Poker players have always looked forward to the World Series of Poker, but modern players have a new sort of anticipation: Many of them hardly play any live poker until they head to Vegas. I'm one of these players. Most of my play takes place on the computer, and even though I love my chances against opponents at brick-and-mortar poker tables, I have to remind myself that there are adjustments I have to make. Poker may be the same game everywhere, but you will be losing money if you don't adjust to the different challenges, opponents and information involved in the live game.
If you are a skilled player, you know how to gather and process information at a poker table. When I'm playing live, however, I have to change my focus. For example, preflop play is completely different, especially in tournaments. We all know that preflop strategy affects all of our decisions and that any informational advantage you pick up before the flop will compound itself as the hand progresses. Online, however, there's often simply not much of an advantage available -- many opponents have a standard raise size and many opponents play roughly the same way preflop. Neither of these is the case live. Opponents playing live will open-limp and vary their raise sizes much more than their online counterparts; that means their ranges for all these actions must be narrower, which means there is extra information you should be collecting.
What I'm trying to get at is that you have much more to do before the flop in a live setting than you do online. There is far more information in the betting, and this also generates second-order information as your opponents react to the initial information. Some players attack limpers, while some get suspicious and just limp behind with a wide range. Knowing who does what will make a big difference in your live results. Preflop isn't a time to simply wait your turn and fold. It is a time to work.
To succeed live, you'll also need to adjust away from the felt. Many players I know find this much harder than making the adjustments they need to at the table. Being in a live poker scene simply puts strains on your body that are not present when you play online. I, for example, had to cope with the aftereffects of a long night at McFadden's with CardRunners members spent partying, playing beer pong and enjoying an open bar. It was worth it, but the next day I had to draw on the discipline I've developed over the years. Sitting in uncomfortable chairs for 12 hours while you wait two minutes between hands can be an unfamiliar and exhausting struggle even when memories of beer-game prop bets aren't close to mind.
We all like to imagine ourselves as fine-tuned mental machines that can hum along at top performance quite independently of our bodies, but that's not true of me and it's not true of you, either. You simply must get some exercise and eat reasonable food, and you have to keep doing that once you start. When I look around the WSOP in the first week and then look again in the third week, I might as well be in a different world. Most of the faces I see are worn by days or weeks of nonstop poker and partying. Even the ones who resolved to take care of themselves have mostly forgotten about it, lured by the more glamorous activities available in Las Vegas. It's easy to recommend complete abstinence from the wild side of Vegas -- if you can do it, great. If you're like me and enjoy the VooDoo Lounge too much to stay away, you need to aim for moderation and pay extra attention to your exercise and general health to make up for it.
Winning at live poker requires not just having skills but using them. My trips to Las Vegas have become more successful and enjoyable as I've figured out how to apply my skills on the literal felt and how to keep my body in its best shape.

Very Good Quality,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: SHANY Professional Makeup Kit, 78 Color (Health and Beauty)
I wasn't sure if I want to buy this product, 78 Color Palette for that price? Too true to believe.
But it was tempting to give it a shot and being a make-up artist I am always in search of new products. I don't believe in only one brand.
I got this palette very nice packed.
None of the shadows were chiped or damanged.
If I was to compare SHANY to another Brand name I would compare it to MAC, because they are in a way creamy but not exactly and the shadows apply beautifully!! On my first night out w/ my friends I did a silver dar smokey eye makeup applying only the shadows from this palette to test it and I was blown away, the makeup has stayed all night long the same as I applied at 8pm that evening.
I am so EXTREMELY happy I bough this palette, I want to buy more.
Sorry MAC, I don't think I could have afforded your prices for 78 shades of eyeshadows but I certainly can afford SHANY!

I'm a photographer and needed a larger color spectrum than most models have; so I bought the Bold and Bright palette and was also blown away at how bright and dense the colors were, and how they held up for over 4 hours of my shooting the same model. She was impressed too.

