Whole Wheat Bread
You know how I'm always saying that all you have to do to cook is know how to read? Well, maybe I'm not always saying it, but I sometimes say it, and baking this bread taught me again that all you have to do to screw something up is not read the directions. Aside from baking scones, sticky rolls, chocolate babka, and sour cream coffee cake, I've been on a healthy-eating quest this year, which meant that I had to up the whole grain quotient in the breads I've made. This one is from one of my Christmas books, Bread, by Jeffrey Hamelman.
This book is unusual because it's really directed at least as much to the professional baker as the home baker, and each recipe tells you how to make, say, 25 loaves as well as 2 or 3. No, that's not the mistake I made--even in a caffeine-deprived state, I would think something was amiss if tried to mix up 20 pounds of flour.
But the book's ingredient sections for individual recipes are divided into three sections: Overall Formula, Pate Fermentee (or Levain), and Final Dough. This is too much information for me. What do I care about the overall formula? I just want to know how to mix things together.
I made the Pate Fermentee Friday night--no problem.
And by Saturday morning, it was nicely bubbling and ready to mix in the rest of the dough.
That's where I was done in by the Overall Formula section. So instead of mixing in 1 lb., .6 ounces of water, I poured in 1 lb., 5.8 ounces. As I kept pouring, and pouring, and pouring, I finally said doubtfully to myself, this seems like an awful lot of water. So I looked at the recipe again and saw my mistake. So there I was with a pound of whole wheat flour, a pound a bread flour, and a ton of water. I thought of possible ways to rescue the situation, but they were all too messy and complicated, so I just dumped the whole mess out.
And it was a mess. Have you ever tried to put a couple of pounds of gluey glop in the garbage disposal?
I was so disheartened that I almost gave up on the idea of baking bread this weekend, but there was my pate fermentee, cheerfully bubbling away, so I decided to give it another go. This time I used a blank piece of paper to cover up the "overall formula" section so I couldn't even see it, but I was feeling quite put out with Mr. Jeffrey Hamelman.
By the time I'd put the two loaves in bannetons and they'd risen nicely, I was feeling more kindly toward Hamelman and decided he probably didn't pull the wings off flies after all, and might be a perfectly lovely man.
I slashed one banneton and put the other in the oven without any cutting, hoping that it would stay in one piece, and it did. I liked the looks of both of them; really, I'm not sure which is more attractive.
When we ate our slices of still-warm bread, though, I was a bit disappointed--very nice and all, but still, it was just a piece of whole wheat bread.
As I was leafing through the book, I came across a section where Hamelman was rhapsodizing about bread: he said that bad bread tasted good when it was warm, but good bread didn't really come into its own until the second day. Oh, please, I thought. It's not like it's fine wine. But when I had another piece of bread on the second day, I thought he might be on to something: I could taste the slight tang from the pate fermentee and detect the sweetness from the honey. But maybe I just didn't want to claim a loaf of bad bread.
Jeffrey Hamelman's Whole-Wheat Bread
For Pate Fermentee:
8 oz. bread flour
5.2 ounces water
.2 oz. salt (1 tsp.)
1/8 tsp. instant dry yeast
For Final Dough:
1 lb. whole-wheat flour
8 oz. bread flour
1 lb., .6 oz. water
.4 oz. salt (2 tsp.)
.13 oz. instant dry yeast (1 1/4 tsp.)
1 oz. honey
1. The night before baking, mix the pate fermentee. Mix yeast, water, flour, and salt until smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let stand for 12 to 16 hours.
2. When ready to make the bread, place all ingredients for final dough in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer with a dough hook. Mix on low speed about three minutes. As dough starts to come together, add the pate fermentee in chunks. Mix for another three minutes on medium speed.
3. Put in bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for a total of about two hours. After one hour, remove bread from bowl and fold it over. Put back in bowl and cover with wrap.
4. Divide into two pieces and shape into rounds. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest about 15 minutes. Shape into round or oval loaves, or place into floured bannetons. Cover with plastic and let rise another 1 1/2 hours. (The dough can also be put in a loaf pan or shaped into rolls).
5. Transfer the risen loaves onto a baking sheet lined with parchment, or place directly on baking stone. You can add steam either by pouring a cup of boiling water or about 1/2 cup of ice cubes into a pan on a lower shelf of the oven. Bake in a preheated 450-degree oven for 30-40 minutes. Turn heat down by 25 degrees if bread starts to get too brown.

