Randy Rogers Band, 'One More Sad Song' – Song Review
Randy Rogers Band is prepping a new album called 'Trouble' (to be released later this year or early next) by dropping a lead single, 'One More Sad Song.' Historically, the group hasn't gotten much of a push from their label to get a song on mainstream country radio. This won't be the exception.
One can feel the taut and tenuous string holding the singer's heart together, but it's difficult to understand Rogers' lyrics at times. Vocal effects muddy an otherwise simple and pure emotion. A good guess at the chorus is, "I can tell which way that you're leaning / Don't know what it is / But I got a feeling your almost all gone / And I'm scared that when you stop believing / You and me baby will end up being one more sad song."
It's clear the pain and anxiety that inspired 'One More Sad Song' is real. Fans going through something similar will find a nice shoulder to lean on in Rogers, but it doesn't pull up slides of yesterday for the rest of country music America. The plodding melody is difficult to embrace and the lyrics could use more color.
"We're on a road to nowhere / I don't know how we got there / Some wrong turn somewhere / Maybe I just stop trying / But there's just no justifying / And now we're dying," Rogers sings to begin the song.
Give credit to the Randy Rogers Band for avoiding the polished Nashville sound. An album full of similar stories and sounds may not turn in a radio hit, but that doesn't make it any less artistically satisfying.

I want to seed a 96 well plate from a T25 flask having a volume of 4mL. Each well should have 10,000 cells in 100uL. I trypsinised the cells and added 1mL of medium to get a cell suspension. Its concentration is 1e6 cells/mL. So I took the entire 1mL of cell suspension and diluted it with 9mL of medium. From this I added 100uL into each well so that it contains 10,000 cells in 100 uL. Is this correct?

106 cells in 10 ml will be 105 cells/ml = 104 per 100 ul. therefore correct.
Posted 09 October 2012 - 08:34 AM
thanks for the reply bob. One more doubt. the concentration which I got (1e6 cells/mL) is the concentration of the 1mL cell suspension right, not of the initial 4mL in T25 flask right?
Posted 09 October 2012 - 12:22 PM
The concentration of the cells is measured in the volume you have collected them in after you trypsinized them, not on the volume of medium you grew them in.

thanks bob. that helps me a lot.

OAKLAND — Port of Oakland executive director Omar Benjamin said Monday that he would "retire" effective immediately, even as the investigation into his involvement in a strip club expense reimbursement continued.
The port chief was found to be part of a group whose $4,537 tab at a Texas strip club was paid for by the Port of Oakland, according to newly released expense records.
The Port of Oakland released the full version of the expense records Friday as scrutiny over the spending continued. The records showed for the first time that Benjamin helped run up the strip club tab that was passed off as a normal business meeting.
Benjamin and the port's maritime director, James Kwon, were said to be subject to dismissal if the investigation found they improperly billed the port, according to the agency's administrative policies. Kwon remains on administrative leave.
"I am cooperating with the port inquiry and will do whatever I can to resolve this matter constructively and in the interests of the Port of Oakland," Benjamin said last week by email.
Port policy allows "reasonable and necessary travel, entertainment and other expenditures incurred in the course of conducting the business of the port." It does not say where port employees can be entertained or how much executives can spend entertaining them.
Aviation director Deborah Ale Flint will continue to serve as acting executive director; she was put in charge of port operations after Benjamin was placed on leave Oct. 18.
Staff writer Angela Woodall contributed to this report.

Boston Globe-
Earlier this year, five of the country's biggest banks agreed to cough up $25 billion because they'd routinely fleeced their own customers and wreaked tremendous economic havoc along the way. The nationwide foreclosure settlement was an extraordinary moment for JP Morgan, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and GMAC because it brought the banks as close as they've ever come to taking ownership of the foreclosure fraud they've sewn throughout the housing market. But the foreclosure settlement's second act, now playing out in a Boston courthouse, shows that the landmark settlement hasn't actually changed the way the banks think about other people's homes.
The banks might be $25 billion lighter, but in Boston, they're still trying to shrug off the duty to follow foreclosure law.
The nationwide foreclosure settlement in February landed a heavy blow against the five banks. They walked in hoping to use the settlement as a tool for immunizing themselves against reprisals related to botched foreclosures, but instead of waiving away responsibility for the foreclosure crisis, the settlement forced the five banks to finally commit to ending it.

No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Report Cards
Under the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law, there is a requirement that all states and school districts in receipt of Title I assistance must issue annual "Report Cards" to families. The purpose of the report card is to give families information about their child's school in terms of academic achievement and professional qualifications of its teachers.
Each principal sends a copy of the school's report card to families. The report cards are also posted on the district's web site. The information contained is divided into several parts: enrollment information, teacher qualifications and the school's achievement on MCAS. Additional information on each of these sections is attached.
Principals are prepared to help families if they have questions about what the Report Card means. Administrators in the Offices of Student Achievement and Accountability and Title 1 are also available to answer any questions.
Student achievement is a core value of the Cambridge Public Schools. We look forward to the continued partnership of families and students in raising achievement for all students.

