It’s impossible to find a job in this area. I’ve been looking for work for four months and not a single offer has come my way.

Dear Desperate: You majored in a pretty specialized field. No doubt, many persons with your degree are having the same problem. Have you checked with libraries in the area? Maybe they could use an art expert. If not, maybe they’d let you stack books until something better comes along. It might be time to consider relocating to an area with more opportunities in your particular specialty. Check with local colleges or universities, or enlist the aid of an employment counselor. Don’t give up — the job won’t come looking for you.

Microwaves By PAT BRAMAN Extension Agent. Home Ec Are you one of those lucky homemakers who received a microwave oven for Christmas? If you are, you will find microwave cooking exciting and challenging. Like learning about any new appliance, it takes practice and patience to master the are of microwave cookery. Microwave ovens cook food by converting electricity into microwaves in a vacuum tube called a magnetron Microwave energy penetrates the food causing the water, fat or sugar molecules to vibrate or rub against each other This vibration is so fast that it creates friction which in turn causes the food to heat. This rapid vibration is why foods cook at such an incredible speed. This new appliance doesn't mean you will have to buy new cooking utensils. Chances are you already have many utensils in your kitchen that can be used Selecting the proper utensil is important Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, air and some plastics. They are reflected by metals. Metal containers should not be used, other than those recommended in the owners manual Metals can damage the magnetron tube and keep the food from cooking. Although microwave ovens have many advantages, there are still disadvantages. Uneven heating is one of the disadvantages or problems. Foods are a mixture of protein, fat and carbohydrate. Microwaves vibrate these different molecules at different rates resulting in the fatty portion being cooked faster than areas containing less fat. Browning is another problem of microwave ovens. Browning of food occurs when amino acids and sugar react at high temperatures in a dry environment. The surface of the food must be dry for this action to occur. Since food is quickly heated in a microwave oven, the water cannot evaporate fast enough to allow the surface to dry before the food is cooked. Some ovens have conventional heat units in them so that the food will brown Browning dishes and platters are also available. Cooking with a oven requires different techniques than those for conventional ovens. Before using your oven, read the owners manual thoroughly. If you understand how microwaves heat food, than you can use your knowledge to adapt conventional recipes. Your new microwave oven will not replace your conventional range, but it will compliment it. Learning to use your microwave will take time and determination, but you’ll enjoy experimenting with it. To learn more about microwave cookery, contact the County Extension Office and ask for the free publication entitled, "Using Your Microwave Oven" HE 421. A disco floor in your home Would-be John Travoltas can now have light-flashing disco dance floors in their own homes, thanks to a New Jersey firm. The company called Crown Industries, Inc., Newark, says that the disco boom has created a high demand for portable dance floors. As a result, the company has developed a portable dance floor, complete with flashing lights, that can be rolled up and carried home like a carpet. The portable floor comes in sections, 10 to 20 feet in size and contains strips of multi-colored flashing lights.
