Safeguarding U.S. Borders
The USDA is stepping up efforts to protect the U.S. against foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) says Beth Lautner, DVM, National Pork Producers Council (NPPC).
The "virtual safety net" around U.S. borders consists of:
Alerting officials at U.S. ports of entry to check passengers and luggage for items that could carry FMD.
Increasing personnel and dog teams at airports to check incoming international flights. More than 200 additional, temporary inspectors will cover high-traffic international ports.
Reminding inspection personnel to check cargo and passengers arriving from the United Kingdom.
Alerting private veterinarians to watch for signs in domestic livestock.
Ensuring military vehicles are washed and disinfected prior to reentry into the U.S.
Increasing the USDA budget supporting inspection activities by $11.8 million.
Many other related activities have been coordinated by USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to alert and protect the U.S. livestock industry from FMD.
The National Association of State Departments of Agriculture has agreed to explore carcass disposal in each state.
APHIS is conducting a risk assessment of potential pathways of FMD into the U.S.
A 30-second FMD video public service announcement has been mailed to 1,200 television stations.
Extension agents will receive an informational package of APHIS activities on safeguarding the U.S. from FMD.
More articles on foreign animal disease start on page 18.
Farm Visitor Policy
The University of Nebraska's Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources (IANR) has adopted a farm visitor policy to guard against foreign animal disease.
"We have an obligation to ensure that the university's livestock are not exposed to these very damaging diseases," explains Darrell Nelson, dean and director of the school's agricultural research division. Livestock has been selected over generations for specific traits that meet research needs.
Under the new rules, all domestic and international visitors to IANR must fill out a questionnaire. They must document country of origin, countries visited in the past two weeks and contact with animals in the past two weeks.
"Visitors from countries with foot-and-mouth or other serious disease outbreaks will not be allowed to enter our animal research facilities," says Nelson. "Visitors from countries without disease risks will be allowed to visit research facilities with the permission of the unit administrator, provided that they have not been in a country with a disease outbreak in the past 14 days."
American visitors overseas must wait 14 days after their return for entry. Special permission may be granted to domestic visitors who only traveled to disease-free countries, didn't visit farms or had no animal contact.
Learn more about IANR on their Web site, www.ianr.unl.edu.
Japan Lifts Pork Ban
The recent lifting of Japan's ban on pork imports from some European Union (EU) countries has cost U.S. pork exporters their chance of capitalizing on the situation.
Some U.S. analysts had expected Japan's ban on Danish pork imports due to concerns about foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) in Europe would provide a growing market for U.S. and Canadian pork exports. Danish pork exports accounted for 77% of EU meat exports to Japan in 2000.
Although the ban was lifted, it was stipulated that meat can't enter Japan until three weeks after slaughter. Japan's ban was lifted for Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Austria. The ban remains on meat and animals from Germany, Italy, Belgium and Spain.
Direct impact on the U.S. from the EU's FMD outbreak is largely confined to the pork market, according to USDA's Economic Research Service. The U.S. had previously banned EU beef products due to concerns about bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). The ban on EU pork products will remain in effect until it is determined that FMD is no longer spreading and that infection is at a low level, says a USDA spokesman. The EU exported 196 million lb. of pork to the U.S. in 2000. Some 54% of that product was fresh and frozen pork, which is banned. Cooked pork products are allowed. Pork imports from Denmark accounted for 76% of that total.
Video Boar Auction
The first video auction of maternal Yorkshire and Landrace boars is 7:30 p.m. June 1 at the Midwest Type Conference, Illinois State Fairgrounds, Springfield, IL.
This new event is sponsored by the National Swine Registry (NSR), West Lafayette, IN. It will feature pre-screened maternal genetics representing some of the top sow productivity bloodlines in each breed, based on estimated progeny differences generated by the STAGES program.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (May 7, 2009) - A year removed from upsetting Norte Dame in the first-round of the NCAA Tournament the No. 61st ranked ETSU men's tennis team will look to play spoiler once again as the Bucs open the 2009 NCAA Championship against in-state rival Tennessee with a 1 p.m. match Friday at the Goodfriend Tennis Center Varsity Courts in Knoxville.
The Bucs and the fifth-ranked Volunteers will square off, following the first match of the day that features No. 51 Radford (20-3), who won the Big South Tournament, and No. 23 Duke (15-8). This is the second time this spring that the Bucs (13-7) and Vols (21-6) will face one another, as Tennessee opened the dual match season with a 6-1, victory over ETSU in January.
ETSU has not played since claiming its third straight Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament title two weeks ago, as the Bucs rolled past Stetson 4-2. ETSU will be making its seventh NCAA tournament appearance and third straight in the last three seasons under head coach Yaser Zaatini. The Bucs are 1-5 all-time in the tournament after winning its first NCAA match last May. Both the Vols and Bucs have one other common fact, as both faced one of the toughest schedules in the nation, with ETSU playing 10 ranked opponents this spring, while the Vols squared off against nine.
Individually, senior captain Enrique Olivares (Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela) leads the Buc attack, after earning his second straight invitation to the NCAA Singles Championship last week, after posting a remarkable 31-9 record as the highest ranked singles player in A-Sun history.
In one of the most anticipating matches Friday, Olivares should face Tennessee's J.P. Smith at the No. 1 singles position. The No. 18-ranked Olivares and Smith have one of the top rivalries in the region as both ranked players have squared off three times in the past year. Olivares knocked off Smith at the prestigious D'Novo/ITA All-American this past fall, while Smith got the better of the two All-Americans defeating Olivares both in the NCAA Singles Championships quarterfinals last May and in the Vols victory over the Bucs earlier this spring.
Tennessee comes into the match after receiving an at-large bid into the field. The Vols are led by ranked players Smith, who is No. 5 in singles nationally, and sophomore teammate Boris Conkic, who sits at No. 37. Overall, Tennessee is making its 20th NCAA appearance. The Vols are 27-19 all-time in championship play, while posting an 11-1 mark at home in the postseason.
Attached above is a copy of the ETSU men's tennis postseason notes and quick facts, in addition to the tournament central webpage, which features live stats and updates throughout the match.