Undergraduate Programs
The Major Program is designed to provide a broad background in the fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering as well as to offer an introduction to the many professional and technical areas with which mechanical engineers are concerned. The program covers both major streams of the major of mechanical engineering.
Undergraduates earn a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. A flowchart of the Major Program in Mechanical Engineering as part of the Common Curriculum requirements for an engineering degree at Cornell is available on the Forms page. The Major program is inside the dashed box; the overview shows the requirements for a student who has no advanced placement credit. An example is provided to show how this basic program can be modified to meet Pre-Med requirements. Detailed descriptions of the requirements for the BSME degree and an Engineering Degree Checklist are also provided.
Two Major Streams of Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical systems (structural analysis, dynamics, and control), and Materials Processing are concerned with the design, analysis, testing, and manufacture of machinery, vehicles, devices, and systems. Particular areas of concentration are mechanical systems, vehicle engineering, biomechanics, and materials processing and precision engineering. Other topics covered are computer aided design, vibrations, and control systems, and dynamics.
Fluids, energy, and heat-transfer systems are concerned with the experimental and theoretical aspects of fluid flow and heat transfer; the sciences of thermodynamics and combustion; and the analysis and design of related systems. Specific areas of concentration include fluids/aerospace engineering; thermal systems engineering; and vehicle engineering.
Technical Portion of Undergraduate Program
Terms 1-4: Required mathematics and science
The required mathematics and science courses are described in the Common Curriculum for the College of Engineering (see the Course Catalog or the Engineering Undergraduate Handbook).
Terms 3 & 4: Fundamental engineering science
Engineering science courses are taken during the sophomore year. All students who plan to enter the Mechanical Engineering (ME) Program take ENGRD 2020 (also MAE 2020) as an engineering distribution course during Term 3. It is strongly recommended that students take ENGRD 2210 (also MAE 2210) in term 3. ENGRD 2210 is a major requirement which may also satisfy Common Curriculum requirements as an engineering distribution course. Students considering affiliation with another major, in addition to ME, usually take the required engineering distribution course for that major in Term 3, rather than ENGRD 2210. In such cases students may delay ENGRD 2210 until the Summer (if offered) or the following term this course is offered.
Terms 4-7: Required courses in Mechanical Engineering
Throughout the program, students are required to take courses that emphasize the engineering design aspects of Mechanical Engineering. These courses include Introduction to Engineering (taken as a first-year student), MAE 2250 Mechanical Synthesis (taken during the sophomore year), MAE 4300 Professional Practice in Mechanical Engineering (taken as a senior), and the required Senior Design elective. Introduction to Mechanical Engineering, ENGRI 1170, is not required to affiliate into Mechanical Engineering.
Terms 7 & 8:
Upper level electives in Mechanical Engineering
The required upper level courses include MAE 3230, 3240, 3250 (not offered after Fall 2016), 3260, 3272 (not offered after Spring 2017), 4272, and MAE 4300 and Supervised Senior Design Experience. MAE 3270 and 3280 will be required for students after 3250 and 3272 are no longer offered. The upper level program also includes a large number of electives (five Major Program Approved Electives and two Advisor Approved Electives) that can be used to build a program with particular emphasis for individual students.

Although the majority of active Americans still did not spend money on sports and recreation in 2011, more active Americans plan to increase spending on fitness than decrease spending in 2012, according to the Physical Activity Council's (PAC) 2012 Participation Report. That spending includes gym memberships.
PAC, a partnership of six trade associations in the sports, fitness and leisure industries, releases an activity report each year, tracking sports, fitness and recreation participation in the United States.
Sixty-nine percent of Americans still do not spend money on gym memberships. However, 6.4 percent plan to spend more on a fitness club membership in 2012 than in 2011 while 3.6 percent plan to spend less and 20.9 percent plan to spend the same.
In 2011, for those who spent money on a club membership, 20.8 percent spent more than in 2010, 18.1 percent spent less and 60.8 spent the same as in 2010.
Even though survey respondents plan to spend more on fitness in 2012, the number of inactive Americans (defined as those who did not participate in any high-calorie burning activities) increased in 2011 to 68.2 million compared to 67.2 million in 2010.
Breaking that figure down by ages, inactivity among children ages 6 to 12 fell slightly from 4.6 million people in 2010 to 4.5 million in 2011, but inactivity in adults ages 18 and older rose from 58.7 million in 2010 to 60 million in 2011.
Despite these numbers, 217 million Americans are considered active, meaning they participated in at least one of the 119 sports and activities measured.
Fitness sports remained the most popular physical activity. The participation rate held steady at 60 percent for the fourth year in a row. Fitness activities such as yoga, boot camp-style training and other classes continued to drive this set of activities.
"The 2012 Participation Report shows very clearly there's a lot more work that needs to take place to get Americans more active," said Tom Cove, president and CEO of the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association. "With 68.1 million people totally inactive, part of the country's national agenda to reduce obesity and get health care costs in line has to include a component that addresses ways to get people off their couches and moving."
The report measures overall levels of activity and identifies trends in 119 specific sports, fitness and recreation activities. The report was conducted by Sports Marketing USA, and the findings are based on an annual online survey of more than 38,000 Americans ages 6 and older.

The nation lost one of the greatest speech writers of all time yesterday with the death of Lincoln, Nebraska native Ted Sorensen. Sorensen graduated from Lincoln High School. He was one of the inner circle in the administration of President John F. Kennedy. The most memorable quotes of JFK were penned by Nebraskan Sorensen.
I was fortunate to meet Mr. Sorensen after he spoke at the Lied Center in Lincoln two years ago. No genealogy connection here, but as a Nebraskan, he played an important role in America's history. This video obituary was compiled by another Lincolnite and Lincoln High School graduate, Sean Patrick Farrell.
Here's a summary of Mr. Sorensen's life from his hometown paper, as only writer/reporter Don Walton can do justice.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — A Mexican newspaper began encouraging soccer fans to cast a voodoo hex on the United States ahead of Wednesday's World Cup qualifier in Columbus, Ohio.
Readers of the Record could trade in coupons for voodoo-doll likenesses of U.S. players at Blockbuster video stores in Mexico City on Friday. Fans were instructed to use the doll to wish for a Mexico goal.
"Hold a needle firmly between your thumb and index finger and prick slowly the part of the doll where you want to affect the opponent," the instructions say. The back of the doll's jersey read, "Gringos."
Record calls the dolls Mexico's "secret weapon."
U.S.-based electronics retailer RadioShack dropped out as a distribution partner last week after learning details of the campaign. But Record managed to find U.S.-based Blockbuster as a new co-sponsor.
Record spokesman Daniel Paz said the promotion was a lighthearted attempt at helping Mexico, which hasn't beaten the Americans on U.S. soil since 1999.
"In soccer, training and practice are what determine the results. The best team will win," Paz said. "But without any doubt this little doll can help the good vibes of the Mexican fans to change the history of Mexico and turn things around."
In a Blockbuster to pick up one of the dolls, Mauricio Munoz didn't believe it will have any benefit for Mexico.
"But," he said, "it's a good way to have fun."

