Welcome to the living history of Hellenic Sports. Olympiacos F.C. is far from being an ordinary club. It is a family; and all together, the administration, the technical staff, the athletes and the fans constitute the building blocks of history in the making of the most successful and powerful sports organisation in the country throughout the years.
Talk about football in
These accomplishments are no coincidence. The members of the red and white family work hard, in perfect harmony. The team has the best Greek athletes, while top international players and many talented athletes have played for OLYMPIACOS, contributing to its glorious history. The administration has satisfied all the requirements of the technical staff, while many promising talented players, who contractually belong to OLYMPIACOS, are currently on loan to other clubs.
The club's facilities comply fully with UEFA standards. The G. Karaiskakis stadium, with a total capacity of 32,115 seats, is the "hot" home ground of OLYMPIACOS, always packed, and also hosts both national and international football events. The Greek National team also plays in the G. Karaiskakis stadium. In addition, in the 2004 Olympic Games in
It is worth mentioning that our facilities are also available to the young players of the
The fans, the administration, the players and the technical staff would also like to welcome this year's new team members. All together, aware of what it means to be a member of the red and white family, we will work hard again over the next year in order to add more golden pages to the history of OLYMPIACOS.
OLYMPIACOS is the biggest title-winning club in
The truly original title was unanimously approved by the members of the Club, resolving the problem that had arisen of finding a mutually acceptable name. It had been the inspiration of Notis Kamperos, who wanted the title of the new club to suggest power, athletic strength, ethos, noble rivalry, dominance and ultimately the Olympic ideal.
The people who undertook the initiatives undoubtedly belonged to the category of self-made businessmen in the port. The Andrianopoulos family owned a medium-sized commercial business run by the father Andreas Andrianopoulos. His children participated in all sports. They contacted other distinguished leaders of Piraeus society with a view to creating an athletic association, which would bring a new breath to the community. Until then, there was only the Piraikos Syndesmos, which had a variety of activities (literary, educational, cultural and athletic). Among the most notable members were Michalis Manouskos, one of the city's industrialists, Notis Kamperos, a senior naval officer, Stavros Maragoudakis, the director of the Post Office, Nikos Andronikos, the merchant, Dimitrios Sklias, the Army officer, the attorney, Nikolaos Zacharias, the notary public, Athanasios Mermigas, the notary public, Ioannis Kekkes, the stock broker, and of course the Andrianopoulos family of merchants.
Olympiacos was identified from the beginning with the Adrianopoulos brothers. The Adrianopoulos brothers raised the reputation of the club and added glory to it. Never before had five brothers played side by side in the same team; moreover, they composed the team's forward line. Certainly, we should not forget other excellent players like Kostas Klidouchakis, the goalkeeper of the team, Nikos Panopoulos, Charalambos Pezonis, Panos Koronaios and Kostas Terezakis.
The 1930s would be very successful for the Piraeus club. The club won a hatful of titles and dominated the Greek championship. The real strength of the club lay in its fans, who constantly demonstrated their support even at friendly matches. Against Panathinaikos, Apollona or AEK, the fans followed the team, manifesting their loyalty to the club. The Olympiacos fans invented various ways to celebrate the club's victory and to mock the opponents of their beloved team. Victories against Panathinaikos were specially celebrated.
In 1931, Olympiacos won the Greek national league title for the first time in the history of the club. Prior to the Second World War the "Legends" of Olympiacos guided the team to 6 league championships, whereas the 1934-35 championship was never concluded.
Records show that Olympiacos was by far the most successful and most popular club in Greek football history.
"Fleet from front.." a needless warning, since Olympiacos' opponents knew exactly what to expect. In 1930-31, during the first National Championship, Olympiacos lined up a great team comprised of Grammatikopulos, Adrianopoulos brothers – Yiannis, Dinos, Giorgos, Vassilis and Leonidas, Lekkos, Kourantis, Terezakis, Pezonis, Panopoulos, Sofras, Chrisafopoulos and many others. Olympiacos triumphed not only at the Velodrome – the Karaiskakis – but also at other stadiums of Athens and Thessaloniki. In addition, Olympiacos put in a great performance and beat most of the teams participated in the championship (Panathinaikos, AEK, Aris, Iraklis and PAOK) 3-1; sole exception, the match against Ethnikos, where Olympiacos netted 4 goals and won with 4-1.
Olympiacos' dominant performance was the inspiration for Vasiliadis, who wrote the lyrics of the anthem and Laoutaris, who composed its music: "one, two, three goals, panic everywhere! Triumph victory - Olympiakos! "An anthem, which was sung by players and fans with clenched fists and tears in their eyes, inside and outside of the stadium. The anthem soon became a fashion; heard almost everywhere, in parties, excursions, etc; echoed and resounded around the city of Piraeus.
In 1933-34, Olympiacos sustained its dominance. The team won the championship by beating Iraklis, home and away, while the club continued its supreme path by winning all its international matches. In 1934-35, the championship started, but it was never completed, partly because of the organisation of the 4th Balkan Cup and partly due to political and military turmoil, which forced EPO to interrupt the championship.
The next year was a landmark for the team. In an overwhelming match, Olympiacos defeated Panathinaikos 6-1, and the fans marched across
The next season, 1938-39, Olympiacos lost the championship; a setback that had a negative influence on the performance of the team in the Cup. Still, by 1940, Olympiacos had already won 6 championships in 11 seasons.
Then came the War. On 27th October 1940, several players travelled to Patras for the match between "mixed
"Shoot me and kill me with my Olympiacos shirt on, and do not bind my eyes so that I may see the colours of my team before the final shot". "On the wall with the red shirt", Alexandros Asonitis, Eleftherotypia, 19/5/2002.
The sun rises from the mountains, you cannot tell which is more red, the shirt that Nikos wears next to his skin, whose white stripes have turned red too from blood - or the sun?" "Until dawn", Stamatis Skourtis.
Olympiacos paid the price with the death of its players (including Godas, who asked to be killed wearing the Olympiacos' shirt – and Anamateros).
Under such extreme conditions of military conflict, football was a luxury. Both players and fans were made liable for military service and were required to register; hence there was no room for football. After the end of the War came the Civil War, which was equally destructive. After the wars were over, Olympiacos was ready to march to victory once more.
In 1946-47, Olympiacos returned triumphantly, winning the league and the Cup and celebrating the first double in the history of the team. Throughout the 1950s, Olympiacos claimed 7 championships and 7 cups, including 5 doubles.
At that time Olympiacos became known as the "LEGEND", with thousands of followers. Olympiacos' opponents acknowledged the club's superiority, while all Greece became interested in the team from the City of Piraeus. Most probably, that was also the reason why most football clubs tried to earn the right to play against Olympiacos in friendly matches.
By 1960, Olympiacos had won 15 championships in 23 seasons, as well as 9 Greek Cups, making for 6 doubles. From 1947 to 1959, Olympiacos won 9 out of the 12 championships (1947,1948,1951,1954, 1955,1956,1957,1958,1959), 8 Cups out of 13 (1947,1951,1952,1953,1954,1957,1958,1959) and celebrated 6 doubles (1947, 1951, 1954, and 3 in a row 1956-1959); a record performance achieved by no other club so far.
Other distinctions during this period were the winning of the Easter Cup (1945, 1953, 1957, 1959), the Christmas Cup (1953, 1956, 1958, 1959), and the Solidarity Cup (1955).
It is worth noting that, in 1958-59, Olympiacos was chosen by lot to face Besiktas, but for political reasons, the team was not allowed to travel to Turkey. In the same year, Olympiacos' mixed team played against AEK, Panathinaikos and America Rio.
Between 1959 and 1963, Olympiacos won the Greek Cup 3 consecutive times, whereas the next year, the Cup was cancelled due to incidents caused by the fans of Olympiacos and Panathinaikos at the historical game held on 17th June 1964. In 1965-66 and 1966-67, Olympiacos were again crowned Greek Champions.
In addition, Olympiacos participated in the Cup Winners Cup, the Balkan Cup and European Champions Cup. The team also played many friendly games against international teams such as
In 1960-61, it is worth noting Olympiacos' victory 2-1 over Pele's team, Santos Sao Paolo.
