here with my fingers crossed for that upcoming something something ;)
- December 11, 2011 at 8:18 AM
- Tracey said...
@Kita - I don't think the consistency of this batter would work without a pan. There are some other baked donuts out there that would be better options (and hopefully I'll get a chance to make/blog them one of these days!). Keep an eye out this week for the giveaway!
- December 11, 2011 at 5:18 PM
- Jen @ My Kitchen Addiction said...
Love these! I'm mildly obsessed with eggnog at the moment. I just need to get my hands on a donut pan. Of course, it's not like I have room for it. I totally understand about accumulating stuff. I currently have "kitchen overflow" shelves in the basement. :)
- December 13, 2011 at 8:51 PM
- Stephanie @ Confessions of a Trophy Wife said...
Just made these tonight in my new doughnut pan and they're awesome! The batter is so quick to put together and there is just the right amount of eggnog in there. My husband even liked these and he's not a fan of eggnog. Thanks for the pan and a great recipe!
- December 17, 2011 at 12:14 AM
- Texanerin said...
Thanks for sharing this recipe! I've made it as written and also as whole grain and we loved them both ways. I also love how quick they are to put together! I just posted about them if you want to see.

W. W. Norton & Company is an independent American publishing company based in New York City. It has been owned wholly by its employees since the early 1960s. The company is well known for its "Norton Anthologies" (particularly the Norton Anthology of English Literature) and its texts in the "Norton Critical Editions" series, the latter of which are frequently assigned in university literature courses.
W. W. Norton & Company is the larger American book publishing company that has remained independent since its founding. It is the oldest and largest employee-owned publisher in the United States[1] of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, college textbooks, cookbooks, art books, and professional books.[2] The roots of the company date back to 1923, when William Warder Norton founded the firm and became its first president.[3] Storer D. Lunt took over in 1945 after Norton's death, and was succeeded by George Brockway (1957–1976), Donald S. Lamm (1976–1994), and now W. Drake McFeely (1994–present).[4] Since the 1950s Norton's college textbook line has expanded to include leading titles in economics, government, history, music, psychology, political science, sociology, and many other academic subjects. Several of its college textbooks, including The Norton Shakespeare, The Enjoyment of Music, A History of Western Music, and new and revised entries in the Norton Anthology and Norton Critical Edition series, have become best sellers in the academic fields. The Norton Professional Books division was founded in 1985 with a line of psychotherapy volumes, expanding to include neuroscience, education, architecture, and design books.
Norton acquired Liveright (the successor to the famous Boni & Liveright publishing house) in 1974 and Countryman Press (New England travel book publisher) in 1996.
Norton's best-selling[citation needed] trade books include Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi and Curt Gentry; Jared Diamond's Pulitzer Prize-winning best-seller Guns, Germs, and Steel; Pulitzer prize-winning historians Annette Gordon-Reed and Edmund S. Morgan's works; Patrick O'Brian's critically acclaimed naval adventures; the works of National Book Award-winning fiction author Andrea Barrett; "Khruschev: The Man and His Era" by William Taubman; "Hitler: Hubris" and "Hitler: Nemesis" by Ian Kershaw; Liar's Poker, Moneyball, The Blind Side and The Big Short by Michael Lewis; Fareed Zakaria's The Future of Freedom; Sebastian Junger's The Perfect Storm; Sam Harris' The End of Faith; The Death of Vishnu by Manil Suri; A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess; The Red Book by Carl Jung; The Book of Genesis Illustrated by R. Crumb; The Ugly American by Eugene Burdick and William Lederer; and others in several subject fields. In the social sciences and science Norton has published best-selling books by such authors as Mary Roach, economists Paul Krugman and Joseph Stiglitz, paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould, physicist Richard Feynman, and historians Peter Gay, Jonathan Spence, Eric Foner, Christopher Lasch, and George F. Kennan.
