I am interested in learning the environmental factors that gave rise to such as Hitler ... he didn't become who he was because of some magic, there were political, economic and probably religious reasons he gained so much power and support of the average citizen.
He obviously had some personality characteristics that enabled him to rise to the top of the population. What was his genetic pool? His parents relationship? the political environment? economic conditions?
What economic, political, religious conditions existed in Hitler's time and how is the USA like and unlike those of the 1920s, 30s, and 40x?
Origins: of fascism, their leaders, their cultures, their genetic pools? Are there any Bonobos in human development?
"Yikes, looks like I stepped into a hornet's nest."
No, …you can't "Godwin" a thread about Hitler, …that's the point.
It's "pre-Godwin'd".
Hitler was an amateur artist.
He served in the German army in WW1 and was wounded twice and awarded the Iron Cross for bravery.
He acquired means, probably through inheritance, after the war. He joined the National Socialist German Workers (Nazi) party and soon became it's leader. He honed his oratory skills in the Beer Halls of Munich. It was a recessionary time and the communist party was vying with the S.A for control of the streets, the later, a right wing militia, gave unquestioning loyalty to Hitler and a failed coup was staged by the Nazi's and the S.A resulting in Hitlers trial and brief imprisonment during which time he wrote 'Mein Kampft', his auto-biography.
After his release from prison he decided to follow an electoral path to leadership. His National Socialism became popular among the German people and he was eventually elected to the Bundestag with his party gaining an overall majority and became Chancellor. He then made executive changes to government and effectively became a dictator.
The rest is history.
In answer to your questions Hitler considered himself to be a member of the Catholic church and believed in a supernature and after-life. He appears to have had nothing to do with his Austrian relatives. He states that he loved his mother and respected his father who was a civil servant.
There was the great depression at the time. The savior in the U.S was President Roosevelt and in Germany the savior was Hitler. Both were prepared to spend government money to alleviate hardships experienced by the populations and create employment. In both cases it worked.
That is an odd image: FDR USA's savior and Hitler German's savior. "Both prepared to spend government money to alleviate hardships experienced by the populations and create employment. In both cases it worked."
Today's problems in USA, lack of jobs, closing businesses, mortgage foreclosures, growing gap between rich and poor, religion heavy on the side of republican philosophy,
OK, given what we know so far, do we have any clues of the ways out of our quagmire?
It seems to me austerity slows down money flow, thus slowing down recovery.
If we choose a president who responds to present needs, that means "spend government money to alleviate hardships experienced by the populations and create employment". it worked then, will it now?
I think Napoleon squarely nailed it. One thing I would add is, in addition to the Great Depression, Germany was forced to sign the Versailles Treaty. Germany was compelled to accept blame for World War I, and force to pay reparations to the victors; Great Britain, but especially France - upon whose territory was the Western Front. One of the best explanations I've ever heard was done by Stanley Kramer, through Burt Lancaster's character - the jurist Ernst Janning, in the movie, Judgment at Nuremberg.
Pat, so movin; for some being awake and aware touches a nerve that cannot be stilled.
Notice now deftly I turned Hitler into an Origins topic. Words, just words.
Here is my personal attempt to explain, why the Nazi ideology was so widely accepted by the German population. This is from my blog:
What was it about Germans and Braun that they could make the rocket function? Do you suppose the opposite of rockets and bombs is inferential statistics used to develop a global economy that works for everyone?

Indie Beats 3-D 'Titanic' at Mainland Box Office
Chinese comedy "Lost in Thailand" is now the highest-grossing mainland film in history and is the first local production to break the one-billion-yuan ($160.4-million) mark at the box office. The WSJ's Dean Napolitano explains how this small-budget movie outperformed big-budget blockbusters.

But Do We Still Need Gov't Intervention To Open Mobile Networks?
from the or-does-competition-work? dept
With that in mind, I was a little disappointed to read Mossberg's take on Verizon Wireless' move. Mossberg cautiously commends Verizon Wireless, withholding full judgment until all the details are out -- which makes complete sense, and is a position I agree with. However, Mossberg fails to note that this (and other such moves) have all happened due to competitive pressures, rather than government fiat, and doesn't retract his call for government intervention. While it absolutely is true that the mobile operators remain too closed these days (even once Verizon Wireless details its plans), what we're seeing is how market pressures tend to drive markets toward openness in much more natural ways than by involving government intervention. The second the government got involved, lobbyists from the mobile operators would make sure that huge loopholes were slipped in that would likely make things worse for consumers, not better. Like Mossberg and many others, I'm frustrated and annoyed by the limitations put on mobile phone systems by operators, but I'm confident that pressure from within the industry and from outside of it (see the recent work of Apple and Google for a start) will eventually force the operators to open up -- and it won't take long for them to realize that the end result is better for everyone, including the operators themselves.

Police: Man gets lodged under vehicle after trying to prank co-worker
TULSA, Okla. (KTUL) —
Police say a man is in the hospital after trying to play a prank on a co-worker.
Officers responded to the Braum's near 101st and Delaware just after midnight. Police say an 18-year-old man who works at the restaurant hid underneath a co-worker's vehicle as a practical joke, but the driver didn't realize he was under the car and tried to pull out of the parking lot.
The prankster ended up lodged underneath the vehicle, according to police. He suffered trauma to his head and lower body and was taken to the hospital.
"I'm not sure what his mindset was, but apparently they play practical jokes on each other," Corp. Jennifer Murphy said.
It's not clear what condition the prankster is in. Police say he was talking to them when they got to the scene.