Post subject: Easy Indian - Dal and Biryani
I recently toured north and south India with a small group for a month. The food was a most important aspect of the fun we had. We sampled anything and everything from any source. It was curious that near the end of the tour there were 3 favorite menu items out of dozens sampled - thali, biryani, and dal. Thali is an amazing sampler of several small savory stews and yogurts that are dipped up with naan or stirred in a ball of rice. Of course it is often eaten only with the right hand, no utensils. Biryani and dal are much simpler dishes that are cheap and satisfying.
When I returned home I set about re-creating my own Indian food. Thali seemed to be a daunting undertaking for a beginner, so I took on dal and biryani - 2 simple peasant foods - cheap, nutritious, and delicious. After many experiments, some that ended up being discarded, I have put together a couple recipes that consistently produce a delicious outcome from easy to find ingredients. They are not hard and fixed recipes. I use them as an outline and change them a bit every time. They are also under seasoned to better suit serving to timid dinner guests. I always heat up my own portions substantially. Either recipe will serve 4 hungry adults.
Easy Dal
2 Tbls coconut or olive oil
1 onion coarsely chopped
1 Tbl garlic chopped (4-5 cloves)
2 tsp cumin seeds
½ tsp ground cardamom
2 cups uncooked lentils (washed and stones removed)
4 cups broth chicken or vegetable (substitute some coconut milk)
1 cup plain yogurt
1 ½ cups chopped tomatoes, fresh or canned, (or 1 ½ cups green salsa)
2 Tbl grated ginger or galanga
1 chopped jalapeno pepper (optional)
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 bunch fresh cilantro greens chopped
Heat oil in wok or other large pan (with cover available for later use.)
Saute onion for 1-2 minutes. (Or hold some/all to add last for fresh onion taste.)
Add garlic, cumin, and cardamom. Saute 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add broth, lentils, yogurt, tomatoes, ginger, jalapeno, and turmeric.
Stir and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to barely boiling and cover.
Stir often.
Check lentils every 15 minutes until cooked tender and no raw flavor, usually about 45 minutes total.
Should finish with a very thick soup consistency. If too thin, stir in some mashed potatoes, or other starchy thickening vegetable. If too thick, stir in more broth.
Stir 1/2 of the chopped cilantro, then top with the balance of the cilantro just before serving.
Top with yogurt and serve with rice, or flat bread. Tortillas are good.
Even better as leftovers!
Easy Chicken Biryani
1 to 2 pounds chicken pieces (dark is better) or cubed firm tofu
1 onion coarsely chopped
1 Tbl garlic chopped (4-5 cloves)
¼ coconut or olive oil
2 tsp ground clove
2 tsp ground cardamom
2 tsp cumin seeds
1 ½ cups plain yogurt
1 tsp salt
1 Tbl grated ginger or galanga
1 tsp ground tumeric
2 cups rinsed jasmine or basmati rice (jasmine for sticky biryani, basmati for fluffy biryani)
3 cups broth, chicken or vegetable (or substitute some coconut milk)
1 bunch chopped fresh cilantro greens
Heat oil in very large pan or wok (that has a cover to be used later.) Brown chicken about 5 minutes.
Add onion, garlic, clove, cardamom, and cumin. Saute for 1 2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add yogurt, salt, ginger, and tumeric. Stir. Simmer until liquid reduced to about 1 cup. Stir occasionally.
Add rice and broth. Stir to cover rice with liquid. Bring to boil, then cover and reduce to simmer for about 20 minutes, or until liquid absorbed and rice tender.
Stir in 2/3 of the chopped cilantro, then top with the balance of the cilantro just before serving.
Very good as left-overs! Maybe better.

Post subject: biryani
glad you had a good time in India.
However, whatever you had there as biryani is not what you have given in your recipe. This is a pilau, not a biryani, the latter I could never call an 'easy dish'. The differences are many.
A pilau is a dish of rice and meat and/or vegetables, all cooked together. A biryani (there are tens of different versions) is primarily a meat and rice dish, where the meat and rice can be pre-cooked, partially cooked or raw (with par-boiled rice). The technique is difficult to perfect, especially if raw lamb (goat) is used. Also, the biryani is layered, that is with alternating layers of rice and meat, and finnished 'on dum' (steamed) in a pot sealed with dough for maybe 30 minutes, hardly an easy dish.
I'm sure you enjoy your pilau, but please don't call it a biryani.
Here's one I made earlier: Navrattan prawn biryani.

Post subject: That looks good, Watt
In a month's time we never had such a fancy looking dish, although we did eat a couple dozen items ordered as "biryani" on the menu that were quite close to what my recipe produces. Whatever you call it, I just finished up a batch of my recipe and found it quite an acceptable meal.

Post subject: Biryani
it may be a comment on where you ate your meals in India. Biryanis are difficult to cook properly, take many hours of preparation and are not cooked 'on demand', (though the 'Biryani Merchant' tried!)
Most restaurants outside of the Indian sub-continent who serve what they term is biryani is usually no more than a fried (or left-over) meat, mixed with rice of some kind, not even a pulao.
Yours is a pulao, and I'm sure you like it, and that it satisfies you. But if you ever try to cook a biryani (and I urge you to try) I'm sure you will appreciate the difference.

I was born/grew up in south india, and visit regulary. I have
seen such a ridiculously layered dish. Indian cooking is mostly devoid of pretentious presentations. and I think OP's recipe is decently close, except in my experiences everything is cooked together in a pressure cooker. Often inside the pressure cooker you layer the meat and rice but it is never served that way, it's promptly mixed after cooking.

Very happy discovery, I stumbled across this site yesterday and have already put it to use. My wife is of Goan/Portugeuse decent and is cooking for curry night with friends tonight. Usually she has everything covered, a couple of types of curry and a few side dishes. Now it's my time to shine with some dal
I'm in the middle of cooking this right now, just letting it simmer at the moment. Verdict and photos to follow.

It is vital that compliant Terms of Trade, a proactive Debt Recovery process and Credit Checking of Clients is in place when credit is provided for amounts as low as $500.
I recently attended a meeting with a large company in the marketing and telemarketing sector based in Berkeley Vale on the Central Coast. They advised that 60 to 70 percent of their clients are small businesses with accounts up to $500 (unsecured), that are allowed to continue to trade for 90 days plus, without Terms of Trade in place. Since the initial meeting where we uncovered the cause of their cash flow being the lack of an adequate credit management system, the directors have moved to address the problem emphatically by implementing up to date Terms of Trade and outsourcing debts at 90 days overdue for EC Credit Control to recover. In addition the directors have decided that for larger accounts up to $10,000 a credit checking system with Veda is mandatory to ensure peace of mind for these larger extensions of credit (a decision made by directors).
In the current commercial environment, any business that does not have a comprehensive credit management system in place as a credit provider is at great risk. This is one of the biggest mistakes business can make as any business, no matter how long they have been trading for, can suffer from unpaid accounts.

gallen97 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 80 designs submitted by 24 freelance designers.
Design an iphone icon and company logo for a new company that provides real-time, accurate traffic information.
ETA is a company that gives users real time automobile traffic information. It provides users with accurate arrival times to chosen destinations: the airport, work, home, grandma, the beach ect.
The logo will be used on the website, the splash page for the iphone and marketing collateral. The icon will be used on iphone as the official application button or icon.
As far as desing motif: I like the 70's funkadelic orange color scheme/font with perhaps an old school picture of an aiplane. Otherwise, I look forward to your suggestions.

