Baked, Baking, Cakes & Pies, Coconut Cake, Dessert, From Scratch, Frosting, Recipes
Preface: Before you look at the list of ingredients in this cake stop. The cake is really, really easy to prepare. Use whatever frosting you'd like, but try the cake…
After a weekend of being shut in with sick kids, the stir crazy feeling was overwhelming, so why not bake? I have been actively searching for coconut cake recipes to prepare for a friends upcoming birthday, and I am not brave enough to prepare a "first time" cake to be served publicly… score family.
We don't do coconut very often, yet no one, even the kids, will turn it down. The cake recipe is from one source, and the frosting from another with a little tweeking. Note, the cake batter uses powdered sugar. I have never seen this in a cake before, and was leery about it, but it was fantastic.
Speaking of frosting. I had a very hard time deciding the best type of frosting. Supposedly the "classic southern" coconut cake uses a whipped/meringue type frosting, verses a buttercream, but I grew up southern and buttercream was on every cake I've ever eaten. Anyway, this recipe intrigued me and settled my frosting dilemma.
Final thoughts? The cake is a keeper. Big time! The frosting was interesting. The original recipe was good, but not very "sweet" so I added some powdered sugar. I think it helped also to thicken the frosting slightly. I will definitely put the cake in my top favorites list, but will probably do a buttercream frosting next time. I just really want to find the "perfect" combination.
Has anyone tried the 7 minute frosting method? What did you think? Was it meringue like?
Coconut Cake with Raspberry Filling
- 3 cups (297g) sifted cake flour (sift before measuring)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- 1 pound (450g) powdered sugar
- 4 egg yolks, well beaten *Beat until well combined, about 1 minute
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon almond extract (or coconut)
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 4 egg whites, well beaten
Cake Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 2 – 9″ round cake pans with baking spray.
Combine the cake flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Sift these ingredients 3 times. In a mixing bowl, cream butter thoroughly; add sugar gradually. Continue creaming until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks and beat well. Add flour mixture alternately with the milk, beating well after each addition. Stir in coconut and vanilla. Fold in egg whites gently until well combined.
Bake for about 30 minutes, or until a wooden pick or cake tester inserted in center comes out clean. Makes two 9-inch layers, or three 8-inch layers. (The original recipe link states to make it in 8″ pans, I used 9″ pans and sliced the layers in half.)
Frosting Ingredients:
- 1 cup Milk
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp coconut extract
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- Raspberry Preserves (at least 1 cup) *choose a good quality
- 1 1/2 cups coconut

Grace, Martin, Morgan Have Made Outstanding Contributions To Yale Basketball
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Michael Grace, Sam Martin and Austin Morgan share a common bond. The three arrived together at Yale in 2009, and over the last four years have grown together, both on and off the basketball court. There have been good times and bad times, but the three have always stuck together.
"We are brothers," said Grace. "While we don't always agree, we always support each other and will not hesitate to shoulder one another's burdens. [Sam and Austin] have been great teammates but more importantly great friends."
The three make their final appearance in the John J. Lee Amphitheater this weekend when Princeton and Penn visit.
Grace, Martin and Morgan have made outstanding contributions to the Yale Basketball program over the last four years. Combined, they have played in 319 games, scored 1,770 points and helped the Bulldogs to nearly 50 victories.
Perhaps a testament to their success, each has a different most memorable moment.
"Sweeping Penn and Princeton on the road this year was something I will always remember probably because it was such a team effort," Martin said. "It felt really special to be able to come together and do something Yale Basketball hadn't done since the 1980s."
"My top memories are beating Boston College on the road sophomore year and defeating Harvard at home that same year," Morgan says.
Grace's is more personal.
"By far my top memory was returning home to compete against my best friend, CJ Harris," he said of the Bulldogs trip to Wake Forest in his junior year. "I rarely get to play in front of my family members because of our schedule. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to play in front of so many of the people who have supported me throughout my basketball career. It was also a great game that we had an opportunity to win down the stretch."
Grace, a Winston-Salem, N.C., native, has played in 104 games in his career. This year he is sixth in the Ivy League in assist/turnover ratio (1.7) and is second on the team is assists (66). Against Nevada in December, he scored a career-high 17 points. In his junior year, he shot 82.1 percent from the free throw line and started a career-high 16 games. As a freshman he appeared in all 29 games off the bench and was third on the team with 58 assists.
"I am a completely different person than the one who walked into the locker room four years ago," Grace said. "It has not been an easy journey, but I am a much more mature and humble person for it."
Martin, the team captain and a West Warwick, R.I., native, has emerged as one of the top three-pointers in the Ivy League this season. He enters the weekend second in the league in three-point field goal percentage (.465) and has made 16 three-pointers in league play.
"I think my three-point success is a result of my coaches and teammates," Martin said. "They all always encourage me to shoot the ball. The coaches have spent countless hours with me over the years getting shots up, and my teammates are always looking for me in the games. I have worked hard too, but the success has to do with a lot more than simply that."
Morgan also has enjoyed success from beyond the three-point arc as well. He enters the final weekend with 196 career three-pointers, the third most in Yale history. Morgan, though, also has made a mark at the foul line. He is third in the nation in free throw shooting with a .908 percentage after finishing fifth last year. Earlier this season, he made 33 straight free throws, tying a school record, and his career percentage of .857 is the best in school history.
"I think I've been successful because I've remained calm and disciplined at the free throw line," Morgan said. "I'm also quite superstitious and keep the same free throw routine - 2 dribbles, spin the ball, and shoot - every single time."
Like Grace and Martin, Morgan feels he has grown as a person during his time at Yale.
"I've matured as a person and realized how great an opportunity I've had to come [to Yale]," he said. "I hope to use this amazing experience as a platform for doing positive things in the future. I've changed completely in all aspects, for the better."
Morgan hopes to play professionally overseas for a few years before attending graduate school for business or architecture, his major at Yale.
Grace and Martin also hope to continue playing after graduation.
"I love this game and I want to prove to myself that I can play it at a professional level and be successful," said Grace, who then plans to attend Duke or Wake Forest Law School.
Martin, who interned for Rhode Island Senator Jack Reed in the summer of 2011, also would like to attend law school after playing.
"Playing at Yale has taught me to keep working hard even if you are not immediately rewarded," he said. "It has taught me how to be a teammate in ways I never knew before college and it forced me to learn how to be a leader while I served as the captain this year."
Whatever lies ahead, all three agree that their experiences at Yale will have them well prepared.
"Being a college athlete is not easy, being college athlete at a university as prestigious as Yale is down right difficult," Grace said. "But my career at Yale has better prepared me for the rigors that I will face in the next step of my journey."