Star Gazing
The Frick Collection's Young Fellows Ball was an ethereal affair
There are plenty of stars in New York City. You see them at restaurants, getting coffee, going grocery shopping, you know, they're just like us. But those of the burning gas variety that twinkle far past the Earth's atmosphere are harder to find. Really, when was the last time you spotted the Big Dipper on your way home from a party?
So it was quite the treat Thursday evening when the Frick Collection brought a studded night sky to city folk at its annual Young Fellows Ball, this year sponsored by Paule Ka. The museum's façade glowed bright blue and inside, the Garden Court's cornices and ceiling were covered in a projection of constellations, in keeping with the ball's celestial theme. Servers bore trays also imprinted with backlit astronomical sightings, making the Lobster BLTs and mini baked potatoes all the more appealing.
The fresh-faced crowd kept with the "ethereal black tie" dress code—the writer Cator Sparks donned a headpiece the better to be a "celestial turban twirler"—and maneuvered around long trains while sipping their clear drinks (according to one bartender, dark-colored beverages are no longer allowed, presumably due to the stains of past bad behavior).
"It sort of reminds me of Grand Central station," remarked one young lady as she gazed up at the ceiling (for those who have never looked up, the main terminal also bears a constellation motif). "But everyone is better dressed."Follow Us:

"Last year, we were being talked about as a World Series team," Inge said of the Detroit Tigers. "There were some expectations that were realistic. We had some weaknesses that got overlooked because of the offseason moves.
"This spring, it is very different. People aren't jumping on our bandwagon; we finished last, we know it. But it's better. We're realistic, and we're getting a lot more work done."
"Hey," Jim Leyland said, "I hope everyone's picking us to finish last again."
Sorry, but that won't happen. If there's one team currently in Florida that might exceed winter expectations, it is the Tigers, who declined from 95 to 88 to 74 wins the past three seasons.
"A lot has to go right," Leyland said. "But we can be pretty good."
Detroit's fall last season could be attributed to three catagories: pitching, defense and injuries.
Justin Verlander, who made a run at the American League Cy Young Award in 2007, got into bad habits in spring training and finished 11-17. Jeremy Bonderman came down with a blood clot in his right arm and made just 12 starts. Nate Robertson finished with a 6.35 ERA. And Dontrelle Willis could not throw a strike. Only rookie Armando Galarraga's 13 wins kept the Detroit starters' ERA as low as 5.03.
Verlander has thrown the ball very well this spring and promises he has his arm slot back. Bonderman believes he will be back, healthy. Willis makes no promises, but he thinks he is on the road to rediscovering his delivery. "Until I do it," Willis said, "I don't think people want to hear me make excuses. Man, I stunk." The Tigers also added 14-game winner Edwin Jackson in an offseason trade with the Rays.
And on the radar is 20-year-old Rick Porcello, who was signed away from the University of North Carolina in August 2007 for more than $8 million. Porcello, a right-handed pitcher, was brought along slowly last season, throwing only 125 innings for Class A Lakeland. But his delivery, stuff and maturity have the coaching staff convined he can win in the AL right now, although the organization might hold off his arrival until June or July.
Porcello has been one of two major revelations thus far. The other has been Joel Zumaya, who is throwing smoke as he did in 2006. Zumaya and Fernando Rodney threw only 63 2/3 innings between them last season. But, healthy as they seem, they give Leyland a potentially dominant setup crew for new closer Brandon Lyon.
As for the defense, everyone realizes the Tigers had problems last season. Pudge Rodriguez and Edgar Renteria played like old players. The Carlos Guillen-Miguel Cabrera flip-flop also did not work right away.
Now they have what Leyland thinks is one of the best defensive left infields with a healthy Adam Everett and Inge, who is one of the premier defenders at third base. For Inge, getting out from behind the plate is really important.
"Catching, I couldn't think about hitting," Inge said. "I couldn't think about anything but the pitchers."
His career stat line shows that when Inge has caught, he has batted .199 with a .590 OPS and 27 homers in 1,149 at-bats. Playing anywhere but catcher, his career line is a .257 average, a .752 OPS and 69 homers in 2,112 at-bats.
Cabrera is making himself a good first baseman ("He may have the best baseball instincts on this team," says Leyland). Second baseman Placido Polanco is very good. Gerald Laird is an upgrade behind the plate, and Curtis Granderson is the centerpiece between Ordonez (right field) and Guillen (left field). They might need a defensive corner backup, but the improvement behind the pitching should make the staff better.
Then there are the injuries. Gary Sheffield batted .225 last season and had struggled for a year and a half with a bad shoulder, which he says is now healthy and strong.
"There's a lot to be excited about here," Verlander said. "But we need to stay under the radar and do it on the field."

27 Days of Professional Development: Day 3 Short History of Finnish Education
Posted by admin | Posted in inspiration, professional development, Reform Symposium Conference | Posted on 10-08-2011
I'm continuing to spread the Reform Symposium inspiration and professional development through a blog post series here! Today I'm sharing a fabulous opening Keynote from the Reform Symposium about the history of Finnish Education by Timo Ilomäki and Aki Puustinen. I continue to be amazed at the educational approach and model in Finland. If you aren't familiar with Finnish education I urge you to view the recorded keynote and follow-up with some Googling of "Education + Finland".
The keynote was really fantastic. I loved catching a glimpse of what education looks like in other parts of the world and this was no exception. We have so much to learn from and with each other. My favorite portion of the keynote was when one of Timo Ilomäki and Aki Puustinen's students answered questions from educators around the world. Even if you can only catch part of the keynote, definitely make sure to catch that portion at the end!