If by part time you mean few hours/weekly, you could probably find that by cobbling together some private language school work plus private students, but it will definitely be hard to make ends meet. Have you got accomodations in these three cities? If you are considering something like living with friends/relatives then it could be do-able. Your online cert is quite a disadvantage in the entire European region....most everyone on this job market has CELTA or equivalent. Where is your previous experience?

The classroom approaches and methods are somewhat different, as is the role of students and their expectations. You might really consider beefing up your CV with a CELTA - I think you will be at some disadvantage with only the online cert and Korea experience in comparison to most teachers on the job market in this region. It's a bit of an investment, but not too extreme - should pay off over the period of a year or two. Cheapest way would likely be to find a CELTA in the city where you decide to live/work, or to choose some provider in a really cheap country before you get back to Europe, if you're not here already. I'm sure there is part time work available in all the cities you mention-I'd pick the one with the best current economy, though - and that might not be Brussels. It's likely the 'poorest' of the three cities you mention in terms of wages.

Reds can't back quality start from Arroyo vs. Mariners
CINCINNATI -- The longest-tenured player on the Reds, pitcher Bronson Arroyo has been around long enough to know it's getting to the point where his team can't afford losing games they're supposed to win.
Not only did a 3-1 Reds loss to the Mariners leave an empty feeling on Sunday, it was compounded by the dropping of two of three in the series. It was the first time all season that 39-49 Seattle won back-to-back road series.View Full Game Coverage
CINCINNATI -- The longest-tenured player on the Reds, pitcher Bronson Arroyo has been around long enough to know it's getting to the point where his team can't afford losing games they're supposed to win.
Not only did a 3-1 Reds loss to the Mariners leave an empty feeling on Sunday, it was compounded by the dropping of two of three in the series. It was the first time all season that 39-49 Seattle won back-to-back road series.View Full Game Coverage
"We're either going to have to get really hot real here soon, or a couple of teams in our division have to get really cold," said Arroyo, referring to the National League Central's top two teams in the Pirates and Cardinals.
Third-place Cincinnati, which entered the day 3 1/2 games behind Pittsburgh, has a 35-12 record vs. sub-.500 clubs and are 30-16 at Great American Ball Park. The Reds came into the series winners of three straight games vs. the Giants.
Those records should have played in their favor, but the young Mariners -- who had just beaten the Rangers at Texas in two of three games -- clearly had different plans.
"I think they played good. I think we didn't play to our capabilities," third baseman Todd Frazier said. "We have to put more runs up, especially against the guy we faced in [Joe] Saunders that's not overpowering. We have to find a way to win that game. This is one you look back on, just confused and just wondering what we could have done to win."
Arroyo had a quality start, as he gave up three runs and five hits, including two home runs, over his six innings, with one walk and six strikeouts.
For the third straight game, the Mariners -- who had eight lefties or switch-hitters in the lineup against Arroyo -- used a first-inning home run to jump out in front quickly. This time, it was No. 2 batter Nick Franklin who hit a solo homer to right field on a 1-2 pitch. Seattle has a Major League-best 22 first-inning home runs this season.
"You can't just lay it in there against guys you don't know anything about," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "After you learn something about them -- they've already homered off of you. They've got a good, young bunch of guys. They're going to be something to deal with in the next couple of years."
In the third inning, following a Kyle Seager one-out walk, Justin Smoak sent a first-pitch offering into the left-field seats for a two-out, two-run homer and a three-run Seattle lead.
The long balls marked homers Nos. 235 and 236 hit against Arroyo with the Reds, which broke the all-time club record held by Tom Browning. Of course, Browning never pitched in homer-happy Great American Ball Park.
"You take every home run I've ever given up in this ballpark and stick me in San Francisco, maybe I only give up two-thirds of them," Arroyo said. "That's life here. It obviously swings both ways so you can't be so disappointed by it."
Arroyo retired the next nine in a row and 10 of his final 11 batters. Unlike the Reds' 13-4 win over the Mariners on Saturday, there was little in the way of offensive cavalry to take back the game.
"I was never really in a groove today," Arroyo said. "It was just a hard-fought battle for me. Eight left-handed guys, I didn't have the sharpest of stuff. I was having to throw a lot of max-effort pitches. I knew we were down three already and the flow of the game wasn't feeling conducive to us putting four on the board any time soon. I was taking every inning like it was do-or-die for me just to give us an opportunity to come back in the ballgame."
Saunders, who came in 0-2 with a 6.04 ERA in four career starts vs. the Reds, pitched seven innings with six hits allowed. He kept Cincinnati scoreless until the seventh.
The Reds hit three first-inning singles and still came away scoreless. Shin-Soo Choo was promptly erased following a leadoff single when Zack Cozart grounded into a double play. Singles by Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips followed before Jay Bruce grounded into a fielder's choice to end the inning -- the first of 11 in a row retired by Saunders and 16 of 17.
"I thought we'd manage more than one run off of him," Baker said. "We were very satisfied with the job Bronson gave us. Three runs, especially off of that total left-handed lineup."
There was one out in the Reds' seventh when Frazier laced a double to the wall in right-center field and scored on next batter Chris Heisey's second double of the game, a liner towards the left-field corner. Heisey was left stranded when Ryan Hanigan and pinch-hitter Derrick Robinson grounded out.
"I think it definitely hurts a bit," Arroyo said of the series outcome. "It's getting to that point in the season where you're starting to see the numbers stack up. Your ERA and batting average settle in now. You're getting enough at-bats, enough innings where things aren't going to move too much. It gets harder to make moves. It's starting to get to that point in the standings as well."