The Almond Board of California (ABC) has long made research a cornerstone to provide industry-wide benefits in production and marketing. Commitment to horticultural research by the ABC has progressed continuously for 35 years. This research has led to the development of new varieties and rootstocks, improvements in management practices such as irrigation, pest and disease control, and many other improvements that have allowed the almond industry to climb from yields of 500 pounds per acre to over 3,000 pounds per acre in some areas.
The single most important factor determining almond yield is pollination during the bloom period. Almonds are self-incompatible and therefore require pollen from one variety to be transported to another variety via an insect vector in order to produce a crop. Over 1.2 million colonies of honeybees are required to pollinate this crop alone, with California beekeepers supplying about half that need. Thus, honeybees travel from throughout the United States to California for almond pollination, some coming from as far away as Florida.
"Growers must allocate 20 percent or more of their operating expenses to hive rental," explains Dan Cummings, Chico almond grower and chairman of the ABC's Bee Task Force. "It wasn't that long ago when hive rental was just 8 percent of my overall expenses."
Honey Bee Research
The ABC recognizes the industry's dependence on honeybees for pollination and contributes its share to pollination research. The ABC has funded research that has:
-Developed guidelines on hive strength and numbers for sufficient pollination.
-Assessed honeybee flight patterns and behaviors to better understand pollination of individual almond blossoms.
-Tracked the spread of Africanized honeybees northward into the United States from Mexico.
-Led to a better understanding of why Africanized honeybees usurp European honeybee colonies.
-Helped beekeepers understand and control pests and diseases such as varroa mite and American foulbrood disease.
-Assisted in preventing the widespread importation of unwanted pests such as red imported fire ant and small hive beetle accompanying colonies traveling to California.
Slightly less than 20 percent of the ABC's current production research budget is devoted to pollination research. In December 2004, with pollination becoming greater than 10 percent of the total research budget, the board's Production Research Committee appointed a subcommittee to make pollination research recommendations to the committee. The subcommittee, called the Bee Task Force, consists of two almond grower representatives, two beekeeper representatives and two representatives from the research community. The researchers are from the University of California and the USDA-ARS.
Pests, Nutrition, and Alternate Pollinators
Current pollination research projects include studies to combat varroa mite with essential oils and oxalic acid, assistance with sampling and evaluation for colony collapse disorder (CCD), honeybee nutrition, and pollination by blue orchard bees. These projects will yield both short-term and long-term benefits in almond pollination. In the short-term, ABC funding will serve to determine effectiveness of compounds and treatments to reduce varroa populations. Analytical tests are currently under way to determine the factors causing CCD. In the longer term, the effect of transportation stress on honeybees over time, feeding regimens that lead to healthier colonies, and pollination by alternative pollinators will all be advanced in terms of the available knowledge base.
ABC-funded research has yielded important new products now available to beekeepers. Understanding that research and development requires significant funding from many different sources, almond growers should still be aware that their contribution to research has, in part, led to new commercially-available products. Essential oils are now readily available and widely used to combat varroa mite. The two latest products are a new bee feed and a brood pheromone to enhance brood production.
MegaBee, sometimes referred to as the Tucson Bee Diet, was developed by way of a cooperative research and development agreement between Dr. Gordon Wardell, SAFE Research and Development, LLC, and the USDA-ARS Carl Hayden Bee Lab in Tucson, Ariz. The ABC has assisted in funding this project at the USDA lab for several years because of its potential to build colonies for the early almond pollination season.
In feeding tests last fall, colonies fed MegaBee showed superior health and brood development. "Looking at the growth curves for brood production, they were higher for MegaBee than other bee supplements and even natural pollen," says developer Wardell. "It may add some input cost, but the beekeeper and eventually the almond grower will get more bees for their buck."
As of August, this product is now being manufactured and distributed, and could help to solve at least the nutritional stress component of factors leading to CCD. Look for MegaBee to impact honeybee health this coming pollination season.
After many years of interest and funding, the ABC is also pleased to learn that a pheromone product is now available to stimulate brood production. Increased brood leads to increased foraging to raise the brood, and thus increased pollination activity.
"It's been almost 10 years to the day that we took pheromone extract off larvae and now finally have a product," says Dr. Tanya Pankiw, Texas A&M University. After working for many years at UC-Davis, then in Texas, where Pankiw received funding from the ABC at both locations, she and a partnering company have worked out the final two hurdles in R&D: 1) stabilizing the product, and 2) developing a suitable pheromone-release device.
"At one point I went to an ABC annual conference and heard in a bee seminar the desperation of beekeepers trying to keep hives alive and healthy for the huge almond pollination season, yet frustrated with the pace of the R&D process," Pankiw explained. "I cancelled a bunch of local beekeepers' meetings, went back to the lab, and worked non-stop to get this product out as soon as I could. That meeting had a big effect on me."
Pankiw alludes to the frustration of trying to find a company interested in taking the risk on a new product. After all, the beekeeping market is not as big as some other agricultural markets. And, unlike Wardell, who had his own entrepreneurial company assuming the R & D risk for MegaBee, Pankiw had to search until she partnered with a Canadian Company, Pherotech International, which produces and markets Super-Boost.
"It's taken a long time, but we've finally got a product now where tests show application of the pheromone increases foraging 30 percent to 40 percent."
Funding from industries such as the almond industry certainly helps researchers provide real products for improved agricultural production. Along with the dollars has to come some patience for the process. On the other side of the coin, research and academia need the constant reminders and exposure to industry to recognize the significance of their work and need for practical, timely solutions to their challenges.