Current TV, the struggling news/talk channel co-founded by former Vice President Al Gore, is in advanced talks to sell itself to Al Jazeera, the Qatar-based cable news company, a person close to the stituation confirmed.
An announcement regarding a sale could come as early as Wednesday afternoon. The talks were first reported by the New York Times.
Majority owned by Gore and his business partner Joel Hyatt, Current has been on the block for several months. The cable channel, which originaly focused on short-form documentary programs, has in recent years tried to rebrand itself as a news outlet for liberal viewers. The hope was that such a move would bring it more viewers and ad revenue.
However, when the high-profile hiring of commentator Keith Olbermann backfired, so did the channel's hopes of competing with other cable news outlets. Olbermann was pushed out after clashing with management last year.

Much ado has been made about the claims of Team I.C.E., who announced they would be first to market with a 360 mod chip and were subsequently found out as being a fraud. In a Sherlock Holmes-ian turn of events, the hacker e-zine Blacklisted 411 (PDF) ran an in-depth feature on the story behind the scam. GamerAndy paraphrases the story accordingly:
Ustler was able to uncover that icemodchip.com (the website of the 'chip') is linked to infinitymods.com (a supposed reseller) and rarecodes.com (a Socom cheat forum turned webhosting service with no valid payment mechanism? wtf?). He also dug up some dirt on the owner. Apparently SkyD A.K.A. Evan O'Keefe is the owner of the sites. He's a long-time forum lurker many-time banned internet persona with some interesting trails all over the place (including some personal pictures...). Contacts from highly reputable sources within the Xbox underground confirm that no real samples have ever been seen or tested, all of the videos of 'proof' are fake, and any attempts to meet 'Team I.C.E.' in person have been met with excuses and lies.
To make a long story very short, this guy SkyD has just been outed big time and this is probably just the beginning of the information being dug up on him and his fake mod team.
Nothing quite like a self-policing community, is there? Of course, this still begs the question of when the first 360 mods will start showing up. Team Xecuter has gone on record as saying that "there will be more than one type of mod available from different groups in the coming weeks/months," but with Microsoft's well-crafted hardware approach to the 360, methinks softmods will be the first on the scene. Of course, now that we can watch DivX-encoded content via the 360, I can wait a little bit longer for XBMC 360.

Chris Pine Denounces U.S. Response To Russia's Anti-Gay Law
Actor Chris Pine is currently making the promotional rounds for his latest film, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, a Tom Clancy based thriller that deals with the tensions between the U.S. and Russia.
Pine has his own issues with current relations between the two countries, especially as it pertains to Russia's anti-gay laws and the response by the United States.
According to The Associated Press:
Chris Pine says the U.S. should have done more in the run-up to the Sochi Olympics to protest Russia's anti-gay legislation, which he calls "clearly awful, archaic, hostile nonsense."
"I think we should do more than just send gay Olympians there," the 33-year-old actor said in an interview while promoting his film "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit." ''What's happening there in terms of gay rights or the lack of it is extraordinary and awful."
What's your take on Pine's stance??
Thanks to Chris for his comments. But really, do we honestly think that the Soviet-era mindset of "crush 'em 'til they give up" simply vanished in 1991 when the Soviet Union was dismantled? I don't think so, and their true colors are being shown now. And, the US' true colors are showing as well - an official slap on the Russian's hands along with demands, but nothing very strong.
It's really not even just about gay rights, it's about being able to live whatever life you choose without harm to anyone else. I'm surprised the Russians are now hiding behind religion when's urging the Soviet era, they were largely a non -religious state. They are simply looking for people to take their aggression out on, bullying, chauvinism, and masichism being hallmark traits of the post-Soviet Russian society.