This happens like clockwork once every few months. A perfectly nice Halloween costume manufacturer sends us the latest disguises based on [insert upcoming $150-million movie's name here] and we have an ethical obligation to make fun of them.
It's not the fault of the designers. I bet there was an idealistic intern out there who burnt the midnight oil trying to make the Sinestro mask not look an anal polyp (said intern failed, incidentally).
It's the simple fact that store-bought Halloween costumes are the most meritless art form ever invented. No cosplay contest anywhere has a category honoring "The Best Costume Purchased At Party City." These branded tarps make an otherwise sane adult look like he A.) wandered off the set of a superhero parody porno; or B.) owns an unlicensed RV with shorn-off license plates and a smokehouse where the bedroom should be.
The only people who can wear store-bought Halloween costumes with a modicum of dignity are babies and dogs, and they don't even count. Dogs are an entirely different species altogether. Babies are, like, fractional people. "Peo," if you will.
Anyhow, here's a sartorial critique of the Amazing Spider-Man and Avengers costumes hitting stores sometime this year. Remember, the easiest and cheapest way to gain Hulkish verisimilitude is to paint your body green. Puny humans won't leave you alone.
First off, we have Nick Fury, which is a zero-effort costume normally. $1 eyepatch + cheap cigar + Eisenhower's favorite cuss words. Buy this costume if you want the S.H.I.E.L.D. regulation peacoat, which — for that extra "secret agent" twist — doubles as an emergency prophylactic.
I have no idea how they did it, but this minimalist Hawkeye costume makes his fandango Wolverine mask look tasteful. This looks like the uniform for the unaired Aryan Nation version of American Gladiators.
And who could forget the time Professor Bruce Banner accidentally gamma-irradiated his award-winning asparagus risotto?
Like a reverse mullet, Thor is party on the top and business on the bottom. I had zero clue Asgardians wore slacks.
If you wear this Loki costume, chances are your less comic-literate compatriots will mistake you for "Bullman" or a Satanic crossing guard.
It's not the world's worst Black Widow costume, but this look is less "flame-tressed czarina of espionage" and more "local oblast's pantsuit-clad vice-deputy minister of millet production."
This wig required the scalps of no less than three Mr. Big fan club members.
I've had dreams about getting assaulted by Lord Humongousesque gangs of nomads wearing bootleg Spider-Man costumes. But that's just me. Also, the horizontal lines guide the eyes directly toward the crotch. Again, that's just me.
Spoiler Alert: The bite of a radioactive arachnid unexplainably transforms your xyphoid process into a Christmas ornament.
Is this a costume, or did a Dane Cook fan who misinterprets every joke stumble into the photo shoot? Either way, everything about this photo is completely inexcusable.

Ode to the 5th Annual Bearback Challenge
By Jeff Browning
The ocean kisses my toes.
My brain says, "NO!"
but my body goes.
I cringe, look around,
Too late to back out now.
What is wrong with me?
Can I fake an injury?
The ocean kisses my knees,
I start to chatter, I start to freeze.
Jimmy and Greg are staring me down,
Too late to back out now.
The ocean kisses my balls,
I see Chyo go over the falls,
I wonder aloud,
Is it too late to back out now?
These other guys can't be as cold
As my old bones,
I could be warm at home,
I howl, "IT'S TOO LATE TO BACK OUT NOW!"
Why, why do I do this?
The lips hit like cold, liquid bricks
I can't breathe, now up to my hips,
I should just dive and get it over with!
I duck dive.
And then it's me
And some friends,
Shivering in the medium tide,
Surfing bearback at the pier.
57 degree water
51 degree air

Wow, this definitely was an awesome episode. Tenma was actually enjoyable to watch this episode and totally cracked me up.
As for always knocking down any comments concerning Yakumo's feelings for Harima, please stop; you don't see us degrading your Eri comments. Yakumo obviously has feelings for him, but it is a matter of where those feelings are heading, as either a close friend or a lover. Girls in real life will often seek out guys who are like their father, and in this episode, Harima reminded Yakumo of her father. Yakumo always wants to support Harima anyway she can, and definitely cares about his happiness more than hers. Isn't that one of the basic rules of true love? Anyway, we know this is probably going to be the last Onigiri episode this season, so lets enjoy it. The depth and compassion that is shown of Yakumo in this episode just make you want to love her that much more. She is truly a wonderful character.
As for Eri, it looks like it is going to get a lot more fun watching her development soon. Although, it will interesting to see how they can turn Harima around from Tenma loving to Eri affection.

True, that was pretty insecure. Such a self pitying comment.
As for knocking down Yakumo, who cares. It's ppl's right. Not that I care to do it. Eri can just as well be knocked down. Also if Yakumo is that big on being less formal, she maybe should first consider changing from Harima-san to Harima-kun like Tenma does. Btw...is it considered a significant event in Japan when honorific is changed? I imagine it's awkward.

when you call a strange by kun, it is an affectionate term, from someone older to you, or to someone consider a friend.
Its like grabbing someone and start calling them "Icky" when their name is actually "nicky". same sort of situation i think.

I also think the "parents" factor to SR is interesting too. Little is ever said on many characters family life. The manga has tons of life if it ever wanted to go in that direction I think. There was one future chapter or b(?) one that had a story on the Tsukamoto sisters in their youth. But anyhow for pretty much everyone in SR the family life, parents aren't disclosed... Some exceptions I would say are Eri, Mikoto, and Lala... maybe others I think.

Those who don't know it yet, from this point on things are going to get very very interesting, probably the best part of them all (even thought i'm not a fan of a particular flag).
I'm surprised episode 15 has got this far (towards the end of V12) now that just makes me wonder whether 2nd term will finish just on or a thew chapters after V12, give or take a thew B chapters. It would be great if most of V13 gets covered too.

Very enjoyable as always the comment Eri made about the manga were to damn funny, and watching Tenma was so funny i had to pause several times so i wouldnt miss anything. But as always i feel soooooooooooooooooooooo sorry for Harima can we say misunderstanding (AGAIN) i forsee monkey in his future. i am now torn though between the HarimaXEri ending and the HarimaXYakumo i dont support the Tenma ending it just doesnt sit well with me. its very obvious that Yakumo has feelings for Harima but has she caught on about Tenma? i really want to see a Yakumo Vs. Eri showdown dont know if we will get it but it would be really freakin cool, so sad the series is almost over im going to miss it.

It will be sad to see anyone disappointed. Disappointing to see disappointment. Hopefully things will all work out. Being SR I think somehow they will. Not sure how though. As for showdown, Eri owned Yakumo at the rave. A real chewing out. Yakumo would have to summon hulk to have a chance of winning, that timidity cannot likely lead to victory.

IT was the part where tenma wanna run several tests on harima based on her friends' msg (more like opinion) on her phone. The cockroach thing was the test if harima will protect yakumo fromm harm or not....and if he will use violence to solve the problem. It was the idea from karin.
The last part of this episode really cracks me up. wall crawling tenma is superrrr creeepy yet hilarious at the same time. It sorta like the girl from movie "the grudge". ....I think it was yoko.....or something like that. That was a major LOL. pooor harima will have a huge misunderstanding coming ahead of him. but hilarious misunderstandings are all school rumble is about.
I really can't wait to see the next episode.....even though i have to dl the raw first......