A Rare-Earth Approach to Tracking ErosionBy Luis Pons
June 10, 2005
Two Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists believe that rare-earth elements may be the best tool for tracking--and pinpointing sources of--costly soil erosion.
Hydrologist John Zhang and agricultural engineer Mark Nearing of ARS like these compounds because they can be used quickly, accurately and safely to track erosion. It was Nearing who introduced the technology here from China.
Rare-earth elements, which are listed in their own niche of the Periodic Table of the Elements, are actually abundant in Earth's crust. But in soil, they're usually found only in tiny, trace amounts. According to Zhang, the trick to using them to track erosion is to place enough tracer in the soil so that its concentration in collected sediment is about
three times its usual concentration.
Zhang and Nearing mix them with soil and distribute them with a device similar to a fertilizer spreader. Later, in the lab, they detect the elements in sediment through a spectrometry procedure using a new extraction technique that they developed.
There are 30 rare-earth elements. The scientists are working with the following lanthanide oxides: lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium and gadolinium.
The researchers said the fine-powder elements are a more effective tool for tracking movement of eroding sediment than what's currently the most widely used tracer: minuscule amounts of the radioactive element cesium (137Cs) that originated from nuclear-bomb testing and spread across the landscape via atmospheric wind currents.
The scientists started this work when they were with ARS' National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory in West Lafayette, Ind. Zhang now works at the ARS Grazinglands Research Laboratory in El Reno, Okla., and Nearing is with the ARS Southwest Watershed Research Center in Tucson, Ariz.
Read more about the research in the June 2005 issue of Agricultural Research magazine.
ARS is the U.S. Department of Agriculture's chief in-house scientific research agency.

Blueprint – Hampshire Wedding Band
Blueprint have performed at 100′s of weddings around the UK and abroad over the last 3 years. We area popular and well know Hampshire wedding band.
A Hampshire wedding band you can rely on to put on a great show on your special day.
We are one of the most popular wedding bands in Hampshire, playing at venues in Southampton, Winchester, Basingstoke and Andover with years of knowledge of the best pop and rock music to play to make your event special.
Blueprint have performed at 100′s of weddings around the UK and abroad over the last 3 years.
What makes Blueprint unique is their ability to constantly update their Repertoire to include all the latest dance floor hits from the current decade. We also perform all the classics from the 50's through to the 00's.
If you're wedding venue is limited with its performance area. Blueprint duo take up very little space, and are able to fit into a much smaller surface area than a full live band.
Many wedding venues now have sound limiters installed to monitor the level of noise created by live music entertainment. Many venues have these meters set so low it is virtually impossible for a live band with acoustic drums, and guitar amplifiers to perform at such a low noise level, without the performance being severely compromised. Blueprint duo have only live vocals and guitar with the rest of the instruments on backing tracks, which makes the noise levels much easier to control than a full live band.
From the moment your evening guests arrive, you can be safe in the knowledge that the entertainment part of the wedding reception will be seamless. No awkward gaps between songs in the live performance, and a smooth seamless transition to the IPod playlist or Guy's DJing service (if opted for) in between the live music.
Blueprint duo will liaise with you efficiently and promptly through all stages of the booking process, 1st dance and song choices, and logistical details of your big day.
You can be confident in the knowledge you have booked an experienced, talented,and highly professional duo who will have all your wedding guests on the dance floor and talking about your wedding entertainment for years after the event.
Check out what others have said about us.
We provide a top of the range PA and Lighting system included in the quote – no need to book a separate sound and light company.
We can play up to 3 x 45 minute sets of varied music and can play music from an iPod inbetween the live sets. No need to book a separate DJ.
"Blueprint were excellent – great set list, excellent performers, got the party going and maintained their performance level all evening. "
"We were very impressed by Blueprint. They captured the spirit of the night; they were flexible and friendly and EVERYONE raved about them. We couldn't recommend them highly enough. Book them now!"
" Thank you so much for arranging everything for the evening. The duo was extremely popular and had the dance floor filled right from the start! Exactly what we were hoping for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you. Very best wishes and huge thanks."

