Fill It up Napkin and Dough M G (Safe- Oklahoma Harvest of sunshine Alison Morris Lifestyles Editor unflowers are not a typical crop growing in Western Oklahoma but Mark and Vonda Graf of Corn are on their second year of growing and harvesting sunflowers. S Graf said they plant the sunflowers around the first of May depending on soil temperatures and they are ready to harvest towards the end of August or beginning of September. When they are ready to harvest the flowers will be black and dry. Graf uses an ‘all crop head’ on his combine to harvest the flowers. He said the head sandwiches the flowers in-between a set of belts before cutting the flowers. This allows him to capture almost every flower head. Graf then stores the sunflowers in bins until he can deliver them to Jettco Seed in Binger to be processed. The sunflowers Graf plants are not the confectionary ones that are harvested for their seeds. His flowers are about half the size and are used for bird seed or crushing for sunflower oil. Graf said this is a relatively low maintenance crop. As long as they get plenty of rain they do well. “They look lovely, they are a good cash crop in comparison to wheat right now,” said Graf. “Right now they are at the peak of their beauty and have drawn lots of spectators.” WFRC plans can sculpture competition Roxane Paone Mark Graf, of Corn, said his sunflower fields are at the peak time for beauty.

  • Innovation Village – Stadium Authorization Tuesday, September 18, 2007
    Innovation Village – Stadium Authorization Tuesday, September 18, 2007 PROPOSED BOARD ACTION As the next step in developing the previously approved Innovation Village project, the Administration requests that the Board of Trustees adopt a resolution: a) conceptually approving and authorizing the development of an on‐campus steel‐frame football stadium for the Boca Raton campus, with a maximum design and construction cost of $62,000,000 and a projected capacity of up to 30,000 seats; b) authorizing the President to commence formal negotiations with appropriate financial institutions and design and construction professionals, including issuing University Requests for Proposals or Qualifications, as appropriate, to secure the most financially feasible development plan; and c) authorizing the President to take such further actions as are necessary and appropriate to achieve these ends, subject to the Board of Trustees final approval of all financing and construction plans. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Throughout 2006 and 2007, the Administration has developed plans to implement the BOT’s directive to enhance the traditional campus environment on the Boca Raton campus. The ultimate goal is to provide physical and programmatic resources that will support FAU’s efforts to become recognized as a university of first choice. As part of these efforts, the University selected through a Request for Proposal process a development team led by KUD International to create and implement a plan for the Boca Raton campus that would include student residential housing facilities, retail space to serve the university community, and a venue for athletics and cultural events. The RFP required that all financing for the project must be private, with no recourse to University funds.