Hi Marie,
Hmmm, this may just be my own feeling, not really backed up by your data, but it seems your Whole Grain Quest is not exactly going without frustration.
I'd like to point you in the direction of a 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich loaf that my not too fond of 100% Whole Wheat family actually likes. It is on the King Arthur Message Board, and was developed by a member named Macy. Her recipe is for a bread machine (which I don't have), but you can just mix it in the usual "making a plain ol' loaf of bread" way.
Getting the recipe is a little complicated, but here you go:
Select Community (at top) then Baking Circle Message Board (on left) then sign in (sigh), then hit the Recipe tab along the top, then select Member Recipes (this is way too complicated, I should have just wrote the thing out for you), then in the Search By Member Screen Name type Macy. You will get a list and the one I think you might like is "Macy's 100% Whole Wheat Bread". Now I need to lie down. Have a great day!

Your have been baking an awful lot! Whole wheat bread is not a favourite of mine but your loaves look so good and I love the design left by the bannetons. I would think that this recipe would also be great with the addition of multi grain cereal and seeds.
- Melinda said...
Hello Marie, It may be just my computer, but the second photo is obscured by the right hand archives column. (You know how I want to see everything properly!)
So, did you break the waste disposal?
Your one slashed bread looks really good...I can't comment on the other one yet!
Oh Marie. ALL your bread looks really good, I can see both loaves perfectly, and like you , I can't choose between them! Unfortunately I didn't have the luck to taste them but I'll take your word for it. I must tell you, I can't remember whether I have done previously, I really enjoy reading your blog, so much so that I have gone back to the beginning to read all through again and I'm loving it second time around.Thank you. Jeannette.

Chris in RI,
Well hello! I found Macy's recipe, thanks to your directions. I've never looked in the member recipes section before--this opens up a whole new source! I did remember two "healthy" breads that I really liked--Rose's flaxseed bread and her honey oatmeal one that's posted on her web site.
I love the bannetons too! But I feel that if I used them every time I made bread, I wouldn't like them as much. I think you're right--sunflower seeds or flaxseed would add some pizzazz to this loaf.
I can see both pictures on my computer, but I switched them around, so maybe now you can see the unslashed one? Miraculously, it didn't break the disposal. When I started using it, though, I was hoping that Jim wouldn't come in and see what I was doing. He is very picky about what is allowed to go down the drain.
Thank YOU!
- Melinda said...
They are both visible on my computer. But everybody else is probably having problems now!
I can see both your loaves are equally beautiful. Bravo!
Ian always walks into the room when just when I am trying to get away with something. It usually involves me getting into his tool kit. He considers that a no go area for me.
If we had a waste disposal, Ian would probably catch me putting something contraband down it, for sure!
- evil cake lady said...
Good for you for trying to eat more whole wheat! I eat hippie bread, so I guess I'm in the minority here.
So, do you really think bread should taste better on the second day?
- pinknest said...
ooh! i love those rings!
- breadbasketcase said...
In fairness to Jim, he is the one who always cleans the drains out when the disposal refuses to accept something. Pineapple, for example. I was relieved that it didn't rebel at the bread dough.
Well, I'm not going to stop eating warm, freshly baked bread, that's for sure. If you like hippie bread, you will love the whole wheat with pecans and golden raisins!
They're adorable, aren't they?
- Cookie baker Lynn said...
Oh, how frustrating. It sounds exactly like the kind of thing I would do. Snaps to you for persevering and making such lovely loaves.
- breadbasketcase said...
Cookie Baker Lynn,
Thanks. I have to admit that I thought maybe this bread just wasn't meant to be, and I probably would have given up--but I already had the pate fermentee made, so on I went.

