During this time of uncertainty the group and myself wanted to try to keep something consistent and to spread some good news. We know that the news we are hearing now isn't always good or positive. So I reached out to the group members and they were all on board to work on their own time and write articles. The group members select- ed their topics, and write their articles as a coping technique to help them through this time. Staff then talked with them and typed it up for them. We really hope that you enjoy the information and that it helps you in some way during this time. My group members are so dedicated to what they do, it brings such joy to me and my heart.

Stress brought on by the chaos and change as we learn how to adapt; with the compliance that the government has imposed on us all. Though stressed out we can all do ourselves a favor and remain calm. “We’re all in this together”; with that in mind the mass hysteria and the greedy of ill informed that has become part of the problem instead of the solution. Keeping that in mind I find my faith helps me to be strong in my troubled waters. Turning to the light or as others might know it your higher power or in my instance; God. I have found that being there for each other; even though we need to communicate over the phone or keeping distance that this is not the end; this too will pass. Let us all come together as best we can and in understanding of the unconditional love that is there for all of us to receive as well as give. We can be the light and brighten up someone’s day with kind- ness of words and actions for both the person giving and receiving benefit and positive energy will rein over them and blessings from God. I know this from my own experiences; as I keep my faith in God be well people of God and blessed knowing that he is not forsaken. Peace and blessings D’niceman P.S. inspired by Bon Jovi: Living on a Prayer, and Journey: Don’t Stop Believing and Faithfully.

Miracle on Ice Hey sports fans this is MG and I would like to tell you a little about something that happened 40 years ago, at the 13th Winter Olympics in Lake Placid New York; the miracle on ice hockey game. But before we can go there I want to give a little back story about America at this time, imagine 1978, we were 5 years out of Vietnam, the steel mills were shut- ting down, the recession was on and there were high unemployment rates. Then in 1979 there was the Iran hostage crisis, and don’t forget the cold war was still giving the American’s a chill from Russia, just im- agine the slow, low pulse of the American spirit. “Great moments are born from great opportunities, and that’s what you have here tonight boys, that’s what you’ve earned here tonight, one game, if we played them 10 times, they might win 9, but not this game, not tonight.” The USA hockey team, comprised of just college kids with no experience in high scale hockey play at all, especially going into the Olympics. The Russians whom we were facing in this game were an expe- rienced hockey team, they were seasoned veterans, they had no jobs, there job was to play hockey in the Olympics. They were the Gods, and heavily favorited too. Then the improbable happened, the kids from the USA beat the giants from Russia, 4 to 3, what should have been the Russians ticket into the Gold medal round was now taken from them. As uttered by legendary sports caster Al Michael’s “11 seconds, you’ve got 10 seconds, the count down going on right now, Morrow up to Silk, 5 seconds left in the game, do you believe in Miracles?” I wanted to give something that would pop or dazzle, give inspiration, light and hope in a time where our lights might not be shining as bright as usual. I saw this poster in my garage and just knew this was the story. I hope that this articles helps lift you up and brings a smile to your day and touches your spirits as it does mine. Effected by the Quarantine It started March 17th 2020, life was going to be different in a whole new way and like everyone else I wasn't sure I was going to like it. My emotions were all over the place my thoughts were scattered. I wasn't sure how things were gonna be half the world was panic buying, nearly everything in the stores were gone, the stores and warehouses couldn't keep up with product. When we would go to the store we couldn't find anything we needed along with anything we wanted. Slowly as time went on the AA meetings I was attending were cancel- ling, stores were closing and doctors offices were closing. EVERY- WHERE was turning into a ghost town. We are being told to stay in- side our home, wash our hands, use hand sanitizer, take extra prop- er precautions. And if that isn't enough people are sick or dying. Be- ing quarantined and locked in our home hasn't been fun at all being away from all my family, my work family, my AA family and all my friends has been one of the worst situations I have dealt with. Not working is a financial strain and stressful, I am lost angry at times and scared. Scared that this virus may never let go scared that this world will stay the way it is scared that my loved ones will get sick or worse. I’m a mess mentally and emotionally, I keep in contact with friends and loved ones, my support groups. Though I do keep faith that I will return to work, social interactions, meeting and being with my friends, ones day again.

  • Thermal Behavior Characterization of a Sugar-Based Model System and Commercial Confections Across the Stages of Sugar Cooking
    THERMAL BEHAVIOR CHARACTERIZATION OF A SUGAR-BASED MODEL SYSTEM AND COMMERCIAL CONFECTIONS ACROSS THE STAGES OF SUGAR COOKING BY MELISSA WANG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition with a concentration in Food Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Professor Shelly J. Schmidt Abstract The stages of sugar cooking, although long-existing and widespread in the confection industry, are lacking in thermal behavior profile descriptions, which are crucial to confection functionality. Thermal behavior parameters, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg), are indicative of confection material structure and textural behavior. Tg plays an important role in governing the quality and shelf life of sugar-based confection, and is influenced by moisture content, formulation, and other factors. This study aimed to connect thermal behavior parameters to the stages of sugar cooking. Thus, the objective of this research was to investigate the thermal behavior of the six stages of sugar cooking, as well as representative commercial confections from each stage. A model sugar-based confectionery system was developed and representative commercial confections belonging to each stage of sugar cooking were selected. The model system consisted of a 70:30 ratio of sucrose to corn syrup and a 70:30 ratio of solids to moisture. To investigate the thermal behavior of the stages of sugar cooking, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), moisture content, and water activity analyses were conducted for the model system and representative commercial confections. The average Tg midpoint of the model system increased from thread to hard crack stage, corresponding to loss of water from increased cooking time and temperature.

