I will be leaving in mid-December to teach/research at the Univ of Iowa. Many programs in information science are adding undergraduate components, but the one at Iowa is still all grad, which makes me happy - generally mature students, with a good share of career changers like myself. I will also coordinate their joint JD/MA program, so we'll see how that goes.

Iowa is a research school so my teaching duties will be limited - 1 class a term for a year, then 2 classes. The rest of the time I do research and your usual school service stuff. I'm really happy about that; I started the doctoral program to learn to do research and that's what I'm gonna be able to do. While most doctoral graduates in my field get a job (unlike English or history), you don't always get the job you want or in the part of the country you want. I'm blessed. I don't think that most people realize that you can't just knock on the door of the college down the street and get a job. It's a nationwide pool and if you want to work you may wind up somewhere you don't really want to live.

I'm looking forward to getting organic veggies delivered from the farm. You can sign up for it and get fresh veggies once a week. That says country to this city girl!

I never use the stuff (Canola oil) -- I use olive oil, butter, and rarely, if I have it for a particular reason, Crisco. Thanks for all that info. (Is Crisco bad for ya?)

Sorry to be late to the dose - pant, pant, trying to catch up with all the posts. Many thanks, as always Snugs, for the wonderful pics. I really like the one of Pres. Bush hugging the pretty ladies - the lamestream media and the looney left may claim he's not doing well with the public, but people clearly are delighted to be with him wherever he goes. Great speech today, and I look forward to more. Thanks again.

Good <grin>

It's partially hydrogenated cottonseed and other oils, or in its latest form, fully hydrogenated by a process they call interesterification. There is a decent looking web page on it, at: Mother Linda's: The Rise and Fall of Crisco. Looks like poison to me - a bad fat, with the risk of chemicals from the defoliants used to strip the cottonseed plant of its leaves just before harvesting, in addition to the unnatural poison of hydrogenated oil.

For those without religious conflicts, lard (pig fat) would be much better - better for you and makes the best pie crusts, or so I read another of Mother Linda's pages: Put Lard Back in Your Larder. I'll have to take her word for it on the pie crusts - I need an electronic computerized tea kettle to boil water.

My mother used cooken which is what I think you call shortening so is that what some people refer to Crisco (sp).

This has gone out of favour in Britain because it is hydronated vegetable fat that at one time people thought was better for you than lard but now with the trans fat reasearch available probably lard was better :0).

It is surprising but lard is still readily available in Britain whilst the hard white vegetable fat cookeen and Trex seem to have disappeared.

Well, then, I'm glad I haven't had occasion to use it for quite a while. I used it so seldom it would go bad in the refrigerator before I could use it a second time.

I am right then Crisco is the same as our Cookeen and Trex which as I said before seem to have disappeared which I am thinking a mixture between the trans fat issue and the fact that less people make pastry which is was mainly used for.

Most people I know buy it and I suspect whereas you do not see the Trex or Cookeen on the shelfs I bet it or something similar is in the shop bought pastry.
