| McCain's character beyond question
Huckabee doesn't believe in evolution and the Mormon believes Jesus hung out with Indians in New York and will 'return to earth' in Missouri. My Republican Party has gone wacko. lynn wrote on Feb 3, 2008 9:16 PM:What's with so many politicians backing McCain and yet I don't know of one person who is voting for him? His voting record speaks for itself especially the shamnesty bill he wrote with his buddy Kennedy. El Jefe wrote on Feb 3, 2008 9:28 PM:Character? What a character is right! This is a guy that while he was still married to his first wife met his current wife & started to court the new girl. McCain dumped his first wife who had become paralyzed in an accident & then married the millionaire model. At least Romney earned his millions himself, he didn't have to marry a fortune & Romney is still married to his first wife.
Strawberries add flavor, moisture to pink cake
Dear Jeanne: I love this cake, but a cup of oil is a lot. Can you make it just as delicious with less oil? Jo Ann, Dallas Dear Jo Ann: This is a delicious and beautiful pink cake. I find that reducing the fat in cake mixes works very well, and the strawberries added to this one really add a lot of flavor, moistness and color. If you wish to reduce the amount of icing, use only two layers of cake and put the icing only on the tops, not on the sides. This method adds plenty of icing, and looks very nice. Adding fresh berries on top of the cake or on the serving plate adds extra nutrition and beauty. STRAWBERRY CAKE 1 box white cake mix 3 tablespoons flour 1 box strawberry gelatin 1/2 cup water 1 cup oil 4 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 cup frozen strawberries, thawed Icing: 1/4 pound butter or margarine 1-pound box powdered sugar Strawberries, thawed Preheat oven to 350 F.
UB Founds Honors College for Exceptional Students
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The University at Buffalo announced today the founding of The University Honors College, marking a major milestone in UB's long tradition of providing honors programming for exceptional undergraduate students. UB Provost Satish K. Tripathi hosted a founding ceremony for The University Honors College with UB President John B. Simpson on the UB North (Amherst) Campus. Establishment of The University Honors College is a significant step forward in the evolution of UB's honors program, which was launched in 1981 as the first formal honors program in the State University of New York system. UB traces the beginnings of its honors program back to 1923 when it offered one of the first honors tutorials in the U.S. "Today's founding of a full-fledged honors college with a four-year curriculum will enable our honors students to take fuller advantage of UB's tremendous intellectual resources," Tripathi said.
Somerset Power gets OK to begin coal gasification
The Department of Environmental Protection on Thursday gave the green light to Somerset Power LLC's plan to begin coal gasification at its Riverside Avenue plant. Outraged environmentalists and community activists called the decision unacceptable and said it significantly undermined the state's global warming policy. Earlier this month, the state's Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs declined to order a Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act review of the plant. The Conservation Law Foundation, which lobbies on environmental issues in New England, asked for the review. "In a final permit issued by DEP, the commonwealth said it would allow the power plant to adopt experimental coal plasma gasification technology and continue releasing carbon dioxide at current levels," said the foundation's spokesman Colin Durrant.
