The most exciting Resident Evil game to hit the PC. Play along with a friend or with a computer controlled AI. Tons of weapons to upgrade, with loads of monsters to kill. The ultimate teamwork shooter game!
PC Games
It has been 13 years since Capcom has released Resident Evil, a game that would define an entirely new game genre dubbed as "survival horror." Resident Evil 5 is the latest in the franchise. Released on 2009, this game has expanded on the action heavy formula of Resident Evil 4 and was built to support multiplayer action.
10 years after Raccoon City has been destroyed, former Stars Alpha team member Chris Redfield is an agent. This organization aims to destroy Umbrella's creations which have fallen under the wrong hands of terrorists after its downfall. Chris then learns that Umbrella will make a big deal with the African nation, so he sets out to stop the transaction and also learn about a mysterious doomsday project known only as Uroboros. Chris is joined by Sheva, a Kijuju agent, and together they battle infected villagers, monsters and so forth.
Teamwork is vital to take down powerful enemies and bosses, as such Resident Evil 5 has taken the franchise up a notch by adding a second character. Each character can carry 9 items; your enemies will no longer wait for you as you rummage through your inventory so better organize properly.
Resident Evil is a visually stunning game, and the varied environments are greatly detailed. And if you have right mix of equipment, you can take advantage of Nvidia's 3D Vision technology to experience the game in 3D.

A U.S. grand jury has indicted two former JPMorgan Chase & Co (NYSE:JPM) traders at the center of the bank's "London Whale" scandal, court papers made public on Monday show.
Javier Martin-Artajo and Julien Grout were each charged with five criminal counts over their alleged roles in JPMorgan's chief investment office in trying to hide part of a $6.2 billion trading loss by mismarking the values of positions in a credit portfolio they managed.
Continue Reading Below
Both men were charged with securities fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy, making false filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and falsifying books and records.
The government wants the men to forfeit proceeds traceable to their alleged offenses, including compensation from the largest U.S. bank. The case was assigned to U.S. District Judge Lorna Schofield in Manhattan.
A lawyer for Martin-Artajo did not immediately respond to requests for comment. A lawyer for Grout had no comment. Julie Bolcer, a spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara in Manhattan, declined to comment. JPMorgan spokesman Brian Marchiony declined to comment.

Item # SHI0214Item # SHI0214
Shimano calls this a racing pedal, and it's easy to see why. The resin cage surrounding the clipless spedal is larger and grippier than the M545/M424 design. The clipless pedal inside the cage is based on the latest Shimano SPD MTB iteration. Making entry easy is the 12.5-degree angle at which the clipless pedal sticks up from the cage. The result is a pedal that's good at shedding muck and is easy to stand on as well as easy to get in to.

Reviews & Community
does anyone know when these will be back in stock?
I was told they would not be able to get these pedals again...
3rd Set of These
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I ride them until they break. Favorite pedal of all time. Usually get 1 - 2 seasons out of 'em.
Great intro to clipless pedals
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Bought these for my 12 year old kid. She had tired other clipless pedals but never felt confident. These are ideal - allow her to ride clipped or unclipped on the same ride. Coupled them with the SH56 cleats. I'd highly recommend them for an intro to clipless pedals
switching from flats
i ride up and down, occasional lift access and shuttle runs, and switching from flats was about as easy as i think it can get with these, I recommend the cleats that allow the 3 release methods (SH56 cleats). Going clipless will definitely take some getting used to but these have been great, easy to get in and out, durable pedals with no issues with debris or anything else. The hex on the outside makes installation easier (regular wrenches are too fat, so this allows you to install without a dedicated pedal removal wrench)
They Take a Beating and Keep Going
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These pedals have seen it all. Incredible abuse, hard powered down-strokes to rocks and roots...repeatedly. I have one year and 4,600 miles on these and they have been off the bike for just one lube and service at 3,600 miles and were looking good. I thought of servicing them sooner, but they really didn't need it when I did get around to it. They are snap to lube. Look up the tricks! Two Thumbs Up!
love them
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Put these on my bike and they fit and work awesome!!!
Keeps others from test riding your bike.
When I have flats on my bike I notice people will throw a leg over my bikes and take them for a pedal. With these pedals I have never experienced it. You can tell they want to but they stop short once they see them.