Understood, appreciate your advice, I'll take them off. Just for my own understanding could you/ anyone PM me the disclaimer or legality over that? Do you also mean I should take down his Paypal/ Email Address from my post?A lot of music forums post rip-off lists of record labels and addresses. I would imagine the whole 'invasion of privacy' thing, but listing a phone number (which is often found off the Yellow Pages) may not be illegal. I don't have enough resources right now since I'm on the road, but it's just a thought.
i'm sorry to hear this dude.
I hope this is resolved quickly and peacefully.
I'd say wait until you receive your statues before removing anything. What a creep.
I guess you're right on that one. I got an email from him a little over a week ago telling me, quote "Sorry for the late answer, I haven't been able to connect to Internet before. I have just given the skullknight statue to my friend, he should send it at the end of the week if he can. For the other statues, I'm sorry but I don't know when I will be able to send them since I can't manage to find enough money for the shipping. I hope I will be able to sell enough things. And another news, I have just lost my job because I have been ill (and so not working) for too much time.". I was in a good mood just before I got his email, enjoying the hurricane and it got squashed. I let him know that I removed his name, etc. as he requested but he wasn't holding up to his end of the bargain. Also told him that I needed concrete time~lines on when he would ship all statues to me. His last email said he'd send them all by the end of Aug and each time it comes close to a proposed date, something or the other would come up. So, yeah since my email there's been no response. Sent him reminders and will prolly mail the correspondence to his address for my own sanity.
Berserk isn't really "dark fantasy" either. It's plain fantasy
Miura has been very protective of Berserk
I hope you are good.Sorry for the late answer, I have only been able to connect to Internet now. I have some good news for YOU.I have gathered enough money to send you a second package (with the one my friend should send this week (I don't know why he hasn't done it yet)). I will try to put in it the maximum statues I can. I haven't eaten for a week so I can do it but as I told you YOU are the first priority.I will give you the tracking numbers as soon as they are sent.I have checked your posts on the forum and you can say what is happening and that I am horrible but please don't lie about me... I have seen many things which are not true about the transactions and I don't understand why you are doing this. You are already the "victim" so why putting other things which are not true ??I have just seen that you have put again my real name, residence address and mail address on the forum. Do as you want even if it's illegal... (also if you thought about the situation a little, if I was lying, regarding my situation, I would have sold the statues to someone else... But sure I'm the worst person in the world and I have been punished for it with all the things happening to me even if it started before...)From now, I will only send mails when I can for giving you the tracking numbers and what are in the packages. I don't want to try to describe my situation since it is too tough to understand for other people and for being hated by people I even don't know... Thanks for that !If you don't want to trust me don't trust me. I am in such a terrible situation that I don't care what you think now, the important is that I sent to you YOUR statues.To comfort you, I will try to die in horrible pain just after I will have sent to you the last package so you will have your revenge. I may seem very strange to you but if you would have the life I have now, I don't now if you would be able to bear it...Olivier
Hi Olivier,I appreciate your reply and the effort you've mentioned (below) about shipping the statues. Do thank your friend from me for helping you out. I look forward to your email with the tracking numbers, thanks for self-acknowledging that it is something you will do after you have shipped the statues. I would appreciate it if you would let me know which statues were shipped in that package/ those packages so I can keep a track of them at my end if I have to deal with customs. With regard to putting your real name, address and email address on the topic - it was done because (i) it is not illegal to do so, and (ii) you did not hold up to your end of the bargain when you told me you would ship my statues by the end of Aug and in return I was to take off your information from the post. At the end of the month you wrote to me that you wouldn't be able to send it, which was a pattern I had seen before if you don't mind me saying so. Hence, I came to the conclusion that you did not honor your own agreement in your email to me. Could you tell me exactly what is untrue about our transaction(s) and what I've lied about? Be specific in your response because from ALL the emails I have and ALL the correspondence we've shared I don't see ANYTHING that is incorrect/ false. If you respond saying you don't want to get into it for some reason, I will assume you just made a pointless accusation of me lying about what's transpired. This will not be the first time you've said something and backed out of it or lied to me later.About the trust issue, even after everything happened (with you not responding to my emails for months end when you were responding to emails from a friend of mine and gave ME some excuse when I finally took some action) I trusted you enough to give you a month to ship out the statues if you recall. You replied around the end of the month to say you couldn't ship it because you were moving. I still gave you enough time to send it after that setback. You then responded in a later email indicating that you would send the statues by the end of the month. You asked me to take out your information, which I did promptly. At the end of the month you sent me your email saying you could not send it. I feel like I'm doing everything from my side and giving in to your untrustworthy emails or demands. I still have some hope that you will send the statues because if I didn't, I would have reported you to the authorities (you have the information where I was going to report it). I don't understand where you're coming from in your last paragraph but this ordeal isn't about 'revenge'. I don't have the time for it and this isn't fun for me. This's about me paying you money for something you sold to me over the internet and while the money was sent to you, the goods were not sent to me and it's been over 7 months since I received the goods I paid for. If you don't eat for a whole week, that's your prerogative. Don't confuse the situation. I've paid a premium for each statue inclusive of shipping. I've mentioned this before a few times and will say it again - if you cannot ship the statues to me, I welcome you to refund me all the moneys sent to you for the transaction. Regards

News Release 07-085
Inv. No. 337-TA-612
Contact: Peg O'Laughlin, 202-205-1819
The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has voted to institute an investigation of certain nitrile rubber gloves. The products at issue in this investigation are nitrile rubber gloves for hand protection.
The investigation is based on a complaint filed by Tillotson Corporation d/b/a Best Manufacturing Company of Menlo, GA, on July 19, 2007. Tillotson filed a supplement to the complaint on August 8, 2007. The complaint, as supplemented, alleges violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation into the United States of certain nitrile rubber gloves that infringe a patent owned by Tillotson. The complainant requests that the ITC issue a permanent exclusion order and permanent cease and desist orders.
The ITC has identified the following as respondents in this investigation:
By instituting this investigation (337-TA-612), the ITC has not yet made any decision on the merits of the case. The case will be referred to the Honorable Charles E. Bullock, an ITC administrative law judge, who will schedule and hold an evidentiary hearing. Judge Bullock will make an initial determination as to whether there is a violation of section 337; that initial determination is subject to review by the Commission.
The ITC will make a final determination in the investigation at the earliest practicable time. Within 45 days after institution of the investigation, the ITC will set a target date for completing the investigation. ITC remedial orders in section 337 cases are effective when issued and become final 60 days after issuance unless disapproved for policy reasons by the U.S. Trade Representative within that 60-day period.