Norton currently distributes books for several independent publishers,[5] including:
- Atlas & Co., publisher of contemporary and historical fiction, nonfiction, history, and biography.
- Blue Guides, travel and cultural guide books in English.
- Countryman Press, acquired by Norton in 1996, is a publisher of travel guides, New England regional interest and history, and cookbooks.
- Dalkey Archive Press, publisher of the Review of Contemporary Fiction and literature, memoirs, and criticism from around the globe.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Bright, deep red. Captivating violet lift to the aromas of cassis, minerals, bitter chocolate, licorice and sexy oak; I would have guessed this had a good deal of cabernet franc. Then extremely primary on the palate, but already showing a seductive sugar/acid balance. Boasts lovely clarity and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This wine continues a long-standing tradition, showing a mastery of the art of blending. It's made using grapes that are sourced from at least six vineyards scattered from Yountville to St. Helena. Right out of the bottle, it's a soft, smoothly tannic wine that's rich in blackberry jam,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A beautiful effort, the 2009 Pichon Lalande, a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, possesses copious mocha, lead pencil, unsmoked, high class tobacco, black currant, forest floor and herbaceous characteristics. It is a deep purple-hued, charming, surprisingly open-knit..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Rich, yet always elegant, this has raspberry flavor and terrific acidity that creates tension, contrasting with the opulent fruit. While it's structured, it will soften and round out over the next five years."
Cellar/Tasting Notes Not surprisingly, the 2006 is a bigger, more muscular, less charming effort displaying unbridled power, full-bodied richness, and notes of new saddle leather, black fruits, roasted herbs, and burning embers. Powerful and rich with sweet tannin, low acidity, and more structure and density than the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Sassicaia was just released and it's an outstanding bottle. I think that people are going to love this newest Sass. The red is very aromatic with currant, dried berry, coco bean, and hints of wood. It's full-bodied, with intense yet very polished tannins and a long finish. ..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Good ruby-red. Nuanced aromas of blackberry, minerals, licorice and wild herbs; a bit more medicinal in character than the 2008 version. Quite closed and inexpressive following the recent bottling, but concentrated dark fruit flavors show a lovely light touch, with mineral and floral notes..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Dense purple to the rim, this wine exhibits the classic cassis aroma that is so characteristic of Mouton. Medium to full-bodied, tannic, powerful, and cut somewhat from the 1988 mold, this is a backward, chewy, well-endowed Mouton-Rothschild that will require considerable patience from those who..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2007 Latour (the first wine made in the newly renovated cellars) exhibits a dense ruby/purple color as well as a sweet, expansive bouquet of black fruits and spring flowers interwoven with a striking minerality. The wine's dense, medium to full-bodied flavors are surprisingly evolved, with..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This estate's staff believes that the 1996 Mouton-Rothschild is very complex. I agree that among the first-growths, this wine is showing surprising forwardness and complexity in its aromatics. It possesses an exuberant, flamboyant bouquet of roasted coffee, cassis, smoky oak, and soy sauce. The..

