SDSU professor: Homestake experiments could start in 2012
The initial suite of deep underground science experiments in the former Homestake Gold Mine could start in 2012 or 2013.
South Dakota State University assistant professor Robert McTaggart said that’s the timeline scientists were looking at when they met in Lead in April to began planning a grant application to support the engineering design of the experiments.
The National Science Foundation announced in July 2007 that Homestake will be the site for a deep underground science and engineering laboratory, or DUSEL.

SDSU historian: Cookbooks show recipe for social change
A South Dakota State University history professor’s ongoing study of cookbooks finds something spicy simmering in the 18th century: A slow recipe for social change.
Professor April Brooks came across copies of a once-popular cookbook while doing research in London: “The Whole Duty of a Woman, or A Guide to the Female Sex.” It was first published in 1695 and remained in print at least through 1835.
“It starts with a morality essay but it’s actually a cookbook, which I found a really odd combination,” Brooks said.
Though published in England, it was imported to America as well, and the number of copies that remain suggests it was widely used.
“It was kind of like ‘The Joy of Cooking’ or ‘The Fannie Farmer Cookbook’ of the 18th century,” Brooks said.