Be super confident at telesales
We all know that a positive mental attitude is vital to successful telesales. If you make that sales call feeling like a nuisance and expecting your prospect to tell you where to get off then your attitude will transmit to your prospect and will put them off.
If you find yourself becoming increasingly de-motivated with each call and worrying about your tally and record then you need to have a change of feeling and thinking around your calls.
Just like playing a sport such as golf you need to forget the call that went before and forget about the calls to come and just be 'in the moment' with the call that you are making. Forget your tally forget results when you are communicating you are just communicating.
You'll learn to go totally 'in the zone' when making those calls so that past and present disappear and only now exists-the moment of the one and only call you are on.
Imagine naturally making confident sales call after confident sales call. Imagine when you see set backs as temporary and forget the last call whether it was a sell or not and move onto the next.
There are very real persuasion techniques you can learn and make an instinctive part of what you do naturally. Confident teleselling is all about acquiring the right mind set.
This session will focus on getting you relaxed, poised focused calm and effective on the phone.
With confident telesales you'll become better at being compelling and 'painting pictures in your prospects minds' with the words that you use.
You'll have the chance to start building instant rapport with your prospects and focus their mind on the benefits of what you are offering.

Mobile Computing | News
Blackboard's mobile team has taken what's it learned about developing apps for education environments and created a tool that allows non-developers to slam together their own apps. Mosaic, as it's named, is intended to simplify the process of developing an integrated campus program for devices running Apple iOS, Google Android, and web browsers.
The new program lets the institution choose from 14 functions, add custom data, and create a branded interface. The software's backend validates the data and generates the mobile app. Once an app is created, it can be submitted to Apple, Google, and other marketplaces for distribution. Mosaic lets authorized users make updates and track and evaluate usage data to determine what users are going to most among the function set.
App features that can be added include:
One university that has been trying out Mosaic is Loyola Marymount University, which offers iLMU Mobile. "Mobile apps have become a mainstream channel for people to get information about LMU, and the quality of our app reflects strongly on the caliber of our university," said John Kiralla, executive director of Web, New Media and Design. "Our goal has always been to foster a community with iLMU Mobile, and we believe that Mosaic allows us to achieve that goal. Mosaic makes it easy for us to update our mobile content and features to keep pace with the needs of our integrated digital strategy and target audiences."
Mosaic works with the Blackboard Mobile Software Development Kit to allow integration of other apps into the campus app.
The company said in a prepared statement that Mosaic replaces the Blackboard Mobile Central platform, which will no longer be sold.
Other institutions currently using Mosaic include Duke University, Jacksonville State, and Clemson University, among others.

You would think that the award shows and their after parties would be enough, but of course the celebs hit the red carpet before the main event all week. With the Grammy Awards coming up on Sunday, there have been plenty of pre-Grammy festivities this week and the Delta Airlines Pre-Grammy Party delivered with a star-studded red carpet. We got plenty of fashion inspiration from some of our favorite celebs and it is oh-so-easy to get the look with your luxury swimwear!
Black was the definite headliner on the red carpet at this pre-Grammy party, with so many celebs wearing either all black or accessorizing with this fashion friendly color. We loved Ashley Benson's all black look and she added the perfect pop of color with her bright yellow pumps. The leather jacket brought some edge to the look and made it a more casual style, perfect for this event. Julianne Hough, though, was definitely my best dressed celeb with her all black one piece and nude and black pumps. She looked fashion forward and gorgeous! The all black bikini should be a staple in your swimwear wardrobe and the Tainted Love Bikini is just the suit you need. The leather and gold hardware give it an edgy and sexy look, perfect for any occasion.
Even though black was all over the red carpet, some celebs opted for dark prints, which are very in this season. Anna Kendrick was seriously gorgeous and feminine in her floral print mini dress and black pumps. The look was very refined and glam without being over the top. Hillary Duff also looked great in her printed dress and all black blazer. We are fans of the floral print for designer swimwear styles as well and my favorite is the Hello Gorgeous Bikini with a black and pink floral print paired with black and white polka dots. Are you ready for the Grammy Awards yet? I know I am and we can't wait to see the amazing celebrity red carpet fashion!