Heidi Montag, famous for … for … something … oh, right: being in a reality show starring someone else and marrying (or maybe not marrying) a young man with an appetite for fame exceeded in size only by his ego, insists she's not addicted to plastic surgery, telling ABC's Good Morning America, "If you're addicted to something, you have to do it all the time, not once every couple years, if even." So there you go. The definition of addiction to plastic surgery is getting it at a frequency greater than once every year or so.
A recent cover story about Montag in People magazine tells of her head-to-toe makeover that consisted of ten procedures in one day (on top of the procedures she had earlier). Surgeon Frank Ryan, who has taken some criticism for basically reconstructing an entirely new Heidi from the original 23-year-old chassis, insists that "These are little tweaks and things we did. … These were all kind of small things."
He may be pressed into service again, however, as Montag, who is now equipped with triple-D sized breasts told Extra that she may want to go bigger still, saying, "F. I like the F. I actually want H for Heidi."

Jiri Tlusty scores the winner, Hurricanes beat the Devils 4-2NHL.com @NHLdotcom
NEWARK, N.J. - Jiri Tlusty scored the two goals in the third period and Cam Ward made 26 saves as the Carolina Hurricanes beat New Jersey 4-2 on Tuesday night, snapping the Devils' five-game winning streak.
Jussi Jokinen and Patrick Dwyer also scored for Carolina, which went 4-1-1 to conclude a six-game road trip.
With Carolina on the power play, Tlusty flipped a shot toward the net that bounced off Devils defenceman Bryce Salvador and over goalie Martin Brodeur at 7:25. Eric Stall picked up an assist, extending his point-scoring streak to 10 games.
Tlusty later added an empty-netter to seal the win.
Ilya Kovalchuk and Ryan Carter scored for the Eastern Conference-leading Devils, who lost in regulation for the first time at home this season (5-1-1). New Jersey had won seven straight at home against Carolina.
Third period heroics have become Tlusty's specialty.
On Monday, he scored two goals and four points in the third period to lead Carolina to 6-4 win over the New York Islanders.
The Hurricanes, the Southeast Division leaders, started the game with good energy, even though they played the night before on Long Island. Carolina used the kind of strong forechecking pressure that the Devils favour and took an early 8-3 shot advantage. Brodeur held his ground, fending off good scoring tries by Alexander Semin, Jeff Skinner and Joni Pitkanen.
The Devils broke through with the game's first goal at 15:59 as Kovalchuk drew a penalty and then scored the power-play goal ??? with an assist from the video replay.
Kovalchuk cranked a shot from the blue line that hit the back of the net and bounced back into play as the referees signalled no goal, believing the puck had hit the crossbar.
Play continued for about three minutes. When replay officials got the opportunity to review, they confirmed that the goal had been scored.
It was the third goal in the last four games for Kovalchuk.
The Hurricanes also started the second period strongly, and this time they were rewarded as Jokinen got a power-play goal at 1:36.
Major credit on the score went to Joe Corvo, who faked a shot from the point that most of the Devils, including Brodeur, overplayed to the left side. Instead of firing, Corvo slid a pass to Jokinen, all alone in the right circle with a wide-open net to hit.
It was Jokinen's first goal of the season.
Dwyer gave the Hurricanes a 2-1 lead with 1:31 left in the period, deflecting Jay Harrison's point shot.
Trailing for only the third time coming into the third period this season, the Devils came out storming with Ward stopping David Clarkson right on his doorstep in the opening seconds.
New Jersey kept buzzing in the Carolina zone and the pressure paid off as Justin Faulk coughed up the puck in the Hurricanes' zone and Carter backhanded the turnover past Ward at 1:34 to tie the game at 2.
And then Tlusty took over
NOTES: Former Devils captain Kirk Muller returned to New Jersey for the first time as the head coach of the Hurricanes. It was also the first game back for former Devils player and head coach John MacLean, now an assistant to Muller....D Mark Fayne was in the Devils starting lineup despite missing the morning skate due to a death in the family....The Hurricanes had last won here on March 28, 2009.