Latest News
Ricky Nolasco's control is costly in Miami Marlins' loss to Reds
Walks are anathema to Ricky Nolasco, which is why he wore a pained look in Tuesday's second inning. Not only did Nolasco issue back-to-back walks — rare for him — he did so with the bases loaded.
And so it continues to go for the beleaguered Marlins, who began a nine-game homestand by maintaining their firm hold on last place with a 6-2 setback to the Cincinnati Reds.
The walks hurt Nolasco, as did Xavier Paul's bases-loaded double that immediately followed as the Reds put the game away early with a five-run second inning.
All of it happened with one out.
"Frustrating, obviously," Nolasco said.
While the Marlins have found all variety of manner in which to lose, Tuesday's was a surprising scenario given Nolasco's exceptional control. Since 2006, the year he made his major-league debut, Nolasco has the sixth-lowest ratio of walks per nine innings among pitchers who have totaled at least 1,000 innings.
According to Stats LLC, Nolasco had walked back-to-back batters (excluding intentional walks) only 10 times in a career totaling 203 pitching appearances.
What's more, he had issued a grand total of just four walks with the bases loaded, and never more than once in any of his eight seasons. On Tuesday, he did it twice in a matter of minutes.
That's all the time it took for the Reds' Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips to draw bases-loaded walks during an inning in which Nolasco — his marksmanship clearly off — also hit a batter.
Nolasco credited Votto with a good at-bat.
"He laid off some good pitches and fouled off a couple," Nolasco said.
But Nolasco was kicking himself for the walk to Phillips, blaming poor mechanics on the second of the two bases-loaded walks.
The performance was Nolasco's worst of the season, the first time he allowed as many as five runs (he was charged with six in five innings).
And though he only walked the two, they could not have come at a less desirable time.
"I've been doing a good job of staying away from that big crooked inning all year," Nolasco said, "but it got me today."
Once again, the worst run-scoring offense in the majors was up to its usual standard, squeezing out just one run off Reds starter Homer Bailey. That came in the first inning when rookie Derek Dietrich, hitting in the third spot in the lineup in front of fellow rookie Marcell Ozuna, delivered a run-scoring single.
It was the 38th different batting order used by manager Mike Redmond in the team's 39 games.
Beyond Dietrich's RBI hit, the Marlins didn't do much.
Redmond said the Marlins' anemic offense contributes to outings such as the one Nolasco endured Tuesday.
"It all kind of stems from our offense," Redmond said. "Going out there, he knows he can't give up much.
"He's trying to be perfect and trying to make too good of pitches, and ends up walking a couple of guys."
But Nolasco refused to use the team's lack of offense as an excuse.
"You got to go out there and get people out," he said. "Everybody knows what's going on. We still got to go out there and continue pitching.
"You can't go out there with that mind-set. Then everything just starts going bad."
The Marlins managed only three hits — all singles — off Bailey from the second inning through the sixth before Adeiny Hechavarria tripled and scored on catcher Rob Brantly's sacrifice fly in the seventh.
The complete game for Bailey was the fourth of his career and first since no-hitting the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sept. 28 of last season. His 10 strikeouts matched a career high. His 125 pitches were the most he had ever thrown in a game.