Then followed the years of the great Márton Bukovi, the top-rank Hungarian coach of the years 1965-67. In 1966-67, Olympiacos brought the Cup trophy into the
The regime of the Colonels had devastating consequences for Olympiacos. Bukovi was removed and the great team was dissolved.
These were very difficult years for Greece, since the regime of the Colonels affected all aspects of life.
In the 1972-73 season, Olympiacos won the league and the Cup, its 7th double, with 94 points and only one defeat in the entire championship, while the team performed rather well in the UEFA Cup competition.
In a record performance in the 1973-74 season, a highlight season of the 1970s, Olympiacos won the league and the Cup from AEK and Panathinaikos, respectively, with 102 goals. On an international level, Olympiacos performed well, facing opponents such as Celtic and
During that period, some great names passed from Olympiacos, such as Nikos Goulandris (President), Triantafyllos, Vieras, Delikaris, Synetopoulos, Losantas, Kelesidis and many others.
The team went through a relatively dry period in the second half of the 1970s; but in the early 1980s Olympiacos emerged again as the dominant power in Greek football.
In the summer of 1979, the championship became professional, while Olympiacos came into the hands of Stavros Ntaifas.
In 1980, Olympiacos, with Kazimierz Górski on the bench and key players like Novoselac, Galakos, Mitropoulos, Kousoulakis and Nikoloudis, won the first professional championship and the Cup of Friendship and Solidarity, otherwise known as the Super Cup.
In 1981, Olympiacos won the championship again as well as the Cup and achieved the 9th double in the team's history. Yet, on 8th February 1981, the darkest page of Olympiacos and Greek football in general was written, following the tragedy of Gate 7.
8/2/1981: The tragedy of Gate 7
Sunday 8th February 1981 was a bright, sunny day, just like any other day for the football supporters of OLYMPIACOS F.C. Match Day 20, and the Reds were hosting a game against AEK, who were two points behind in the championship table.
The stadium was packed and all tickets had been sold out. Everyone was in a good mood, chanting, and nothing could suggest the tragic events that were to follow. Kick off was at 15.15 and OLYMPIACOS F.C. started off with the following players: Sarganis, Kirastas, Vamvakoulas, Papadopoulos, Novoselac, Kousoulakis,
The game turned out to be a win for OLYMPIACOS F.C., who beat AEK 6-0: three goals by Galakos (30', 53', 84'), one by Koussoulakis (68'), one by Orfanos (75') and one by Vamvakoulas (80'). The crowd was more than excited. Filled with enthusiasm, the fans located at the stadium's Gate 7 tried to rush out in order to reach Gate 1 and cheer for the triumphant team. And then disaster struck.
The exit door was locked, or according to other testimonies, slightly open and there were too many fans. One of the fans, who were running cheerfully towards the exit door, tripped and fell on the steps. Dozens of people fell onto each other and were then trampled by the waves of fans who kept coming, completely unaware that anything was wrong. As a result, twenty one people who attended the game -just to enjoy their beloved team- died that day and many more were injured.
Twenty seven years later, today, it feels like not a day has gone by. Everyone still remembers both this tragedy and the 21 victims, and every 8th February we mourn their loss. In the name of those people there is a monument outside the new "George Karaiskakis" stadium and amongst the seats in gate 7, there are 21 black chairs which belong to those who are no longer with us:
The 21 victims of the tragedy that occurred on 8th February 1981
Panagiotis Toumanidis, 14 years old
Kostas Sklavounis, 16 years old
Ilias Panagoulis, 17 years old

Anastassios Pitsolis, 30 years old
Antonis Kouroupakls, 34 years old
Christos Hatzigeorgiou, 34 years old
Dimitris Adamopoulos, 40 years old
In 1987, Olympiacos again won the championship title by a 10 point margin over Panathinaikos.
Olympiacos experienced its darkest days from the late 1980s until the mid-90s. This period is known as "Olympiacos' stone years".
In 1988, the coming of Lajos Détári was greeted with great enthusiasm, yet things did not go as expected. The 1990 and 1992 Cup, as well as the 1992 Super Cup, were the only titles celebrated by the team until 1996.
However, in 1992-93, after struggling to make much of an impact on the European stage, Olympiacos did manage to reach the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup Winners Cup, losing to Club Atletico de Madrid.
In 1993, Olympiacos came into the hands of Sokratis Kokkalis. In 1996, Kokkalis bought Dušan Bajević from arch-rivals AEK. Olympiacos' era of domination began with the addition of players like Predrag Đorđević and Stelios Giannakopoulos to the already rich team squad, which included names like Karapialis, Alexandris, Georgatos, Refik Šabanadžović and others.
The championship drought came to an end in 1996-97, when Olympiacos won the first of seven consecutive league titles up to 2002-03, with the best season being 1998-99, when the team celebrated the double and their qualification for the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League – before losing to Juventus FC -, their best-ever European performance.
Since 1997, Olympiacos had played its home games at the Athens Olympic Stadium, but a few years later the. Karaiskakis stadium was demolished, and in 2004 the new, ultramodern football stadium opened its doors to the team.
In 2005-2009, Olympiacos won 5 consecutive championships, 4 Cups (2005, 2006, 2008, 2009) and 4 doubles, while the team performed well in UEFA competitions.
2010 +
In 2010, Olympiacos came into the hands of Vaggelis Marinakis, a strong supporter of team; a man nurtured on the ideals of Olympiacos.
2010 +
During his first year of presidency, Olympiacos were crowned Greek champions, the result of a successful transfer season.
In addition, the President, being socially sensitive, has incorporated into the club's strategy a social responsibility programme, with actions and initiatives that aim to provide help to people in need.
In an effort to extend these activities at an international level, Vaggelis Marinakis undertook the "Match Against Poverty" initiative, organised in conjunction with the United Nations, to help the victims of Haiti and Pakistan, as well as assisting "Argo", the Navy Union for children with special needs and the homeless and disadvantaged communities in Piraeus.
Olympiacos's superiority, compared to his opponents, was clear throughout the whole of the 2010-11 season. As a result, our team celebrated the championship, for the 38th time in its long history. That season closed with a magnificent festivity, worthy of our club's name and history.
With Ernesto Valverde on the bench for yet another season, Olympiacos seemed ready to walk once again down the path of success and titles. Our team was reinforced with the addition of new players, alongside those who were already part of it. Olympiacos came back to the UEFA Champions League and this season would deliver some great nights; UEFA Europa League games included, as our team performed superbly there too.
During the last season (2011-12), Olympiacos proved once again that the distance between the Champions and the rest of the clubs participating in the Greek Championship, is far too great. Our team played good football, managed to have the expected results and was therefore, once again, Champion. But all the success was not enough to hold back Erenesto Valverde, who, despite it all, decided to say "goodbye" at the end of the season. Olympiacos managed to overcome every "obstacle" in its way and made it to the Greek Cup Final as well. They defeated Atromitos, at the Olympic Stadium of Athens (OAKA), won the title and celebrated their 15th Double in total!
Our team's European campaign was exceptional, including an away victory against Marseille, a victory against BVB Dortmund at home and the "submission" of Arsenal F.C. by a 3-1 score at the "G. Karasikakis" stadium, were some of the great results Olympiacos had this season in the Champions League. Our team played equally as well in the UEFA Europa League and it was because of minor details that it didn't make it to the round of "8".
At the end of the last season, the chapter "Ernesto Valverde", for our team, came to an end. Leaving our team's bench, the Spanish coach also left behind… titles and friends! He was replaced by Leonardo Jardhim. The Portuguese head coach joined the side in summer 2012, but didn't finish the campaign with Olympiacos, leading the club management to search looking for this "particular" quality required of the person sitting on the bench.
The Portuguese head coach was replaced by the Spaniard MÍchel Gonzales. A top figure of the Spanish as well as European football, the former Real Madrid star and heavily honored captain took on the assignment of guiding our club on the path envisioned by Vaggelis Marinakis.
He led Olympiacos to the club's 40th championship title and also helped conquer the 26th Cup, by beating Asteras Tripolis in the final by 3-1. So, our Olympiacos managed to bring home its 16th Double, in the current campaign, prolonging thus the glorious saga of titles and honors.