It was great how Harima aced all of the tests, was there every any doubt? I'm sure cockroach thing was some spoof--usually when outlandish scenes happen in SR they're spoofs, like the card scene early this season. Grudge I didn't see but that sounds right.
Just change the names to Yakumo and Eri and there you have it!

i see i see so its something like harima mistook that room for tenma's then tenma juz happened to see him sneaking into yakumo's room? and all the crawling tenma(s).. its trying to show that harima has kind of like committed a sin or somewhat? o.o the preview of episode 16 seemed to show even more misunderstandings and confusions lol yes and i do agree that sr is basically all about hilarious misunderstandings.. its these that make people want to and just can't stop watching the series i guess ^^

If we are already well into Manga volume#12 in Episode#15, and if my understanding is correct that Manga volume#13 is the latest one, doesn't that mean School Rumble anime will run out of manga material soon? Would the anime producers have to create new material for a School Rumble Term 3, or wait until enough manga material has accumulated before running School Rumble Term 3?
Sometimes I wish the anime would simply conclude in Term2. It would be torture to wait for Term 3.

Seems like no one mentioned about the significance of the "badge of recognition." Did Yakumo attend the event for herself or was it for Harima? Personally, she is continuously trying to help Harima, while at the same time she tries to improve her impression on Harima. You have to give her credit for supporting Harima 100%. Attending the meeting with the Chief Editor, taking him into her home, going out in the cold winter night to buy him ink, posing for him (NEGLECTING her SISTER), getting the badge of recognition. At this point, I still cant 100% infer that she likes him. My only conclusion is something is developing, and it would be great to see yakumo break out of her shell, though I love her conservative self.
I really can't see Eri X Harima. Its just the fact that a rich girl + a delinquent wont work for me. I rather see commoner + commoner; which probably represent the majority who watches this anime. Anyways, Im an odd one out - I want to see Harima with either one of the Tsukamotos, Excuse any grammar mistakes due to my lack of sleep.

hmmm it sure is true that as the episodes progress, yakumo seems to be doing more and more things for harima though there still isn't any hint or clue to suggest that she has feelings for him clearly..omg and is it true that eri is leaving for england (for good)? that can't be right? because she's definitely one of the main characters in the series T.T

Orioles right-hander Jason Hammel declared himself "100-percent" healthy and ready to return to the major-league pitching staff Tuesday after he pitched four, one-run innings for Short-Season Class A Aberdeen at Ripken Stadium.
"I don't know exactly what the plan is for the next couple of days, but I've done my work, they're taking good care of me, and I'm feeling healthy, so I'm ready to go when they want me," said Hammel, who is working his way back from a sore elbow,.
Throwing almost exclusively fastballs, Hammel breezed through the top of the Lowell lineup in the first two innings, topping out at 93 mph and sitting 90-92. In his third inning of work, Hammel began to mix in his secondary pitches.
His slider, which sat in the mid-80s, remained down in the strike zone throughout the outing, and elicited several weak contact from the Lowell hitters.
Hammel, however, ran into trouble in the third after the first two batters reached—first on a single, then a fielder's choice. Lowell's lone run against Hammel scored on a two-out line drive by third baseman Carlos Asuaje.
Still, Hammel was happy with the progress he made since his last rehab start Thursday in Bowie.
"(I had) even better command of the fastball than last time, good sinkers, and the slider was where it needs to be," Hammel said. "Everything else was good too, but that's what I was working out today, the fastball and the slider. I just wanted them to be down in the zone, and that's what we did."
Hammel was 7-8 with a 5.20 ERA before being placed on the disabled list on July 31. When he does return to Orioles, Hammel said he would prefer to do so in the starting rotation though he acknowledged that "it's September—everybody is used in every situation."
"I'm just happy to be healthy, I'm feeling good, and I know I can help the team," Hammel said.

Donald at Kamloops Inside Out has submitted this question for the wider ProBlogger community to answer.
"Have you ever had a local newspaper write an article in the paper that was taken from your blog and not referenced in the article?
This happened to me this week. I wrote an article regarding a sports facility here in Kamloops. The newspaper picked up on it and improved the story, but never gave credit to the impetus of the story. I did meet with the reporter face to face and she admitted that she found the story on my site. Just wondering how far to push this."
It looks like Donald has posted about this and there's already a response from the journalist here – but I thought it might make an interesting question for some discussion.

It has been an incredibly hectic and exhausting few days. That is an understatement. And it was so busy before the move happened with graduation, parties, summer swim, house renovations, etc. I feel like I could sit on the beach and do nothing but read and drink margaritas for a couple weeks. But no rest for the weary yet. I did take a break from unpacking yesterday and headed down to the Mt. Lebanon outdoor pool for a loosen up swim. I met Jenn Michaels, coach of Pitt Masters there. We have kids the same age in the same grade at the same middle school! Tonight, I journeyed to the Sewickley Y to meet up with Jimby. I was too exhausted to do more than a half hearted workout. It maybe awhile before I get back in my AFAP groove. This could be the worst couple training months I can recall for many years. I'm trying not to fret about that too much. And, unfortunately, I really hurt my gimpy right elbow exactly in the spots I had PRP'd. It's very painful, but I haven't had any time to ice. Mr. Fort flew down to NC with Lil Fort today for nationals. I'm leaving on Friday. They are live streaming the meet so I can watch her on line tomorrow am. I hope she's in a decent mental frame of mind to race. This has all been hard on her.