Continuing years of tradition, the New Bern Civitan Club once again has its Christmas tree lot set to open the day after Thanksgiving as a major fundraiser for local charities.
Continuing years of tradition, the New Bern Civitan Club once again has its Christmas tree lot set to open the day after Thanksgiving as a major fundraiser for local charities.
The club begins its 36th year of selling Yule-time trees and wreaths at a new location, due to construction on the storm water retention and drainage system at the New Bern Mall, home of the lot for many years.
The new lot opens at 10 a.m. Friday on U.S. 17 South between Enterprise Rent-A-Car and the Strike Zone. Hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturdays and 1 to 7 p.m. each Sunday. The sale continues until all the trees and wreaths are sold.
�We�ve changed our location, but not our prices,� said Jim Comer, the tree sales manager. �In recognition of these difficult economic times, we have frozen prices for a sixth consecutive year and have introduced a special discount for active duty military.�
The trees, which range from 6 to 9 feet, are priced $40, $50 and $60. Active duty military receive a $10 discount. Wreaths, which are made by a team of Civitan volunteers, sell for $25, or $20 with the purchase of a tree.
When the lot opens Friday, there will be nearly 500 Fraser firs on hand, freshly harvested from the mountains of Western North Carolina.
Civitan members gathered at artist Rich Daniels� home Monday and made the first 36 wreaths for this year�s sale. Last year, the volunteer made and sold more than 130 wreaths. The wreath-making crew included Tom Mundie, Joe and Norma Judd, Judy Lopez, Kris Rudzik, Cindy Scalion, Sharyn Foster and Ben St. John.
Civitan volunteers at the lot will limb and load the trees and provide printed instructions on how to care for the tree during the holiday season.
As in the past, the Civitans will also be selling Hubs peanuts for shipment to military personnel serving in Afghanistan.
The �Peanuts for Troops� are priced at $10 for one can or $20 for three cans. All proceeds from sales are used to maximize the number of cans shipped to the troops. Transportation of the peanuts to Afghanistan is coordinated through Cherry Point air station. Peanuts are also available for purchase by customers for their personal consumption.
During the upcoming month, Civitans will again hosts �Santa Land� at the tree lot, with more than 200 at-risk local children between the ages of 4 and 5 visiting. They will meet and be photographed with Santa and receive a gift and a pair of gloves, along with scarves that were hand-knitted by Civitan members.
All tree sale funds raised go directly to support local and regional charitable organizations and to Civitan sponsored research centers at Duke University and University of Alabama at Birmingham. These nationally recognized research centers focus on research into mental development and related issues.
Local charities supported include Special Olympics, Religious Community Services, MERCI Clinic, Promise Place, Coastal Women�s Shelter, Phoenix House, the Salvation Army and others. The New Bern Civitan Club also provides scholarships for deserving graduates of New Bern High School and students at Craven Early College.

Homegrown talent
"Local Talent Entertains at Harriet Tubman, PTA.
"The Harriet Tubman High School PTA held its first activity for the year, an October Feast.
"In reality, this was a 'kick off' dinner to start the PTA membership drive, as well as, to begin the 1963-64 activities. The program this year consisted of home talent rather than having a guest speaker from outside the county.
"Morris L. Woodson, Principal of the Guildford Elementary School, acted as Toastmaster. The Rev. Samuel Moore, Pastor, Unity Baptist Church Elkridge gave the invocation. A piano selection was rendered by Miss Lois Pickens, general music instructor at Harriet Tubman.
"A reading by Mrs. Daisy Chapman, Math and Language teacher, was given. Mr. Boyd, the Band Instructor at Guilford Elem. School and Harriet Tubman, accompanied by Miss Pickens gave an instrumental duet.
"Charles Griffin made a dramatic appeal for memberships for the coming year. Mrs. Gertrude Flurry, chairman of the PTA membership committee sang a solo and was accompanied by Mrs. Dorothy Craft."
October 1927
Henry Ford in our midst
"Henry Ford Visits B&O Exhibition
"Henry Ford, of Detroit, president of the Ford Motor Company, was in our midst on last Monday having slipped into Baltimore incognito and later made his way out to Halethorpe to 'take in' the Baltimore and Ohio century exhibition and pageant.
"His presence was soon discovered at the Fair of the Iron Horse and he at once became one of the center of attraction, but that did not detract one whit from his manifest interest in the exhibits, some of which he had himself supplied.
"His appearance in these regions quickly gave rise to rumors of the soon arrival of the new Ford model car for a glimpse of which the public has been patiently waiting any on this. But on this subject Mr. Ford refused to talk. Paul Morseberger, local Ford dealer, is dye-in-the-wool optimist and expects that the arrival of the new type of Ford car is not too very far distant. It is insisted however by Mr. Morseberger, that the new car, which is a distinct departure from the present model T, will fill all requirements of the public in a machine embodying speed and attractiveness and ease of control."
The Fair of the Iron Horse was a very big deal in these parts and nationwide. And many people, including my mom, had in their scrapbooks newspaper clips about this event.
October 1889
Death from consumption
In Times notes:
"Death of a Bright Young Man: David Wesley Holmes, the son of Mr. Joseph H. Homes, manager of Oella cotton mill, died at the home of his parents in Oella, Thursday morning at 1 o'clock after a lingering illness. The young man was in his eighteenth year and was possessor of a remarkably bright mind. Consumption was the cause of his demise. The funeral was Friday afternoon October 4th from his late home whence the remains were conveyed to Philadelphia for interment in Cedar Hill Cemetery. Rev. Henry Branch of the Presbyterian Church officiated.
"The man who robbed Miss Becket of Oella some two months ago, has been found in Norfolk, Va. His plunder was a gold watch and a sum of money. Officer Vansant has made arrangements to hand him over to the authorities at Towson.
"Justice Joseph N. Gordon, of the First district, was thrown from his horse Saturday and badly hurt. He was taken to his home, near Ilchester, in an unconscious condition. Medical aid was rendered by Dr. William K. Hodges, of Ellicott City."