The 4 stars, gracing henceforth the revered red-and-white stripped jersey right on top of the "laurel-crowned adolescent", stand for the shining proof of greatness of the team, the club and the idea behind them. This has also been our own major goal; and it was achieved! However, no one stands still in the Legend. We are already moving forward, towards new and great successes. During the 2013/14 season Olympiacos won the 41st championship title in its glorious history, in a year full of records and historic moments.
In Europe, our side, following its qualification in the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League after eliminating Benfica and Anderlecht, was triumphant in the "Georgios Karaiskakis" Stadium after winning the great Manchester United 2-0 and was just one step away from its qualification for the quarter-finals in Old Trafford; as our President pointed out, our overall display allows us "to keep on dreaming"!
Our Olympiacos and Greece's most glorious club added, in October 2013, a new meaningful page in its long history. In particular, it was when the club's cooperation with UNICEF was launched, proving that this club stands out both on the pitch and out of that. UNICEF's logo was added on the the red-and-white jersey's front and the country's largest sports organisation joined forces with UNICEF to build a better world for children in Greece and abroad. Thanks also to the contribution by Olympiacos and its President, Mr. Evangelos Marinakis, 50,000 children will receive vaccination across the world, including Greece, and will be able to foresee a better future. Since then, our Olympiacos pioneered a range of actions.
In the 2014-2015 season, our Olympiacos kept adding moments of history by its participation in that edition of the Champions League. Its wins made Europe to kneel before the grandeur of Greece's most glorious club. In this top club tournament's opening matchday for Group A', the Legend's majestic performance forced last year's finalist and Spanish champion Atletico Madrid to yield 3-2 in "Giorgos Karaiskakis" Stadium. Its next victim was Italian outfit and champion, Juventus, which beat 1-0 at home in Faliron. The Legend, at group stage closing match, beat 4-2 Swedish champion Malmo also at home in Piraeus, and thus tallied 9 points that qualified our club for the Europa League campaign, in which it was knocked out by Dnipro.
In early January, it was Portuguese head coach Vitor Pereira who replaced Michel at Olympiacos' bench. The former boasts of an impressive resume, featuring league titles with Porto, and took on to lead our Olympiacos on new paths of success. And so it was done! Our side won the double once again!
The 2015/16 campaign kicks off with Olympiacos featuring several changes since there is a new coach (Marco Silva replacing his fellow-countryman Vitor Pereira) and a group of important new players, including Argentinian star, Esteban Cambiasso. The campaign sets out and the Legend registers a line of consecutive wins breaking thus the long-standing record of Bukovi's squad (note: best start of a season). Also, our side mathematically secured the title so early (28/2/2016) like no other club before. They also went fine in their UEFA Champions League campaign beating Arsenal 3-2 in London and Dinamo Zagreb twice; the side continued then in the UEFA Europa League, despite being knocked out by Anderlecht.
The 2016/17 season brought about Olympiacos' 7th consecutive championship title, which meant its 44th in total. A significant achievement for our side since it meant tying our own 1997-2003 and 2011-2017 record. The Piraeus outfit had also an impressive spell in its UEFA Europa League campaign, in particular, since they went as far as the tournament's last 16.

Jake Sully: I see you.
Neytiri: I see you.
Jake Sully: Everything is backwards now, like out there is the true world, and in here is the dream.
Jake Sully: [to Tsu'tey] With your permission, I will speak now. You would honor me by translating.
[to the assembled Na'vi as Tsu'tey translates in Na'vi]
Jake Sully: The Sky People have sent us a message... that they can take whatever they want. That no one can stop them. Well, we will send them a message. You ride out as fast as the wind can carry you. You tell the other clans to come. Tell them Toruk Macto calls to them! You fly now, with me! My brothers! Sisters! And we will show the Sky People... that they cannot take whatever they want! And that this... this is our land!
Neytiri: You are Omaticaya now. You may make your bow from the wood of Hometree. And you may choose a woman. We have many fine women. Ninat is the best singer.
Jake Sully: I don't want Ninat.
Neytiri: Peyral is a good hunter.
Jake Sully: Yes, she is a good hunter. But I've already chosen. But this woman must also choose me.
Neytiri: [smiles] She already has.
[They kiss]
Jake Sully: Look, I know you probably don't understand this...

Jake Sully: My fault? They attacked me! How am I the bad guy?
Neytiri: Your fault! Your fault.
Jake Sully: Easy. Easy...
Neytiri: You are like a baby. Making noise, don't know what to do.
Jake Sully: Easy. Shh. Fine. Fine. If you loved your little forest friends... why not let them kill my ass? What's the thinking?
Neytiri: Why save you?
Jake Sully: Yeah. Yeah, why save me?
Neytiri: You have a strong heart. No fear. But stupid! Ignorant like a child!
[Neytiri walks away and Jake follows after her]
Jake Sully: Well, if I'm like a child, then look, maybe you should teach me.
Neytiri: Sky People cannot learn, you do not See.
Jake Sully: Then teach me how to See.
Neytiri: No one can teach you to See.
Dr. Grace Augustine: So you just figured you'd come here, to the most hostile environment known to men, with no training of any kind, and see how it went? What was going through your head?
Jake Sully: Maybe I was sick of doctors telling me what I couldn't do.
Jake Sully: Neytiri calls me skxawng. It means "moron."
Jake Sully: [Narrating] Outcast. Betrayer. Alien. I was in the place the eye does not see. I needed their help. And they needed mine. But to ever face them again, I was gonna have to take it to a whole new level.
Moat: It is hard to fill a cup that is already full.
Jake Sully: My cup is empty. Trust me. Just ask Dr. Augustine. I'm no scientist.
Moat: Then what are you?
Jake Sully: I was a marine. A warrior... of the uh... Jarhead Clan.
Jake Sully: [as Jake pleads for Eywa's help in attacking the "Sky People"] If Grace is there with you - look in her memories - she can show you the world we come from. There's no green there. They killed their Mother, and they're gonna do the same here. More Sky People are gonna come. They're gonna come like a rain that never ends. Unless we stop them. They chose me for something. I will stand and fight. You know I will. But I need a little help here.
Neytiri: Our great mother does not take sides, Jake; she protects the balance of life.
Jake Sully: It was worth a try.
Jake Sully: [Narrating] The way I had it figured, Toruk's the baddest cat in the sky. Nothing attacks him. So why would he ever look up? That was just a theory.
Neytiri: Now you choose your ikran. This you must feel inside. If he also chooses you, move quick like I showed. You will have one chance, Jake.
Jake Sully: How will I know if he chooses me?
Neytiri: He will try to kill you.
Jake Sully: [deadpan] Outstanding.
Moat: It is decided. My daughter will teach you our ways. Learn well, "Jakesully", and we will see if your insanity can be cured.
Trudy Chacon: [the instrumentation is going haywire, flying through clouds] Looks like we're VFR from here on.
Norm Spellman: What's VFR?
Trudy Chacon: It means you gotta see where you're goin'.
Norm Spellman: But you can't see anything.
Trudy Chacon: [laughing] Yeah, ain't that a bitch.
Jake Sully: [to his ikran on their first flight] Shut up and fly straight!
Neytiri: It is Toruk, Last Shadow.
Jake Sully: Yeah, right. It's the last one you'll ever see.
[last lines]
Jake Sully: Well, uh, I guess this is my last video log. Whatever happens tonight, either way, I'm not gonna be comin' back to this place. Well, I guess I better go. I don't wanna be late for my own party. It's my birthday, after all. This is Jake Sully signin' off.
[Grace's last lines]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Jake...
Jake Sully: [takes her hand, speaks hopefully] Grace...?
Dr. Grace Augustine: I'm with Her now, Jake. She is real...
Col. Quaritch: You are not in Kansas anymore. You are on Pandora, ladies and gentlemen. Respect that fact every second of every day. If there is a Hell, you might wanna go there for some R & R after a tour on Pandora. Out there beyond that fence every living thing that crawls, flies, or squats in the mud wants to kill you and eat your eyes for jujubes. We have an indigenous population of humanoids called the Na'vi. They're fond of arrows dipped in a neurotoxin that will stop your heart in one minute - and they have bones reinforced with naturally occurring carbon fiber. They are very hard to kill. As head of security, it is my job to keep you alive. I will not succeed. Not with all of you. If you wish to survive, you need to cultivate a strong, mental aptitude. You got to obey the rules: Pandora rules. Rule number one...