I wouldn't waste my money on the other shimano spd pedals with the cage around them. These things are the real deal. I have bashed the living shit out of them at Whistler. I have seen so many flat pedals get absolutely destroyed in the same brutal conditions and never once have I had a problem with these.
I have three pairs of them that are spread out across my DH bikes. I am the guy with the tool boxes and spare parts when we go anywhere and I notice at races and at Whistler that pedals take a beating. I have fixed and put back together so many different pedals, but I have never had any issues whatsoever with these pedals.
Be Careful Adjusting Clip In Tightness
Pedals work great and I have no problem with them. I personally do not like the adjustment mechanism on these pedals for clipping in and out. I know many riders who have stripped the hex screw as it is very small and now cannot readjust them. The hex screw should be larger and their should be a way to tell how tight or loose they are. I would not buy again do to the design of the clip in factor.
quick question
when im clipped in my shoes can twist for a cm or two and it feels pretty hairy coming into tech sections when im riding. does any one know how to fix that? thanks
Possibly tighten your shoes or adjust the pedal tension. some float is normal though and they usualy take about 15 degrees of turning to disengage.
Free Ride Dream
When I switch from a hard tail to a FreeRide bike, I wanted a pebble that I could use even if I was not clipped in. I hated when I would come out of my clipless pedal and then have nothing to peddle against until I got clipped back in. I use these with the Shimano SH-AM45 Shoes and I have nothing bad to say about the setup. Plastic cage may look cheap but it has help up to a major beating this season and I expect it will last many more.
happy so far
This is my first dual platform pedal, and I have been more than happy with them so far. I can clip in for a longer ride, or not while I head to the corner store and back.
Only pedal for downhill
These pedals rock! I didn't realize how much I disliked the mallet until I stepped into these babies! Easy in and easy out. Simply FANtastic.
Surprisingly Unpleased
I'm a commuter, weekend rider, and occasional competitor, and I use both my road and mountain bikes for all of these on a regular basis. I chose these pedals for their reported comfort with both cleated and flat shoes, and I chose the PD-A530 on my road bike for the same reason. I only have one pair of cycling shoes, so I wanted the same cleats on both, and all the pedals had to be comfortable with flats.
Although I love the PD-A530's, I'm really disappointed with the PD-M647. I forked up big money on these nice pedals for my new titanium XC hardtail, thinking they need to be good with flats and light weight to match the rest of the bike, so these are my only option by Shimano. As it turns out, they aren't really much more comfortable than normal cage-less SPDs, which makes me wonder if I should have even gone with these at all. Secondly, there's an obnoxious creeking sound coming on every pedal stroke, which drives me totally nuts (reported by another reviewer also), and although the cage hasn't cracked, some other plastic part on the spindle has cracked on both pedals. All these combined, I ask myself why I keep these every time I go on a ride. For a similar amount of comfort, I could have paid half the price and saved half the weight with a pair of Crank Bro's Candies or even Shimano cage-less pedals, and been far more satisfied with the end result.
I guess these pedals do have two things going for them: 1. If you miss the clip you have a bit of platform to pedal with until you get a chance to clip in. 2. They apparently make good, lightweight downhill pedals (but I don't downhill, so thats no help for me).
i commute and i lov'em! Feels good with or without the clip in.
Good for casual and intense
The description really says it all: "These pedals take on a DH race as easily as a day on singletrack, and theyll even give you the versatility to ride to the store without changing into bike shoes". I haven't really noticed anything wrong with these, which means they are doing a good job. The only thing that did go wrong is the left pedal made a loud annoying "clicking" noise with every cycle, and it was starting to drive me insane. After a couple rides, right before I was about to send them back, the clicking went away.
Good for starters...
I'm digging this pedal more and more. Not ready for clip'ins yet, but it works great as a normal, flat pedal. should be an easy transition to clip'ins in the future without having to buy new pedals.
I am riding Trek fuel EX 8, does these...
I am riding Trek fuel EX 8, does these PD-M647 SPD fits them?
Yes, pedals are pretty standard so they will fit your bike.
Super Durable
If you are a Shimano pedal fan and ride DH, these are the pedals to get. The cage is insanely durable and they are one of the lighter DH specific pedals out there.
For platform pedals..these rule
Sweet, lightweight platforms. Great for extra leverage. I enjoy platforms for overall comfort. Have used others..love these for the easy cleaning and lightweight comfy design. Solid pedals
What style of cleat do these come with? ...