In an ideal world my work laptop would be the central hub for my GTD system. I am trying to implement GTD but there is one issue that is keeping me from going all in. That is the problem associated with having personal data on my work laptop. If you dismiss the privacy concerns there are still real legal issues that arise by commingling my work and personal projects on my work laptop. Trying to maintain two systems is really hindering my adoption of the GTD lifestyle.
How have you all dealt with this issue in your GTD systems?

text: Here's a great video showing the growth and collapse of the housing bubble. Things really start to take off around 2000. This coincides with the bursting of the the Dot-Com/ NASDAQ bubble and consequent slashing of interest rates by the Federal Reserve, which made mortgages super cheap. So in the end, we traded one bubble for a larger one. Makes you wonder what's next. In my view, what we have growing now is a government bubble.

Hi I'm Bill O'Reilly a thanks for watching us and time how the entitlement society makes America week -- That is -- subject of this evening's talking points memo I am flashing back to my school teaching case.
Last -- I told you the committed left furious.
Furious at people like me.
Are telling Americans the truth.
That the USA is becoming an entitlement society and that help President Obama win reelection.
Miss my talking points from last night you can access it.
On the Fox's website now.
Why should you care about that.
-- one big reason the entitlement culture weakens the country.
First the facts.
Little more than twenty years ago in 1991 the federal government spent 9% of the budget on means tested entitlements things like food stamps housing welfare.
Now the numbers 16% almost double.
In 91.
Individuals and 41 million American households or receiving some kind of entitlement outside of Medicare and Social Security.
Now the number is an astounding 107.
Million Americans an increase of 161%.
Can you believe it.
Even of the population has increased just 14%.
Twenty years ago 23 million people receive food stamps now 45 million people do a record.
In 92.
About three and a half million Americans receiving federal disability payments this month nearly nine -- million Americans -- getting that federal payment.
So you can see anybody can city.
That the entitlement society is explain molding in America there's no question about how -- Yet liberals will deny it's happening or say it's all because of the bad economy.
Which is flat out false in 1992 the black unemployment rate.
Was fourteen point 3%.
In 2012.
This year the black unemployment rate is fourteen point 3% exactly the same.
In Hispanic precincts -- situation is similar.
So this is about a dramatic change that is overwhelming the United States of America not economic -- When you have more than 100 million Americans living in home receiving stuff.
From the government again outside of Medicare social security -- -- -- -- That you have a large dependence on the federal government.
And what does that do.
Well it saps motivation.
Why buster to help with the feds will give you enough to get -- America became great because of individual self reliance hard working people took chances suffered creative things that help the country.
Every day Americans empowered this nation not the federal and state governments.
They're in place to protect us and to see that social order is kept not to -- -- -- cradle to grave security.
The founding fathers did not want to act.
The Democratic Party wants.
-- Western European money.
They want boulders depended on the cover the result.
Sixteen trillion dollars in debt an awful economy and a growing population that lacks ambition.
This is a road to disaster.
Perhaps President Obama will change surely has to know that if he and his party continue to build up a massive nanny state.
America will eventually collapsed.
That's the truth.
That's a memo now for the top story tonight.

South Africans gathered in song and prayer late Thursday outside the hospital where Nelson Mandela is being treated, singing "Viva Mandela!" after news the South African anti-apartheid icon's condition had improved.
Colorfully dressed women danced in front of the Pretoria hospital where candles burned and people are often seen praying together, the South African Press Association reported.
Hundreds of people from the African National Congress Youth League and Women's League sang struggle songs, danced, and marched up and down the street in front of the hospital, according to the state-run South African Broadcasting Corp.
"There is no other like him," they sang of Mandela, the SABC reported.
Zuma: Mandela's condition improves
Mandela's condition improved Wednesday night, President Jacob Zuma said Thursday, as the eyes of the nation remained fixed on his progress.
Zuma spoke after visiting Mandela in the hospital and said Mandela's medical team told him the former president "remains critical but is now stable."
"I canceled my visit to Mozambique today so that I can see him and confer with the doctors. He is much better today than he was when I saw him last night," Zuma said.
Mandela, 94, considered the founding father of South Africa's modern democracy, has been undergoing treatment at the Pretoria hospital since June 8 for a recurring lung infection. Mandela's oldest daughter said earlier that although her father is critically ill, he opens his eyes and responds to touch.
"I reiterate that Tata is very critical, that anything is imminent," Makaziwe Mandela told SABC. "But I want to emphasize again that it's only God who knows when the time to go is. And so we will wait."
"Tata" is the word for father in the language of Mandela's Xhosa tribe.
"He's ... still reactive to touch. We will live with that hope until the final end comes," she said.
The stream of family visits continued, with the former president's granddaughter Ndileka Mandela and grandson Mandla Mandela the latest to come to the hospital, the South African Press Association said.
Concerned about rumors
Another grandson, Nkosi Mandela, issued a statement criticizing what he called "hurtful" and "mischievous rumors" about his grandfather's condition.
"Our government has been keeping all of us informed in this regard, and there is no reason to doubt the accuracy of the information they provide to the public," he said.
"At the end of the day, my grandfather's fate, like that of everyone else, lies with God and our ancestors," he added. "However, many of us will continue to pray and hope for his recovery."
An official briefed on Mandela's condition said he was on life support late Wednesday. Government spokesman Mac Maharaj declined to comment on the report, citing doctor-patient confidentiality.
Zuma's statement also warned against a rash of misleading reports about Mandela's condition.
"The presidency is disturbed by the rumors that are being spread about former President Mandela's health. We appeal for respect for the privacy and dignity of the former president," it said.
The governing African National Congress also said it was "disturbed by consistent rumors being peddled in the media and elsewhere" about Mandela's health.
The ANC is organizing prayer sessions around the country "where all South Africans can come together, hold hands and pray for Madiba, his family and medical team," it said in a statement Thursday.
In South Africa, Mandela is most commonly referred to as Madiba, the name of the Thembu clan to which he belongs. Referring to him as Madiba is a sign of endearment and respect, according to the Nelson Mandela Foundation.
'We need you!'
As the nation remained on edge, South Africans found solace in candlelight vigils. Police barricaded the street leading to the hospital's main entrance as crowds posted messages and left tributes at the hospital wall.