Jake Sully: [narrating] There's no such thing as an ex-marine. You may be out, but you never lose the attitude.
[Grace is showing pictures of the Na'vi to Jake so he remembers them]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Okay, let's run through them again.
Jake Sully: [Sees a picture] Mo'at. Dragon lady.
[Sees next picture]
Jake Sully: Eytukan.
Dr. Grace Augustine: [Says the name correctly] Ey-tu-"kahn". He's the clan leader. But she's the spiritual leader. Like a shaman.
Jake Sully: Got it.
[Sees next picture]
Jake Sully: Tah-soo-tey.
Dr. Grace Augustine: [Says the name correctly] Tsu'tey.
Jake Sully: Tsu'tey.
Dr. Grace Augustine: He'll be the next clan leader.
Jake Sully: [Sees next picture] Neytiri.
Dr. Grace Augustine: She'll be the next "Tsahik". They become a mated pair.
Jake Sully: So who's this Eywa?
Norm Spellman: Who's Eywa? Only their deity! Their goddess, maker of all living things. Everything they know! You'd know this if you've had any training whatsoever.
Jake Sully: [Shows him Neytiri's picture] Who's got a date with the chief's daughter?
Norm Spellman: Oh, come on!
Dr. Grace Augustine: [to Jake and Norm] Knock it off you two. Village life starts early.
[to Jake]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Don't do anything unusually stupid.
[Jake grins as Grace rolls her eyes at him before closing the pod]
[Mo'at walks towards Jake and Grace with a knife]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Mo'at, no!
Moat: [pleads with Jake] If you are one of us, help us!
[cuts Jake and Grace loose]
Dr. Grace Augustine: [after getting shot by Quaritch in the airship as they're flying away from the hangar] This is gonna ruin my whole day!
Neytiri: I'm with you now, Jake. We are mated for life.
Jake Sully: [to himself] What the hell are you doin', Jake?
Jake Sully: This is how it's done. When people are sittin' on shit that you want, you make 'em your enemy. Then you're justified in taking it.
Jake Sully: [Narrating] Sometimes your whole life boils down to one insane move.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Just relax and let your mind go blank. That shouldn't be too hard for you.
Jake Sully: Kiss the darkest part of my lily white...
[gets cut off]
Jake Sully: [in unfinished scene, DVD bonus material; about the Na'vi] They didn't even have a word for 'lie'.
[They find a Hammerhead Titanothere]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Don't shoot! Don't shoot. You'll piss him off.
Jake Sully: It's already pissed off.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Jake, that armor's too thick. Trust me. It's a territorial threat display. Do not run or he'll charge.
Jake Sully: What do I do? Dance with it?
Dr. Grace Augustine: Just hold your ground.
[the Hammerhead Titanothere charges and Jake run towards him and yells to scare him. He goes away once seeing the Thanator]
Jake Sully: Ha, ha! Yeah, come on! What you got! Oh yeah, who's bad? That's right. Yeah, that's what I'm talkin' about, bitch. That's right, get your punk ass back to mommy. Yeah? Yeah, you got nothin'. You keep runnin'. Why don't you bring some of your friends, huh?
[Turns around and sees an angry Thanator standing in front of him]
Jake Sully: [to Grace] What about this one? Run? Don't run? What?
Dr. Grace Augustine: Run! Definitely run!
Jake Sully: I see you, Brother... thank you.
[kills prey]
Jake Sully: Your spirit will now be with Eywa, but your body will remain for The People.
Norm Spellman: This is a very important part of it. It's not just, "I'm seeing you in front of me," it's "I see into you. I *See* you."
Jake Sully: She said all energy is only borrowed, and one day you have to give it back.
Trudy Chacon: [to the others on the airship while flying by the Hallelujah Mountains] You should see your faces!
Neytiri: My grandfather's grandfather was Toruk Macto, Rider of Last Shadow.
Jake Sully: He rode this?
Neytiri: Toruk chose him, it has only happened five times since the time of first songs.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Don't play with that. You'll go blind.
Jake Sully: I became a Marine for the hardship. Told myself that I can pass any test a man can pass. All I ever wanted was a single thing worth fighting for.
Moat: Why did you come to us?
Jake Sully: I came to learn.
Moat: We have tried to teach other sky people, it is hard to fill a cup which is already full.
Jake Sully: My cup is empty, trust me. Just ask doctor Augustine, I'm no scientist.
Moat: What are you?
Jake Sully: I was a marine, a, er, a warrior of the eh, Jarhead clan.
Tsu'tey: YOU!
[Tsu'tey pushes Jake, Neytiri exclaims]
Tsu'tey: You mated with this woman?
Dr. Grace Augustine: Oh, shit!
Trudy Chacon: What's goin' on, brother? Long time, no see.
Lock Up Trooper: Hey.
Trudy Chacon: Personally, I don't feel these tree huggin' traitors deserve steak.
Lock Up Trooper: They get steak? That's bullshit. Let me see that.
[Trudy laughs and then puts her gun to the back of the Lock Up Trooper's head as she orders him to the ground]
Trudy Chacon: Yeah, you know what that is. Down, all the way down.
Jake Sully: [while flying with his ikran] I may not be much of a horse guy, but I was born to do this.
Neytiri: To become "taronyu" hunter, you must choose your own Ikran and he must choose you.
Jake Sully: When?
Neytiri: When you are ready.
[makes a whooping sound as she flies off on her Ikran]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Is the avatar safe?
Jake Sully: Yeah, Doc, it's safe, and you are not gonna believe where I am!
Jake Sully: [speaking Na'vi] Tsu'tey, son of Ateyo, I stand before you ready to serve the Omaticya people. You are Olo'eyctan, and you are a great warrior. I can't do this without you.
Tsu'tey: Toruk Macto, I will fly with you.
Dr. Grace Augustine: [Emerging from her avatar pod] Where's my goddamn cigarette? What's wrong with this picture!
Jake Sully: All I ever wanted was a single thing worth fighting for.
Jake Sully: I was a warrior who dreamed he could bring peace. Sooner or later, though, you always wake up.
Neytiri: Eywa has heard you... Eywa has heard you!
Dr. Grace Augustine: Hey Marine!
Jake Sully: [Turns and sees Grace's Avatar] Damn. Grace?
Dr. Grace Augustine: Well who'd you expect, numbnuts?
Dr. Grace Augustine: Think fast.
[Grace throws Jake some type of purple fruit]
Dr. Grace Augustine: Motor control is looking good.
[Jake bites into fruit and chuckles excitedly]
Dr. Grace Augustine: [mortally wounded, realizing she's at the Tree of Souls] I need to get some samples.
Jake Sully: [to Grace when she interrupts his video log recording to give some extra explanation] Excuse me, this is my video log here.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Don't make me force-feed a cripple!
Col. Quaritch: A recon gyrene in an Avatar body... that's a potent mix! Gives me the goosebumps!
[first lines]
Jake Sully: [Narrating] When I was lying in the V.A. hospital with a big hole blown through the middle of my life, I started having these dreams of flying. I was free. But sooner or later, you always have to wake up.
Trudy Chacon: I was hoping for some kind of tactical plan that didn't involve martyrdom.
Jake Sully: You wanted to see me, Colonel?
Col. Quaritch: This low gravity'll make you soft. And when you get soft, Pandora will eat you and shit you out dead with zero warning. I read your file, Corporal. Venezuela, that was some mean bush. Nothin' like that here, though. You got some heart, kid, showin' up here.
Jake Sully: Figured it was just another hellhole.
Jake Sully: You have to leave, or you're gonna die!
Moat: Are you certain of this?
Jake Sully: Look, they sent me here, to learn your ways, so one day I could bring this message, and that you would believe it.
Neytiri: What are you saying, Jake? You knew this would happen?
Jake Sully: Yes. Look, at first, it was just orders, and then, everything changed. Okay? I fell in love. I fell in love with the - with the forest, with the Omaticaya people... with you... with you...
Neytiri: [interrupting him] I trusted you...
Jake Sully: [continuing what he was saying] - with you.