To run a CNC laser you'll need a laser diode driver (current source) that can be modulated. I wanted a driver that can be modulated with an analog voltage as well in case I want to give EMC control over the laser power output. After some searching I settled on a modified StanHam. I changed the design by adding soft-start capacitors (though not tested yet) and made it all surface mount components and a beefier output transistor as I intend to run this up to one amp for my 445nm diode. The board layout is as follows:
and once populated it looks like this:
Pardon the messy tin, I'm trying to protect the copper layer from oxidizing away. Be careful when trying to run this for the first time. Most likely you'll short circuit the power supply 🙂 The driver is very sensitive to the position of the POTS RV1 and RV2. Start with RV2 set so that R6 is connected to ground and set RV1 so that R3 is connected to ground. Then apply power to P3 (0-5V) and start increasing RV1. You can estimate the current that will be flowing even before you attach your dummy laser by measuring the voltage over C4 multiply that by two and assume 1V=1A. So if you read 125mV, you driver would output 250mA. The voltage at pin1 of the IC should be twice the voltage at pin 3 and equal to the voltage over R10 when a diode or dummy load is present.

Distinguished Engineering Alumni Award
Edward F. Staiano
Class of 1958 and 1960
2008 Award Recipient
Congratulations, Edward F. Staiano.
You attended Bucknell University as a member of the Class of 1958, graduating with the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree. You continued your studies at Bucknell and completed the Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree in 1960. You also earned a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1967 at the University of New Mexico.
Since graduation you have distinguished yourself professionally and have provided noteworthy contributions to Bucknell University and the College of Engineering through service of more than 10 years as a professor at Bucknell University followed by subsequent service on the Board of Trustees, the Bucknell Engineering Alumni Association, and in numerous other volunteer roles within the University.
Your career began as a professor in the College of Engineering at Bucknell University in 1960. During your first year you offered a course in FORTRAN programming for students from Bucknell University, Lycoming College, and Susquehanna University. From 1964 through 1973 you served as director of the Freas-Rooke Computer Center. During your tenure at Bucknell, you founded a chapter of the Association of Computing Machinery and oversaw the installation of the Xerox mainframe computer which became the University's primary computing platform for a decade. Ahead of your time, you realized the applications for computers in all parts of Bucknell, and you were largely responsible for the drive to make the Computer Center a facility of university-wide application.
You left Bucknell in 1974 to begin a career with Motorola where you served as executive vice president, president and general manager until 1996. The Washington Post reported that, under your leadership, the cellular division grew to become Motorola's largest business.
In 1996 you joined Iridium LCCC as its director, and from 1997 to 1999 you served as vice chairman of the Board and chief executive officer of Iridium World Communications where you completed the funding to bring Iridium into commercial operation with the deployment of more than 80 satellites placed in orbit with rockets supplied by Russia, China, and the United States. You work in venture capital through The Sorrento Group, a company you founded in 1999. The Sorrento Group has funded 15 companies including a start-up telephone company in Italy.
The length and depth of your commitment to Bucknell has been extraordinary through your many service roles at the University. As a member of the Board of Trustees you have served on the Educational Policy, Finance, University Relations, Greek Affairs, Investment and Long-range Planning committees. In 1999 you received the Achievement in a Chosen Profession award from the Bucknell Alumni Association.
Your accomplishments, service, and dedication to your profession, to society, and to Bucknell University have earned you the respect and gratitude of Bucknell University's engineering alumni.
It is therefore with the highest regard and warmest affection that on October 25, 2008, the Bucknell University College of Engineering and the Bucknell Engineering Alumni Association present to Edward F. Staiano, Class of 1958 and 1960, the Distinguished Engineering Alumni Award.

Ian is extremely bright and very numbers-oriented. He's also very well connected. However, the investment process can be very tedious even for a small investment. It is essential to meet with certain members of the Band, committes, coaches, etc. Might only be worth it if you need to take down the high end of their range.PRIVATE: Members Only

Romanesco cauliflower (or broccoli). What an ideal name for a vegetable that looks like something from antiquity. This distinctive Italian vegetable is visually striking — unlike a rounded cauliflower, it sports pale lime green spirals that look like some sort of armor. But don't let it intimidate you. Inside, it tastes like a sweeter, nuttier cross between broccoli and cauliflower. It's available at local farmers markets right now, and its season is fleeting, so when you see one, buy it. Look for a firm, heavy head with little to no discoloration and store in the refrigerator for up to five days. Like broccoli and cauliflower, it can be eaten raw, boiled, baked, braised or sautéed. Cooking it briefly best preserves its color. It pairs well with salty foods like olives, pancetta and capers and is an ideal partner for pasta, rice and other grains like Italian farro.
Giving a nod to its Italian heritage, here are three Italian-inspired ways to enjoy Romanesco cauliflower:
- Pasta: Break into florets and blanch. Then sauté with sliced sun-dried tomatoes, cannellini beans and chopped olives, and add to your favorite pasta with grated cheese and olive oil.
- Roasted: Break into florets, drizzle with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and chopped rosemary and roast until tender.
- Mashed: Boil until smooth and mash with milk, grated Parmesan or Asiago cheese, minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes.