Incredible Gold Demand Overwhelms Gold ETF, Forced To Cease Share Creation
Nathan McDonald: The demand for gold remains intense. This year has seen incredible strength in the physical precious metals markets as gold, though not rocketing higher, has stood stout in the face of crashing commodities markets.
This strength has once again shown the world that gold is no mere metal. It is an insurance policy against political collapse, chaos and turmoil. In addition, it is true and real money – money that has stood the tests of time and weathered the many storms that have plagued mankind.
The latest indication of gold's incredible, continued strength comes from Blackrock ETF, who issues the IAU (Gold Trust). Blackrock is stating something truly staggering that cannot be ignored. They are stating that they have seen no net outflow of funds so far in 2016, not even for one day! This means that each and every day so far this year, the IAU has seen a constant pouring of money into the fund.
Have you ever wondered how billionaires continue to get RICHER, while the rest of the world is struggling?
"I study billionaires for a living. To be more specific, I study how these investors generate such huge and consistent profits in the stock markets -- year-in and year-out."
CLICK HERE to get your Free E-Book, "The Little Black Book Of Billionaires Secrets"
Due to this fact, and the incredible gold demand they are seeing, they have had to actually suspend the issuance of further gold trust shares and had the following to say in a recent press release:
Issuance of New IAU (Gold Trust) Shares Temporarily Suspended; Existing Shares to Trade Normally for Retail and Institutional Investors on NYSE Arca and Other Venues.
The suspension results from surging demand for gold, which requires registration of new shares.
iShares Delaware Trust Sponsor LLC, in its capacity as the sponsor of iShares Gold Trust (IAU), has temporarily suspended the creation of new shares of IAU until additional shares are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
This suspension does not affect the ability of retail and institutional investors to trade on stock exchanges. Retail and institutional investors will continue to be able to buy and sell shares in IAU.
IAU holds gold as a physical asset. IAU is an exchange-traded commodity (ETC), which therefore is not eligible for registration as an investment company under the '40 Act. IAU may only be registered under the '33 Act as a grantor trust. Under the '33 Act, subscriptions for new shares in excess of those registered requires additional filings with the SEC.
Nearly all other U.S. iShares are exchange-traded funds (ETFs), registered as investment companies under the '40 Act. The '40 Act provides for the continuous offering of shares and does not require registration of additional shares as the fund grows due to investor demand in connection to new subscriptions.
Since the start of 2016, in response to global macroeconomic conditions, demand for gold and for IAU has surged among global investors. IAU has $8 billion in assets under management, and has expanded $1.4 billion year to date. February marked its largest creation activity in the last decade.
This surge in demand has led to the temporary exhaustion of IAU shares currently registered under the '33 Act. We are registering new shares to accommodate future creations in the primary market by filing a Form 8-K to announce the resumption of the offering of new shares. The ability of authorized participants to redeem shares of IAU is not affected.
What is ironic or perhaps not at all, is that this announcement from Blackrock comes on the heels recent news stating that Canada has now officially sold ALL of their gold reserves, that's right, every single ounce.

Research Institution:
AbstractAutomated fiber placement (AFP) of thermoplastic (TP) composite jackets around large caliber gun barrels and railgun cores has enabled a dramatic increase in lethality while meeting aggressive maneuver requirements. Automated Dynamics has played a central role in the development of TP AFP technology and its use for this application. There is a continuing need to improve safety, temperature capability and productivity of existing technology. This project will apply existing TP AFP technology using metal matrix composites (MMC) for dramatic increase in temperature capability to meet the Army's aggressive targets. There are significant problems to be addressed to hit these targets including safety, higher power input and weld contamination issues. Unique MMC materials, advanced heating technologies and innovative processing will be used to achieve a quantum leap in process capabilities for composite jackets around large caliber gun barrels, railguns & many other military and commercial applications. The proposed effort will build on work in Phase I that demonstrated capabilities. Improvements will be made in heating technologies, processing, and materials. Testing will be performed on stub tubes and a full scale test article will be fabricated using the down-selected process.