Neytiri: [getting upset] I trusted you!
Jake Sully: [trying to calm her] Trust me, now. Please.
Neytiri: You will never be one of The People!
Neytiri: He tried to stop them!
Jake Sully: Neytiri, please.
[Neytiri says something in Na'vi and leaves]
Col. Quaritch: [addressing marines] Everyone on this base, every one of you, is fighting for survival, and that's a fact. There's an aboriginal horde out there massing for an attack. These orbital images tell me that the hostile numbers have gone from a few hundred, to well over two thousand in one day. And more are pourin' in. In a week's time there could be 20,000 of 'em. At that point they will overrun our perimeter. That's not gonna happen. Our only security lies in preemptive attack. We will fight terror with terror. The hostiles believe that this mountain territory is protected by their... deity. And when we destroy it, we will blast a crater in their racial memory so deep, that they won't come within 1,000 klicks of this place ever again. And that, too, is a fact.
Jake Sully: Yeah, why save me?
Neytiri: You have a strong heart, no fear. But stupid, ignorant like a child.
Trudy Chacon: [sarcastically, after she opens fire on Quaritch's Dragon Gunship] Oops.
Jake Sully: [making a video log] Do I have to do this now? Like, I really need to get some rack.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Yes, now, while it's still fresh.
Jake Sully: Okay, uh... location: shack.
Dr. Max Patel: Grace, this is Jake Sully.
Jake Sully: Ma'am.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Yeah, yeah, I know who you are and I don't need you. I need your brother. You know, the PhD who trained for 3 years for this mission.
Jake Sully: He's dead. I know it's a big inconvenience for everyone.
Dr. Grace Augustine: How much lab training have you had?
Jake Sully: I dissected a frog once.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Ya see, ya see? They're just pissing on us without even giving us the courtesy of calling it rain. I'm going to Selfridge.
Dr. Max Patel: Grace. No, I don't think...
Dr. Grace Augustine: No, man, this is such bullshit! Gonna kick his corporate butt. He has no business sticking his nose in *my* department.
Jake Sully: Give it up, Quaritch! It's all over.
Col. Quaritch: [from inside the Amp suit] Nothin's over while I'm breathin'.
Jake Sully: I kinda hoped you'd say that.
Jake Sully: [Narrating] In cryo, you don't dream at all. It doesn't *feel* like six years - more like a fifth of Tequila and an ass kicking. Tommy was a scientist, not me. He was the one who wanted to get shot light years out in space to find the answers.
Jake Sully: Are we there yet?
Cryo Vault Med Tech: Yeah, we're there sunshine... We're there.
[Scene changes to morgue]
Suit #2: It's about your brother...
Jake Sully: [Narrating] So a week before he was about to ship out... a guy with a gun ends his journey... for the paper in his wallet.
Cryo Vault Med Tech: You've been in cryo for five years, nine months and twenty-two days. You will be hungry, you will be weak. If you feel nausea, please use the...
Jake Sully: [Narrating] Yeah, Tommy was the scientist. Me? I'm just another dumb grunt goin' some place he's gonna regret.
Trudy Chacon: We're goin' up against gunships with bows and arrows.
Jake Sully: Well, I guess we better stop 'em.
Col. Quaritch: Shut your pie hole!
Dr. Grace Augustine: Or what, *Ranger Rick*? You gonna shoot me?
Col. Quaritch: I can do that.
Dr. Grace Augustine: [to Selfridge] Those trees were sacred to the Omaticaya in a way you can't imagine.
Selfridge: You know what? You throw a stick in the air around here it falls on some sacred fern, for Christ's sake!
Dr. Grace Augustine: I'm not talking about pagan voodoo here - I'm talking about something REAL and measurable in the biology of the forest.
Selfridge: Which is *what* exactly?
Dr. Grace Augustine: What we think we know - is that there's some kind of electrochemical communication between the roots of the trees. Like the synapses between neurons. Each tree has ten to the fourth connections to the trees around it, and there are ten to the twelfth trees on Pandora...
Selfridge: That's a lot, I'm guessing.
Dr. Grace Augustine: That's more connections than the human brain. You get it? It's a network - a global network. And the Na'vi can access it - they can upload and download data - memories - at sites like the one you just destroyed.
Selfridge: [after a stunned pause] What the HELL have you people been smoking out there?
[beginning to laugh]
Selfridge: They're just. Goddamn. Trees.
Dr. Grace Augustine: You need to wake up, Parker. The wealth of this world isn't in the ground - it's all around us. The Na'vi know that, and they're fighting to defend it. If you wanna share this world with them, *you* need to understand *them*.
Col. Quaritch: I think we understand them just fine. Thanks to Jake here.
[Jake and Grace share a look of horror as Quaritch begins to play Jake's video log]
Jake Sully: [narrating] Up ahead was Pandora. You grew up hearing about it, but I never figured I'd be goin' there.
Neytiri: Sky People cannot learn, they do not see.
Neytiri: Toruk Macto was mighty. He brought the clans together in a time of great sorrow. All Na'vi people know this story.
Col. Quaritch: Son, I take care of my own. You get me what I need, I make sure that when you rotate home, you get your legs back, your real legs.
Jake Sully: That sounds real good, sir.
Trudy Chacon: [Last line as she gets hit by missiles from Quaritch's Dragon Gunship] Rogue One is hit. I'm goin' in. Sorry Jake.
Jake Sully: [Narrating] Learning to ride an ikran - we call 'em banshees - is a test every young hunter has to pass. But to do that, you gotta go where the banshees are. Boo-rah.
Jake Sully: [collector's extended cut] You want a fair deal? You're on the wrong planet. The strong prey on the weak, it's just the way things are. And nobody does a damned thing.
Jake Sully: The aliens went back to their dying home. Only a few were chosen to stay.
Trudy Chacon: I'm Trudy. I fly all the science sorties. And this here, is my baby.
[tapping on the her helicopter with her hand]
Trudy Chacon: Hold on a second.
[throws clip board into helicopter]
Trudy Chacon: [to Wainfleet, who is installing the gun rack to hold the door gun] Hey, Wainfleet. Get it done. We bounce at zero-nine.
Corporal Lyle Wainfleet: Yeah, I'm on it, Capitan.
Trudy Chacon: The hind strake's still losoe.
Jake Sully: You guys are packin' some heavy gear.
Trudy Chacon: [to the driver of a vehicle that almost hit Jake] Watch it! Yeah, that's because we're not the only thing flyin' around out there. Or the biggest. I'm gonna need you on a door gun, I'm a man short.
Jake Sully: I thought you'd never ask.
Trudy Chacon: There's your man.
[pointing to Quaritch]
Trudy Chacon: See you on the flight line.
[Trudy and Jake fist bump each other before she walks away]
Trudy Chacon: [Trudy decides not to fire her missiles] Screw this.
Corporal Lyle Wainfleet: What-what the hell are you doing?
Trudy Chacon: I didn't sign up for this shit!
[flies away]
Col. Quaritch: I want this mission high and tight. I wanna be home for dinner.
Jake Sully: [Narrating] I was a stone cold aerial hunter, death from above. Only problem is, you're not the only one.
Trudy Chacon: You're not the only one with a gun, bitch.
[after finding out that Jake has destroyed the cameras on the one of the dozers, Quaritch kills the link for Grace and Jake]
Jake Sully: [Jake emerges from the link] Are you out of your goddamn mind?
Col. Quaritch: You crossed the line.
[Quaritch punches Jake in the face, knocking him out]
Col. Quaritch: [to one of the soldiers] Wheel this meat outta here.
Col. Quaritch: [a short time later] You let me down son! So, you find yourself some local tail, and you just completely forget what team you're playin' for?
Col. Quaritch: That is one big damn tree!
Jake Sully: [narrating] One life ends, another begins.
Corporal Lyle Wainfleet: [Jake gets down from the ship with a gun. Wainfleet follows]
Dr. Grace Augustine: [to Wainfleet] Stay with the ship. One idiot with a gun is enough.
Corporal Lyle Wainfleet: You the man, Doc.
Jake Sully: I need your help.
Neytiri: You should not be here.
Neytiri: No! Go back!
Jake Sully: [Narrating] Sooner or later, though, you always have to wake up.