Checking in on the… OVCPosted by rtmsf on December 13th, 2008
Greg Miller of WPSD Local 6 is the RTC correspondent for the OVC and MAC Conferences.
On paper, this might seem like the same old Ohio Valley Conference. But the league, in fact, is actually off to a pretty good start. In Thursday's RPI, the OVC had three teams in the top 116. Last season, only two teams in the OVC finished in the top 200 (Austin Peay #64 and Murray State #179.) I know it's VERY early in the season, but Jacksonville State (#65) and Murray State (#93) are both top 100. It might not be much to most mid-majors, but it's a sign that OVC is moving in the right direction. Baby steps. But the reality check is Eastern Illinois is #343. That's #343 out of 343. Dead last in case you're still a bit confused. Tennessee State is not much better at #333. Like we said, baby steps. As a league, they're hovering around #23 in the RPI, which is a major upgrade from last year's #28 finish. In case you were wondering, the best the league has finished in the past decade was #18 in 2000 and 2001. Murray State has had the highest RPI finish this decade at #58 in 2004, which was also the last year the league had two teams finish in the top 100 (Austin Peay #94). Enough with the RPI, here are some quick hits from the past couple weeks in the OVC.

Epping Boys High School
I wanted to explore the relationship between two of society's most influential institutions: the corporation and the church. What motivates the creation of illegitimate offspring of these institutions? Is there a solid belief in the product they are pushing or is it just a means of profiteering? This is the final frontier of the free market, the branding of faith – but is it a corporation encroaching on sacred religious ground or is it religion encroaching on sleazy corporate ground? In a world where globalisation is a prevailing force and where millions are drifting away from traditional forms of faith, these two faiths, as such, of religion and corporatisation, are becoming closer and more entwined.

Washington Week: Running Down The ReturneesPosted by Connor Pelton on July 11th, 2012
The Huskies return four contributors from last season's team, along with guard Scott Suggs, who comes back after losing last year to a foot injury. The returnees range from sharpshooters to prolific passers to big men down low. Below, we'll take a look at each of these returnees in order of their scoring averages in the last season played.
- C.J. Wilcox, Junior, Shooting Guard (14.2 PPG, 1.1 APG, 3.4 RPG, 0.9 SPG) – If there was ever a player to average a quiet 14.2 PPG, Wilcox was that player last season. The sharpshooter was the one player coach Lorenzo Romar could always count on to make a clutch shot, yet he still was an afterthought to most casual fans because he played behind a pair of NBA first round draft picks in Tony Wroten, Jr., and Terrence Ross. He averaged a solid 28.5 MPG, but was basically fourth in the depth chart behind Wroten, Ross, and Abdul Gaddy. The best night of his season came on a Friday in Reno, where Wilcox played 38 minutes in Washington's 76-73 overtime loss against Nevada. In that game he matched his average of 14 points and three rebounds, but he also recorded two steals on the defensive end. An interesting trend in Wilcox's game revealed itself after coming back from a three-game layoff due to a stress-related hip injury. Romar was reluctant to play Wilcox for any substantial amount of time in the first five games of his return, in part because Wilcox was struggling to find his shot. The sophomore guard was only averaging about half his normal production through his first four games back, but then, while still playing fewer minutes than usual, he turned his game up a notch for the final stretch of the season. He poured in 22 points at UCLA, 20 against Northwestern, and 17 each at Oregon State and home against Oregon in an NIT quarterfinal game. By early March, Wilcox had completely gained back the minutes he had lost due to his hip injury. His totals near the end of the season should have Husky fans excited, as his quick-scoring ability should be able to soften the blow left behind by the losses of Ross and Wroten.
- Abdul Gaddy, Senior, Point Guard (8.1 PPG, 2.5 RPG) – Along with Suggs, it will be Gaddy's responsibility to provide some senior leadership at the guard position. The guy is a terrific passer, and can also kill you with a jumper if you give him enough room.
- Aziz N'Diaye, Senior, Center (8.0 PPG, 0.3 APG, 7.6 RPG) – N'Diaye is a monster on the glass, pulling down over seven boards a game in 2011-12. But with the departure of Darnell Gant, he will have to increase his production even more. The monster out of Senegal is no slouch either on the offensive end, as he is more than capable of putting in a double-digit scoring night. Twice in 2011-12 he had a stretch of three games with double-digit scoring figures, and he scored a season high 14 points against Seattle U. and California. Without question, N'Diaye will be counted on to shoulder the load in the post and balance out an offense that was mainly guard-oriented last year. Read the rest of this entry »

Minnesota Post-Secondary Child Care GrantPage address: https://www.mnsu.edu/campushub/childcare/
Minnesota's student population includes many parents who need affordable, quality child care in order to continue their education at a college or university. The Minnesota Higher Education Services Office (MHESO) administers the Post-secondary Child Care Grant Program. It allocates funds to eligible colleges, which then select and make awards to students.
Child Care Grant Application and Instructions
- 2018-2019 (PDF) or at Campus Hub, CSU 117
- Request for Infant Care Adjustment to Post-secondary Child Care Grant (PDF)
Student Eligibility
Finding and Selecting Child Care
Award Calculation
If you are not receiving AFDC or MFIP, you may be eligible to receive a child care grant. The maximum award for a full-time student is $5,200 per eligible child for the year and cannot exceed the actual cost of your child care expenses. The award calculation is based on family income, the number of eligible children, and your level of enrollment. The financial aid director has the authority to increase the maximum award by 10% for certain communities in which infant care is more costly than care for children of other ages.
You will receive the child care money at the beginning of the term after the add/drop deadline or as soon as you become eligible for the funds, whichever comes first, but not before the first day of class for the term. Child care awards will be divided evenly, and disbursed to recipients each semester based on the number of enrolled credits at the time of disbursement. The child care award will be disbursed to you in check form, sent to your permanent address, or by direct deposit if you have that set up with the Campus Hub.
A student who receives a child care award under this program and who continues to enroll at the school the following year must be given a child care award if the student remains eligible and if funds are available. However, you must complete a new application for the academic year by August 15th.
Child Care Tax Credit
Through the Child Care Tax Credit, you can receive credit on your state and federal taxes for dependent care expenses. Dependents include children under the age of 13, disabled dependents, or disabled spouse.
By taking advantage of the Child Care Tax Credit, your state and federal tax bills can each be reduced $1,050 for one qualifying individual, or $2,100 for more than one qualifying individual.
The federal tax credit is available to people of all income levels. The Minnesota tax credit is based on income.
Even if you receive child care assistance, you may be eligible for a federal and state tax credit - but only on the portion that you have paid for out of your own pocket.