Vermont Cheese Bread
Today was ChiliFest at the State Public Defender's Office. My friend Cathy is the unofficial Social Director of our office, and every now and then, she just has to have some kind of party. Today was a chili pot luck, with Ngoc bringing Havana chili, Andrea whipping up a turkey chili, Jodie with a healthy eggplant-based chili, and Cathy herself bringing a giant crockput of your regular hamburger and kidney bean variety. Ben was supposed to be responsible for the white chicken chili, but his kids were being difficult last night, and he opted to get some sleep instead of stirring chili. Probably not an unreasonable choice. Sara made corn muffins, and I brought cheese bread. There were plenty of desserts: a chocolate-coconut bundt cake, and bars galore (in Minnesota, there is a separate category of dessert called "bars," which is pronounced sort of like "barse.") All potlucks in Minnesota have barse for dessert, and ours was no exception: Toll House, lemon cheesecake, ginger, and brownies. The non-cooks had the option of bringing drinks or condiments.
I turned to the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day book again, and I was impressed with the results. I made the dough Tuesday night and it sat in the refrigerator until this morning. At 7:00 a.m., I dumped it out on the counter.
The master recipe is supposed to make four loaves, so I cut it in half, figuring I'd make one loaf for ChiliFest and another one this weekend. When I divided the dough in half, though, I realized that it made very small loaves, so I changed my plan: I'd bake both loaves this morning and bring the leftovers home for us.
I've had mixed success with the method where you slide the bread from the pizza peel directly on the hot baking stone, but this time it worked, and I didn't burn my hand in the process either.
However, once the breads were in the oven, I realized that I'd completely forgotten to slash the breads with my cute little French knife, so when I turned on the oven loaf to see how they were doing, I saw that they had developed slashes au naturel.
I blame this on my having only one cup of coffee, which was half decaf; this clearly did not provide enough caffeine to get me through an entire recipe without a mistake. And I had even spent a considerable amount of time deciding what slashing pattern I would use. Aha, I thought to myself, in a glass-half-full kind of way, this provides me with a challenge--can I go through the entire day without announcing to everyone that I had screwed up the bread? Almost. I told only one person, and she seemed completely uninterested in my mistake. For the rest of the day, if someone said something about the bread, I just smiled and said not a single word about how it was supposed to have been slashed decoratively.
Oh, and that plan to bring home the leftover bread? It didn't happen. As some of you may know, the fact that something is eaten when it's brought into the communal kitchen in an office doesn't necessarily mean that the food is good; it just means that it was there. But in this case, the bread actually was good. The extra-sharp aged cheddar gave the bread a distinctive, delicious flavor, but it wasn't gooey and greasy as some cheese breads are. It was a perfect complement to four different kinds of chili, but would be good with almost any soup and would probably be an excellent sandwich bread too.
I'm going to include a shortened version of the four-loaf recipe, but I'll put in a plug for buying the book, especially if you, like me, just like to read cookbooks. First, all the recipes are based on a particular method, and it's useful to read about the method before tackling a bread. Second, you may have better luck with some recipes than others. The first bread I tried from this book was too salty, because I hadn't followed my own advice and read through the entire method before trying a recipe--all the recipes advise the use of kosher salt, and I used table salt; two teaspoons of table salt is a lot more salt than two teaspoons of kosher salt. The second recipe, a rye bread, was fine but not spectacular. A buttermilk bread that I tried next was excellent, as have been the brioche and cheddar breads. That's a good enough percentage to justify purchase of the book, I think, especially if you relish the idea of having bread dough on the ready in the refrigerator.
Vermont Cheddar Bread
3 c. lukewarm water
1 1/2 T. instant yeast
1 1/2 T. kosher salt
1 1/2 T. sugar
6 1/2 c. unbleached all-purpose flour
1 c. good quality sharp, aged Cheddar
1. Mix all ingredients, either by hand, or using the dough hook of a heavy-duty mixer. You don't have to knead; just make sure all flour is incorporated. This is a wet dough.
2. Cover, not airtight, and let rest at room temperature about two hours. Dough should rise and start to collapse. Refrigerate in a covered (but not airtight) container, and use within 7 days. (I made the bread on the third day and it had a very slight tanginess).
3. On baking day, cut off a one-pound, grapefruit-sized piece of dough. Dust with flour and shape into a ball. Allow to rest and rise on a cornmeal-covered pizza peel for one hour.
4. Preheat oven to 450, putting a broiler pan or cookie tray (with sides) on the bottom of the oven or the lowest shelf, and a baking stone on the lowest or next-t-the-lowest shelf--depending on where the pan is.
5. Just before baking, slash the bread with a razor or sharp knife. Or not.
6. Slide loaf directly on the hot stone. Pour one cup hot water into the broiler tray and close the oven door. Bake for about 25 minutes.