What style of cleat do these come with? Multi-directional?
SPD cleats are multi-directional.

Dinner in a pumpkin
This dinner is a long time tradition in my family {maybe that's why I love it so much}. Not only is it cute, it's delicious as well. The recipe is simple, you'll need:
1 small to medium size pumpkin {mine is about 8 pounds}
1 lb. ground beef or turkey
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 package of fresh mushrooms, sliced {this time I actually used a combo of diced celery and shredded carrots in lieu of the mushrooms and it was really good this way - just use what you like}
2 T. brown sugar
2 T. soy sauce
2 cups cooked rice
Wash and dry your pumpkin and draw on a face using a sharpie. Clean out your pumpkin and microwave it on high for about 10 minutes (until the pumpkin is slightly soft). Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Meanwhile, saute your vegetables and brown the meat. Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, {mushrooms} and soup. Simmer 10 minutes, then add the rice. Put the mixture inside the pumpkin and place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for about an hour or until the pumpkin is tender.
Make sure you scrape the sides of the of that tender pumpkin - it's very complimentary to the rice mixture. Enjoy!

Each week, we'll ask our stable of scribes to weigh in on the three most important NBA topics of the day — and then give you a chance to step on the scale, too, in the comments below.
Week 16: All-time favorite Dunk Contest dunk? | On LeBron's hot streak … | Winning it all without a star
Can a team win it all nowadays without an MVP-type superstar?
Steve Aschburner: Don't want to say "can't" about a superstar-deficient roster surviving to win the NBA title but I do think it's a long shot. The ability to ride one (or better yet, two) hot hands and the role that free-throw opportunities can play in pivotal games — built off of star power, in many cases — are the things of which champions are made. It would be fascinating to a lot of hardcore pro hoops fans to see, say, a Nuggets-Pacers Finals, but it wouldn't thrill the marketing types or maybe even the folks in Olympic Tower. But I don't see them having to fret beyond the conference finals round.
Fran Blinebury: This is like the old kids' riddle about how many balls of string would it take to reach the moon? Just one, but it better be big. Of course, a team without a superstar can win it all. But it had better be talented, tough, unselfish and have enough players who could make all the big and little plays in the clutch. The stars have to be perfectly aligned to produce the 2004 Pistons again.
Jeff Caplan: OK, so the star-less Detroit Pistons won it all against the bickering, last-of-the-line Kobe–Shaq Lakers nearly a decade ago. The Chauncey Billups–Rip Hamilton–Tayshaun Prince–Rasheed-and-Ben Wallace Pistons remain the lone example, an exception to the rule. So, no, I don't believe a team without a bona fide superstar in today's NBA can win it all. We've seen that it's nearly impossible for a lone superstar to take his team to the top. Dirk Nowitzki finally managed that task with one of the great postseason runs of all-time in 2011. And let's be real, those Mavs caught a collapsing Lakers team with Phil Jackson having one foot out the door, a very young Thunder team just getting their feet under them and the Miami Super Friends in their first season together. I truly enjoy watching George Karl's squad run up and down the floor, but a team has got to have a go-to-guy who can create his own shot when the game turns into a halfcourt grindfest and when crunch-time demands an isolation takeover.
Scott Howard-Cooper: Possible, but it makes the odds much longer. The team does not have to have an MVP-type superstar, but it needs to have a player able to beat coverage to hit a pressure shot coming out of of a timeout in the final seconds. It also needs to have the player strike a fear in defenses, enough to create an opening for a teammate if Player X himself does not take the shot. That usually describes a superstar.
John Schuhmann: I think so. It would take great defense (like what we've seen from the star-less Pacers and Bulls) and an offense with shooting and ball movement (like the Spurs in Chicago on Monday). Of course, I don't think the Nuggets have what it takes. They're not good enough defensively, not good enough on the road, and not good enough from behind the 3-point line to thrive in at a slower, playoff-like pace.
Sekou Smith: It's only been done once in my time eyeballing the league, by the 2004 Detroit Pistons. And they did it with one of the most meticulously crafted rosters I can remember seeing that was didn't have a true MVP-type anchor (Chauncey Billups or Ben Wallace came close). I love the Nuggets and the way they are playing this season. The committee approach only goes so far in the NBA playoffs these days. Sooner or later you run into a team built around a superstar player (or players, in most instances).