There have been few times in the two thousand years of Christian Jewish relations when Jews have shed genuine tears at the death of a Pope;when Pope Jon Paul II died, I – and many other Jews – cried. Building on the work of Pope John XXIII has done more to improve on Catholic Jewish relations than any Pope in history. And Jew should react with joy at the beautification of Pope John Paul II on Sunday May 1st.
It is a paradox of the Holocaust that the innocent feel guilty and the guilty innocent.
Nowhere is this paradox more pronounced that in the post-Holocaust behavior of the Roman Catholic Church. Pope John Paul II made confronting the Shoah and the fight against antisemitism a centerpiece of his papacy. He brought Roman Catholic-Jewish relations to a new level of respect. Like his predecessor Pope John XXIII, Pope John Paul II was directly touched by the Holocaust and has assumed responsibility for its memory. Both men were changed by the history they experienced and as leaders changed the institution they headed, even an institution so conservative and seemingly so reticent to change as the Roman Catholic Church.
Pope John XXIII accepted the ongoing life of the Jewish people after the arrival of Jesus rejecting supercessionism, the doctrine that Christianity had come to replace Judaism and thus that there was no reason for the people of Israel to remain Jews; he eliminated the charge of deicide and removed it from Catholic teaching and liturgy, he stopped to greet Jews leaving a Rome Synagogue on Sabbath, yet neither he nor his two immediate successors accepted the renascent State of Israel, the very form of Jewish life since 1948. He had come to terms with 1878 years of Jewish life – the years of Jewish exile from 70 C.E. to 1948
Enter Pope John Paul II who as a young man in Poland witnessed the Shoah. Three million Jews of Poland were killed in the Holocaust. After the war, Polish cities, which were once the home of large and thriving Jewish communities, were bereft of Jews and the Pope's hometown was the site of a large ghetto whose Jewish population was deported to death camps. As a young university student, and when he worked in the theater Karol Wojtyla had Jewish friends. Some remained his friends throughout his long and distinguished life. As a recently ordained young priest, he was asked to baptize children born of Jewish parents who had been raised by Polish Catholics, who had sheltered them during the Shoah, thereby saving their lives. When their Jewish parents did not return after the war, the Polish family that had raised them lived them as their own children and wanted to raise them in their faith. On these occasions, the future Pope insisted that Jewish children first be informed of their Jewish origins and only then could they be baptized. It was an act of courage – political, religious and pastoral in post-war Poland, a deed of profound respect for memory. It was not an act popular with his congregants who were unable to tell young Jewish children of their origins during the war for such information could be lethal of both the child and his adoptive family, and who were reluctant to do so after the war for fear of reprisal from the local population and for complicating their relationship.
As Pope John Paul II, he recognized the State of Israel. He visited a synagogue for prayer and treated the Rabbi and the Congregation of Rome with every religious courtesy. Instead of dividing the world between Christians and Jews, he spoke of the commonality of religious traditions/ He spoke with reverence of the Torah. He spoke out against antisemitism again and again. He visited the sites of Jewish death and acknowledged on numerous occasions the centrality of the Shoah.
His visit to Poland in 1979 was perhaps the moment for which he was elected Pope. He delegitimated Communism in Poland and played a pivotal role in its demise. And Communism was the strongest enemy of Jewish nationalism and of Judaism.
In March 2000, Pope John Paul II visited Israel – the State and not just the Holy Land. From the moment he arrived at Ben-Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv to the moment he departed, it was clear to Roman Catholics and Jews, and to the international media, that this was an extraordinary gesture of reconciliation in the shadow not only of two millennia of Christian antisemitism but in the massive shadow of the Holocaust. Even if Pope John Paul II did not say everything that could be said – he apologized for the antisemitism of Christians not of Christianity—his bowed head at Yad Vashem and his note of apology inserted into the Western Wall said more than could be said by words alone. In the Third Millennia, The Pontiff was determined that Roman Catholics act differently, behave differently and believe differently. An eyewitness to the Holocaust, he had come to make amends. He took all-important steps to make certain that the full authority of the papacy was brought to bear against antisemitism. His theology was quite simple: antisemitism is a sin against God. It is anti-Christian. These are welcome words to every Jew and one could sense their power by the manner in which the Israelis received Pope John Paul II. Even ultra-Orthodox Rabbis, opposed by conviction to anything ecumenical and raised on the stories transmitted through the generations of confrontations between Priests and Rabbis, were deeply impressed by the Papal visit to the offices of the Israel's Chief Rabbis.
Pope John Paul II's record was not perfect. He attempted to canonize Pope Pius XII, the war-time Pontiff, he did not open the Vatican Archives from World War II for researchers on the Holocaust to let the true record of he Vatican be known, he canonized (sic - should be beatified) Pope Leo IX (sic - should be Pius) who had forbidden he return of a forcibly baptized Jewish child, he welcome Yasir Arafat and President Kurt Waldheim to the Vatican, the former before he recognized Israel and the later after his Nazi past was exposed and he had flamed Austrian antisemitism during his presidential campaign.. The most charitable thing that can be said of his handling of the pedophile scandal in the Church was that it was inadequate. Jewish tradition teaches that "there is no righteous person without sin."
Yet none of this can obscure the overriding substance of his papacy. He demonstrated that true religiosity – devout, orthodox and pious as it may be—need not demonizes another religion and disparager other faiths and the right of another religion to worship their God as they believe. The innocent ones who felt guilty have led contemporary Roman Catholicism to renounce antisemitism and to accept the integrity of the ongoing religious life of the Jews. This behavior should serve as a model for Jews and Muslims as well as for other religious leaders as to the ethical requirements of religious doctrine.

