| President Bush at Kansas State University | | I doubt there will ever be an outpouring of appreciation like this for President Obama. It doesn't seem like he works on the side of liberty but instead on the side of tyrants and dictators as demonstrated by his actions concerning Iran and Honduras.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz_ls-igmxM&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fnicedeb%2Ewordpress%2Ecom%2F2009%2F07%2F&feature=player_embedded[b]Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.[/b]

The way they have been playing for the last couple of years shows that we needed a different coach. I hope that we can find a better coach so we can start going back to some bowl games. | |

| | Do you marinate the meat before grilling? | | Marinades help keep grilled meat safe.I would like to share this article to everybody about this matter.You can have your steak and eat it, too, without producing harmful cancer-causing compounds, new research shows.As a matter of fact, marinating meat in antioxidant-rich spice blends can reduce the risk of these heterocyclic amines (HCAs) forming by more than 80 percent."If you are concerned about carcinogens, marinating a product, and this would be any kind of muscle food product, is a good way to dramatically reduce the formation of HCAs," said study author J. Scott Smith, a professor of food science at kansas state university. His research was published in the current issue of the Journal of Food Science. "The marinades would have to be rich in spices," Smith added.And although the researchers didn't specifically check this, Smith suspects that the antioxidants found in red wine and in many fruits and vegetables might also do the trick.HCAs are "suspected" human carcinogens produced in muscle foods that have been cooked at high temperatures. HCAs are created when heat acts on amino acids and creatinine in animal... | |
| | miami heat making noise. | | The Miami Heat picked Michael Beasley from Kansas State. I think that this is a great move since losing oneil and leaving wade byhimself. What do you think? Will it make a big impact. | |
| | Would you take Beasley??? | | ESPN reported that the Miami Heat have cooled on Kansas State forward Michael Beasley and are looking to either trade the pick or choose O.J. Mayo instead. Would you pass up the best scorer in this year's draft just because Shawn Marion decided not to opt out of the last year of his contract? | |
| | Eat your carrots! Why you ask... | | This info has been compiled by myself and others for educational purposes and MAY be SHARED freely which is our intention to promote helthy eating and stronger individuals and in turn help the world.Easy to pack and perfect as crudités for that favorite dip, the crunchy
texture and sweet taste of carrots is popular among both adults and
children. Although they are shipped around the country from California
throughout the year, locally grown carrots are in season in the summer and
fall when they are the freshest and most flavorful. The carrot has a thick, fleshy, deeply colored root, which grows
underground, and feathery green leaves that emerge above ground. It is known
scientifically as Daucus carota, a name that can be traced back to ancient
Roman writings of the 3rd century. Carrots belong to the Umbelliferae family
along with parsnips, fennel caraway, cumin and dill which all have the
umbrella-like flower clusters that characterize this family of plants. Health Benefits: Carrots are an excellent source of antioxidant compounds,
and the richest vegetable source of the pro-vitamin A carotenes. Carrots'
antioxidant compounds help protect against... | |
| | A Tale of Traveling in Modern Day Mid-America | | -DAY ONE-
At about 3:30 pm CST, Tuesday April 29th, Ozone hits the highway in Olney. After about an hour standing there, one of his friends sees him and gives him a ride to Noble IL (8 miles). Stood at Noble for about 15 minutes and was picked up by a woman (who shouldn't be picking up hitchhikers; she has one arm in a sling with a torn rotator cuff) who took me 13 miles down the road to Flora Il. After about 45 minutes standing there, we arrive at the first Police Incident. A Clay County Sherriff Deputy pulls over to run me for warrants and such, and then informs me it is illegal to hitchhike. (Oh, really?) So he puts me in the squad car and takes me to the county line (about 5 miles)with a stern warning not to be seen hitchhiking in his county again. So there I am, at the county line; BFE basically. So I start walking. About 2-3 miles down the road, I finally get a ride to Salem IL (21 miles farther). This is where I plan to get on the Interstate; unfortunately, it is now dark. After trying in vain to get a ride for 2 1/2 hours, at 10:30 pm I call it a night. Luckily, my step-son Joe lives in Salem, and was pleased as hell for Daddoo to show up. We smoked and talked 'til about... | |