Selfridge: Look. You're supposed to be winning the hearts and minds of the natives. Isn't that the whole point of your little puppet show? If you walk like them, you talk like them, they'll trust you. We build them a school, teach them English. But after - how many years - the relations with the indigenous are only getting worse.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Yeah, well that tends to happen when you use machine guns on them.
Selfridge: Right. C'mere. You see this?
[shows Grace the sample of Unobtanium on his desk]
Selfridge: This is why we're here. Because this little gray rock sells for $20 million a kilo. That's the only reason. This is what pays for the whole party, and it's what pays for your science. Those savages are threatening our whole operation. We're on the brink of war and you're supposed to be finding me a diplomatic solution. So use what you've got, and get me some results.
Tsu'tey: [speaking in Na'vi] You see? It is a demon in a false body.
Dragon Gunship Navigator: We are gonna lose some paint in here.
Jake Sully: [collector's extended cut] I became a marine for the hardship, to be hammered on the anvil of life. I told myself I can pass any test a man can pass.
Jake Sully: Who's got a date with the chief's daughter?
Selfridge: [In the tech room, Selfridge putts a golf ball into a mug and laughs] You see that?
Worker: Yes sir!
Selfridge: No you didn't, you were looking at the monitor. I love this putter, Ronnie! I love this putter!
Dr. Grace Augustine: Parker. You know, I used to think it was benign neglect, but now I see that you are intentionally screwing me.
Selfridge: Grace, you know, I enjoy our little talks.
[He putts the ball again, it's about to go in the mug but Grace kicks the mug away]
Dr. Grace Augustine: [Deadpan] Oops.
Col. Quaritch: [after Jake has failed to get the Omaticaya to evacuate] Well, well, well. I'd say diplomacy has failed.
[after Jake enters his avatar body]
Dr. Max Patel: Jake! Listen to me! You're not used to your avatar body. This is dangerous!
Jake Sully: [excited] This is great!
Jake Sully: [on video log] They're not gonna give up their home. They're not gonna make a deal.
Jake Sully: For-for what? A light beer and blue jeans? There's nothing that we have that they want. Everything they sent me out here to do is a waste of time. They're never gonna leave Hometree.
Col. Quaritch: So since a deal *can't* be made, I guess things get *real* simple.
Col. Quaritch: Jake, thanks. I'm gettin' all emotional. Might just give you a big wet kiss!
Col. Quaritch: I'll do it with minimal casualties to the indigenous. I'll drive 'em out with gas first. It'll be humane. More or less.
Selfridge: Alright, let's pull the trigger.
Col. Quaritch: Hey Sully... how does it feel to betray your own race? You think you're one of them? Time to wake up!
Jake Sully: I'm just saying if you love your little forest friends, then why not just let them kill my ass?
Neytiri: Why save you?
Jake Sully: Yeah, why save me, what's the thinking?
Neytiri: You have a strong heart, no fear. But stupid! Like baby, don't know what to do.
Col. Quaritch: Look, Sully, I want you to learn this savages from the inside, I want you to gain their trust. I need to know how to force their cooperation or hammer them hard if they won't.
Col. Quaritch: And that's how you scatter the roaches.
Dr. Max Patel: Come back at 0800. Use big words.
Dr. Grace Augustine: Why should they help us?
Jake Sully: I just want to say thanks for killing those things.
Neytiri: Don't thank. You don't thank for this. This is sad. Very sad only.
Jake Sully: Okay, okay. I'm sorry. Whatever I did, I'm sorry!
Neytiri: All this is your fault, they did not need to die.
Col. Quaritch: You haven't got lost in the woods, have ya? Your last report was more than 2 weeks *ago*. I'm startin' to doubt your resolve! The way I see it, it's time to terminate the mission.
Jake Sully: I can do this.
Col. Quaritch: You already have. You gave me good, usable intel on this Tree of Souls place. Yeah, I got them by the balls with that when this turns into a shit fight - which it will. Now it's time to come in. By the way, you gon' get your legs back. Yeah. I got you corporate approval. Gonna have you on a shuttle tonight. I'm a man of my word.
Jake Sully: I gotta finish this. There's one more thing. A ceremony. It's uh, it's the final stage of becoming a man. If I do it, I'm one of them. Now trust me. And I can negotiate the terms of their relocation.
Col. Quaritch: [as he gets up to leave] Well, then you betta get it done, Corporal.
Col. Quaritch: Mask on!
Jake Sully: If it ain't raining, we ain't training.
Jake Sully: Are you out of your goddamn mind?
Col. Quaritch: You crossed the line!
[punches Jake in the face]
Corporal Lyle Wainfleet: [seeing Jake in a wheelchair] Aww, man, that is just wrong.
Jake Sully: Trust me now.
Selfridge: Look at all that Cheddar.

How To Care For Your New Bed & Mattress
?If your mattress is over 10 years old ... it is no longer a mattress!?
If your bed is more than 10 years old, it may not be functioning at its optimal level. The durability of a bed is affected by a number of factors such as the quality of the mattress and base, the amount of use it gets, the weight of its occupants and, of course, the way you care for it. The average person spends around a third of his or her life in bed. It is therefore important that you not only purchase a quality bed that is right for you, but you also take care of it.
To ensure you get the most out of your new bed or mattress, its quality is maintained and its life prolonged there are a number of points to remember:
?make sure your mattress and foundation are properly installed in your home
?be sure to use a sturdy high quality bed frame for your new mattress
?turn your mattress from end to end and side to side every week for the first few months and then every other month (unless it?s a special ?no-turn? mattress which should simply be rotated head to toe)
?vacuum clean your mattress periodically to remove dust and fluff
?air your mattress once a month (or throw back the bed clothes for 20 minutes in the mornings before you make the bed to allow body moisture to evaporate)
?abide by the care instructions that came with your mattress or bed
?regularly check that fittings on the bed are tight
?use a good quality, washable, protective cover to keep your mattress and pillows free from stains
?bend or roll your mattress ? this can cause irreparable damage
?sit on the edge of your mattress for a long period of time
?walk or jump on your mattress or bed
?let children use your mattress as a trampoline
?overload or overfill storage drawers with weighty or bulky items
?over soak a mattress or base when tackling stains (use a dry absorbent cloth or if necessary, a mild detergent with only a little water)
?leave any polythene wrappings on a new mattress
?remove the tag (the information will serve as a means of identification should you have a guarantee claim)
?take a good night?s sleep for granted!
At Absolute Beds our beds are made from the finest natural materials so a little consideration to your sleeping investment will ensure your new purchase has a happy prolonged life.

Former Miami Dolphins players Ronnie Brown and Greg Camarillo are participating in the NFL's ninth annual broadcasting boot camp.
The four-day workshop started Monday, June 1, at NFL Films in Mount Laurel, N.J.
Brown and Camarillo are among 24 current and former players attending the boot camp, including New York Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie and retired Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Ike Taylor.
Brown spent the first six seasons of his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins after being drafted No. 2 overall out of Auburn in 2005. He had a solid career as a running back, but never lived up to the expectations of a No. 2 pick. He is best known for his role in...

Another convert for Mini's Favorite 100% Rye
Although blogging has taken a back seat to other activities, I have been baking in the background. It's just that none of those have made the leap from the kitchen to the Web. And, frankly, most of them were old favorites and I really didn't have anything new to say about them, except for yum!
This weekend, though, was different. My wife has decided to make some dietary changes, with the objective of greatly reducing the GI loads of the things she eats. On the one hand, that means eliminating a lot of foods that are either sugary or constituted primarily of simple carbohydrates and replacing them with foods that contribute either higher protein content or complex carbohydrates. So, when she had a package of 100% rye bread in her hand while shopping this weekend, I said "I can make that at home. And I can use sourdough, which will make it even better for you." All true but highly optimistic, considering some of my recent sorties into high-rye land.