The former owner of a popular Tallahassee restaurant and lounge has been arrested for failing to pay more than 100-thousand dollars in taxes.
Anthony Murgio is the former owner of 101 Restaurant and Tapas Lounge.
The Department of Revenue says Murgio failed to turn over more than 110-thousand dollars in sales tax he collected from customers.
Court documents say Murgio paid other creditors, but neglected to pay his sales tax.
Murgio was arrested on four felonies and has since been released on bond.
It is important to point out that 101 Restuarant is now under new ownership. Its new owner says Murgio's tax woes will not impact the restaurant in any way.
Florida Department of Revenue Press Release
January 22, 2012
Contact: Renee Watters
Anthony Murgio, the owner of Tapas Lounge, Inc., located in Tallahassee, Florida, has been arrested on charges that he stole more than $110,000 in sales tax he collected from customers, but failed to send in to the state, the Florida Department of Revenue announced today.
Mr. Murgio, 29, Tallahassee, was arrested by the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office on January 18, 2013 on felony charges relating to theft of state funds and refusal to file returns and pay taxes due. If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in prison and up to $10,000 in fines, as well as possible payment of penalty and investigative costs. Tapas Lounge is located at 215 W. College Avenue in Tallahassee.
According to Revenue Department investigators, Mr. Murgio collected tax from customers at his lounge. However, during various periods beginning in 2011, lasting through periods in 2012, he failed to send in to the state all of the sales taxes that were collected and failed to file tax returns as required by law.
"It is an honor to serve the vast majority of Florida businesses who comply with State tax requirements," said Marshall Stranburg, Interim Executive Director, Florida Department of Revenue. "For those that don't, it is our job to enforce the law and ensure honest businesses are not placed at a competitive disadvantage by those who ignore the law or intentionally collect and steal taxpayer dollars."
If you have information about tax crimes, please call the Florida Department of Revenue Investigations office in Tallahassee at 850- 487-0461.
Note: Due to the confidential nature of taxpayer records, generally the information found in this release is the only information available from the Department of Revenue concerning this matter. Other information may be available through the arresting agency and the local Clerk of Court.

This is a new act, a better act, a stronger act, and they want to introduce you to their new lineup and new sound. Frontman and self-proclaimed vampire Michael Vampire sat down and talked VERY candidly about where his band was, where they are now, what it means to be a vampire, why people are attracted to vampirism, and naturally, "The Lost Boys."

Anyone investing for yield income is about to get hammered with a one-two knockout punch. The first punch is/has been low interest rates and the second punch is higher looming taxes.
The chart below speaks to the first punch. It shows how the federal funds rate has drifted from 4% to near zero over the past four years, courtesy of the Federal Open Market Committee. The drop in the fund funds rate (the rate at which banks lend money to each other) has been particularly hard but not limited to fixed income investors in bonds (NYSEARCA:AGG), money market funds (Nasdaq:FFMXX), and bank deposit accounts.
Continue Reading Below
Although The Economist labels this income deficit problem as "the complex effects of low interest rates on consumption and investment," but there's nothing complex about it. No one at the Federal Reserve Bank represents the financial interests of individual investors and savers. And the hostile environment facing investors is about to get even more hostile because of higher tax rates.
Beginning January 1, 2013 - tax rates on qualified dividend income from stocks (NYSEARCA:DVY) will jump from 15% to a top tax rate of 39.6%. If you're in a top tax bracket, you'll pay an additional 3.8% surtax to fund Obamacare. And if we combine today's low rate environment with higher taxes on qualified dividend income - it's a one-two knockout punch.
Chasing DividendsWe've repeatedly warned our readers that buying higher yielding but riskier assets is dangerous. It's like remodeling a sinking ship to make the boat look more attractive. During the 2008-09 meltdown, investors in high yielding junk bonds (NYSEARCA:JNK) and mortgage REITs (NYSEARCA:REM) got clobbered between 23-43%.
This time around, we are witnessing repeat behavior. We've even observed many highly regarded investment professionals acting just like the amateurs: Chasing high yielding sectors like REITs (NYSEARCA:REM), junk bonds (NYSEARCA:HYD), etc. - pretending that risk doesn't exist. Don't they know any better?
Likewise, tax exempt municipal bonds (NYSEARCA:MUB) have been sold as the panacea to higher looming taxes, but there's no free lunch.