2006 Jeep Commander ReviewThis car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
A Jeep that seats seven.
Jeep has long been known for vehicles that enable owners to go anywhere, do anything, at least in spirit.
Jeep is expanding its product line, and in coming years it may include pickup trucks, crossover SUVs and youthful small sedans that drive like rally cars. Strictly speaking, this is not a new adventure for Jeep, which has offered a line of pickups (Gladiator) utility vehicles (Willys Station Wagons) and AWD cars (AMC Eagle) in the past.
But in the new 2006 Commander, Jeep offers a capability no Jeep has had before: three-row seating and the ability to carry seven passengers. Equipped with a higher level of safety and security features than any previous Jeep, the Commander represents the first salvo in Jeep's upcoming product offensive.
The Commander comes in two models, the Jeep Commander ($27,290), and the Commander Limited ($35,585). Two-wheel drive (2WD) is standard, but 4WD is available for both the base model ($29,290) and the Limited ($38,205).
The base model Jeep Commander comes standard with a 3.7-liter SOHC V6, rated at 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. The V6 is mated to a five-speed automatic transmission designed to balance performance and fuel economy.
On 4WD models, the standard system is Jeep's Quadra-Trac I, which is an automatic full-time all-wheel-drive system enhanced by electronic traction control.
Standard features on the Commander include air conditioning, AM/FM stereo with CD player and 6 speakers, power windows, power heated mirrors, power eight-way driver's seat, flipper glass on the liftgate with remote control, all-terrain tires on 17-inch cast aluminum wheels with tire-pressure monitoring, and speed control.
The Commander Limited comes with a bigger engine, more sophisticated driveline engineering and a wide array of comfort and convenience options. It can be distinguished by distinctive chrome accents and trim on the grille and throughout the body. Standard is the 4.7-liter V8 engine, rated to produce 235 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque. A different five-speed automatic transmission, with taller ratios and three planetary gear sets, backs both the 4.7-liter V8 and the optional 5.7-liter Hemi V8.
The optional 5.7-liter Hemi V8 ($845), producing 330 horsepower and 375 pound-feet of torque, is available with fuel-saving Multi-Displacement System (MDS) technology, which shuts down cylinders as the opportunity arises under light load conditions.
The Commander Limited 4x4 models come standard with a full-time active 4WD system, Jeep's Quadra-Trac II. The system is Jeep's newest and most advanced, and includes a two-speed transfer case with front and rear electronic Limited Slip Differentials, allowing all available torque to be transferred to any wheel with traction.
Standard features on the Commander Limited include air conditioning with dual-zone temperature control, leather-trimmed bucket seats with memory, power adjustable pedals, the SmartBeam intelligent headlight system, power sunroof with skylights, eight-way power driver seats and four-way power passenger seats, and an AM/FM stereo with a six-disc in-dash CD player and MP3 capability with six Boston Acoustic speakers. Also standard is Sirius Satellite Radio with one-year subscription, security alarm, tire pressure monitoring display, rear cabin climate controls and universal garage door opener.
Options include rear DVD, engine block heater, Saddle Brown seating surfaces, full map GPS display with navigation radio, and 17-inch chrome-clad wheels.
Jeep tells us the Commander has the highest level of safety and security ever offered on a Chrysler Group vehicle. ABS braking is complimented with electronic stability control (ESP) to enhance driver control. Brake Assist, a system that actively applies maximum braking in panic situations, works to provide the shortest possible stopping distances. Side-curtain air bags with a roll detection system deploy in case of rollover and/or side impact. Front air bags are multi-stage type that deploy in stages according to the severity of an impact event. The frame and body structure are constructed to manage impact energy in the event of a collision, working in conjunction with the air bag and seat belt systems, which are equipped with belt pretensioners and constant-force retractors.
The Commander is instantly recognizable as a Jeep, thanks to liberal use of Jeep design cues, such as the seven-slot grille, trapezoidal wheel wells, and squared-off lines with flat surfaces. Exposed Allen head bolts along the wheelwells and in the headlamp module are decorative, intended to create a technical look.
The Commander is larger than the Grand Cherokee: longer by 2 inches and nearly 4 inches taller, due mostly to a stepped roof line that makes headroom for the rear-seat passengers. The stepped effect is concealed by a roof rack rail, which is standard on all models. Body sides are more vertical than those on most SUVs, consistent with Jeep design heritage. From the rear, the flat hatch and prominently squared-off D-pillar assist handles help define a boxier space that reminds us of the Hummer H2.
A sense of spaciousness is the reason customers will be attracted to the Commander. From the driver's seat, the Commander retains the cozy look and feel of a Grand Cherokee. The difference begins behind the driver, where the raised roof permits use of stadium seating, in which each row is higher than the one in front of it.
Second- and third-row passengers have enhanced forward visibility. Overhead skylights add an airy feeling for passengers in the second row. The skylights are fixed and don't open, but they have pull-out shades to filter light and reduce heat.
The third-row seats will accommodate an adult, but seem more likely to be designed for children in the eight- to 10-year-old range. To access the rear, the second-row seat flops forward, allowing a careful adult a reasonably easy path to one of the split-bench seats, which are divided 50-50. We hopped in and out a few times ourselves. My average size and weight allowed me to make my way into the third row with minimal effort. Still, the Commander is only a few inches bigger than a standard Grand Cherokee, so back-row seating is not ideal for taller adults and longer trips. The third row does have available rear heating and air conditioning controls, and nearby power points.
Both the second- and third-row seats fold perfectly flat to create a load floor, and there is an L-shaped storage bin located behind the third-row seats. The arrangement means that there will always be a practical way to configure the Commander for either more passenger seating, or added cargo and gear. It strikes us as versatile, with few designed-in tradeoffs. The load floor height is relatively high, however, at 36.2 inches, meaning it requires extra effort to load cargo.
Driving Impression
We had the opportunity to spend a day in the Commander starting in the Philadelphia area, leaving the city and traveling toward the Pocono Mountains, first on interstate highways and finally, on smaller two-lane roads. Our test unit had the 4.7-liter V8 engine, five-speed automatic transmission and practically every option other than the Hemi.
The cockpit of the Commander has a cozy, cocooning feel to it. The seats are nicely shaped and padded, and the steering wheel, a four-spoke design with cruise control buttons at the thumb positions, has the substantial feel of leather and exposed stitching. It was warm and humid that day in Philadelphia, but the Commander reminded us of the kind of vehicle we'd like to get into on a cold, windy day. There is a tangible sheltering quality that immediately appealed to us.
For a seven-passenger SUV, the Commander feels remarkably nimble and responsive around town. Steering, a rack-and-pinion design, feels more precise than the truck-based SUVs we'd been driving. Driving in the morning rush, our immediate preoccupation was to follow our route maps to leave the city, but we found ourselves in heavy traffic, dicing with morning commuters and local drivers. We noticed the Commander, like the Grand Cherokee, is just a little quicker, better balanced, and a little more conducive to aggressive driving than the average SUV. Throttle response around town is gratifyingly direct, which we later discovered is due to the fact that the automatic transmission is a multi-speed design, that effectively supplies two second gear ratios. Punching the throttle signaled the automatic to kick down into the lower ratio to supply greater acceleration. Otherwise, a taller ratio with a smoother upshift would be used. The effect is an energetic surge when you call for it, and a sense that you can control the transmission with your right foot.
On the highway, the Commander is a notably smooth and comfortable cruiser. Jeeps are not the most aerodynamic vehicles in the world, but wind and tire noise seemed unremarkable, well within the range of the average SUV and something less than bigger, square-bodied truck-based 4x4s. It was easy to maintain a conversation using normal tones of voice throughout the drive, and easy to imagine this would be a fine vehicle for crosscountry touring.
We found the 4.7-liter V8 to be more than adequate for routine around town and highway driving, leaving us to consider the 5.7-liter Hemi as a requirement only for those who plan to tow, since it can handle up to 7200 pounds. The standard V6, which we did not drive, is EPA rated to deliver 17 mpg City and 21 Highway, compared to 15/20 for the 4.7 V8. In terms of horsepower, the two engines are not that far apart either, but the 4.7 appears to be the superior power plant when it comes to torque. If we were planning on operating our Commander fully loaded, on longer trips, and across bigger highways, we would prefer the 4.7-liter V8 over the V6 because the extra torque would be appreciated and the mileage is not much worse.
We were headed for the Pocono area for an obvious reason: This is a Jeep, and Jeeps are supposed to offer proven off-highway capability. The Jeep team had set up a series of trails near the Big Boulder Mountain, up grassy ski slopes, into the forest, and through mucky, rocky sections of trail. We're accustomed to trail driving, but the course did get our attention, requiring us to use low range and drive accordingly. The Commander, with the advanced Quadra Drive II system and a 2.73:1 low-range gear, is not limited in terms of traction, and has the quicker steering that makes it more maneuverable in tight quarters.
The tires, an all-terrain tread, proved their worth as traction devices and suspension components, helping to soak up the lumps from rocks and logs, and maintaining a grip clearly enhanced by the electronic traction control built into the Commander. Ground clearance is sufficient.
The Commander should be attractive to young families who have a need for four-wheel-drive capability, whether it be on vacations, weekend camping, or challenging winters. The seven-passenger capability is a useful upgrade that does not compromise overall utility, since the interior seats fold flat. With a wide range of engines, options and prices, the Commander would seem versatile enough to appeal to a broad array of buyers.
New Car Test Drive correspondent John Stewart filed this report from the Pocono Mountains.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Bulldogs are set to travel to Cambridge, Mass., this Saturday for their much-anticipated annual rivalry matchup against Harvard. This year will be the 122nd rendition of the meet in a tradition that dates back to 1891. Before falling to the Crimson last year, the Elis were riding eight consecutive victories from 2003 – 2010, and they hope to start a new winning streak this weekend.
On paper, it figures to be a tightly contested competition between the two sides. Yale will be led by senior captain Matthew Bieszard, the clear favorite in the 400-meter run. His best time this year (48.54) is more than a second faster than that of Harvard senior John Dingus. Bieszard will also compete as a member of the 4x100-meter relay team and with the All-East 4x400-meter relay team. The latter has a clear edge over its Crimson counterpart, but the former promises to be an exciting contest as the teams have run nearly identical times this season (42.78 for Yale and 42.86 for Harvard).
The Elis will look to sophomore Daniel Jones in the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Jones is the lone Bulldog to have broken 11 seconds in the 100-meter dash this season (10.97), and he will face off against three Harvard runners who have done so.
Yale's middle distance runners have tended to focus on the 1500-meter run rather than the 800-meter run this season, and that emphasis shows in their relative times. The Bulldogs have a pronounced advantage in the longer race with four runners (juniors Timothy Hillas and Sam Kirtner and freshmen John McGowan and Jacob Sandry) holding faster times than Harvard's top miler. Harvard does have a number of strong 800-meter runners, but Yale senior Charlie Jaeger and the rest of the middle distance cohort still have the potential to score in the event.
Based on their times from last week's Sam Howell Invitational, juniors Kevin Lunn (30:53.35) and Matthew Thwaites (31:02.14) are strongly favored in the 10,000-meter run. The fastest Harvard runner at the same meet finished in 31:28.95. Likewise, junior Nathan Richards, a winner at this meet last year, should have little trouble repeating his victory in the 3000-meter steeplechase. Only one Eli, freshman Michele Gama Sosa, has run the 5000-meter run outdoors this year.
Freshmen Daniel Kemp and William Rowe will represent the Bulldogs in the 110-meter high hurdles and 400-meter intermediate hurdles, respectively.
Junior Mike Levine will look to avenge his loss in this meet last year to Harvard's Edward Rucker in the discus throw. Levine enters the meet with the best mark in the field this year (50.79m). He also has the second-furthest hammer throw mark among all competitors (56.55m).
Similarly, sophomore Dana Lindberg has outperformed his Harvard counterparts to date in the long jump, with a personal best of 7.05m. Sophomore Paul Chandler will face stiff competition from the Crimson in the pole vault, but undoubtedly has the potential to reach the podium.
The meet is scheduled to begin on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. Full results will be available afterwards on www.yalebulldogs.com.