Now that I am locked up here at the Ski lodge in Checkendon, I should try this 5 minute artisan bread that has been all the rage.
That bread looks quite beautiful with it's au naturel slash.
Cheese bread sounds like good comfort food for here at the lodge.
Although I'm always a bit nervous using recipes written in volume, I think I will give this one a go! It looks so good and seems EASY(famous last words!!). Like Melinda, I am more or less a prisoner in the house, we have quite a it of snow, for us anyway, but the main reason being that our roads are not so good, only the main ones have been cleared. The cost of machinery to keep our roads clear is too much for little ole Britain! Jeannette.
- breadbasketcase said...
Yes, and if you use Vermont cheddar, you could pretend you were at a Vermont ski lodge, although that might not be as romantic as the Checkendon Chalet.
- breadbasketcase said...
Sorry I was too lazy to convert the measurements to weight. The only thing that irritates about this cookbook is the lack of weight measurements. That was the cause of my too-salty bread, which I believe I ranted about at some length in my original post.
Minnesota is pretty good about keeping the roads clear of snow, but at this point in the season, the roads are filled with mammoth potholes caused by the freezing and thawing, so it's still dangerous driving.
The bread really is easy.
- evil cake lady said...
Marie, good for you for not telling everyone about your plans for slashing the bread! I actually like the au naturel slashes. You lawyers sure know how to throw down at an office party! Makes me wish I worked in an office.
- breadbasketcase said...
You could be the official doula for our office, which has been very fertile in the last few years, and, as such, you would be invited to all the potlucks.
- Doughadear said...
I think I may just go out and purchase this book. The cheese bread looks so good, very artisan like. How great to have a ChiliFest at work to bring some fun to the work place. This is a good time of year for chili, when it is cold outside and you want to stay warm inside. I made chili for Superbowl Sunday and it was very good accompanied with Rose's Best Buns which I make regularly. The recipe for the buns was in the Washington Post, May 23, 2007 in case you are interested. If you can't find it I'll send it to you.
- breadbasketcase said...
Thanks. I just found the recipe and printed it out. It looks wonderful; I'm going to save it for our first hamburger barbecue of the season--which I may have to push a little in order to make these buns. Right now, though, the Weber is still covered with snow. Do you include the mixed seeds in the dough?
- Doughadear said...
I've made the recipe with the seeds but usually make them without. I make these almost on a weekly basis. I shape them into 72gr portions, roll them in a round balls and place them into a 13 x 9 pan. When they have risen ready for baking I brush them with milk and sprinkle half of them with sesame seeds and the other half with poppy seeds for some variations. Then I slash each bun and bake. They are really really good. I'll send you a picture.
- Melinda said...
Marie, I made the cheese bread for dinner this evening. Of course, I had a hard time finding Vermont Cheese here so I just had to use regular old deepest and darkest Oxfordshire cheese that was to hand!
It was delicious and I am looking forward to using up the rest of my dough.
It's really puffed up in the fridge already. I hope it doesn't overflow in the night! (hmm, that 1 1/2 instant yeast is a Tablespoon, right?)
- breadbasketcase said...
Yes, it's a tablespoon and a half--a lot of yeast! It bubbles and burbles even in the refrigerator, but I don't think it will spill out and take over. It sounds like it could be a horror movie--The Cheese bread that ate Checkendon!
I suppose you didn't forget to slash it prettily?
- Lillie said...
Is there an alternative to using a baking stone? I don't have one, but this bread is calling my name :)
- Lillie said...
- This comment has been removed by the author.
I am glad that you started posting recipes. I think people read blogs for the stories AND the recipes. I had stopped reading your blog for a while but now i'm back and I'll be trying some of these recipes.
- breadbasketcase said...
The baking stone helps form a crust, especially on free-form breads, but it's not necessary. You'll still get a good loaf of bread just putting it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
That's good to know. I sometimes wonder if I'm wasting my time typing out the recipes, but I'm glad to do it if it's helpful. Some of the books have so much explanation, though, that a single recipe doesn't seem to do the book justice.
- Bunny said...
You are a riot I love reading your blog! I made some of this dough up, it's in the fridge and will be baked off tomorrow, yours looks so darn good! My hubby was hungry for pizza yesterday and since I had this dough mixed up I took a hunk off and make pizza with it, it's not the dough for pizza but I did it anyway. I'm such a rebel. Anyway, it wasn't as elastic as the pizza dough would be , it took a little He said it was nice and soft! bit to get it stretched out to a , probably medium size pizza and baked it. Hubby loved it!!
- Lillie said...
Thanks! I just baked homemade bread for the first time last weekend and I want to try another recipe this weekend. This Vermont Cheese Bread is the front runner at this time.
- breadbasketcase said...
I don't think it would have occurred to me to use it for pizza dough. I'll bet that even if it wasn't quite traditional, it still had a good taste.
Congratuations! I hope you enjoyed the results and keep on baking--you'll like the cheese bread.
- pinknest said...
brioche and cheddar breads?! *sigh* you had me at...bread.
- jini said...
i'm back from warm and now it's melting and pretty ugly here. brown is not so purty as white! sorry the brits are snowbound.....is that from work too i wonder? that would make it better.
i confess that i forgot to slash one time too. i was concentrating on the cornmeal on the peel and heating the stone and forgot the slash. oh well. it was still yummy.
- breadbasketcase said...
Melting is never ugly--it's a harbinger of spring! If forgetting to slash the top of the bread were the worst mistake I ever made, I'd be happy. Welcome back!
- jini said...
thanks for the welcome back. :) you have a lot more faith than i if you think melt is a sign of spring. our "lake" out by the shed is frozen again today and i imagine we are still due several inches of snow before we see spring. does that mean my cup is half empty?
- breadbasketcase said...
It must mean that you don't hate winter as much as I do--I have to give myself a lot of encouragement to keep from sinking into winter depression.
If you go to the website for the book, it has a list of "errors"; the most important one of which is using TWO (2) tablespoons of yeast throughout the book when it calls for "1 1/2".
I hated to bake bread; even with the bread machine doing most of the work. I just did not enjoy it and was convinced I was missing the "bread gene".
After this book, not only do I bake bread a minimum of twice a week, but I'm really loving it! I read a lot of comments about not only this book, but others on Amazon which is where I came across the website and the list of "errors". There aren't many "errors", but the amount of yeast is a biggie. The website also has additional adaptations and recipes.
This book makes it so easy. It's almost embarrassing the kudos I get - even after I tell people how easy it is.
Hope this helps and all the best! Barbara
- breadbasketcase said...
Thanks for pointing out the "errors" section on the web site. It would be maddening to go through all the edits for a cookbook and then discover you'd still made mistakes! You've written a great testimonial for this book--they should put you on the cover for the next edition.
Actually Anonymous misread the correction in the error section. This is what it says:
Throughout the book we call for "1 1/2 tablespoons of yeast (1 1/2 packets)." It should read "1 1/2 tablespoons of yeast (2 packets)."
The recipe in the book calls for putting the stone on the lowest shelf but I did that with my first cheese loaf and it almost burned in 20 minutes. I have two more loaves ready to go into the oven and I'm putting the stone a bit higher up this time.
- breadbasketcase said...
You're right--that makes more sense now that I think about it because otherwise the yeast amount would be significantly off in every one of their recipes. I put the bread on the lowest shelf--with some trepidation--but when I use the convection bake setting on my oven, I've had almost no problems with burning.
- Jenny said...
Like Jackie, I can't put my stone on the lowest rack. I did it once and the bottom burned. I figured out the "2 packs of yeast" error a couple of weeks ago after measuring it when one and a half packs didn't seem to be enough yeast.
- breadbasketcase said...
I can't say enough good things about my convection oven--it has virtually made burnt loaves a thing of the past. (Knock on wood).
Thanks for this excellent recipe! I've made 2 loaves thus far from one recipe and the rest is still in the refrigerator. I, like others, don't have a baking stone or pizza peel so I had to improvise. I plonked the dough into a bread pan, let it rise and baked it as per a "normal" loaf. Absolutely delish I tell you. Think that I'll have this sitting around on a daily basis :)
Keep them coming.....we appreciate it. Carey, South Africa.