Credit risk has become a major factor for munibond investors (NYSEARCA:CMF) and major cities and municipalities from San Bernardino to Detroit are in dire straits. Strategic defaults are increasing. What about the possibility that municipal bond income could be taxed? (See "No Easy Money in Munis" by Jason Zweig.)
The only way for income investors to fight back is with a realistic plan that uses non-dividend income in conjunction with traditional sources to boost total returns. (As a side note, a major part of this also includes reducing onerous investment fees - as much as possible, which ETFs allow investors to do.)
The ETF Income Mix Portfolio we've assembled has been helping our readers to combat today's anti-income/anti-investor climate. Since early 2012, our monthly income trades have averaged $1,040 per month* in cash flow in addition to traditional income sources coming from dividends. (Based on a hypothetical $100,000 all ETF portfolio) The only way to avoid getting punched, is to succssfully dodge the blows. Income starved investors need to have a grown up view about their strategy. The Federal Reserve is not your friend. BernanQE & Co. has pledged to keep short-term interest rates at current levels until 2015. A proactive approach to higher income is the smarter road taken.

I am doing a very low carb diet for about 2 and a half weeks now, more towards the Rapid Fat Loss (quite low calories, and trying to hit protein and vitamins/minerals) rather than Keto. I am also doing intermittent fasting daily with varying windows (16-8, 18-6, 20-4).
When i started i had a 27.7 BMI which would put me at 22-23% bodyfat and thus Category 2, which means i can keep calories low for 2-6 weeks if i am not mistaken.
I have noticed that my appetite is VERY low and i have to force myself to eat oftentimes (my stomach feels acidic, i usually drink water).
I was wondering which of the above factors are the cause of this? Is it reduced stomach size cause of the intermittent fasting? Is it the fat adaptation due to the very low carbs in the diet (using the body stores more efficiently for energy thus not FEELING hunger)?
Would i not have this reduced appetite if my diet consisted of protein and carbs instead of protein and fats ? Should i listen to this hunger signal and keep doing it till the cravings/hunger starts to ramp up?
Thank you !
This isn't unusual and appetite/hunger is way too complex to put on any one thing.
Just be happy it's happening and be done with it. Most would kill to have a blunted appetite while dieting.
Previously, I stated that hunger is not blunted too much for me on keto, but I do notice that it does have some moderate effect. It depends on how long I have been on keto.
I just know that if I limit processed foods for a while I do better with satiety. In the end, it really does not matter. What matters is that you are achieving healthy results in a safe sustainable way.
My issue as a person who was formerly obese is that I have a lot of bad eating habits. I still struggle with it at times. I do believe that if you "force" yourself you're just supporting and enabling bad eating habits. I do not know your personal history or your situation. I just know the more often you do something the easier it is to do.
A quick note on keto, my issue with keto is the higher fat content. It has very little volume for a number of calories you need to achieve your goals. I rather do something closer inline with RFL.
To answer your question about comparing a ketosih diet to a higher carb diet. I would say that you probably would be hungrier on a higher carb diet. Protein is more satiating than carbohydrates.
ETA: When i said keto does not blunt my hunger too much, I was comparing low carb and keto. Comparing high carb and keto, I would definitely say lower carb/keto is much better for me in terms of satiety.

Agriculture was Florida's primary economic contribution to the war effort. The brochure, Save and Serve: Share the Meat for Victory, encourages farmers to grow, process and store their home meat supply.
With recipes for liver pudding and guidelines for how neighbors can form a "Farmer's Beef Club," farmers are encouraged to "aid the war effort, bring victory and write the peace."
Bulletin from the Agriculture Extension Service in Gainesville, Florida. (Series 419)
WFF No. 1
(Acts of May 8 and June 30, 1914)
Agricultural Extension Service, University of Florida
Florida State College for Women

Share the Meat for Victory
Despite its biggest production in history, America finds itself facing meat rationing—voluntary at first, perhaps compulsory later. Every citizen, including farmers who butcher and cure meat at home, is requested to adhere to the allowances set up in the country's share the meat program and limit his consumption so that others may have an equal amount.
Only strong people in the best state of nutrition will be able to win the peace and rebuild this war-torn world. In order that our fighting forces and those of our Allies may have sufficient meat, and that every American citizen may have nutritious meals, our Government requests everyone to share the meat and to limit his consumption.
The Ration.—2 ½ pounds per week for each adult. 1 ½ pounds per week for each child 6 to 12 years old. ¾ pound per week for each child under 6 years old.