Technology and the Trojan Horse: Can we Afford Not to Change?
Our customers have deepened my perspective on Education. They help me to see the many different shades of change and what transformation is really all about. They have also given me a new understanding of the multi-faceted nature of technology and the role that it plays in changing education.
What is most evident to me lately is that technology can't be relegated to a "role." I used to think of technology as being one part of an overall transformation plan. Educational institutions need to have a solid network infrastructure, the right wireless and mobility technologies, a way to streamline communications and improve efficiency, a better way of doing online learning. It certainly does do all that. We have also thought of it as an accelerant: adding online learning courses will speed delivery of quality educational content, and web conferencing will make it faster and easier to deliver professional development to teachers, for example.
But, the dynamic nature of technology makes it a whole lot more than an accelerant, and it has more than just a "role" to play. Technology is the driving force behind the need for change. The onslaught of technology is giving us no choice but to change. It's not just about disengaged or bored learners, it's about learners who may stop going to the traditional classroom altogether because it has nothing left to offer them. The power of informal learning, and the technologies that drive it, threaten to make traditional education not only irrelevant, but obsolete.
Everyone knows that students are savvy consumers of technology, iThings, social media, mobile devices, and the like, but they're also increasingly savvy navigators of content and information that is broadly available on the web. They have the access required to figure out what employers want, and they are going to learn how to give it to them, if they haven't already.
You might say that students are too naïve to know what they don't know, that they really don't understand what it takes to be say, an engineer, without going to university. Or, you could say that there is almost unlimited information available on the web that can enable highly motivated individuals to become engineers: online courses, detailed, web-based technical information on a range of topics in many different engineering fields, and a variety of informal learning avenues. This all coupled with an increasingly competitive global community, will, I believe, drive people to avenues other than the traditional classroom.
Does this make education and educators obsolete? Absolutely not. Traditional education can be the glue that holds this all together, that frames employer requirements, makes faculty members facilitators and guides, and provides direction to students, placing them at the center of their learning, and helping them to define their life ambitions, working with them to design their curriculum, customized to meet their needs, and the needs of their future employers.
So let's revisit the topic of technology. Yes, technology has a role to play, and it is an accelerant, but it is also the Trojan horse, sneaking not very quietly onto the school and college scene, and this horse is being driven squarely by the Trojans. Our students are telling us where they want and need to go. We can either get in the horse with them, or we can remain scattered outside the walls of Troy, looking in, and wondering what is going to happen next.

The J. M. Smucker Company
Statement Regarding Transparency in the Supply Chain
January 1, 2012
For more than 110 years, The J.M. Smucker Company has been guided by our Basic Beliefs - the values and principles that guide both strategic decisions and daily behavior. These Basic Beliefs regarding quality, people, ethics, growth, and independence have served as a strong foundation throughout our history and continue to be the basis for how we run the Company.
Today, Smucker bases present practices on these time-honored values and principles. We interpret them, in terms of modern business thinking, to be the guideposts for decision-making and daily interactions with consumers, customers, employees, suppliers, communities and shareholders.
Our relationships with suppliers are particularly important, given that they directly impact our ability to meet the product quality expectations of our consumers and customers. To this end, we seek suppliers who support our Basic Beliefs. We expect every supplier to conduct its business with the same high standards of honesty, fairness, and ethics that we apply to our own business.
In particular, we require our direct suppliers to contractually agree not to employ children, prison labor, indentured labor, or bonded labor or to participate in human trafficking. In addition, using internal resources, we perform scheduled Quality Assurance audits on select suppliers, during which our auditing personnel look for any evidence of human trafficking and slavery. We will continue to evaluate the risk of human trafficking and slavery in our supply chain as our Company grows, and we will institute training programs for supply chain personnel as necessary to manage any identified risks that would threaten our continued dedication to our Basic Beliefs.