cookieman108 | Inside the jar... | 06/14/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Say what you want about producer/director William Castle (The Tingler, 13 Ghosts, Mr. Sardonicus) but one thing was for sure...he knew how to fill seats in a movie theater, primarily by forcing some sort of direct interaction between the audience and the film (at least in his horror themed features). In House on Haunted Hill (1959), he utilized a technique he called `Emergo', which essentially featured a skeleton, suspended from wires, coming from the screen towards the audience during a specific part of the movie, the intent being to scare the pants off those in the theater. From what I've heard, it didn't sound like many were frightened, but it didn't really matter as Castle was a master at selling the sizzle, rather than the steak, as they say, and audiences flocked to his films...produced and directed by William Castle, the film features the merchant of menace himself Vincent Price (The Fly, The Tingler, House of Usher) in the first of two films he made with Castle. Also appearing is Elisha Cook Jr. (Shane, The Haunted Palace), Carolyn Craig (Giant), Richard Long (Ma and Pa Kettle), Carol `homina homina' Ohmart (Spider Baby), Alan Marshal (The Hunchback of Notre Dame), and Julie Mitchum (Edge of Hell), sister of actor Robert Mitchum.
Price plays Frederick Loren, an eccentric millionaire who, along with his wife Annabelle (Ohmart), has thrown together an interesting little party involving five, seemingly random strangers gathering at a haunted house with ten thousand dollars to each who dare stay through the night. In attendance, along with Frederick and his wife, is Watson Pritchard (Cook), whose brother, one of the previous owners, was murdered within the house, Lance Schroeder (Long), a test pilot, Dr. David Trent (Marshal), a psychiatrist, Nora Manning (Craig), a typist, and Ruth Bridgers (Mitchum), a newspaper columnist. Seems all have agreed to play Frederick's little game for one reason, they need the dough, and if some crazy rich dude is willing to part with his green for such a seemingly easy task, what the hay, right? Well, the guests arrive, introductions are made, and Frederick gives them the full lowdown. The secluded house is like a fortress (steel doors and bars on the windows) in that once they're locked in (at midnight, to be precise), there's no getting out until the caretakers arrive the next morning. Also, there's no electricity or telephones, and the nearest neighbors are well beyond yelling distance. After a tour of the house, highlighting where various grisly events occurred (including a visit to the acid vat in the cellar...man, this place has everything), a few drinks, and some scares (the ghosts seem to have a thing for Nora), Fredrick passes out some party favors in the form of loaded handguns (nothing like being drunk and armed), not that they'd do anyone much good if there are ghosts out and about...anyway, midnight is coming so if anyone wants to cut out of this ghoulish get together, they'd better get while the getting's good...
While not my favorite Castle feature (that goes to The Tingler), House on Haunted Hill is still a hoot and a half for all of its campy, good-natured fun. The one thing this film has going for it, above and beyond everything else, is Vincent Price. No matter how rotten the feature was (which wasn't the case here), Price always brought with him a real sense of class and sophistication to the proceedings, especially true of the number of Poe based films he and Roger Corman made throughout the 1960s for American International Pictures. The absolute best parts of this movie for me occur early on as Price's character is interacting with his wife, and we see the pair have an interesting hate/hate relationship...here's an example of their often snide and insinuating banter they engage in behind closed doors...
Fredrick: Of all my wives you're least agreeable...
Annabelle: But still alive.
Here's another bit...
Frederick: Do you remember the fun we had when you poisoned me?
Annabelle: Something you ate, the doctor said.
Frederick: Yes, arsenic on the rocks...
There are a few more excellent exchanges between Price and Ohmart, worthy alone of seeing this film. As for the rest of the performers, I had no real complaints. Elisha Cook Jr.'s character did get on my nerves after awhile, with his constant dour outlook punctuated by his persistent `doom and gloom' predictions. Drink some more booze, you rummy...seriously, all this guy did was talk about how the ghosts were going to come and take them all away. Perhaps this attitude was assisted by his excessive alcohol intake, but really, what's the point of accepting an invitation to spend a night at a house you believe you won't come out of alive? The money? Won't do you much good if'n you're dead, fool. If I was in that house I probably would have shot him just to be rid of him. At least I learned one thing...never invite Elisha Cook Jr. to your party and ply him with lots of booze as he'll turn into a real poison pill. I did like Ms. Ohmart, and not just because she was a smoking babe with a large rack, but because she held her own with Price, even if it was for just a handful of scenes. If you've got a hankering to see more of her, and you like ookie horror features, you should really check out another film she appeared in called Spider Baby (1968), featuring Lon Chaney Jr. There are a few, minor scares scattered throughout the film (a crusty crone, a disembodied head or two), but nothing that will make you soil yourself...some scenes will make you snicker, though, like the one where Pritchard chucks a dead rat into the acid vat, if only to demonstrate the acid is really acid. After some bubbling effects, a fully articulated rat skeleton bobs to the surface, indicating to those watching it truly is the real deal. Yes sir, that be some powerful acid...the movie may not be much for scares, but it does have plenty of atmosphere created by Castle's direction, groovy, cobweb laden set pieces, spooky music, and usage of the Ennis Brown House in Los Angeles, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, for the exterior shots.
It seems this film has fallen into the public domain (i.e. the copyright expired), as I see there are a number of DVD releases by various companies. I can't speak for those other releases, but the one I own, put out by Warner Brothers (it has a large headshot of Price in the lower right hand corner and Ohmart in a nightgown being menaced by a disfigured hand in the upper left), looks exceptionally good, and features both the fullscreen and widescreen formats, along with a excellent Dolby Digital mono audio track. The only extras included are a theatrical trailer for the film and subtitles in both English and French.
By the way, this movie saw a remake of the same titled, released in 1999, oozing with high tech special effects. It was decent enough, but I still liked the original better.
Old Price Classic is that pure fun!

"William Castle at his gimmicky best! A Classic, spooky Black and White, with deliciously devilish Vincent Price as millionaire with a bored gold-digger wife. She wants a Halloween party with her friends, Price tosses a party all right, but not with the people of her choosing. He offers $10,000 dollars to five stranger if they will join him and his wife in spending Halloween night in a truly haunted house. One of the 5 is a young Elisha Cooke, family of the former owners who died in the house, and he leads them on a murder tour. To jazz things up, Price passes out "party favors" - guns. And it's a race to find out whether Price of his wife will be the last one standing. This movie is a grandfather of nearly every clichés, blooding dripping from the ceiling, dark mysterious corridors, a witchy woman floating around and vanishing - and the topper that organ music!! This is more like a Halloween Fun house ride than a movie! Price is campy and has great fun with the role, with super lines, especially when fussing with his less than happy wife.Castle originally devised this movie with "special touches" for the audiences, like ghost on wires gloating through the audience of people in costume sitting down beside you to enhance the fun house feel.Just plain fun and a wee trip down memory lane."
Scary, Campy, Old Horror Fun

"HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL is one of my favorite movies. It has everything. A haunted house, a dark and stormy night, ghosts, a bloodstain that won't wash out, severed heads, an acid vat, organ music...It's just so atmospheric. The plot: Millionaire Vincent Price and his scheming wife invite five strangers to the house on Haunted Hill. He'll pay them 10,000 dollars each if they spend the night there. One of them dies, and a murder mystery also evolves. This movie from William Castle and Robb White is so much fun, and the set and acting is fantastic. If you love this, check out 13 GHOSTS, which I have also reviewed.E-mail me: email@example.com"