Back at the house, groceries unloaded and put away, I made a bee-line for TFL and started looking at the accumulated wisdom and experience regarding 100% rye breads. Of the various possibilities, Mini's Favorite 100% Rye was most appealing to me so I started the mise en place Friday evening. First up was to prepare the rye sour. Keep in mind that I pitched my old starter some weeks back and began another. So, while potent with yeast, the new starter is still fairly mild in flavor. It would have to do. Next up (although not in Mini's original formula) was a soaker consisting of 100g each of cracked rye and boiling water. Still another addition, a sunflower seed soaker consisting of "some" (about a handful) sunflower seeds and enough cool water to cover. Yeah, yeah, I know, always measure for repeatability. I was off the page at that point, anyway, so measurements didn't seem too important. After that, off to bed.
The next morning, I toasted the bread spices in a skillet on the stove top and ground them. Not knowing the exact formulation, I guesstimated that 2 tablespoons of coriander seed and 1 tablespoon each of caraway and fennel seeds should do. Oh, my, the house smelled wonderful! From previous experience, I knew to keep an eye on the fennel seeds; they start out with a greenish cast and turn a golden brown when ready. The caraway and coriander start out a tan/brown color, so they aren't as helpful in indicating when they are done. It is important to give the seeds a shake every minute or so to prevent scorching.
From there, it was a matter of combining the starter, the water, the spices, the cracked rye soaker, the (drained) sunflower seed soaker, and rye flour. It's a bit of a stretch to refer to a 100% rye dough as "dough". Wet mortar seems to have a closer similarity to this stuff than any dough based on wheat flour. Anyway, the ingredients were thoroughly mixed, covered with plastic wrap, and left in the sunshine on our stoep. We're seeing the first signs of Spring here in Pretoria and the sunny stoep was warmer than my kitchen.
An hour later, I brought the bowl back in, troweled the dough onto a wet countertop and worked in the salt, per Mini's recommendation. The dough was put back in the bowl, covered, and set back out in the warmth of the sunshine. At the 3-hour mark, the mortar/dough was showing some aeration, which indicated that the starter was at work.
Since the cooking gear available to me is a bit different than Mini's, I elected to split the dough into two loaves and bake each in a 4x8 (inches) loaf pan. Those fit neatly into a covered roasting pan, giving me the steam chamber that Mini devised by flipping one pot upside down on top of the other. Having oiled the pans and dusted them with rye flour, I brought the dough in, divided it into two pieces, shaped each, and gently tamped them into the waiting loaf pans. Each pan was approximately half full, giving me a reference point for gauging their eventual expansion. Just to be sure that I didn't miss anything, I also lightly sprinkled the loaves' surface with rye flour, knowing that the resulting cracks in the flour would be another indicator that the dough was rising. After that, I covered each loaf pan with plastic, put them in the roasting pan, covered it, and set the whole shebang back out in the sunshine.
Two and a half hours later, or five and a half hours into the process, the loaves had filled the pans about 3/4 full, which was about a 50% expansion. The top was a network of dark fissures in the lighter rye flour. After debating the merits of allowing further fermentation/expansion versus the possibility of over-proofing, I decided to err on the side of caution and bake the bread. I did remember to remove the plastic wrap (whew!) from the loaf pans before sliding the roaster into the oven. I also chose to sprinkle a tablespoon or so of water in the floor of the roasting pan, just to add some more steam. Maybe that helped, maybe not.
Per Mini's instructions, the bread went into a cold oven, then spent the first 25 minutes at 200C in convection mode. After that, I took the roaster out of the oven, pulled the loaf pans from the roaster and put them back in the oven, then switched the oven from convection mode to a top and bottom heat mode, still at 200C. Not knowing exactly how long they would take to reach the recommended internal temperature of 93C, I checked back in 20 minutes. The internal temperature was barely 91C, so I gave them an additional 5 minutes. At that point, the thermometer showed 94C, so I removed the bread from the oven and depanned the loaves onto a cooling rack, covering them with a cotton towel. A few hours later, after they were thoroughly cooled, I put each in a plastic bag.
If you read Mini's account and compare it to this one, you'll notice that the added soakers and the division into two loaves are not my only departures from her formula. She is working with a finely ground rye flour (Type 950, I think) that, back in the States, I might call a medium rye. What I have available is a stone ground whole rye with noticeable flecks of bran. I think that my dough was a bit stiffer than she describes hers, probably because of the additional absorption of the bran. Consequently, I wasn't bashful about working additional water in from either the countertop or my hands.
Having given the bread 25 hours to for moisture distribution and stabilization, I cut into one of the loaves this afternoon. Several things became evident. First, I could have allowed the ferment to continue longer. These are not bricks but neither did they achieve the airiness of crumb that Mini's bread shows. My concern about over-proofing made me a little too twitchy. I think that is going to be one of those experience things (with probably at least one flop) to know how much is enough and how much is too much. Second, the bread spices that were so evident during the baking have taken a backseat to the rye itself in the finished bread. They are still in there, but they are the background singers to the rye's lead (if we were talking music). The sunflower seeds add a bit of nutty crunch and flavor to the blend. The crumb is very moist and cool but not gluey. Were it not for the textures of the the cracked rye and sunflower seed soakers, it would be almost cakelike; albeit a very dense and chewy cake. There's a lot going on in this bread and it's only Day 1. I'm curious to see how the flavors evolve as the bread ages. Most importantly, my wife likes it! Since it was intended for her benefit, that's a good thing.
The first picture, below, shows the loaf profile and crumb. Like I said, not a brick but more proofing would have been allowable.
The second picture, below, shows the "crackle" texture in the flour sprinkled on top that was caused by the loaf's expansion during proofing.
There are things that I might do differently next time. I'd probably skip the rye flour dusting in the loaf pans and use a solid fat instead of oil. The oil/flour residue on the sides of the loaves isn't visually appealing to me. I might also skip the dusting of flour on top of the loaves. It was my choice rather than anything Mini recommended and I don't know that it helped me to ascertain readiness as much as I had hoped. Oh, and I would try to remember to dock the loaves prior to baking. That step got left out entirely and it was probably only because the loaves were somewhat underproofed that I don't see any problems as a result.
Thank you, Mini, for sharing your formula with us. Once I feel like I have a handle on this bread, I'd like to try some that have a very long, low-temperature bake to see if I can approximate a pumpernickel that is baked in a WFO overnight.

Two recent studies help shed new light on the risks of anal cancer among men living with HIV -- a growing concern among our patients, particularly for men who have sex with men.
The first study, which was published ahead of print in the online edition of JAIDS, found that for men living with HIV, having and sustaining an undetectable viral load reduced the risk of developing anal cancer.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs analyzed patient data from 1985 to 2009. In total, they collected data on 45,231 HIV-infected men spanning 307,495 person-years. They compared the differences between men who had received HIV treatment and those who were treatment-naive, looking in particular at the incidence rate of squamous cell cancer of the anus (SCCA). Overall, they found 377 cases of anal cancer.
Key findings include:
"This is the first large cohort study to demonstrate that maintaining undetectable viral load independently decreases the incidence of SCCA above and beyond other known SCCA risk factors," the researchers wrote, according to aidsmap.com.
These results are limited by the study's retrospective design. The study also did not focus on men who have sex with men, the group with the highest rates of anal cancer among people living with HIV. But it nonetheless provides still another reason for patients to start and adhere to antiretroviral treatment.
"I think that other studies and ours have shown a very strong effect on anal cancer risk from low nadir CD4 counts," lead study author Elizabeth Chiao, M.D., M.P.H., told TheBodyPRO.com. "In our study, we used a CD4 count above 350 as a cutoff. We can't really say from our analysis that treatment regardless of CD4 count decreases risk, but there certainly is a strong implication that higher is better."
Chiao also pointed out four other ways to help prevent anal cancer for men living with HIV: quitting smoking; getting routine anal cancer screenings; decreasing exposure to high-risk HPV (human papillomavirus); and getting the HPV vaccine (Gardasil) if under the age of 26.
Joel Palefsky, M.D., one of the leading experts in HIV, HPV and anal cancer, found the results encouraging, but expressed some caution. He compared the study's SCCA incidence rate of about 147 cases per 100,000 person-years to the current incidence rate of cervical cancer in women, which is approximately 8 cases per 100,000 person-years.
"Even with the people who have the sustained reduction in viral load, the rates of anal cancer are still way too high. My concern here is that people don't say, 'I've had an undetectable viral load for a long time. I don't need to worry about it,'" he told TheBodyPRO.com.