Comments On Nov 08, 2013:Installed in no time at all, it seems to have caught some very small metal shaving on the magnet ring. It gives my son peace of mind knowing that it is in place. He rides MX just about every weekend and changes filter and oil often and this just give added protection.

Comments On Oct 25, 2013:I wipe the magnet off with every oil change. If you don't have one, you should get one! This magnet is very strong and collects a lot of shavings.

Comments On Sep 03, 2013:Additional protection to keep particles out of your oil. Adds to the OEM magnet on the drain plug. If you do not have any magnet in your oil system to keep out metal.....get one!!!

Comments On Mar 12, 2012:I thought this was a great idea so I bought one. During install I dropped it from the filter to the floor, (about a foot and a half) it broke into two pieces! Overpriced and ridiculously fragile. I wouldn't buy again or recommend it to anybody.

Farmers love diesel tractors and combines, they have the torque needed to get the job done, and they're essentially more economical than gasoline engines might be in the same application. But what about cars? The arrival of common rail diesel technology in commercial applications has been a boon to users of these high-tech engines.

During Agritechnica recently the Agrievolution Alliance released its eighth survey among manufacturers and importers of machines. From the report, more than half responding say the business situation is good or very good, pushing the Agritech Business Climate index up three points. The group notes that global equipment sales should rise as much as 7% in 2014, good news for a market that may be feeling a bit of a pinch with sliding crop prices into the new year.

Agritechnica wrapped up Saturday and the DLG Team, along with VDMA, were happy with the results. Of the 2900 exhibitors on hand 52% were from outside Germany.

We're covering Agritechnica this week in Hannover, Germany and I hope to blog a couple times here at Farmer Iron about the experience. European trade shows are giant affairs held in super bring and modern exhibit facilities creating a different atmosphere from a U.S. farm show. And Agritechnica is the granddaddy of them all. This giant farm show housed in about 84 acres of indoor space offers show visitors plenty to see from more than 2900 exhibitors. And of those 1,500 are international…Continue Reading
Agricultural equipment is always a hot topic. Farmers like to see what's new even if they're not planning to buy right way. That's true around the world. And while I've been going to farm shows for quite some time (not as long as many of you dear reader, but long enough) seldom do I venture out of the country. That changes next week. I'm heading to Hannover, Germany to cover Agritechnica. It's a big event spread through more than a dozen exhibition buildings at Hannover…Continue Reading
Prognostication in the equipment business is always interesting. Knowing what farmers may do in the year ahead based on costs, income and other factors is no easy guess. But one machinery analyst has made an observation worth sharing. Steven Fisher at UBS, issued a report this week showing that the key risk facing the farm equipment business in the near future is the ability for buyers to delay purchases. Noting that corn prices have fallen nearly 50% from their 2012 peak, the income picture…Continue Reading
Hard to write about farm safety without getting preachy, but a little "be careful out there" may not be enough every year. Our editors at Farm Progress know this and post items online to keep you thinking about safety. Over at Prairie Farmer, they posted a reminder that you shouldn't overlook grain storage safety. With wet grain coming in you often get more problems with entrapment. It's a challenge because you go into a bin to bust a crust and you end up getting pulled…Continue Reading
The farm equipment industry has been barreling along at an unusually fast clip for the past five years, so fast in fact that some execs have commented that a little "breather" might be appreciated. From the looks of some new survey from the investment community that may be ahead. A recent dealer survey conducted by the financial firm UBS shows that dealers see sales into 2014 as flat or declining, depending on the market. The survey, which had responses from 160 dealers, shows…Continue Reading
The folks at the Propane Education and Research Council, the checkoff fund for propane producers, are constantly looking for new ways to put propane to work. The low-cost fuel is a byproduct of natural gas production and the supply is abundant these days, which also means prices are lower than for some fuels. Irrigators and users of stationary engines already have a range of power sources to choose from. We ran into Origin Engines at Husker Harvest days, where they were showing off their…Continue Reading