"House on Haunted Hill (1959) is a horror film B movies directed by William Castle, written by Robb White, and starring Vincent Price as eccentric millionaire Fredrick Loren. He and his fourth wife, Annabelle, have invited five people to the house for a "Haunted House" party. Whoever stays in the house for one night will earn $10,000 each. As the night progresses, all the guests are trapped inside the house with ghosts, murderers, and other terrors.
Exteriors shots of the house were filmed at the historic Ennis-Brown House in Los Feliz, California.
House on Haunted Hill is the tale of five people invited to stay the night in a haunted house by an eccentric millionaire, Fredrick Loren, who is throwing the "party" for his fourth wife, Annabelle, with the stipulation that the power will be out and all doors will be locked at midnight, allowing no accessible escape. Anyone who stays in the house for the entire night, given that they are still alive, will each receive $10,000.
The five guests all arrive in hearses, which he explains may be empty now, but they may be in need of them later. He explains the rules of the party and gives each of the guests a gun for protection. Loren's wife tries to warn the guests that her husband is psychotic, causing them to be very suspicious of him, especially Nora Manning, who becomes convinced that he's trying to kill her when she keeps seeing mysterious ghouls, including the ghost of Annabelle, who had hung herself after being forced to attend the party.
After being driven into a fit of hysteria by the ghosts haunting her, Nora shoots Mr. Loren, assuming he is going to kill her. Dr. Trent, another guest, tries to get rid of the body by pushing it into acid, but the lights go out, and when they come back on, both of the men are gone. Annabelle emerges, having faked her death with the help of Dr. Trent, and having succesfully tricked Nora into killing Loren. Suddenly, the skeleton of Loren emerges from the acid, approaching Annabelle and mourning how she's killed him. In a panic, a screaming Annabelle accidentally backs into the acid herself. The real Mr. Loren walk out of the shadow, holding the pully that he was using to control the skeleton with, and watching Annabelle disintegrate.
Nora tells the other guests that she's shot Loren in the cellar, and they all rush down there. When they arrive, they see that he's actually alive, and he explains to him that his wife and Dr. Trent were having an affair, and they'd planned to trick Nora into murdering him so that they could get away with his money. Unfortunately for them, he'd hadn't loaded the guns with bullets, but powder, and he hadn't been killed. Just when everyone thinks the trauma is finally over, Mr. Pritchard looks up, a terrified expression on his face, and announces that the ghosts are finally coming for them.
The theatrical trailer promoted the film as The House on Haunted Hill, although all advertising material, and the title on the film itself were simply titled House on Haunted Hill. The film is best known for a famous promotional gimmick used in the film's original theatrical release called "Emergo": William Castle placed an elaborate pulley system in some theaters showing the film; allowing a plastic skeleton to be flown over the audience at the appropriate time. [1] [2] In the late 1980s, the Film Forum in New York City had a revival of the film (along with several other Castle pictures) that included the original gimmicks.
Thanks to Castle's gimmickry, the film was a huge success. Alfred Hitchcock took notice of the low-budget film's performance at the box office, and set out to make his own low-budget horror film, which became the critically acclaimed hit Psycho (1960). Ironically, Castle himself was a Hitchcock fan, and tried to imitate Hitchcock's work in later films such as Homicidal (1961).
House on Haunted Hill was originally released by Allied Artists Pictures Corporation. The film has since become public domain, and is available in a number of issues. Two major studios have released the film in remastered versions. Warner Home Video released the film on DVD as a tie-in to promote the release of the 1999 remake. In 2005, the film was colorized by Legend Films. The color version was released on DVD the same year by 20th Century Fox. Extras prepared by Legend Films for the Fox DVD release included an audio commentary track by comedian Michael J. Nelson, of Mystery Science Theater 3000 fame, two versions of the trailer, and a slideshow of images from the film's original press book. Johnny Legend released a 50TH Anniversary DVD containing a whole slew of Extras such as both Original Theatrical Trailer and TV Spot plus several William Castle and Vincent Price Theatrical Trailers, A Carol Ohmart profile and Golden Age TV Shows starring Vincent Price. A DivX file of the colorized version with the commentary embedded is available as part of Nelson's RiffTrax On Demand service.[3] In 2009, a newly-recorded commentary by Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett was released by RiffTrax.[

Donegal Tweed Hikaru
Added Sep 26, 2009
by wzrdreams
Brooklyn, New Yo...
After 2 muslins (size 44, and 42), and bunch of obsessive pattern alterations and solicitation of advice from my tech team, I ended up going with the size 44, with no alterations. Why? Because as cute as this is when it fits snug (42) I want to wear this over sweaters come fall/winter…. and the size 44 will allow that. I could have added a CB seam to the peplum and shaved it in the CB and side seams, but I decided to just go with it. If I make it again (and with this much practice with the pattern I might as well) I will go with a smoother suiting material (but still probably wool) and make the 42.
The only real alteration I made was using lining for the collar stand facing. I should have used it for the back neck facing as well, this donegal tweed is ITCHY! But I'll won't be wearing it over tank tops so it's fine. My neck is grateful for the lining though.
One of the sewers at work showed me how to shorten the metal separating zipper. It involved an awl, a rubber mallet, pliers, scissors, and had nothing to do with bar-tacking with a sewing machine. I hope to do a how to someday, because that was darn useful information.
Oh, I didn't like the shape of the epaulette pattern piece. It doesn't make a symmetrical piece. If I do this jacket again I will correct that.
ETA: And I thought the instructions for the bottom hem and the front facing seams where way vague. I followed some instructions from Threads Magazine (online) for bagging the lining, but I should note here that you should NOT sew the facing to the front without stopping for the facing seam allowance. The picture in the instructions would indicate other wise.
Material Notes
100% New Wool, Scottish Donegal Tween (Marc Jacobs remnant from waaaay back in like 2004),
100% Rayon twill lining – NY Elegant Fabric, 10 awesome buttons from M&J Trim, black thread (top stitch), brown thread (button holes), black metal separating zipper, black shoulder pads, black fusible interfacing

I was so paranoid about wasting my fabric and I had such enthusiasm for the project that the muslins didn't really waste much of my time. Making them was great practice in cutting and sewing, so that by the time I cut the real fabric I wasn't paranoid about the fit and it only took about 3 evenings to sew it all together.

Princeton Review: Wabash "Best Value" Again• February 5, 2013 Share:
Wabash College has been rated a "Best Value College" and one of the "Best in the Midwest" by the Princeton Review.
The Princeton Review prints an annual book of The Best Value Colleges: 2013. The Review awards the designation based on assessments that examine more than 30 data points covering academics, costs, and financial aid. The Review chooses 150 schools for the list from 650 reviewed – 75 private and 75 public institutions.
Only the top 10 schools in each category are listed with others presented alphabetically. Wabash made the list in best private colleges.
"The Princeton Review's resources for high school students and their families often provide an insider's look into the nation's best colleges and universities," said Jim Amidon, Director of Communications. "Wabash's inclusion in this year's Best Value Colleges for 2013 confirms what generations of the College's alumni know about Wabash: it provides an unparalleled liberal arts education that prepares graduates for successful lives and careers."
The annual publication listed Swarthmore College, PA., as the top private college in the nation followed by Harvard, Williams, Princeton and Pomona in the top five. The remaining schools in the top 10 were Yale, Rice, Hamilton, Claremont McKenna, and Grinnell.
The Top 10 public universities were: Virginia, UNC, New College of Florida, William & Mary, California, NC State, Wisconsin, U. of New York at Binghamton, Michigan, and Georgia.