The second study, which was published ahead of print in the online edition of AIDS, found that high-grade, pre-cancerous lesions were more likely to spontaneously regress than progress to cancer.
Some quick context: Anal cancer is caused by high-risk strains of HPV. It is preceded by high-grade pre-cancerous anal lesions, also known as high-grade anal squamous intraepithelial lesions (ASILs). These high-grade ASILs are classified into grade-2 anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN2) or grade-3 anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN3), both of which are considered high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN).
Researchers from St. Vincent's Hospital in Sydney, Australia, analyzed data on 574 men who had received an anal Pap smear or high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) from 2004 to 2011. About three quarters were living with HIV; they had a median CD4+ cell count of 500 and about 84% had an undetectable viral load.
Key findings are as follows:
"Our data provide reassurance that high-grade ASILs diagnosed at any one point are much more likely to spontaneously regress than progress to cancer. Not all patients with high-grade ASILs warrant treatment," wrote the study authors, according to aidsmap.com.
"Our data support current guidelines that recommend any abnormality on anal cytology warrants further investigation with HRA, as two of four incident anal cancers had only low grade cytology a short time before the diagnosis of cancer," the authors added.
While the high rates of spontaneous regression of pre-cancerous anal lesions are promising, they don't tell the full story. The researchers hope to conduct future studies to identify risk factors and biomarkers that may predict the highest risk of progression to anal cancer.
However, Palefsky again expressed caution over the results. "I'm a little concerned people will misconstrue these findings, because they only followed people for one year and cancer takes many years to progress. Even in this one-year period, two people out of 101 [who had HGAIN] progressed to cancer. That's enormous," he told TheBodyPRO.com.
"The other thing that's concerning is that you very rarely see a study where they show that people lost their HPV. If the HPV is still there, then it's just waiting to turn into a high-grade lesion," Palefsky added.
In terms of anal cancer prevention methods, Palefsky echoed Chiao's recommendation of routine anal cancer screenings, if available, particularly for all HIV-infected men and women under 30. If anal cytology and HRA are not available, "At a minimum, do an annual digital anal rectal exam, where the care provider would be putting their finger in and feeling for hard lumps that might be diagnostic of cancer. So, at least, if there's a cancer there already, it'll be picked up as early as possible."
Palefsky also recommended close communication with the patient about potential lesions. "Talk to the patient," he urged. "There are certain signs we worry about -- when people tell us, for instance, that they have a rapidly growing lump down there, particularly if that lump is associated with pain, because pain can sometimes be a sign of cancer. If they get a good history from their patient and know what's going on, that should also potentially alert them to the possibilities that this could be cancer."
Overall, both studies give clinicians more insight into how to handle concerns over anal cancer, including how to help prevent and identify risk factors. This research provides some welcome news while we await future studies to help clarify what further steps to take.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2013, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Rest easy, those of you booked into the Salt Lake County Jail between Jan. 11 and Jan. 27.
Your mug shots won't be released en masse to the Texas-based founder of bustedmugshots.com, an Internet site that publishes jail booking photos collected from law enforcement agencies.
The Salt Lake County Council decided Tuesday that County Sheriff Jim Winder was justified in rejecting Kyle Prall's request for all 1,388 mug shots taken during that 17-day period (including three weekends). The nine members unanimously endorsed his position that the photographs were classified as "protected records" under terms of the Copyright Act of 1976.
Prall had asked the council to overturn the sheriff's rejection of his request for the pictures via the Government Records Access Management Act (GRAMA). Through attorney David Reimann, he contended the mug shots were "important pieces of information" in the public record and that "GRAMA would be gutted" if government agencies are allowed to declare copyrights on almost every document they produce.
But the council accepted Deputy District Attorney David Johnson's argument that Prall who did not attend the hearing but apparently attempted unsuccessfully to participate over the telephone was exaggerating the threat to the open records concept.
Mug shots are still part of the public record, with a process for their release when requests are made in writing, he said. But the agency is not obligated to make them available in bulk upon demand.
Booking photographs were available to the public on the sheriff's website until Jan. 10, when Winder announced a policy change designed to keep newspapers and Internet sites from publishing them, then charging people to get their pictures removed.
The sheriff went a step further after Prall submitted his request Jan. 25, reclassifying booking photographs as protected copyrighted works.
"Prall essentially asserts that a government entity is forever bound by its initial classification of a record under GRAMA," Johnson advised the council. "Fortunately, GRAMA imposes no such burden on governmental entities, but allows them to re-evaluate and redesignate a record at any time, as the Sheriff's Office did here."
Although Reimann said the council's decision on a GRAMA matter should not "discriminate against people requesting records based on who they are and what they want to use them for," his point failed to impress Councilman David Wilde.
"I don't like what Mr. Prall does," he said, making the motion to support the sheriff's denial of the mug-shot release. The other eight councilmen swiftly agreed.

Thanks, Gov
The County Council formally applauded Gov. Gary Herbert for his rejection last week of an agreement with Nevada to share water from the aquifer beneath the Snake Valley along the state line.
"He deserves a great deal of credit … for a bold decision," said Councilman Jim Bradley, citing Salt Lake County's longtime opposition to the plan to pump water from the desert basin to Las Vegas. County officials believe the result would be increased dust from the west desert that would intensify air quality problems along the Wasatch Front and damage skiing in the Cottonwood canyons.

Jaguar XKR-S Convertible review
* 542bhp open-top Jaguar reviewed * Car launched at LA motor show * Price from 103,000...
What is it? The Jaguar XKR-S coupe came out earlier this year and was a spiced-up version of the already-spicy XKR. This is the open-top model, which is powered by the same 542bhp 5.0-litre supercharged V8 and has the same modifications.
The XKR-S Convertible has the same visual enhancements a more assertive chin spoiler being the most notable one and the same chassis changes, including stiffer springs, uprated steering, electronic changes to the shock absorbers, wider tyres and lighter wheels. All of this is in the aid of making it go quicker and dialling up the excitement. Its no mean feat for what is already one of the most thrilling soft-tops on the market.
What's it like to drive? We had a brief go in a pre-production car in Los Angeles, which had arrived fresh from testing at the Nurburgring race track in Germany and had the battle scars to prove it.
Nevertheless, it was representative enough for us to tell that it feels far more aggressive, faster and louder than the standard soft-top XKR. Its crisper through bends, too, although the pay-off is a stiffer, less settled ride that came through even on smooth American roads.
It's loud, though; full throttle with the roof down is an intoxicating experience, and the way it gathers pace makes even an XKR feel tepid.
The gearchange and engine responses feel more urgent, too, and it changes direction quicker and feels more agile. The noise and the ride quality, however make it less appealing when you just want to relax, make steady process and enjoy the fresh air.
What's it like inside? The cabin is less changed than the exterior, but there was little wrong with it in the first place: this is a glamorous, well-made and practical sports car. The seats and driving position are superb, and so is the build quality.
Mind you, the touch-screen sat-nav is starting to look and feel its age now it should be better considering how much the car costs.
Should I buy one? A bigger question is whether it's ritzy enough to deserve a six-figure price? Or whether it may be a tad too lairy for what most customers need. The answer, we're afraid, seems to be 'no' to the first and 'yes' to the second. Sticking to a standard XKR Convertible, or even a 'normal' XK, seems to be the best solution.

Only caught the last 15min.mothing seems to have changed, it does seem we run around the field without the ball in a more stylish manner. has no useful effect but it looks good.
I'd keep the same shape and put Lookman on for the ghost on the left.
I'm more trusting of fellas when they have my cock in their mouth
What do you expect after just 90 minutes of training?To be fair, the organization is better, and there seems to be more of a plan, but much work to be done.
Can't really expect much more, it was never going to change massively with only a one and a half hour session before they left yesterday. We've a young lad making his debut and two others in midfield who've hardly featured all season (has McCarthy even played?) Mirallas hasn't exactly been tearing it up and Davies has looked short on confidence all season.It'll come together better after a few more sessions, this game can just be looked at as one of those sessions to get us playing the Unsworth wants us to.
The more this season goes on the more you realise Barkley and Lukaku were carrying that team last year. Barkley may have been frustrating as fuck but at least he wasnt scared of the football like all these lot.