African Architecture: Evolution and Transformation / Edition 1by Nnamdi Elleh
Pub. Date: 09/01/1996
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Professional Publishing
From Egypt to Ethiopia, Botswana to Burundi, and Zimbabwe to Cameroon, this landmark book presents the first complete and definitive study of African architecture from antiquity to the present. Featuring hundreds of museum-quality photographs and drawings from archival and modern sources, the book offers architects, architectural and art historians, social scientists, and all those interested in world architecture with an ordinary account of the evolution, transformation, and development of architecture across the African continent. Elleh defines the indigenous, Islamic, and Western roots of African architecture, and goes on to examine how these roots influence the architecture of each region in Africa. The author evaluates historical, traditional, and contemporary architecture by examing the various cultural groups of North, Central, East, South, and Western Africa from ethnic, climatic, political, regional, economic, religious, and historical perspectives. In addition, a final chapter takes a revealing look at modern architecture, urbanism, and urbanization throughout Africa. At once a work of convincing scholarship and a beautifully illustrated tour of African architecture past and present, this is a pioneering book that brings a heretofore rarely examined body of work dramatically to life.

Last Modified: Sunday, October 5, 2008 at 9:08 p.m.
A major crash usually weighs heavily on an airline's stock, but the impact is felt less heavily in the share price of the plane's manufacturer, according to a recent study.
Airlines typically suffer for up to three months after a major catastrophe, compared with only a week and a half for manufacturing companies, according to San Diego State University researchers.
They also found that disasters have little or no effect on the long-term pricing of any stock, according to Kuntara Pukthuanthong-Le, an SDSU finance professor who led the study.
"We were surprised that stock was impacted as much as it was in the short-term, especially in instances where the market should have recognized that it was an accident that had occurred," she said.
The declines are a result of investors' anticipation of legal liability claims, which the airlines are more likely to see than the manufacturers - even if the accident was the result of equipment failure, she said.
The study looked at a sample of 174 aviation accidents around the world between 1950 and 2004.
Think you dodged the bullet because you don't live on the coasts of Florida or Texas? Hurricane season runs through November.
Some tips from the National Hurricane Center and Chubb Corp. to protect yourself from severe storms and flooding:
Plan ahead. Discuss an evacuation plan with your family, stock up on nonperishable food and emergency supplies, and make a plan for what to do with your pets.
When entering your home or a room with water damage, be careful if doors stick - it could mean the ceiling is sagging.
Turn off electrical and gas sources, even if service is out in the area.
Secure a storage area in a cool, dry room with good air circulation for wet valuables, photos, birth certificates and deeds. Stand damp books with their spines facing up, and fan the pages every few hours.
Document structural damage and inventory your possessions as best as possible with video or photographs.
Start the day with something healthy and learn about Habitat for Humanity, too. You can do both on Thursday at the October Business and Breakfast from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at 1317 George Jenkins Blvd. Bill Mutz of Lakeland Automall will be speaker.
Business and Breakfast is an opportunity for Lakeland Area Chamber of Commerce members and area business to network with each other and make new contacts, find suppliers and customers. A different host site sponsors the event each month. This time its Habitat for Humanity.
It's $5 for members and $15 for guests, but you have to call ahead to be sure of a seat. The number for Lakeland Area Chamber of Commerce is 688-8551, Ext. 232 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. by 5 p.m. Wednesday.

Your style is absolutely fantastic and so incredible! You are by far one of my favourite artists here, mainly due to my dog obsession. I really love the way you choose athletic breeds and put emphasis on their sleek bodies and heads. My eyes are always very attracted to them in all of your pieces. What I really admire in you is that behind each character there is a complex story and original reference to human culture. Here, we have wonderful references to African tribes in jewellery and clothing. The pattern on her clothing (sorry, if I got the gender wrong) reminds me of Mucha's work, the detail is so beautiful. The colours are wonderful, their warmth made me feel as if I was in Sahara. They contrast really well with the expression on the face. This piece is too awesome to describe and very inspiring!
P.S. Sorry if I had written this comment twice, I didn't see it being posted so I was worried if it was submitted at all.

VERY cool draw! I really like this drawing. Cool drawing !!!
Very well detailed and beautiful.
wow, this is perfect
Your colour sense never fails to impress me. I love the warm, golden hues here; it's such a wonderful contrast to the emotion in the character.
Ooh, täydellinen anatomia ja niin kauniit on taas nuo värit tässä ;3;
That outfit is gorgeous! Love the colors too. Really makes me think of warmth.
The colours and the wind in the clothes is perfect! I really like the patterns of the clothes, such an africa-feeling
Beautiful color scheme, and very well done with the cloth perspective with wind - adds a lot to the piece and the atmosphere
Beautiful, love the clothing and the colours.
That looks awesome and gorgeous. I love all your characters. They're all so epic, and unique in their own great magnificent ways. Just a question. Are all these characters from a few stories you're working?
This Art Nouveau vibe is just to fall for.
Oh, there's an art nouveau vibe? :'3
love the choise of colours...really reminds of desert
wow amazing !