John Deere recently introduced a new 120-foot planter that can seed from 90 to 100 acres per hour. The planter, which will be made at the Bauer Built Manufacturing plant in Paton, Iowa, will sell for $345,000.
About 80 miles to the southeast, in Ankeny, Iowa, Deere is beginning to build its new 7760 cotton picker. The picker, which packs the cotton into round modules, will list for more than $600,000.
I'm not picking on Deere (no pun intended) or Bauer. Case IH is assembling axial flow combines that sell for more than $400,000 to the west in Nebraska and its own Module Express 625 cotton picker in Minnesota. Each bases their pricing on production costs and perceived value in the market place.
What's interesting is that this is occurring in and around a state where the two U.S. senators and the former governor seem determined to threaten the livelihoods of the farmers who are most likely to buy this equipment.
Tom Harkin, the chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, Charles Grassley, ranking member on the Finance Committee, and former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack, who is now secretary of agriculture, mean well.
Grassley and Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., have tried for years to pass legislation that would put a hard cap of $250,000 on farm program payments to individuals. The Obama administration appears to also favor that language.
Harkin endorsed the Obama administration's fiscal 2010 budget proposal to phase out direct payments to farmers with sales revenues of more than $500,000 annually over three years. (Interestingly, Sen. Grassley opposes the idea.)
Even before the administration announced its budget plan Feb. 26, Vilsack raised the ire of farm groups by suggesting their members should embrace new programs that would replace existing payments with "green" payments or trading of carbon credits, which are a mystery to many farmers.
In speeches to wheat, rice and cotton groups, Vilsack cited the $1 trillion federal deficit the administration is projecting in fiscal 2010 as the primary reason for the change. Phasing out direct payments to farms with sales of more than $500,000 annually is expected to save slightly more than a billion dollars a year.
Not all farm groups are opposed to the administration's proposal. The president of the American Ag Movement said he believes fixed subsidies such as direct payments are not politically sustainable and should never have been enacted as substitutes for price supports.
The $500,000 cutoff would be the equivalent of 1,500 bales at current prices or the yield from 750 acres of cotton. It would equal the sales from about 900 acres of corn or 750 acres of rice, which would certainly not put the operators in the class of the giant, corporate farms the environmental groups like to rail against.
Grassley, Harkin and now Secretary Vilsack talk about ensuring that farm program payments go to the "family" farmers who need them. I recently covered a panel discussion by farmers from Minnesota, Illinois, Kansas, Oklahoma and Iowa at the Commodity Classic in Grapevine, Texas. Each would describe his as a family farming operation, although none had fewer than 2,000 acres of cropland.
So who are Grassley, Harkin and Vilsack talking about when they say farm program payments should be re-directed to family farmers? It must not be the growers who can buy those planters, cotton pickers and combines being turned out in Iowa and its neighbors.

void nis_lerror(nis_error status, char *label);
char *nis_sperror_r(nis_error status, char *label, char *buf, int length);
char *nis_sperror(nis_error status, char *label);
These functions convert NIS+ status values into text strings.
nis_sperrno() simply returns a pointer to a string constant which is the error string.
nis_perror() prints the error message corresponding to status as ``label: error message'' on standard error.
nis_lerror() sends the error text to syslog(3C) at level LOG_ERR.
The function nis_sperror_r(), returns a pointer to a string that can be used or copied using the strdup() function (See string(3C)). The caller must supply a string buffer, buf, large enough to hold the error string (a buffer size of 128 bytes is guaranteed to be sufficiently large). status and label are the same as for nis_perror(). The pointer returned by nis_sperror_r() is the same as buf, that is, the pointer returned by the function is a pointer to buf. length specifies the number of characters to copy from the error string to buf.
The last function, nis_sperror(), is similar to nis_sperror_r() except that the string is returned as a pointer to a buffer that is reused on each call. nis_sperror_r() is the preferred interface, since it is suitable for single-threaded and multi-threaded programs.

If it's transmitted negative voltage to sharp needle, the electron having the negative electricity radiates at a high speed with energy to excite ionization as to the high process. Then, the anion is made to bump against air molecule. At that time, how the concentration level of anion can be maintained is the important thing. This air purifier is to purify air with the radiated electron of 18 billions per second and to maintain over 1,000 anions per 1cc air expectable for good health. Main functions of this air purifier a) Elimination of human waste matters made by electromagnetic waves The electromagnetic waves radiated from electron and electric appliances such as T. V., Computer, have a high energy. It causes this energy to make cations in the air. The high density of cations in the air induces the diseases as deformed child delivery as well as asthma, bronchitis, headache, eyesight troubles, lumbago, stiff shoulders, oversensitiveness, hypertonic, menstrual irregularity, enervation, dermatitis, tenosynovitis, because of increasing secretion of hormone as serotonin, free histamine in the human body. As previously stated, this air purifier makes anions and it eliminates and neutralizes harmful cations, and it is a role that activity of human body is strengthened to take abundant anions and that various diseases, VDT syndrome and building diseases syndrome is cured to decrease stress hormone. b) Purification of the air In the polluted airs, various organic waste matters as cigarette smokiness, sulfurous acid gas(SO2), nitric oxide compound(NOX), carbon monoxide(CO), ozone(O3) makes cations, The anions made by this air purifier neutralize and eliminate these cations.Them, it is maintained and cleaned freshly in the air, above all, in case of harmful matters as ozone, O3 ¡æ O + O2 O3 + O ¡æ 2O2 O2 + E- ¡æ O2- According to above series of reactions, useful anion oxygen(O2) is made from harmful ozone with this air purifier. So, it is important role to solve oxygen starvation. c) Elimination of dust and bacteria The cation makes bad air floating freely the polluted particles as bacteria, dust, mold and pollen. But, the anion eliminates and neutralizes electrically the cations. This air purifier eliminates to absorb these polluted matters with the strong plus-collections plate in the purifier after changing minus electrically. d) Humidity control This purifier has a few function of humidity control. Take for instance, in the process of making anion oxygen from harmful ozone. o©ý + 2H +2e ¡æ O©ü + H©üO As to this reaction, water is made and it helps to recover humidity. e) Elimination of bad smell As the anion neutralizes to oxidize and analyze chemically fundamental matters of bad smell and stink, the anions eliminate effectively the smell. So, the indoor environment will be comfortably.