Lunch and Learns
It takes more than brilliant solutions to be successful in business. Standing out from the rest depends on how well you communicate, collaborate, and motivate people. These skills are critical to a lifetime of strong business relationships and career advancement.
Chicago Booth understands the importance of leadership training. We developed one of the first experiential leadership programs for full-time students at a major business school in 1989 under the guidance of Harry Davis, Roger L. and Rachel M. Goetz Distinguished Professor of Creative Management. After two decades of successful programming, Booth launched the Effective Leadership program (now titled Leadership Development) in the summer of 2009, tailored for the Evening and Weekend Booth MBA students. The program is built on a few guiding principles:
Chicago Booth's Leadership Development Office offers a variety of leadership growth opportunities, including the required curriculum component called LEAD (completed in your first quarter), and several optional electives that can be taken at any point during your Booth career.
The Leadership Development Office for Part-time MBA Programs at Chicago Booth is designed to complement Evening MBA and Weekend MBA students' demanding work and academic schedules. Taught by experts in the leadership development field and professional business consultants, the curriculum builds self-awareness while also offering practical tools and experiences that students can apply in the classroom and at work.
Leadership Exploration and Development (LEAD)
Your leadership journey starts with LAUNCH - a three-day program that kicks off your Booth experience and help you build connections from day one. The LEAD course is designed to enhance students' self-awareness and interpersonal effectiveness by providing them with an opportunity to benchmark themselves with respect to critical aspects of leadership – working in teams, influencing others, conflict management, presentation skills, etc. The course also helps students create a personalized plan to guide their continued development at Booth and beyond.
"The Communication and Collaboration portion of LAUNCH was very useful as it helped me to not only analyze my interpersonal tendencies but also build friendships and relationships with my classmates." Incoming evening student, Autumn '12
Students complete most of their LEAD requirements at LAUNCH. Toward the end of your first quarter, students attend a single session ReLAUNCH. At ReLAUNCH students learn more about themselves as experienced by others through a feedback process. This feedback and the insights gained enable students to complete a leadership development plan.
Leadership Development Electives/Workshops
Students have opportunities to continue their leadership development by attending one of the various electives offered by the Leadership Development Office. A few examples are below.
Courses on Leadership
Our leadership perspectives are woven into the Booth curriculum. Chicago Booth faculty know what it takes to succeed in business and they incorporate practical applications into their courses to make students better leaders. Some example courses are below.

