To use another overblown metaphor, clubs are also the essential fabric out of which the rich, variegated tapestry of the game’s history has been woven.

  • Manufacturing Technology of Ready-To-Eat Cereals
    This chapter is taken from the book Breakfast Cereals and How They Are Made, Second Edition which is available in print and online from AACC International PRESS. Chapter 2 Manufacturing Technology ofReady-to-Eat Cereals ROBERT B. FAST Ready-to-eat (RTE) breakfast cereals are processed grain formula­ tions suitable for human consumption without further cooking in the home. They are relatively shelf-stable, lightweight, and convenient to ship and store. They are made primarily from corn, wheat, oats, or rice, in about that order of the quantities produced, usually with added flavor and fortifying ingredients. Hot breakfast cereals, on the other hand, are made primarily from oats or wheat; those made from corn or rice are of minor importance, being produced in relatively small quantities. The original hot cereals required cooking in the home before they were ready for consumption, but now some varieties are preprocessed so that they are ready for consumption with the addition of either hot water or milk to the cereal in the bowl. RTE cereals originated in the United States in the latter part of the nineteenth century. At first developed and used as healthful vegetar­ ian foods in a clinical context, they soon caught on with the general population, and an entire industry was thereby spawned (Fast, 1999). Their processing typically involves first cooking the grain with flavor materials and sweeteners. Sometimes the more heat-stable nutri­ tional fortifying agents are added before cooking. Two general cooking methods are employed in the industry-direct steam injection into the grain mass in rotating batch vessels and continuous extrusion cook­ ing.

Jack Francis Daniel Fung Marianne Gillette Dennis Heldman Richard Lechowich Gilbert Leveille David Lineback Daryl Lund Laszlo P. Somogyi Special thanks to three 1FT members who wrote special articles about their acquaintences and experiences: Al Clausi John Powers Jack Francis Editing by 1FT Staff copywrite 2000 ood science is a somewhat odd amalgam of scientific disciplines, including basic sciences, "soft" science, culinary arts and its out• growths, chemistry, biology, economics, agronomics, microbiology, and engineering. There are others, but "food science" is the common theme that turns traditional foods into a variety of specialty products and makes them tasty, safe, available, and convenient. Food supply and security are sometimes prominent in the roster, and other disciplines take their place from time to time. It is rare that food science teaches something truly new-but the "devil is in the details," and food science takes knowledge to a supremely practical use. Between the early 1900s and the present, food science and its cousins have provided Americans with the safest food supply the world has ever known, as well as the most plentiful and the least expensive. The other developed countries of the world have also been provided with the same kind of food supply. The underdeveloped and developing countries of the world have an improving food situation, and the information gained during the long race toward food security for developing countries has been extremely helpful to developed countries as well.

  • Keilor Football Club 1908
    KEILOR FOOTBALL CLUB Established 1877 Keilor Football Club 1908 Original artwork by DJ Williams Limited edition prints available online at https://Djwilliamsart.etsy.com For enquiries, please email [email protected] The three men pictured here in this 1908 portrait are from left, Bernard McGarry, Alex Wardill and Arthur Cave. Little is currently known of Wardill except that like McGarry and Cave, he lived in Footscray and played his football with both Keilor and the Footscray junior team in the VJFL. McGarry played as a follower and his name often appears on lists of best players as part of an invaluable pairing with Cave in the ruck. A relationship between the two Footscray men was fostered when Cave married McGarry’s sister and it appears to have flowed onto the football field. When McGarry then settled in Keilor, a link with the football club was forever forged. Arthur Cave is clearly the most accomplished of the trio. He was born in Ballarat in 1880 and 22 years later was playing for Footscray in the VFA. After just one season in the senior competition he left to play for the Footscray juniors where he went on to become a mainstay at the club. Cave’s style of play was described as cool and confident. He played as a tall follower and was equally effective when placed forward. In 1905 his football future appeared under threat after a riveting machine he was working on malfunctioned and badly crushed his hand. Cave recovered fully over the summer months and mid- way through the 1906 season was chosen as captain of the combined VJFL team that took on a combined team from Ballarat.