For the same money, which one is better value?
Some people will only buy vehicles new. Others never would. But this pairing might make those clear-cut positions a little less clear. Because many would hanker after a Land Rover Discovery Sport even though they know they don't have north of £30,000 to spend and they'd balk at the initial depreciation. But one two years old for £25,000 would be tempting. Or would it be more tempting than another seven-seater SUV, one with even more style it, and brand new to boot? Let's find out.
There's one area where the Land Rover takes an instant and clear lead. It's a Land Rover and the other one isn't. That means that if you want to back up those go-anywhere SUV looks, it's the Discovery Sport that will get you there, while the Peugeot 5008 will endeavour to look stylish and insouciant while spinning its wheels and going nowhere.
Peugeot 5008 1.2 PureTech 130 Allure
Price: £26,295
Engine: 1.2-litre, three-cylinder, turbo petrol
Power: 128bhp
0-62mph: 10.9sec
Top speed: 117mph
Economy: 55.4mpg
CO2 emissions: 117g/km
Front-wheel drive against four-wheel drive, backed up by decades of experience at conquering remote parts of the world – no contest. But on the road, which is where most will spend all of their days, the Peugeot makes a good case for itself. The ride is remarkably comfortable, absorbing the normal road surface, which does actually resemble a ploughed field, with some finesse. The Discovery Sport isn't bad at all, but rougher surfaces do get through – it's worth checking a used model isn't fitted with the larger wheels as they make things worse.
Equally the ambience inside the French vehicle is very relaxed, thanks to a quiet, smooth and free-revving petrol engine. It may only be 1.2 litres but it seems more than enough to propel the 5008 forward with some elan. This along with 55.4mpg claimed means the Peugeot is very relaxing to drive, and economical too.
The Discovery Sport has more low-down grunt thanks to the 2.0-litre diesel engine, but there's a definite lack of sparkle to it. Stirring it along with a six-speed manual box, you make decent progress but it feels a bit stolid and leisurely even if you want to get a shuffle on. There's a touch of vibration through the controls, as well, and all that comes with worse claimed fuel consumption, at 53.3mpg.
Inside, apart from the minor vibration, the Land Rover occupants will get a fully sorted interior resplendent with the sort of luxurious charm that only the English seem to do in that way. The heated front seats have excellent part leather, and there's plenty of standard kit like dual-zone climate control, cruise control and more, even in this lower SE trim.
Second row space is adequate, although getting three across wouldn't do for a long journey. Third row passenger space is definitely on the cramped side. It all feels very conventional and standard, something reinforced by the driver's position with its normal dials. Everything is simple to use and feels well made and there's a thought that this really ought to do to beat a French vehicle from a brand hardly renowned for high-quality cabins.
And then you sit in the Peugeot and remember just how far this brand has moved forward. Okay, you might expect a bit of style, but there's tons of it, everywhere. This is a smart, stylish cabin with some imagination on show. Not only that, but the quality has really moved forward, to the extent that actually it feels better built than the Land Rover.
Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0 TD4 180 SE
Price new: £32,665
Price today: £25,000
Engine: 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel
Power: 178bhp
0-62mph: 9.4sec
Top speed: 117mph
Economy: 53.3mpg
CO2 emissions: 139g/km
Price today is based on a 2015 model with average mileage and a full service history
The LCD screen in front of the driver can be configured to personal choice, and there's a wealth of deep, soft plastics and fine trim. Head rearward and you find far more space than in the Discovery Sport, particularly in the second row, but the third row is comfy and the boot simply enormous.
In Allure (a trim level best thought of as said by Inspector Clouseau), you get dual-zone climate control, parking sensors, auto lights and wipers, cruise control, sat nav, rear camera, privacy glass, safety kit and a long list more.
So we have two apparently similar but very different vehicles for £25,000. One point is that quite a bit of the depreciation will already have burned off the Discovery Sport, and is yet to start flaming the value of the new Peugeot. In a few years' time the Land Rover might well be worth more than the 5008. On the other hand you're more likely to find a finance deal with the Peugeot and it will usually be cheaper.
And you'll get a three-year warranty as opposed to the one-year warranty left on the two-year-old Land Rover. Which brings us to reliability. Peugeot does not have a good reputation, being only four from last in a recent reliability survey. The 5008 is too new to figure, but that's worth bearing in mind. So where does that leave Land Rover? Second to last, even worse. In that survey the Discovery Sport came 25th out of 27th in the large SUV category, meaning you may well want to invest in a beefed-up warranty.
So that's not very clear cut is it? There are pros and cons for each, with neither taking a clear win. You'll have to weigh up the positives and negatives and see which one works for you, based on the information you now have. Bonne chance (and that's not a subliminal hint.)

