Within the about.com website, there is a tip from an article by Peggy Trowbridge Flippone called "Perfect Gravy Tips and Hints."  First of all, people are always wanting to know just what they can use besides flour to thicken up their gravy.  Well, you will be happy to know that there are things, such as corn starch and arrowroot, that thicken up gravy much faster and better than flour ever could.  In fact, according to this article, arrowroot has "slightly more than twice the thickening power of flour."

  1. Make yourself a round cake of any size that you choose.
  2. Next, you will need to find an icing-filled bag of the # 5 size.
  3. Then draw the lines for the basketball in the same fashion as you see them on your example basketball in a dark brown color.
  4. Make sure to use a #18 star tip icing to do the fill-in work between the lines of the basketball and a #5 tip to do the outline work.
  5. Draw the eyes on the basketball and the mouth, preferably a mouth with a great big smile.  With the smile, you will know that the mouth will curve upward at each corner.  Fill in the iris part of the eyes with a darker shade of icing, along with the color of the pupils to suit your taste; that is, blue, brown, green, or gray.  You can use a food coloring to match the shades of the colors that you want for the eyes and the lines on the basketball, as well as the mouth, which you will need black icing for.
  6. If you want to show a bit of the tongue inside the mouth, then proceed to draw the appearance of part of the tongue inside the smiling mouth of the basketball cake with red icing.
  7. Now do the fill-in work with a medium brown icing and fill in the rest of the cake following the curved lines.
  8. Use a red food color spray to fill in the corners of the mouth where it curves upward.

GM Canola was first introduced in 1995, and, according to the article mentioned above, it is now grown on about 80 percent of the acres in Canada.  Besides gm canola's better resistance to certain herbicides, it is said to bring better yields, better returns, and more profits.  In a 2001 study, growers in Canada said that gm canola yielded a 10-percent increase over conventional canola.  The growers attributed the increase to "better yielding varieties, earlier seeding, and better weed control."

For more information on modified gm canola, see the official website article at Canola Council of Canada's online site.

It's great for entertaining guest, relaxing, complimenting a meal, or simply unwinding after a long day at work. No true wine enthusiast however would be caught dead without a wine rack. If you're in the process of buying a wine rack for your home, here's some information to help you with your decision.

There are several types of wine bottle racks available. They can be made of both metal or wood and some are vertical racks, while others are horizontal.

  1. Vertical Racks - Vertical wine bottle racks aren't usually the best choice. Vertical wine racks aren't recommended because the cork will dry out eventually and shrink up after a certain period of time. When this happens, it causes the wine to be exposed to air and it is eventually ruined. Vertical racks are really only useful for short term wine storage.
  2. Horizontal Racks - A horizontal wine bottle rack is a much better choice. Horizontal racks store the wine in a manner where the wine bottle cork will remain moist and swelled. This keeps your wine from going bad over time. Horizontal racks are also very flexible and cost effective as you can always increase wine storage space by stacking additional racks.
