Ainsworth Dyer - The Tarnak Farm incident refers to the killing of four Canadian soldiers and the injury of eight others from the 3rd Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Battle Group (3PPCLIBG) on the night of April 17, 2002, near Kandahar, Afghanistan. An American F-16 fighter jet piloted by Air National Guard Major Harry Schmidt dropped a laser-guided 500-pound (230 kg) bomb on the Canadians, who were conducting a night firing exercise at Tarnak Farms. The deaths were the first of Canada's war in Afghanistan, and the first in a combat zone since the Korean War. Son of the late Paul and Agatha Dyer of St. Laurent, Quebec.

1. What you need: white eggs, thread, a bunch of onion skins soaked in lukewarm water (so they'll soften), a pot of water in which to cook the eggs.
2. Wrap each egg first in onion skins, then wrap it snugly with thread.
3. Boil the eggs as you normally would.
4. Once the eggs are boiled and have cooled off, gently cut the threads (I use an exacto knife) and unwrap the eggs.
