Food - Picking Fresh Corn
2008-04-28 15:59:00
Let's be honest. There is nothing in the summer time like a good hot dog, hamburger and some fresh corn on the cob. Unfortunately, with the large number of farms going out of business because of rising costs, it's hard to find a farm close by to get your fresh picked corn. Fortunately, supermarkets are aware of this and are all competing with each other to get the freshest corn possible. The question is, how can you tell if an ear of corn is fresh and how do you keep it fresh? The answers may surprise you unless you're experienced with this sort of thing. Hopefully though, by the time you're done reading this article, you'll know exactly how to pick a fresh ear of corn and how to keep it fresh once you get it home.For starters, the first thing you have to know is that corn does not stay fresh very long. So the first thing you want to do is make sure you don't buy your corn until the day you plan on cooking it. That way you are sure to have the freshest corn possible. Of course...

News: When Green Goes Commercial: Bio-Corn Fuels Gulf of Mexico's "Dead Zon
2008-04-26 13:00:00
"Dead zones" are areas in the world's oceans where marine life can not be supported due to depleted oxygen levels. Fish can flee potential suffocation by migrating to other areas, but they are often quickly rendered unconscious and die. Even if they survive studies show a decrease in size of reproductive organs causing low egg counts and lack of spawning. Slow moving bottom-dwelling creatures like clams, lobsters and oysters are unable to escape. All colonial animals are extinguished. (More)In other words: a "dead zone" is a vicious circle turning an ocean into a desert, incapable of supporting any marine life.The most notorious dead zone is a 22,126 square kilometer (8,543 square mile) region in the Gulf of Mexico, the size of the State of New Jersey. The area has about doubled in size since scientists began studying it in 1985, a good enough reason to be alarmed.One of the main causes of the Gulf's dead zone is the Mississippi River's dumping of high-nutrient runoff from the he...

ZapRoot interviews King Corn director Aaron Woolf
2008-04-16 20:04:00
I still haven't seen the documentary King Corn, which digs into all the ways that corn is used (and abused) in our society. Our friends over at ZapRoot, though, got a chance to sit down with Aaron Woolf, the film's director, for their latest episode. This brief video also a segment on those manmade Dubai islands and the 56 mpg Fiat 500 gets a few seconds of screen time as well. The movie clips from King Corn included in ZapRoot show how this movie focuses more on the food side of the corn equation (i.e., not so much the ethanol), but the movie does get into how complicated the America's agribusiness policy is. During the promotional work for the film, people associated with the movie did discuss ethanol's role in elevating the royal crop. Thanks to a link from the King Corn website, I just found out my local PBS station is showing the movie tonight and if I remember to watch or record it, I might have a review coming up. Check to see if it's playing near you.[Source: ZapRoot]

Japanese Food Maker Starts Buying Genetically Modified Corn
2008-04-16 10:59:00
Nihon Shokuhin Kako Co. Ltd., Japan's largest buyer of corn for use in food, is importing genetically modified supplies for the first time this year as high prices deter gene-pure purchases, a company executive said. The Tokyo-based company plans to process 250,000 metric tons of U.S. GMO corn in 2008, signaling a change in policy on corn procurement, Mikio Shoji, director at Nihon Shokuhin Kako, said in an interview. The company, a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Corp., is the biggest of 11 Japanese corn-starch makers and buys more than 750,000 tons of the grain annually. Food makers in Japan, the world's largest corn importer, pay a premium for non-modified supplies because of consumer concerns that GMO varieties may not be safe.   Corn prices have risen 56 percent in the past year and reached a record $6.16 a bushel in Chicago on April 9. ``We have no choice but to use GMO corn, as the grain is becoming increasingly costly and the price differential between GMO and ...

She showed it to some others who agreed that the flake looked like a map of the state of Illinois.Seeing potential profitability in the flake, her sister, Melissa, and her parents suggested that Emily try to sell it on eBay. She did just that, hoping to have some fun with it.The current bid for the flake? more than 682* British pounds, which is approximately equivalent to $1350.*The flake is currently in safe keeping, awaiting shipment.

Corn Snakes
2008-03-17 16:13:00
Corn snakes are the most popular pet snake there is, and for a very good reason. These are snakes with a very good temper, and they are very easy to keep in an enclosure. Their adult size will usually be between 4 to 6 feet, and they have a very slender body type. The "original" corn snake has a black and white checkered pattern on their bellies that resembles a corn cob. I say original because corn snakes have been bred to get the most amazing colors and patterns; spotted, striped, no pattern, and all kinds of colors. Even pet shops usually have a wide variety of these "morphs".Corn snakes live for a long time, around 15 to 20 years, so keep this in mind when buying one. In this care sheet I will try to explain the most important sides of having a pet corn snake.SetupWhen you get your first corn snake, it is important that you have its setup ready.First they need a tank to live in, a ten gallon tank is a good size for a young one. Then you increase the size of the tank up to 20 or ...