Many people consider spring the perfect time to clean their homes, but it is also important to clean your vehicle. The average vehicle stays on the road nearly 11 years, according to a study by Polk Research. This trend of consumers holding onto their vehicles longer than usual continues to grow. Here are simple tips to make sure you are ready for a successful spring travel season.
- As temperatures change, so can tire pressure. Proper tire inflation is essential for increased automotive safety, optimum driving performance and significant cost savings, including better fuel mileage. Tires should be inflated to the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations printed on the vehicle door placard or in the glove box, and should be checked at least monthly. Over-inflation can lead to premature or irregular tire wear and under-inflation reduces a vehicle's fuel efficiency by an average of 3.3 percent, according to fueleconomy.gov.
- Many fluids require attention, including the engine oil, transmission fluid and power steering fluid. Spring is the perfect time to make sure they are all clean and at the proper levels. Additionally, to help ensure maximum engine life, change the oil and oil filter every 3,000 miles, or as directed by your owner's manual.
- Replacing a dirty air filter can increase a vehicle's life expectancy and fuel efficiency by reducing the strain on the engine, especially during warmer months. Over the winter months, salt, sand and other impurities may build up in a vehicle's air filtration system, and replacing this air filter can improve acceleration time by around 6 to 11 percent, according to fueleconomy.gov.
- The lower the tread depth, the less traction you will have on wet roads, and the greater the distance you will need to stop.

Volkswagen Brings Back the Golf Cabriolet
The Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet may not be a luxury car per se, but back in the 80s the daughters of every rich family in California were driving one of these. The last all-new Cabrio was launched in 1993, and was discontinued in 2003. But now it's back.
Joining the Volkswagen line-up alongside the hard-top Eos convertible, the Golf Cabriolet features a fabric roof that takes both less time to operate and less space to store. A wide range of turbocharged, direct-injection engines will be available when orders begin after its debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week.

Check In/Out
On move-in day, you will be greeted by a Residential Programs staff member who will welcome you to your new home away from home. After completing some paperwork, such as an Emergency Contact Card, a Resident Assistant will escort you to your room. Together, you will check your room/suite and record its condition on the Room Condition Report (RCR). It is important that this form is completed accurately, as you will be billed for any changes to the conditions of your room upon check out. After completing this paperwork, you will receive a key to your new home. The staff member will leave you to get settled, but will be sure to touch base with you later to ensure you have settled and to go over some important information that will ensure a comfortable stay.
Check Out
When you are preparing to check out, please ensure that you follow all the proper procedures:
- Remove all personal belongings from the room. There is a minimum charge of $35 for items that are not removed. Items not removed will be discarded. The University assumes no responsibility for lost, damaged or discarded items.
- Restore your room to its original condition. There is a minimum $50 charge for cleaning a dirty room.
- Have an RA check your room in your presence to note any damages or repair needs on the Room Condition Report (RCR).
- Return your key and receive a key receipt.
- There is a $25 fee for improper check-out and a $25 per hour charge for anyone who checks out beyond their approved departure date.
- A minimum charge of $25 per key and $35 per core change will be assessed for failure to turn in key at the time of check-out.
Mid-Year Check Outs & Check Ins
If you need to check into your housing assignment on any day during the academic year that is not an advertised check in day, you may do so by visiting the Resident Assistant Office of your residence hall between 6-9PM.
If you need to check out of your housing assignment during the course of the academic year, it is your responsibility to contact your Resident Director for instructions on the check out process. All check outs will take place during active 6-9p.m. office hours with the Resident Assistant(s) on duty. The student is responsible for ensuring they complete all check out requirements including completion of appropriate paperwork and submitting residence hall keys to a staff member in order to ensure they are not billed for improper check-out or lock changes.
Per the Office of Residential Programs Living Agreement, the housing agreement is a one-year contractual agreement and failure to remain in housing for the full academic year without prior written approval for cancellation will result in a $750 cancelation and forfeiture of the housing deposit.

How to achieve this Mizani-inspired style at home
Over on the Mizani stage at the World Natural Hair Show, stylist Chandra Thorpe demonstrated an innovative style that used a zulu-knotting technique to create a sort of "natural" headband using only your hair. I love unique ways to keep my hair from hanging in my face (read: I love preventing product-induced breakouts on my forehead). This style not only offered up a great way to pull the hair back but also create an elegant and fun look perfect for to spice up your everyday style or dress up an evening look.
Chandra's daughter Khadori models this style. Full View. How Cute!
Here's a step-by-step guide for how to achieve this style at home!
At the front hairline, part a 1-2" wide section of hair from all the way around the head. Secure the rest of the hair in a bun.STEP 2
Part a 1-inch section in this parted band and begin twisting tightly at the base of the section, continuing down the length of the section until the entire piece is twisted.STEP 3
Keep twisting and as the coil begins to collapse on itself. Here's where you can really get creative with the style and make it your own. You can either use hair pins and secure the twist to your scalp as you go or you can create a normal zulu knot and then take a couple pins and bring it closer to the scalp when its done.STEP 4
Using triangle parts or square parts (your preference), create the next section and repeat steps 2 and 3.STEP 5
Continue along the hairline until the entire band is twisted and secured.STEP 6
Style the back of the hair as you please- in a bun, puff, french-twist, or loose!Optional
Add pieces of hair to the twists to make them more substantial.Voila! A cute, and simple style with distinctive flair!