It is still cold here so I made a big pot of black bean soup this evening. I also made whole wheat rolls with organic stone ground whole wheat flour that grown and milled by flourgirl51.
The rolls were great. I was really surprised... the flour felt much courser than the whole wheat flour I usually buy and the dough seemed pretty rough, not silky. But the rolls rose beautifully and had a wonderful wheaty flavor. No complaints from my kids, which is usually my test of whether I've gotten too organic for my own good. So thank you, flourgirl51, so much for the flour. I will be looking forward to baking with the rest and trying your rye flour as well.
I've been asked (via Messages!!) to post the recipe I used for Pitas. I made two recipes, but I'll post the one that was designed as a Pita recipe. Apparently just about any bread recipe will work, although I don't know about high-hydration doughs.
In my experimenting, I've become curious about the role of the yeast. My conjecture is that the yeast just helps with the development of the gluten and of the formation of a gluten skin (as I think someone called it). I don't think it has much of any role in the puffing up.
This recipe was taken from Beatrice Ojakangas' Great Whole Grain Breads. It's on page 277 and is called "Whole Wheat Pita Bread".
I won't go into the details of making the dough. Do it however you usually do it. Develop it into a smooth ball, but it doesn't need to rise. Ojakangas has you let it rest about 15 minutes after the mixing and before kneading 10 minutes on a board. Then you cover it and let it rest 20 minutes. Then you "punch dough down" and divide into four parts, and each part into four more, for a total of sixteen. So the dough for a single standard loaf of bread will make about eight standard pitas.
Shape each piece of dough into a small ball and roll out to make a 6-inch circle. I don't know how thick this is, but I suspect it's 3/16 of an inch. In my subsequent pita trial, I used the special rubber bands for rolling pins and rolled them out to 1/8 inch, and they were quite a bit thinner. Cover and let rise 30 minutes.
Here's where the Ojakangas narration gets confusing. I'll adapt. While the pitas are rising, preheat the oven to 500 degrees with a stone in place (for 30 minutes). Arrange six pitas at a time on parchment paper. With the assistance of a cookie sheet - a rimless one or a rimmed one turned upside down - transfer the pitas and the parchment to the stone. Bake 4-5 minutes "or until rounds are puffed and tops begin to brown." But don't wander off. Turn on the oven light and sit on the floor to watch. Mine started to puff up at about the two minute mark, and they were fully puffed up about a minute later. Quite a show.
Last night I made two loaves of Honey Wheat Bread that I found on Allrecipes.com - it is really good, although it didn't rise quiet like I'd hoped. That said, it's still very good. I went "simple" for dinner tonight and made Tuna Melts on the bread I made yesterday...mmm, yummy! I need to get my camera working so I can take some pictures. I'm looking forward to doing a lot more, and sharing with you all. This site looks great - I'm glad I came across it.
My ultimate idea is to cook as much of the food as my family eats as possible - we've recently started doing things like beef jerky etc. Bread is the next thing on my list I want to start doing much more often (as my title implies, last nights batch was only my third attempt at a yeast bread, although I love making apple bread and things). At this point, I have no desire for a bread machine - I'd like to figure out what I'm doing by hand first, and there is just something ... soothing for me when I'm kneading dough (and I can tell myself it's a great upper body workout!).
I hope to making another attempt this weekend, and then maybe get some pictures going and try out some of the wonderful looking recipes on this site! I'm glad I'm here.
This is a very basic simple recipe that came with my Bell La Cloche...recipe by Chuck Williams of Williams-Sonoma.
This is a straight dough...1 pkg. ady, 1 tsp. sugar, 1-3/4 c. warm water '110' degrees F., 5 cups hard wheat unbleached flour or All-Purpose flour, 3/4 tsp. salt.
My husband is out with his bike cycling team today and Im doing my favorite thing 'baking' of coarse! : )...so I've taken a favorite recipe from the http://allrecipes.com site and made a few changes to convert it into a sourdough cherry scone recipe...the original recipe is called Grandma Johnson's Scones...tested by over 1000 bakers and given 5 star rating. Instead of sourcream I used sourdough a little buttermilk, cut the butter in half added some vanilla and almond extract with some lovely extra fancy sour cherries from a specialty market, I also added a 12 grain flour from K.A. flours.
The scones turned out wonderful....they had a lovely flavor and tender...I mix in the butter with my fingers and like using a gentle drop shaped scone!
Brushed and baked with egg glaze and decorator sugar.
These scones have a lovely flavor without any topping! In fact I was enjoying the taste of the raw dough : O !!
Megapretzels, sunflowerbread and carrot-almond bread
Last time I made pretzels, I received a request for megapretzels. So I made twice the batch of dough this time. But once I was done shaping for the first batch (normal size pretzels), the dough of the second batch became too hard to handle. The result is in the picture (upper left). Taste is still fine, form goes nowhere. The normal size ones turned out fine. You can see how I cut them in half to include e.g. cheese (Edam or Gouda, after all I am from Holland...!)The sunflowerbread is from a slowrising dough, no mix, 100% wholewheat. Now I know I should put in 1/3 of standard flour and rise no longer then 8-12 hours in the fridge. This could become my new 'no brain bread' (meaning just standard, nothing fancy). Shaping and form is not up to my standard..
The last bread certainly was not boring. I found the recipe in a small booklet "Das kleine Brotbuch" (the small breadbook), which I received some 10 years ago. It mentions a carrot-almond bread, I sticked to the recipe. The taste is pretty strong, this is almost cake-like. It just got out of the oven, so I don't have a real opinion about it yet. BTW the introduction of the booklet reads: "if you read this booklet carefully, it will be easy for you to become a succesful "Baeckerin" (lady baker)". The smell is incredible. Recipe on request!
Happy baking!Jw.
The last time I made caraway rye bread, I used the recipe in The Joy of Cooking. We really like it. But as I was leafing through The Bread Bible by Rose Levy Beranbaum, I noticed her recipe for rye bread. A recipe that looked too good.