  • Americans Celebrate with Food, Whether New Year's Eve, the 4Th Of
    Corn-Pork-Beef-Wheat Evening Presentation Iowa State University Ames, Iowa Americans celebrate with food, whether New Year’s eve, the 4th of July, Thanksgiving, or a host of local or regional, secular and religious festivities. American food has evolved and diversified through the centuries, from the simple, sustaining dishes of Colonial times to the complex food combinations that characterize the new millennium. Behind each food lies a history of use at different times at different geographical regions of America. Today, my objective is to briefly explore four of these foods: corn and pork; beef and wheat. And I begin with corn. Some call it maize, others call it corn. Regardless of name it is the same food, Zea mais. The word maize comes from the Taino language, spoken by the Arawaks, a Caribbean Native American nation, who greeted Columbus in 1492. The word maize subsequently transferred to Spanish, and entered other European languages as well. The alternative word, corn, originally spelled corne, is an Old English generic term for grain, whose meaning subsequently shifted to designate wheat. American-style English, however, continues to use the word corn in the sense of maize, usage that has continued into the 21st century. Maize was domesticated and first cultivated in the central valley of Mexico, perhaps 6,000 years ago, and ultimately became the primary dietary staple throughout Mesoamerica. Cultural exchange and trade gradually brought maize and other Mesoamerican crops northward into the geographical region now defined by the United States, where the grain was adopted in the semi- arid lands of the American southwest about 1,000 years ago, and about 800 years ago in the eastern seaboard region of North America.

  • They Are There for the Taking. Well, You Have to Pay for Them. Those Lovely Bags of Sweet Corn, Made with Sugar (Sometimes Honey) Can Go Anywhere with You
    They are there for the taking. Well, you have to pay for them. Those lovely bags of sweet corn, made with sugar (sometimes honey) can go anywhere with you. Sharing a taste is up to the quilter. Candy corn is in season. Most quilters do not have to ask permission to purchase these succulent triangles of flavor. We can hide them from our conscience and plead guilty when we find them, open the colorful orange package and grab a handful of candy. Sweet, mouthwatering candy is energizing and sugar satisfying. There is no sharing when eaten with someone who does not like the taste of candy corn or the Fall mixture. Raise your hand if you do not like candy corn. I will find you. A sugar high can get a quilt top started and finished in a day. (Perhaps that is how Eleanor does it). You will find that you can even think of a dinner menu and fix it in between piecing block A to block B. Washing the kitchen floor is swift. Folding laundry is done with a flick of the wrist. Magic happens when you open a bag of candy corn. Imagine the fragrance. Imagine the feel of teeth biting down onto the two or three triangles of flavor. Imagine the taste. So, Boo To You this Halloween month. Stop imagining and head on down to the candy store. But, be prepared. Each and every bag of packaged candy will taunt you to purchase them. “Take me, take me,” they chant. “Over here, Hey you, over here,” comes a holler from the next aisle.

  • 65% of American Candy Bars Were Introduced More Than 50 Years Ago
    65% Of American Candy Bars Were Introduced More Than 50 Years Ago On November 4th we celebrate the sweet holiday, National Candy Day. Candies have a long history of attracting us with their bright colors and delightful flavors. They also come in a variety of fun sizes and shapes. In the late 13th century, Middle English first began using the word candy. Borrowed from the Old French cucre candi, it is derived in turn from Persian Qand and Qandi, cane sugar. Sugar wasn’t always readily available, so the first candies were made from honey. Candy makers coated coat fruits and flowers with honey. This method preserved the flowers and nuts or created forms of candy. Originally a form of medicine, candy calmed the digestive system or cooled a sore throat. At that time, combined with spices and sugar, candy only appeared in the purses and the dishes of the wealthy. By the 18th century, the first candy likely came to America from Britain and France. At the time, people made the simplest form of candy from crystallized sugar – rock candy. However, even the most basic form of sugar was considered a luxury and was only attainable by the wealthy. Since 1979, the world has produced more sugar than can be sold, making it very attainable and cheap. By the 1830s, markets opened and the candy business underwent a drastic change. Not only did the price of candy drop, but penny candies targeted children. 1847 – Invention of the candy press making it possible to produce multiple shapes and sizes of candy at one time.