The story behind this submission is a bit silly. If you ride a fixed gear in the City then chances are you know about a hundred other people who share your interest. It gets pinned as a hipster thing but ultimately we do it because it's fun. This particular video features myself and a couple of other kids from the neighborhood practicing our little tricks at the basketball courts in the Panhandle. We decided to call ourselves the "Grundle Crushers" as a way to make fun of our silly sport. Thanks for clicking!

Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord.
Courageous patience
7 Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord. Consider the farmer who waits patiently for the coming of rain in the fall and spring, looking forward to the precious fruit of the earth. 8 You also must wait patiently, strengthening your resolve, because the coming of the Lord is near. 9 Don't complain about each other, brothers and sisters, so that you won't be judged. Look! The judge is standing at the door!
10 Brothers and sisters, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord as an example of patient resolve and steadfastness.

Master Meitatsu Yagi, and his family, would like to express their deepest appreciation for all those attending and making possible the Grand Master Meitoku Yagi's 100th Anniversary Event March 2012. It was a huge success with credit to the Hombu dojo members who worked tirelessly before and during the event and to each and every one of the participants who travelled from around the world to pay tribute to Grand Master Meitoku Yagi. Credit needs to be given to those who couldn't attend but supported by paying for their dojo advertisement, fundraisers, and in whatever manner they could!
Thank You!
Meitatsu Yagi
Chairman IMGKA
100th Anniversary Celebration YAGI, Meitoku Sensei - Hanshi Judan
I think we can all agree we had a very quick winter, one filled with many memories that will last a life time.
Before I go any further, I would like to express deepest thanks to the YAGI family and to all IMGKA members, busy behind the scenes, for all the hard work and the many hours set aside to make last March's mega event a great success Nihei debiru!
March 1st, brought us the opening of the festival with a set of 4 seminars conducted at the Budokan. It should be noted that these seminars were the first time the Global Meibukai Family share the same dojo floor under the guidance of our Chairman, Master YAGI, Meitatsu. I must admit after meeting many of the other Meibukan students from around the world, I began to fully understand the meaning of the famous Okinawa proverb, Ichariba choo-dee, which translates Once we meet and talk, we become brothers and sisters.
Saturday March 3rd, was the World Tournament again thanks to all volunteers, refs and judges! It was a great day being witness to so many examples of good sportsmanship, this was such a wonderful way to honour Meitoku Sensei's spirit during this 100th anniversary celebration.
The highlight of the week for many was preparing for the demonstration which marked the occasion. Over 35 different performances entertained a pack house with YAGI, Akihito Sensei and special guest NAKA, Tatsuya Sensei from Tokyo closing the show with the final scenes of KURO OBI. We also were witness to a beautiful performance of Tensho from none other then our Master, YAGI, Meitatsu. To close out the day, a banquet (Okinawan style) was held for everyone.
On Monday the 5th, many choose to go golfing with YAGI, Sensei. Others took a day of much needed rest.
Tuesday the 6th, was a very spiritual day for us as this was the actual anniversary of Meitoku Sensei's birth. This was commemorated with a trip to the YAGI Family HAKA (Grave sight). All Dojo teachers were able to visit and pay respects. Later in the day an IMGKA directors meeting was held, a first the IMGKA to have that many countries present, followed by a Karate Symposium, lecture session on various Karate-do topics.
During a three week period, the Hombu dojo under the guidance of Master YAGI, Meitatsu, conducted nightly lessons, which all Meibukan facets were covered. Let me be the first to congratulate all who received promotions during their stay in Okinawa.
In the coming months, a professional grade DVD will be released for us detailing the complete Celebration from beginning to end. Let us support this project, as it will make a great keepsake!
In closing, please lets keep the Meibukai Spirit strong in our respective Dojo and keep training hard towards our next trip to Okinawa in 5 years to honour our Master YAGI, Meitatsu's 73rd birthday on July 7th. 2017.