Author Notes: These small, flavorful peppers are a staple in Spain's many tapas bars and the reason is simple: they're addicting! Most of them are on the milder side, but in every batch you'll get a few that will get you reaching for the extinguisher. Well, an ice cold beer, at least. I was so excited yesterday at the Wednesday's farmers market to find these little gems that I bought 2 pounds! The preparation couldn't be more basic: olive oil, sea salt and sauté. I made one pound of them plain and the other, I made with a tiny bit of garlic, chopped prosciutto ends and a few good splashes of Spanish sherry vinegar. Either way, they are amazing! —TiggyBee
Makes: about 60
pound washed and dried padrón peppers
1 small clove finely chopped garlic
ounces chopped proscuitto or serrano ham
extra virgin olive oil for sautéing
sea salt to taste
sherry vinegar
- Wash the peppers and blot them dry with paper towels. In a large skillet, add enough olive oil to coat the pan and place over high heat.
- Add the peppers to the pan and sauté until they are nicely blistered on both sides, shaking the pan or stirring during the process. When they're starting to blister nicely, add in the proscuitto or serrano and continue to sauté, adding the garlic last so it doesn't burn.
- Total cooking time is about 6 minutes, but if they are wrinkled and blistered before then, take them off the heat. While the pan is still hot, add in a few good splashes of sherry vinegar and sea salt to your taste. Grab an ice cold beer and enjoy!

Ive been mapping for various games since Timesplitters up to Far Cry 2. I ran the UNS Clan and 3 24/7 servers for FC2. Our servers were known for their high-quality maps and zero-tolerance policy for cheaters. FC2 began to die out so we shut down - rather than cling to a dying game, we bowed out with dignity. I decided that simply creating MP maps just wasnt enough anymore. I could have gone to Call of Juarez BB, or even made maps for TF2 (which I am actually doing as a side project) but I felt that moving on to Modding was the way to go.