A student who is disqualified as a result of a background check will not be allowed to enter the program major. A student must receive a "Background Study Clearance" within 90 days preceding the start of clinical or fieldwork courses to be placed at a partnering facility. Any student failing to receive clearance will be disqualified from enrollment in the course. Arrests, charges or convictions of criminal offenses may cause a student to fail a background study. If a student is disqualified, the student has the right to request reconsideration of the disqualification. It is the responsibility of the student to request consideration by the Minnesota Department of Health Commissioner if he or she chooses to do so. An applicant is considered to be disqualified while in the reconsideration process.

The current do-nothing, argue-over-everything Congress managed to do something right before adjourning last Friday, by -- surprise, surprise -- doing nothing.
Congress failed to extend a 30-year tax subsidy for corn-based ethanol that cost taxpayers $6 billion annually and ended a tariff on imported Brazilian ethanol.
Ending that egregious subsidy was the right thing to do on so many fronts that it's hard to enumerate them all. Here are a few reasons to praise Congress' action/inaction:
- It saves $6 billion a year. That's a pittance compared with the savings from ending the war in Iraq, which had the added benefit of saving American lives. But even in Washington, at least outside the Pentagon, $6 billion is real money.
- Supporters of corn-based ethanol claimed it was an interim step on the way to cellulosic ethanol, which would use leftover wood chips, corn stalks (rather than kernels) and other waste products to create ethanol. But after 30 years, that's a lame argument.
- It's not like the subsidy is a critical price support that is keeping family farmers from going bankrupt and losing their land. Growing demand from China has boosted crop prices. The subsidy was icing on the cake, pushing corn prices just that much higher.

And let me be even clearer. Military force is now not nearly as hard a form of power as what my critics imply; and global economic power, reinforced by institutions of personal liberty, is not nearly as soft. Because of unprecedented changes in the ways we create wealth in our age of burgeoning global networks, the power of economic sanctions by advanced democracies, acting in common, is a far greater force than the power of any military--though sanctions are not as photogenic as bombs when feeding the 24/7 cycle.
Consider this: When President Putin moved troops into the Crimea, Russian forces also massed along the Eastern Ukraine. Under my leadership, the US and its European allies responded, strong and united, with preliminary sanctions. The fate of the Ukraine is still uncertain, and the America and its allies are vigilant. But a month later, Russian the troops have been withdrawn and President Putin is making clear that he wants to settle matters diplomatically, which we welcome. Secretary Kerry, for his part, said at the time of Russia's action that Mr. Putin was employing 19th. century methods of power in a 21st. century world. Secretary Kerry was mocked for this by some. But the sanctions are clearly working. What did Secretary Kerry mean? Why, in the 21st. century, do such things as economic sanctions act as such a powerful deterrent?
Let me put things simply. The United States and Western democracies together are a zone of free enterprise with a combined GDP of approximately $32 trillion. Add Japan, our close ally, and we are $38 trillion. Add China, whose interests do not always accord with ours, but whose financial institutions and domestic corporations are fully integrated with ours, and we are at $46 trillion. This zone is not without inequalities and crises, which we will have to mitigate. But we know how to create unprecedented wealth. In 1975, a television cost the average worker about 60 hours of work. Today, about 6 hours of work--and the TV today can stream YouTube, and virtually everything ever thought said and done, for the cost of a wireless connection.
But that is not all. The companies that produce our wealth are vastly changed from what they were just two generations ago. In 1975, the tangible assets--the cash, buildings, raw materials, and so forth--of the Standard & Poors 500 largest corporations constituted about 80% of their market value, while the intangible assets--the collective know-how--were about 20% of value. Today, those proportions are reversed. Intangible assets, the knowledge, are 82% of what produces wealth and tangible assets, the stuff, is 18%.
This knowledge knows no borders. Nor can knowledge know boundaries. That's because, unlike money and other assets, the person who gives you knowledge still has it. Our companies create wealth and advance continually because they are largely integrated in shared networks, which are more and more valuable for all--the more that skilled, ambitious entrepreneurs and scientists join them. Cut yourself off from these global networks, or fail to access them, or just make yourself distrusted in them, and you condemn your people to poverty. It is just this world the people in the streets of Kiev have been determined to join.
Now let's look at Russia's economy. Out of its $2 trillion GDP about $1.2 trillion is oil and gas--mostly companies that are 80% stuff. Mr. Putin can dare to use the Russian military to expand and defend oil and gas deposits, as it did in the Crimea. That's what armies have been good for since ancient times, to secure the geographic boundaries around a tribe's or a nation's control of its stuff: so that their laborers can farm, and mine, and drill, and assemble in peace. That's why in the 19th. century, and even up to the middle of the 20th., kings and tyrants thought they could enrich their nation by making imperial war--after all, a huge, organized form of theft.
But war in the 21st. century is a little like one power station in a grid making war against another power station in the same grid: you resort to violence and threaten to bring down the whole network upon which your welfare depends. Mr. Putin may have thought that moving onto the Crimea secured him a better reserve of oil and gas and a better way of exporting it. Perhaps it did in the short term; perhaps the people who profit from oil and gas are satisfied with his action.
But what about the people not directly enjoying profit from drilled stuff. What about the much larger number of Russians who, like the protesters in Ukraine, want to join global wealth-creating networks and will now see foreign companies pull back and foreign investment drop off. During the crisis, the Russian stock exchange immediately dropped over 10%, a loss of more wealth than the cost of the Sochi Olympics. Curious, is it not? that what seems an expansion of Russian power caused even domestic investors to short the Russian economy.
In short, we have to redefine what we mean by international power. Getting expelled from the global system is hard power; military power is, in addition to being tragic, comparatively soft. It gets you nowhere. It is destructive. It leads you to places you cannot foresee. Writers about foreign affairs who have not digested the new realities can scare us with absurd scenarios, like this particularly hysterical writer in a recent issue of The New Republic:
"Could the United States survive if Syria remains under the control of Assad or, more likely, disintegrates into a chaos of territories, some of which will be controlled by jihadi terrorists? Could it survive if Iran acquires a nuclear weapon, and if in turn Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt acquire nuclear weapons? Or if North Korea launches a war on the South? Could it survive in a world where China dominates much of East Asia, or where China and Japan resume their old conflict? Could it survive in a world where Russia dominates Eastern Europe, including not only Ukraine but the Baltic states and perhaps even Poland?"
The implication is that, somehow, American military power could have neatly toppled Assad, or that Iran is not itself looking to join the world, or that North Korea could act with impunity. But notice also the silliness of speaking in this context of Chinese "domination" of the Far East and the reversion to conflict with Japan, as if the Chinese are some kind of huge island, and not dependent on the global system. And the idea that a second-rate power like Russia could dominate Eastern Europe and Poland, members of NATO, and racing ahead of Russia in terms of development--well, this kind of talk is beyond silly.
Which brings me to a final point about military force--why I prefer to organize international diplomatic responses to common acts of aggression. Some, like this writer, will interpret my strategy of patient sanctions as opting for appeasement rather than timely preemption. Demagogues always say this kind of thing. In his History of The Peloponnesian War, Thucydides noticed how certain people "altered words to suit their deeds." "A moderate attitude," he writes, "was deemed a mere shield for lack of virility, and a reasoned understanding with regard to all sides of an issue meant that one was indolent and of no use for anything."
My critics often mock my foreign policy in just this way. Given America's military superiority, they say, virtually any global problem is presumably the result of my failure to deter evil: the Syrian civil war, Iran's nuclear program, frictions in the South China Sea, Egypt's military coup, Russia's annexation of the Crimea. If only, critics say, I were more credible in my willingness to use force. Which means actually using or threatening military force in virtually every case, if only to prove my willingness to use it.
Thucydides adds, "One who displayed violent anger was considered eternally faithful." Now as then, passion can be mistaken for courage and determination. Now as then, blaming leaders for not being intimidating enough is a nice career move.