This is about the same amount of meat the average person ate during the 10-year period 1931-1940. It applies to red meats only, and does not include fish, poultry, and animal organs such as liver, heart, tongue, sweetbreads.
Why Rationing is Needed.—Record production has not kept pace with record demand. America's 1942 meat production is estimated at 24 billion pounds. Our Army, Navy, and Lend-Lease require 6 ½ billion pounds of this, leaving 17 ½ billion pounds for civilian use. With more people employed than ever before, most of them enjoying high wages, the tremendous demand for meat has grown out of bounds.
Farmers have a threefold duty in connection with the current meat situation:
1. They must continue to produce as much beef and pork as they can. They must produce for our armed forces, for Lend-Lease, and for home consumption. By doing this they will aid the war effort, bring victory, and write the peace.
2. They must see that no meat is lost through spoilage or carelessness—no meat is lost for any reason—after it is produced.
3. They must limit meat consumption by members of their families to the average national allowance. Those families not now eating as much meat as the national allowance are not asked to reduce consumption still further.
Farmers who grow, process, and store their home meat supply are serving the war effort in several ways:
1. They are preserving the health of their families.
2. They are relieving the congested transportation facilities.
3. They are relieving labor at packing-houses.
4. They are relieving cold storage space at packing plants in favor of Lend-Lease and war meat.
5. They are, by permitting retail stores to care for the needs of town customers only, helping morale.
6. They enjoy definite independence, satisfaction, and a feeling of financial security when they have sufficient meat in the smoke house.
The farm meat supply calls for putting into practice the best known methods of killing, curing, cold storage, and canning of meats. This is not a time for experiment, but rather for the use of information in hand that has been proven correct. Farm families should be supplied with pork and beef for an adequate diet.
Medium fat young hogs weighing 150 to 225 pounds are most desirable for home dressed meats. They produce hams and shoulders weighing 8 to 12 pounds and loins and bacon weighing 7 to 12 pounds, and yield about 12 to 25 pounds of lard.
The economy of curing pork into savory hams, bacon, loins, and shoulders for home use is greatly facilitated by observing a few precautions.
Give hogs plenty of water but no feed 12 to 24 hours before killing. Never kill a hot hog. Stick hog without stunning or shooting it, for most satisfactory bleeding.
As soon as the hog is dead, scald at a temperature of 145 to 150 degrees. Clean, dress, pull out leaf fat, split the carcass down the center and get it to cold storage or a cold place as quickly as possible. If cold storage is not available, pack the warm meat in cracked ice. Warm, freshly slaughtered pork carcasses should be chilled to a temperature between 34 and 40 degrees within 24 hours.
Meat cured at a temperature about 38 degrees F. will develop a more uniform, desirable flavor than if the temperature goes too high.
For mild, dry cure, with each 100 pounds of trimmed meat use 8 pounds of salt, 2 pounds of sugar (or 2 pints of syrup) and 2 ounces of saltpeter. Mix these ingredients, rub each piece of meat separately on both sides, covering with the mixture. Pack the meat away with the skin side down, putting hams and shoulders on bottom, loins and bacon on top. The loins and bacon should not be covered as thickly with the curing mixture as the hams and shoulders. An 8 to 10-pound ham will cure in 25 to 30 days. Loins will cure in a few days less and bacon will cure in 20 days. When meat is cured, soak and scrub off the salt, hang in a cool, dry place to dry, then smoke with hardwood—oak, hickory, or pecan. The soaked pieces should be wrapped each piece in parchment paper then slipped into a muslin bag to protect from insects, and be hung in a cool, dry place.
During hog killing time, excess pork may be canned (see Extension Bulletin 87, Canning Meat).
Liver Pudding.—The liver, heart, kidney, tongue, head, feet, and skin can be used fresh or cooked, seasoned, and stuffed for future use as liver pudding.
Cook heads, kidneys, tongues, and hearts, skins and feet in sufficient water to cover all parts. Simmer until meat is well done and slips easily from the bone. Scald livers last and cook about 10 minutes in with other materials. Liver adds a definite flavor, and there should be 1 part liver to 4 parts of other meat.
Grind all these materials and add about one-fifth as much soup (broth), or enough to make the mixture soft but not sloppy. Season to taste and mix thoroughly. Many meat eaters like the following portions of seasoning: To each 100 pounds of liver pudding add 2 to 2 ½ pounds of salt, 2 to 4 ounces of black pepper, and sage to taste.