Rice farmers realize that if they lose the Clearfield technology; i.e., it won't help them control red rice in commercial rice fields; there's nothing else to fall back on.
The problem is that sometimes economic and time constraints and pressure from landlords can lead them to make decisions that may not be in the best interests of preserving critically important weed control tools.
"Everyone is passionate about protecting the Clearfield production system," says Avi Deshmukh, Clearfield marketing manager with BASF, the company that developed the herbicide-resistant strain of rice that allows growers to control red rice in commercial fields of Clearfield rice.
Deshmukh was referring to what BASF learned during six teleconferences with more than 400 rice growers and retailers last October and November. The teleconferences, which were conducted by Beck Ag, were aimed at discussing the stewardship guidelines for the Clearfield rice production system.
"Our goal is to make the guidelines as effective as they can be," said Deshmukh, interviewed at the USA Rice Outlook Conference in Biloxi, Miss., in December. "And it's to help growers get the most out of their investment in the technology."
Since the introduction of Clearfield rice several years ago, BASF, Horizon Ag and RiceTec Inc., the primary distributors of Clearfield rice seed, have promoted stewardship guidelines aimed at delaying the development of resistance in red rice.
This year, BASF hired the Beck Ag, Inc., consulting firm to conduct the series of teleconferences to get more farmer input on the Clearfield rice stewardship guidelines. They also talked to ag retailers and university weed scientists about those efforts.
"Most farmers know that if Clearfield rice becomes ineffective, there's nothing else that's known that would fill that gap," says Alvin Rhodes, technical service representative with BASF. "So it's very important that we follow the guidelines."
Rhodes discussed one new feature– the approval of a wider application window for Beyond herbicide in Clearfield rice – during a presentation at the New Products from Industry Session at the Rice Outlook Conference.
"Previously, farmers could apply a single, 'rescue' application of Beyond herbicide to manage red rice breakthroughs late in the season," said Rhodes. "With the Beyond label expansion, growers can now use Beyond within a wider application window, as a second treatment after one Newpath or Clearpath herbicide application, and as a late-season application to manage advanced, late-season weeds."
Under the Residual Clearfield Rice Herbicide Program, growers should apply Clearpath herbicide along with the residual herbicides Prowl H2O or Command between emergence and second leaf. Newpath herbicide should be applied about two weeks later between the three- and five-leaf stages.
Beyond herbicide may be used as a single rescue treatment for weed breakthroughs any time following the Newpath application and prior to panicle initiation (or green ring). Facet herbicide may be applied as a soil treatment, after emergence, or between the two-leaf stage and permanent flood. No more than 0.67 ounces per acre of Facet should be applied per season.
Under BASF's new Knockdown Herbicide Program, Clearpath should be applied to rice from emergence through five-leaf. Beyond herbicide should be applied about two weeks later, between the four- to five-leaf stages followed by the permanent flood.
Beyond can also be applied again as a rescue treatment prior to panicle initiation or green ring. (Beyond may also be applied up to 14 days following green ring or panicle initiation on Clearfield rice varieties.)
"We don't care if they apply Prowl H2O or Command as long as they put a residual herbicide out there," says Rhodes. "That's as much for the barnyardgrass and other grasses which also have the potential for developing resistance."
Rhodes said 2011 is shaping up to be a good year for another of the major tenets of the stewardship guidelines – rotating Clearfield rice with another crop.
"With these unusually high prices, it looks like a good year to go with soybeans," he noted. "We're not trying to turn people away from rice, but the current futures prices for soybeans are very attractive and a good reason for growers to follow Clearfield rice with soybeans."
Other points for farmers to consider:
- Growers should be cautious about moving equipment and transferring red rice seed to other fields.
- They should make sure they spray all parts of the field and not allow red rice to gain a foothold along field edges, on levees or under power lines.
- Practice good water management. "Some farmers seem to think that the new technology allows them to be less vigilant on water management," said Rhodes. "Good water management is still critical for the efficacy of Newpath, Clearpath and Beyond."
The 2011 Clearfield Rice Stewardship Guidelines:
- Start clean – utilize a burndown herbicide at planting.
- Plant Clearfield rice according to seed company recommendations for best cropping practices.
- Apply a residual herbicide, such as Prowl H2O herbicide, delayed pre-emergence, to increase grass control.
- Apply two applications of Newpath herbicide as labeled or one application of Newpath followed by one application of Clearpath herbicide or vice versa. Clearpath may be substituted for only one of the Newpath applications but not both. The second application provides residual for extended weed control. Beyond herbicide may be applied as the second application after the first application of Newpath or Clearpath.
- Water management:
- Flush within two days of first application.
- Initiate permanent flood within two days of second application or as soon as the growth stage of rice permits.
- Maintain good soil moisture until permanent flood.
- Maintain weed-free levees and red rice-free ditches and turnrows.
- Treat with Beyond to control escaped red rice at a proper growth stage according to Beyond label.
- Rogue for red rice escapes.
- Do not ratoon rice crop if red rice is present at harvest, regardless of plans to harvest or utilize as habitat.
- Roll and flush Clearfield rice fields after harvest to promote germination of weeds in the fall.
- After frost in the fall, destroy all remaining rice plants.

Vurnon Anita headed off on for his summer holiday reflecting upon a "beautiful" season as Newcastle snatched Sky Bet Championship title glory on a dramatic final day.
The 28-year-old Dutchman and his team-mates, who had already secured promotion back to the Premier League at the first attempt, celebrated deliriously on the pitch at St James' Park on Sunday afternoon when confirmation of Brighton's 1-1 draw at Aston Villa meant their 3-0 win over Barnsley was enough to ease them back to the top of the table.
Talks between owner Mike Ashley and manager Rafael Benitez this week will determine whether or not the so-called "Rafa-lution" on Tyneside will continue in the top-flight, but whatever happens, Anita will look back upon a difficult campaign with a great deal of satisfaction.
He said: "Everybody worked for each other and fought for the club. It's been beautiful to see this season.
"You always have to work to the end and so everybody could see with those final scenes. The emotion was there for all to see. It is a great thing for the city and the club.
"I have a medal for my collection, it's all good. I can sit back and reflect now. I can enjoy vacation and hopefully come back."
Anita is one of several men who is out of contract this summer and his future is yet to be decided as Benitez waits to discover the size of war-chest Ashley is prepared to give him and determine whether or not he can work within that budget.
However, the former Ajax midfielder, who has played much of his football this season at right full-back, has gone much of the way to winning over his critics with a series of fine individual displays.
He admits he does not know yet what the future may hold for him, but having played his part in both the Magpies' relegation and their subsequent fightback, he is keen to have a role in the latest chapter of the saga.
Asked if he hoped to stay, Anita said: "Of course, but it's not up to me. I am open to everything. I will see what happens.
"If the group stays together it's a beautiful thing, but in football you never know what happens.
"Hopefully we can stay together and then work for next season."