Whenever my father had an excuse to return to the Bronx, he'd never come back without a freshly baked loaf from his favourite bakery. I liked the rye bread, studded with constellations of caraway seeds, best. My grandmother, who lived with us, would serve it to me spread thickly with unsalted btutter, the top paved with rounds of sliced red radishes. - Rose Levy Beranbaum, The Bread Bible, page 324
How could I not try this bread?
As it turns out, this is the best rye bread we've had. Thank you, Rose Levy Beranbaum!!
I would love to have tried the bread with butter and sliced radishes. But we didn't have any radishes.... Initially, I had thought we would be making Reuben sandwiches with it. But my husband was so thrilled with how light it was that we decided to serve it with goulash and steamed broccoli. It was brilliant!
Hi. My name is Leigh, and I consider myself a pretty expert cook. I've been teaching myself for almost 4 years now, but I come from a wonderful line of cooks and bakers. I've made a few breads over the past few months, but I'm definitely still learning.
I made some amazing dinner rolls for Valentines Day last week, and I have some Honey Wheat Bread rising now - it's taking forever, but I have good hopes. It looks yummy, at least! And I guess that's all for now!
I wanted to make a bread for a recent gathering of friends. My preference was for something sweet but not a sticky, gooey kind of sweet. After paging through a number of books, I came across a recipe in Beth Hensperger's The Bread Bible for a sweet vanilla challah that sounded like it would fit the bill. The recipe called for just 1/2 cup of sugar in a two-loaf batch of bread, so it wasn't excessively sweet. The flavor, though, was driven by 1-1/2 tablespoons of vanilla extract in the dough and another teaspoon of vanilla extract in the glaze. How could it be anything but good?
The dough ingredients include:
1 tablespoon yeast (instant or active dry)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon salt
6-1/2 to 7 cups of flour
1-3/4 cups hot water (120 F)
4 large eggs at room temperature, lightly beaten
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1-1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
The glaze ingredients include:
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Combine the yeast, sugar, salt and 2 cups of the flour; mix by hand or by mixer.
Add the hot water, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Beat hard until smooth. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time. Continue beating until the dough is too stiff to stir.
Turn out on a lightly floured surface and knead until soft and springy and a layer of blisters shows under the skin, about 4 minutes. (Note: I did not see any blisters forming, but kneaded until the dough was smooth and elastic.) The dough needs to be slightly firm for free-form loaves.
Place the dough in a greased deep container. Turn the dough once to coat the top and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, 1-1/2 to 2 hours. (Even with room temperature at a relatively cool 65F in my kitchen, it did not need this much time to double. I could see this doubling in less than an hour with warmer, summer-time temperatures.)
Grease or parchment-line 1 or 2 baking sheets. (I went with 2 sheets, not wanting to risk the two loaves growing together while they baked. It turned out to be a good choice. Note that Ms. Hensperger also offers the option of using springform pans.) Gently deflate the dough. Turn the dough onto a lightly-floured surface. Divide the dough in 2 equal portions. Roll each portion out into a smooth, thick strip about 30 inches long, with one end 2-3 inches wider than the other. (Picture a shorter, thicker billiard cue stick.) Roll to to lengthen and taper the thinner end. With the wide end on the work surface, lift the tapered end and wind the rest of the dough around the thick end 2 or 3 times, forming a compact coil. Pinch the thin end to the body of the coil and tuck it under. Place the coils, with the swirl pattern facing up, on the baking sheet(s). Cover loosely with plastic wrap and allow to rise until nearly doubled in bulk, about 30-40 minutes. Because of the eggs, this loaf does not need to double completely; it will rise enough in the oven. (And how! It sprang up to double or treble its original height.)
Twenty minutes before baking, preheat the oven to 350F. To make the vanilla egg glaze, whisk together the egg yolk, vanilla and sugar in a small bowl. Beat until well blended. Gently brush the dough surfaces with a thick layer of the glaze. Place the baking sheet(s) on a rack in the center of the oven and bake 40-45 minutes, or until a deep, golden brown and the loaves sound hollow when tapped with your finger. Carefully lift the turbans off the baking sheet(s) with a spatula and transfer to cooling racks. Cool completely before slicing.
The finished bread looks like this:
Now, any bread smells good when it's baking. This bread's fragrance while baking is over the top; our whole house was perfumed with vanilla.
The flavor is also marvelous. The crumb is fine-textured, smooth and moist. It's good all by itself, with a dab of butter, with jam or marmalade, and toasted. It will never last long enough to go stale, but it would make a wonderful base for either French toast or bread pudding.
The results were every bit as good as I had anticipated and a big hit with my friends.
OK, I know you're out there. Maybe those Birks are getting dusty or they're hidden in the closet along with your beaded vest and shrunken tie-dye, but you're really hankerin' for some good ol' fashioned hippie bread. Just like the kind you used to eat while working on your macrame choker and groovin' to Cat Stevens before he became public enemy number one. Here you go.A friend of mine was looking for something all-too-healthy, and I came up with this recipe. It is primarily whole wheat with buckwheat flour, flax seeds, toasted almonds, and other goodies. It's not exactly airy like ciabatta, but it sure has a lot of flavor. Plus, if you need to, you can put some loaves over your wheels in the bed of your truck in the wintertime to get some extra traction. I've tried a few different shapes, and the boule seems to help the loaf out the most because you can give it some height in the shaping for a boost of confidence in the proofing stage. Try it out and hope you like it! This is a link to the recipe in PDF format.
PS, I'm about 2 weeks from finishing a couple of instructional DVDs. If you're interested, I can email you when they're ready, or you can stay tuned here since I'll be posting about it on TFL when they're done.