VIDEO: Dirk and Monta Ellis run roughshod over the Rockets in comeback win
DALLAS — This was Dwight Howard's big night, a made-for-national-TV highlight reel. His coming-back party.
The big man couldn't miss from the floor, flushing alley-oops at will and swooping through the lane for lefty hooks as if he invented it. He made his first 11 shots, not missing until three minutes deep into the fourth quarter. He was even on fire, as much as Howard can be on fire, from the free throw line.
With a big lead in tow, Howard was strutting toward a season-high, which he got with 33 points on 12-for-16 shooting, and a Hack-a-Dwight-defying 9-for-13 from the stripe. The Houston Rockets were headed for a road romp, a beat down of their division-rival Dallas Mavericks, losers in the Howard sweepstakes no matter how Mavs owner Mark Cuban has tried to spin it. Again prior to Wednesday's game, Cuban couldn't help himself, suggesting the best deals are sometimes the ones you don't make, and that it's way too early to determine whether Howard or the Mavs' new guy, Monta Ellis, will ultimately be the most impactful free-agent addition.
Through three quarters, Ellis was putting on a show to be sure, but it was Dwight truly announcing his presence and taking names.
Until Ellis, the erratic shooting guard Cuban signed with his leftover free-agent cash, and the venerable all-timer, Dirk Nowitzki ended the party. The duo hijacked Dwight's night with one of the great two-man performances of the season — and in recent memory — in a rousing 123-120 win, rallying all the way from 93-75 late in the third quarter when the capacity crowd actually started to file out.
The Nowitzki-Ellis tally is eye-popping: 72 points on 26-for-38 shooting. Ellis, playing with a chip on his shoulder the size of Howard's bicep, went off for a season-high 37 points on 13-for-18 shooting and eight assists. Nowitzki poured in a season-best 35 points on 13-for-20 shooting, along the way overtaking Pacers Hall-of-Famer Reggie Miller for 15th on the NBA's all-time scoring list. It was an all-time efficient two-man binge: 4-for-9 from beyond the arc, 16-for-19 from the free throw line, 12 assists and nine rebounds.
Yet it all seemed headed for footnote status on the highlight shows as Howard's two-handed slams would play over and over.
In the fourth quarter it all ground to an inexplicable halt for Howard and Houston, which officially has a closing problem. It left coach Kevin McHale bleary eyed and exasperated.
Nowitzki and Ellis outscored the Rockets, 22-19 on 9-for-11 shooting. Heck, Nowitzki and Jose Calderon outscored them 21-19. Howard suddenly couldn't buy a bucket, going 1-for-5 in the quarter, and he got stripped late by Nowitzki in the paint as everything fell apart. Harden missed shots and hopelessly chased foul calls. Chandler Parsons, 4-for-5 from beyond the arc and playing beautiful basketball with 11 assists through three quarters, didn't take a 3 or dish a dime in the final 9:17 he played.
In the first three quarters, Houston scored 40, 28 and 33 points. Then poof. Again. Rockets fourth quarters are becoming as collapsible as a rickety lawn chair. One reason they're now 8-5 and looking up in the standings at the surprising 8-4 Mavs.
"It's growing pains," Howard said afterward. "Something we have to learn from. We're a young team. We've got to realize what we have in the locker room and what we can do as a team when we play the right way on both ends. We didn't do that at the end of the game."
While early season ogling has mostly been reserved for the Portland Trail Blazers' 10-2 start, the Mavs now quietly boast the same record through a dozen games as the mighty Los Angeles Clippers and those lovable Golden State Warriors. They're also 6-0 at home.
Ellis, devouring the doubts of his many skeptics and especially the analytic stat-crunchers, has been remarkably efficient playing alongside Nowitzki — 23.3 ppg on 49.5 percent shooting — who is happy as all get out to tag along for the ride after slogging through last season's offensive quicksand. It's not lost on anyone that Ellis has a better shooting percentage than Dirk.
"We're really just playing off of him," Nowitzki said of his newest sidekick. "He's been aggressive, he's handling the ball well, but what's been great is that he has been making plays for others. He's making all of us better. We run a lot of screen-and-rolls for him; I don't know how he does it, but he gets everyone involved and it's been fun to play with him."
On a night Dwight dominated, the Mavs had the better twosome for the four full quarters. And it's beginning to look like something the rest of the league better take note.