Thoroughly mix in the seasoning, stuff the mixture into large casings, and simmer in water 10 to 30 minutes or until the casing floats. Remove from hot water, plunge the stuffed casings in cold water, and chill for about 30 minutes. Hang up the casing to drain and store in cool place.
Rendering and Storing Lard.—The leaf fat, back fat and fat trimmings should be cut into small pieces or coarsely ground before cooking. The caul and ruffle fat from the offal yield dark lard and should be cooked separately from the leaf fat. Cook the fat slowly till cracklings begin to float. As the cooking proceeds the cracklings begin to sink to bottom, indicating that cooking is nearly complete. Take care that the cracklings do not scorch, but drive most of the moisture from the lard.
Place hot lard in clean containers, fill the vessels to the top and seal with tight cover. Store lard in a dark, cool place.
Fresh beef at minimum cost each week or every other week is possible through Farmer's Beef Club. Farmers living within reach of cold storage meat curing plants may take advantage of these facilities by storing their fresh beef.
A few neighbors ever so often can kill a beef and divide it among themselves with no outlay of cash. The club is usually composed of 8 to 16 families and operates usually 8 to 16 weeks. The period of operation is decided upon by the members.
One animal is killed each week or every other week by some member of the club and divided among the members. In the 8 member club, the beef carcass is divided into 8 parts, each member getting a certain part in such a manner that when the season closes, every family has received a whole beef.
Cutting the Carcass.—It is essential that the cutting and dividing of the carcass be simple. In an 8 member club the carcass is split down the center and divided into quarters as is usual in slaughtering beef. Each quarter is divided—the hind quarter on a line that removes the loin from the round without trimming the flank. The front quarter is cut between the third and fourth ribs. Following these directions will divide the carcass into 8 pieces with approximately equal weights.
Very little bookkeeping is necessary. The only records that need to be kept are the order in which each member should kill an animal, the weight of the animal the member kills, and the weight of the cuts each member gets.
Extra beef may be canned or cured for future use. See Experiment Station Bulletin 321 for curing beef and Extension Bulletin 51 for canning meat.

We all have bad work days, but for a majority of us, we feel disconnected from our place employment, which experts say is bad for both employers and employees.
Continue Reading Below
Nearly 70% of American workers report they were "actively disengaged" or "checked-out" at work from 2010 to 2012, which can lead to lower productivity, according to recent Gallup research. Thirty percent of respondents reported being "engaged, involved in, enthusiastic about and committed to the workplace," the highest level since the study began in 2000.
The survey breaks 100 million people in America working full-time into three categories—actively engaged (30 million), not engaged (50 million) and actively disengaged (20 million).
Disengagement among workers cost companies cash and can undermine goals and office morale with their negatives attitudes.
Roy Cohen, career counselor and author of The Wall Street Professional's Survival Guide says the workplace disengagement trend has been underway for the past five years, and that many workers are angry, upset and frustrated in the office.
He blames the bulk of these feelings on companies not making their workers feel valued.
"This will absolutely continue as organizations continue to convey to employees that you are only as valuable as your contributions right now," Cohen says. "If they think short-term, their employees will be disengaged."
The study also found that those with higher education levels reported more discontent within their workplace, and that millennials and boomers are more likely to be "actively disengaged" than other age categories.
"It's not smart to make a commitment to an individual who is not into you," says Cohen. "Why invest energy into a relationship that is not going to lead to something? Companies will disappoint us."
The increase in unhappy workers is a result of people not taking the proper amount of time to find their true calling in life, claims Darnell Clarke, author of Employmentology: A Practical Systematic Methodology of Finding Employment.
"I say chase your passion, not your pension," Clarke says. "By the time you get work, you may have gotten the wrong degree and wound up in the workforce doing something that's not your purpose."
Disengaged employees with not succeed in the workplace, he says. But reassures that it's never too late to find a true passion.
To combat this feeling, Cohen says workers should invest energy into developing their careers, not in particular companies. This makes workers more valuable in the marketplace, even if an employer doesn't recognize the added worth .
"Make yourself as passionate and as excited as you can," he says. "At the end of the day, companies make decisions based on bottom lines. I think you have to retain excitement for the work you do, wherever you may be."