Patient Comments: Hamstring Injury - Cause
What was the cause of your hamstring injury?
Comment from: Pete, 65-74 Male (Patient) Published: February 18
I slipped on ice with my left foot. My left leg skidded forward and my right leg went behind me. I fell back onto my right leg and felt a terrific strain on my hamstrings then a sudden shock. The pain was very severe and I couldn't move my leg at all or even sit. I was also on warfarin since I had atrial fibrillation. It took 3.5 hours for an ambulance to arrive in wet and cold conditions, and my core temperature dropped severely. Turns out I had torn my hamstring at the buttocks and in the middle, and also my calf muscle. I lost a large amount of blood internally and needed 3 pints transfusion. MRI showed a large hematoma running down my femur that will take a year to be absorbed. After 5 weeks I can just about walk with one crutch, but it will take several weeks before I can walk normally. The initial pain was horrendous, and even now it is sore to walk and I feel very weak when I try to walk unaided. Main pain after 5 weeks is at joint of thigh and buttocks and in the middle of my calf. I have always been active, playing football and rugby, and also middle distance runner from 12 till until aged around 45.
Comment from: Big Dennis, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: December 29
I have had atrial fibrillation for over 3 years. I tried living with it, but I started getting depressed and feeling more run down every month. Four cardioversions did not help. I finally had an ablation on 12/23/2015. So far it is working, but it is too soon to say how successful it is. My heart is in rhythm and I feel better every day.
Comment from: norovirus, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: December 15
The stomach flu hit me around 3.30 pm on a Friday, and now on Monday I can finally eat some crackers and drinking Gatorade. The stomach cramps the first two days were unreal, never have I felt pain like that and I have a decent threshold for pain. Now on day 4 the cramps are minor and my belly is a little sore. I had diarrhea for the entire time but never crazy out of control. Now I'm noticing it is a dark green color which says that the bacteria is finally making its way out. Good luck to anyone that gets this as I wouldn't wish it on anyone!
Comment from: shahid, Published: December 10
I am a retired soldier who was exposed to a lot of firing of small as well as heavy weapons without any ear protection kit. For the last couple of years there is a ringing noise especially at nights when it is calm outside. Recently my sleep is quite disturbed although I have been regularly taking Ativan table 1 mg every night for last couple of years. When the effect of this tablet decreases I start dreaming quite bad and do not feel fresh when I wake up. I need an expert opinion how to cope up. All my life I have been suffering from allergic rhinitis and keep using nasal sprays for post nasal drip.
Comment from: Mrs B., 75 or over Female Published: October 27
I am going through chemotherapy and I just noticed my ring finger turning red first on the side and spreading up to the middle and sore to touch. I soaked it with equal parts of white vinegar and water and I scraped banana peel and applied around it with the use of Band-Aid. Now it is starting to dry and I have less pain. I went to show it to my doctor the following day and he advised me to put triple antibiotic if my paronychia got worse. He asked me what I put, and I said I tried to use my emergency home remedy and it helps.
Comment from: bonamar, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: June 14
My rheumatic fever (RF) was never diagnosed, not enough symptoms. Later I had secondary thrombosis after taking the early birth control pill for about 3 months. I was then told I had RF and all my veins were varicose.

