most exciting "dummy" text
The exact origin of macaroni and cheese is unknown, though it most likely hails from Northern Europe, with the earliest known recorded recipe being scribbled down in 1769. A staple of American cuisine, the creamy combo made its way to the United States courtesy of Thomas Jefferson, who, while visiting France, became enamored of fashionable pasta dishes served there. He brought back noodle recipes and a pasta machine, since this foodstuff was unavailable in the Colonies. As president, he served macaroni and cheese at an 1802 state dinner.
Kraft Foods introduced its boxed macaroni and cheese in 1937, when America was in the throes of the Great Depression. The product could serve four for 19 cents, and the company sold 8 million boxes of its quick-and-easy macaroni and cheese in a year. With rationing in effect during World War II, the boxed mix continued to gain in popularity; staples such as fresh meat and dairy were in short supply. It's now the standard incarnation of the dish, and along with ramen noodles,

Piper mascot neither timely nor relevant in 2013
Piper mascot neither timely nor relevant in 2013
The HU Piper mascot is a polarizing figure that does not reflect the growing diversity or common sense of the university – the problem with hippies.
– November 4, 2013
By Don Allen, Opinion Columnist
Hamline University’s mascot, the Piper, or fictionally known as the Pied Piper of Hamelin, is the subject of a legend concerning the departure and death of a great number of children from the town of Hamelin (Hameln) in Germany. The HU mascot, similar to the Brazilian testicular cancer mascot, is beyond disturbing. Mr. Balls, or “Senhor Testiculo,” is the wide-eyed, dual-toothed, rosy-cheeked, mole-sporting scrotum that will cause a lifetime of nightmares for anyone who lays eyes on him. Although these two mascots are extremely disturbing, the one difference is that unlike Mr. Balls, HU’s Piper mascot is neither timely nor relevant in 2013.