text: Don Carlos Buell (1818-1898) was a U.S. military officer who served as a Union major general during the Civil War (1861-65). A veteran of the Mexican-American War (1846-48), Buell entered the Civil War in 1861 and was instrumental in training the famed Army of the Potomac. As commander of the Army of the Ohio, Buell played a key role in the Union victory at the bloody Battle of Shiloh in April 1862. Later that year Buell moved his army into Kentucky to confront Confederate forces under the command of Generals Braxton Bragg and Edmund Kirby Smith. After occupying Louisville, Buell succeeded in halting Bragg's advance at the inconclusive Battle of Perryville in October. Buell was criticized for his sluggish pursuit of Bragg's retreating forces, and he was subsequently replaced by General William S. Rosecrans in October 1862. After the Civil War Buell worked as president of an iron company and as a pension agent. He died in 1898 at the age of 80.

Washington Leads Wyoming Past Nevada Men's Basketball, 68-48
LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) -- Leonard Washington's 16 points, 12 rebounds, five steals and three blocks spurred Wyoming to a 68-48 win over Nevada on Wednesday night.
Derrious Gilmore added 15 points and Josh Adams had 12 for the Cowboys (17-7, 3-7 Mountain West), who snapped a five-game conference losing streak.
Deonte Burton scored 13 while Malik Story had 11 and Kevin Panzer 10 for Nevada (12-12, 3-7).
Riley Grabau and Gilmore each drained 3-pointers to start the second half, which put the Cowboys up 35-19. Washington's long jumper pushed the margin to 43-25 with 14:52 remaining and his dunk on a fast break made it 65-42, the widest margin, with 3:33 left.
Nevada had drawn within 47-36 after Burton stole the ball and made a floater. But Adams sparked a 9-0 spurt with two fast-break layup attempts that resulted in four free throws and he also sank a 3 to give Wyoming a 56-36 advantage.

This is sad. I mean, just look at these cakes. Not one of them came out of the pan smoothly. The real sad part is this is one of the best tasting pound cakes I have ever made. I LOVE this recipe! It's from one of my very all time favorite cake books:
I've had nothing but luck with that book. Southern Cakes makes their brown sugar poundcake recipe in a traditional bundt pan, but I prefer to make my pound cakes in little loaf pans. I usually end up giving 75% of my cake away so mini loaves are just so easy to wrap up for gifts. Plus they slice so nicely. I've made many pound cakes before but this is my first brown sugar pound cake. I wasn't quite sure what to expect as far as taste and texture. Well, the flavor ended up being such an intense caramel flavor. It's just an unbelievable difference that the brown sugar makes compared to granulated sugar. The texture was very surprisingly soft & fluffy. I thought it would be dense and heavy. Not at all! I'm so in awe of the flavor of this! I originally planned on drizzling it with a caramel glaze after it cooled but since it turned out so shabby and just plain horrible looking, I didn't waste my time or ingredients. All the cakes in these photos are the ones that came out of the pan. There were 2 other loaves that totally came apart when I tried to remove them from their pans. My loaf pans are non stick, I sprayed with Pam AND I lined the bottom with a parchment strip which is what I always do with quick breads or cakes that I make in these pans. I didn't let the cakes sit too long after removing from the oven because I noticed the sides were fairly caramelized near the edges of the pan and were becoming quite crispy and really sticking to the edges. I had to run a very sharp knife along the edges and I thought that would result in a smooth removal. Not so. I've never had a cake stick so horribly. It's just a shame because this cake is so damn good. I hope someone else could try this recipe and have a better presentation. Let me know. Next time I bake this cake, I might skip the Pam spray and actually grease the pans with Crisco & flour. Any other suggestions? But please know, as shabby as these little loaves look, they are so delightfully delicious! Just plain scrumptious!
Brown Sugar Pound Cake
From Southern Cakes by Nancie McDermott
3 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup milk (whole)
1 ½ cups (3 sticks) butter, softened (unsalted, European)
One 1-pound box (about 2 ¾ cup) dark or light brown sugar
½ cup sugar
5 eggs (room temperature)
HEAT THE OVEN to 325 F. Grease and flour a 10 inch tube or bundt pan. (I used 7 mini loaf pans)
COMBINE the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and stir with a fork to mix well. Stir the vanilla into the milk and set aside.
IN A LARGE BOWL, beat the butter with a mixer at high speed until light and fluffy (about three minutes). Add the brown sugar in 3 batches, and then add all of the white sugar, beating well after each addition.
ADD THE EGGS, one by one, beating well after each addition. Add half the flour, and then half the milk, beating at low speed only until the flour or milk disappears into the batter. Add in the rest of the flour, and then the remaining milk, in the same way.
QUICKLY SCRAPE THE BATTER into the prepared pan and bake at 325 F for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until the cake is nicely browned at the edges, springs back when touched lightly at the center, and a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
COOL THE CAKE in the pan on a wire rack or a folded kitchen towel for 20 to 30 minutes. Loosen the cake from the pan with a table knife, and turn it out onto the wire rack or a plate to cool completely, top side up.