I think for most amatures and perhaps some masters its hard t truly define when one leaves the middlegame into the endgame. Well I think I've come up with a satisfactory definition of when one enters the endgame in general so here it is. Endgame Phase-When for both sides EXCLUDING the king and pawns both are left with only half or less of the army. When I say half I mean (3 pieces each no matter what the pieces are for ex. Q+2R vs. R+B+N OR Q+R vs 2R+B) and when say less I mean anwhere from 0-3. Well of course this needs critisizm s please comment guys.
I very much agree I cant think of a example that disproves it.
Strong and brave king = endgameCoward hide away king = middle game
Very creative
you can have a hideaway king and it still be a endgame it just means you'll have a bad or very difficult endgame to play most of the time.
is it important to have a good definition?
there is a confusion in definition because of theory
In general when there is reduced material on the board and mating attacks against the king are highly unlikely. postitions with Q+ 2pieces of any type has too many middlegame features where a mating attack can occur and decide the game.
Positions where the primary plan to win is now pawn promotion and NOT a mating attack or an attempt to win material then your likely in an endgame (general rule) 2 rooks can generate powerful attacks so this might confound this definition. the reason this is important is once the king is unlikely to come under an attack by multiple pieces it can start to take a more active role in the game.
I would say that 3 pieces on the board is an endgame WHEN queens are not 1 of the pieces.
Endgames come in two flavors
1) concrete endgames that have a clear outcome with best play by both sides. The position is a win, loss or draw, period no discussion needed
2) almost endgames where the above is almost true but not clear (there is a book by Flear that I really like on this subject, he calls them NQE , not quite endgames. the book really shows the thought process strong players go through when looking at positions that can transpose into endgames where things arent 100% clear,...
positions with Middlegame factors can be included in the "not quite endgame" portion, where mating attacks are also a primary consideration.
How about the piece sum adding up to 6 pieces not including pawns and the king.
Not even slightly.

From the Gospel of Thomas...
70) Jesus said, "If you bring forth what is within you, what you
bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is
within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you."
Jesus said, "Let him who seeks continue seeking until he
finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes
troubled, he will be astonished, and he will rule over the All."
Anonymous Coward 25567776
If a persons spirit be evil and they bring forth what is within them, they shall commit evil. If a persons spirit be good and they bring forth what is within them, they shall commit good. Knoweth now that many of the scriptures spoken to the disciples were for them not for all those whom would read it then after. They were called children of God because they are they were not like other humans but spirits chosen known to be found and awakened by us when we were on earth known as Jesus Christ.
The misconception of mankind is they believe it applied to all people reading, this is not the case most spirits on earth are by eternal law considered evil and destined for condemnation, requiring aid through their own repentence. For we gave world good so they may know it they being evil knew only evil until the Light came.

About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him - and I didn't know how potent that part might be - that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

It was very strange, for I knew we were both in mortal danger. Still, in that instant, I felt well. Whole. I could feel my heart racing in my chest, the blood pulsing hot and fast through my veins again. My lungs filled deep with the sweet scent that came off his skin. It was like there had never been any hole in my chest. I was perfect - not healed, but as if there had been no wound in the first place.