Sheriff says more than 225 investigators are working around the clock, have followed through on more than 140 leads and have conducted more than 100 interviews since the child was reported missing Monday morning.
JACKSONVILLE, N.C. — The numbers are beginning to add up, but what are not registering are the whereabouts of Mariah Kay Woods.
As the investigation and search for the 3-year-old girl moved through its third day, Onslow County Sheriff Hans Miller and Federal Bureau of Investigation Senior Supervisor Agent Stanley Meador held their second press conference.
"We're in our third day of our investigation and search for the little girl, and we want to find her and bring her home," Miller said.
Miller said more than 225 investigators are working around the clock, have followed through on more than 140 leads and have conducted more than 100 interviews since the child was reported missing Monday morning from her Dawson Cabin Road home by her mother, Kristy Woods.
Mariah, the youngest of three children living with their mother, Kristy Woods, and her boyfriend, Earl Kimrey, went missing shortly after 6 a.m. Nov. 27.
"We're talking to them and they're talking to us," Miller said of Kristy Woods and Kimrey.
Miller further reported that "hundreds of acres on foot, in the air and with dogs" have been searched. Officials stressed that residents in the Southwest and Verona areas should search their properties as a way to help find Mariah Woods.
"At this point, priority number one is finding Mariah," Meador said.
Meador also asked the public's assistance for specific information.
"If anyone had contact with the family on Sunday, please contact the Sheriff's office at 910-455-3113 so that we can put together a specific timeline," Meador said.
Mariah Woods is described as a white girl, approximately 2 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing about 30 pounds, according to the Amber Alert regarding her disappearance. The alert also states she has brown hair and blue eyes and was wearing pink and white panties.
She was last seen in the area of 2405-7 Dawson Cabin Road in Jacksonville, North Carolina, according to the alert.
Meador said behind the scenes there are hundreds of investigators helping those searching for Mariah and that it would not be right for authorities to divulge every effort since it would not help efforts to find the girl.
On Wednesday, authorities were observed searching many locations within a few miles of the family's home.
Law enforcement blocked off a section of High Hill Road from traffic and searched a creek but were unable to go into specifics, according to FBI Public Information Officer Shelley Lynch.
Shortly after 1 p.m., authorities were at a small tributary that flows into Southwest Creek. Elements from the Onslow County Sheriff's Office, Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the Onslow County Emergency Services Dive Team spent more than an hour searching the waters of Troubleson Creek. Searchers found nothing.
High Hill Road is a 3-mile stretch of state roadway connecting U.S. 17 and Dawson Cabin Road and is near the Inez Mobile Home Park on Dawson Cabin Road in which Mariah lives.
Throughout the day Wednesday, busloads of Marines deployed from the command post on Dawson Cabin Road to different areas to conduct foot searches. Investigators stayed at the Woods' residence with some seen wearing white hazardous-material jumpsuits, peering and crawling beneath the home as well as other nearby dwellings.
An Onslow County Sheriff's Office crime scene investigator wearing a hazmat suit crawled underneath Mariah's home and the home next door, but nothing was brought out from underneath.
Two law enforcement officers then walked door to door, knocking and talking to neighbors. One neighbor, Kelly Kerr, allowed agents to examine the area beneath her rental property after she and other residents in the home heard a loud sound emanating from their home late Sunday night.
"It sounded like something hitting a piece of wood real hard," said Kyle Bonitz, who shares the home with Kerr.
Shortly before noon, a single-engine john boat joined the arsenal of tools being utilized in the search. The terrain near the Woods home is dotted with wetlands and small ponds.
"We all want to find her, and we want to find her safe and sound," Lynch said.
Miller said more dogs were also being added to the search but would not elaborate on what kind of dogs.
"I don't want to go there," Miller said.
Both the FBI and the OCSO believe the disappearance of Mariah is a "focused incident."
If you have information you believe may be helpful, no matter how small or perceived insignificant, you are urged to contact the OCSO at 910-455-3113 or Crimes Stoppers. Crime Stoppers offers cash rewards up to $2,500 for information deemed of value to law enforcement. Callers to Crime Stoppers may remain anonymous and never have to reveal their identity when calling 910-938-3273. Information can also be anonymously texted via Text-A-Tip by typing TIP4CSJAX and your message to 274637.

Blueberry braid, Arugula Pesto Pizza, and More
So, baked a lot this week in the RV. I finally solved the burning problem, thanks to TFL'er's help. The aluminum foil layer was the key. I put aluminum foil on the rack and that did it. I realized that back a few months ago, when we first got in the RV, I had baked some ginger cookies and put aluminum foil on the rack because I didn't have a cookie sheet that fit in the oven at the time. I left the foil in for awhile and was baking pretty decent breads. Somewhere along the way, I removed the foil and didn't make the connection between that and my bread burning. One of TFL'ers suggested putting aluminum foil on the rack and I remembered that this so I tried it again and it's working!
This week I baked up a bunch of great breads. I started with a "1,2,3" bread which was really a "1, 2.5,3" bread as I increased the hydration to about 75% since I made it with 100% whole wheat white flour. The other interesting thing about this loaf (besides not using a recipe and actually having it come out edible, LOL!) was that I accidently switched my rye and WW starters when I was refreshing them. So, my rye starter got fed WW and my WW starter got fed rye. Thus, this bread was made with a "hybrid" starter. It was really, really good. Nice tang, nice sweetness from the WWW flour. Thanks flourgirl51 for the great flours that I've been using!
Next, I made a dessert bread. I had some frozen blueberries I just had to bake with. So, I made FloydDM's blueberry braid. The only change is that I used mascarpone cheese instead of cream cheese. Talk about addictive!
Same day, I started Eric's favorite rye. But, I used whole wheat white flour since I don't have first clear. My other changes this time were some fennel seeds and onion. Plus, 75 grams of altus from my last rye bread. My husband declared this my best rye bread EVER!!! I'm really loving this recipe as a base. I've also been bumping up the rye percent to about 50%. One of these days I'm, now that I got my new order of rye flour I'm going to make Mini's rye bread in a pot. I just need to go buy a suitable pot for my RV oven.
Finally, today I harvested a gigantic amount of arugula that was bolting. I have a big food processor and I packed it full. This was a plastic grocery sack completely full of arugula that I than tore into pieces and stuffed into my processor. Maybe a few pounds worth? I added olive oil, 1/2 pound parmesan, salt, pine nuts and fresh garlic and made some out of this world arugula pesto. So, needed to have some pizza to go with this.
Here's the formula I used for the pizza:
180 grams all purpose
50 grams durum flour (whole durum from flourgirl51)
20 grams whole wheat flour
1 cup water (warm)
1 1/2 tsp yeast
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
I beat this with a paddle on high until it came off the sides and bottom, about 5 minutes. Put it into my 2 liter container, waited about an hour with it setting on a shelf over a light in an 80 degree spot. Tripled in size.
Here are my toppings:
Brushed with olive oil. Spread with Sundried tomato spread from Safeway. Spread about 1 cup of arugula pesto. Pepperoni. Mozzarello. Yum!!!!
This was the best pizza dough I've made so far. Despite the short rise time the flavor was intense and the texture was amazing. I think it was the durum flour that made the difference. Note, this is durum flour, not semolina. It looks sort of like whole wheat flour and has a nice, sweet, strong smell. I get it from Flourgirl51.
What a great baking week. Started off cold, windy and rainy. Now it's sunny and nice. And, I have several months worth of pesto to put in my freezer! Enough to last until basil season. Now I can't wait tomato season.