The Lady Bucs had five players finish in double figures with freshman Siarre Evans (
The Lady Bucs jumped out to an early 7-2 lead, but the Mountaineers quickly answered and kept the game close for the first nine minutes of the first half. ETSU then went on a 13-5 run, to open up a 24-15 lead with 11:13 remaining in the half. The Mountaineers closed the gap to within one, 27-26, but that is as close as they would get. ETSU finished out the final 8:31 of the first half on a 29-13 run, taking a 56-39 lead into the locker room.
At the break, Wilhoit who was a perfect 4-of-4 from the field ended the half with 15 points. The 56 points in the half were the most points by the Lady Bucs since Feb. 4, 2004, when they scored 50 in the second half against Davidson.
The Mountaineers came out of the break on fire, as they only needed thirty-two seconds to cut the Lady Bucs lead to 56-46. From there Appalachian State would get to within five, 60-55, with 14:31 remaining, but the Lady Bucs would hold the Mountaineers to only five points in the next four and a half minutes to open up to a 20-point advantage at, 80-60, with 10:01 to go in the contest. Appalachian State would not go away as they went on a 19-6 run, cutting the Lady Bucs lead to 86-79 at the 5:18 mark. However, the Lady Bucs proved they wanted the game more by closing out the final 5:00 minutes on an 18-8 run, picking up their first victory of the season.
Appalachian State also had five players end in double figures with Maria Grimes finishing with a career-high 22 points. The Lady Bucs finished the game shooting 47.2 percent (34-72) from the field, compared to 39.0 percent (30-77) by the Mountaineers. ETSU outrebounded its opponent for the first time this season with a 51-40 advantage, and made 29 free-throws to Appalachian State's 16. The Lady Bucs improve to 1-3 on the early season, while the Mountaineers fall to 2-2.
The Lady Bucs will look to win back-to-back games as they host

In the Wall Street Journal, Jason Gay manages to turn the Brett Favre saga into a source of humor. Here, for example, Gay seeks to overcome his resentment of the drama involved in the current rerun of Favre's return from retirement:
[N]o one has been hurt here. This [is] not an arrest or a positive test. Mr. Favre's faux retirements are less an affront than a musty punch line, like Larry King's marriages or Tiger Woods's cell phone. He is the boy who cried Metamucil. Heyoooo!
This country has a high tolerance for mindless repetition. We've endured four iterations of the Fast and the Furious and twelve Friday the 13ths. CBS is remaking Hawaii Five-0.
Athletes are the worst offenders, of course. Air Jordan came back twice. Roger Clemens relaunched three times. Boxers never quit, even in the afterlife. (The MGM Grand would still book Max Schmeling.) The most recent Super Bowl halftime show was played by The Who, a band that first said farewell in 1982, when Mr. Favre was 13.
Gay warmed up for this column with a shorter item on August 4. There he mapped out the stages of the emotions related to Favre's drama a little like the stages of grief. First comes denial: "Don't invite us to anything Favre-related, Favre-tastic or Favre-ulous. We're shutting it down." He entertained the thought that Favre would return based on the ending of his season last January in the NFC championship game against the Saints: "After a great season, it was an ugly denouement, a grim example of not knowing when to quit. Not as ugly as Willie Mays on the '73 Mets, or that Rod Stewart album of Cole Porter songs, but ugly."

Anonymous gift establishes Distinguished Business Scholar program at Emporia StateNovember 21, 2013
During the past few months, several announcements of major gifts to Emporia State University's comprehensive fund-raising campaign have been met with celebrations introducing those making the gifts and expressing gratitude for their generosity.
While another substantial gift to Now & Forever: The Campaign for Emporia State University was celebrated Thursday, Nov. 21, its giver has chosen to remain unidentified.
"We are celebrating an anonymous $200,000 campaign gift which, when coupled with nearly $200,000 this donor has given previously, will establish a Distinguished Business Scholar program at Emporia State," said Jennifer Denton, Emporia State Foundation vice president for stewardship and administration.
"This same individual is also making a generous planned gift to bring the endowed scholarship fund to $1 million. This elegant giving strategy enables the new program to begin today and to grow in the future," Denton added.
Emporia State representatives gathered at Silent Joe, the bell tower southeast of Welch Stadium, to ring the bell Thursday afternoon. As an audible icon of the Now & Forever campaign, the bell sounds when significant gifts and other successes are celebrated.
"This scholarship will have a profound impact on our students and our educational profile in the School of Business at Emporia State," said Kristie Ogilvie, dean. "We thank the donor, who recognizes academic excellence that must be rewarded and celebrated in today's competitive environment. Truly, this scholarship opportunity will change the lives of our students."
"This anonymous gift precisely reflects the spirit of the Now & Forever campaign," said DenaSue Potestio, Foundation President/CEO. "Right now, the cash gifts establish a prestigious scholarship program to recognize outstanding business majors entering their senior year. The planned gift signifies the 'forever' component of our transformational campaign."
"This donor is now a member of our Kellogg Society, joining 190 other living alumni and friends who have notified us of their intention to make a planned gift," said Denton.
"Even though the giver has chosen to remain anonymous, this gift is perfect evidence of the momentum we're building as part of the Now & Forever campaign," said Dr. Michael D. Shonrock, president.
Emporia State's School of Business has recently benefitted from a $100,000 gift supporting strategic marketing initiatives.
Now & Forever: The Campaign for Emporia State University is a five- to seven-year effort with a working goal of $45 million. To date, the campaign has recorded gifts and pledges of $19.8 million to support student scholarships, academic departments and initiatives that advance Emporia State's mission to recruit students, teach and retain them, encourage them to graduate with lower levels of student debt, and ultimately put them on a path to a solid career.
For more information about opportunities to give to the Now & Forever campaign, contact DenaSue Potestio at 620-341-5440.

Welcome to Dragons' Cove!Once a very active forum, now more of a sleepy town that we log on to from time to time with the odd post here and there.If you want to talk to us or even join us, please be our guest, though for the foreseeable future it's going to be quiet here! On the other hand, we still adore our lore and will preserve this site as best as we can.Feel free to talk to us in our guest chatbox below. If you're a member, you can use the chatbox at the very bottom of the page.
An island (that is more of a continent) that is completely cut off from the world it is placed in. If the foreigners are anything to go by, it may be the only innately magical part of the world, feeding out to other areas. It has a delicate balance, and its nature changes depending on the actions of its inhabitants. This makes it either perfectly pleasant or bitterly brutal to live on, depending on your era. Explore its history with caution, but take time to stop and appreciate it as well.