Communism in South Africa
Irina Filatova
The history of communism in South Africa began with the formation in 1921 of the Communist Party of South Africa (CPSA). The party was entirely white, as was the majority of organized labor—its main constituency. The CPSA attempted to fight for equality of black and white workers, but white labor refused to desegregate, and the party's support among Africans was practically nonexistent. In 1928, the Communist International (Comintern), of which the CPSA was a member, sent it an instruction to work for an "independent native republic." This slogan helped the party to attract a black membership, but resulted in much infighting.
The CPSA's position strengthened during World War II, but in 1950, after Afrikaner nationalists came to power, the party was banned. It re-emerged in 1953 as the underground South African Communist Party (SACP). Since then, the party has worked closely with the African National Congress (ANC). Many of its cadres were simultaneously ANC members. In 1955, communists helped to formulate the Freedom Charter, the ANC's overarching program. In 1960, the SACP launched the armed struggle against apartheid. The ANC took the nascent liberation army under its wing in 1963. In the early 1960s, many party members, including Nelson Mandela, were arrested or forced into exile.
The party had a deep ideological influence on the ANC: from 1969, its ideas on South Africa as a colony of a special type and on the National Democratic Revolution (NDR) have become part of all ANC programs.
After the end of apartheid, communists occupied important positions in all ANC governments. Despite this, many in the SACP have been unhappy with the direction the ANC has taken. However, the party has not contested elections on its own, trying instead to influence ANC policies from inside. This has cost it its reputation as a militant revolutionary party.
History of South Africa's Bantustans
Laura Phillips
With the passing of the Bantu Authorities Act in 1951, the apartheid set in motion the creation of ten bantustans, one of South Africa's most infamous projects of racial ordering. Also known as "homelands" in official parlance, the bantustans were set up in an attempt to legitimize the apartheid project and to deprive black South Africans of their citizenship by creating ten parallel "countries", corresponding to state designated ethnic group. The bantustan project was controversial and developed slowly, first by consolidating "native" reserve land and later by giving these territories increasing power for self-governance. By the 1980s there were four "independent" bantustans (Transkei, Ciskei, Venda, and Bophuthatswana) and six "self-governing" ones (Lebowa, Gazankulu, KwaNdebele, Qwaqwa, KaNgwane, and KwaZulu).
While a few bantustan leaders worked with the anti-apartheid liberation movements, the bantustans were largely rejected as political frauds governed by illegitimately installed chiefs. They acted as dumping grounds for surplus cheap African labor and allowed the apartheid government to justify large-scale forced removals from "white" farmlands and cities. But the bantustans were also incubators of a black middle class and bureaucratic elite. Despite the formal dissolution of the bantustans in 1994 and their reincorporation into a unitary democratic state, the rule of chiefs and the growth of this black middle class have a deep-rooted legacy in the post-1994 era. As several contemporary commentators have noted, South Africa has witnessed the "bantustan-ificaton" of the post-apartheid landscape.
The Marine Fisheries of South Africa
Lance van Sittert
The South African fisheries are environmentally bifurcated by the different current regimes on the west (Benguela) and east (Agulhas) coasts. Limited precolonial subsistence use of the littoral zone was supplemented from the mid-17th century by commercial harvesting of marine mammals for international trade and fish to ration imported slave labor. The liberalization of trade after 1814 led to the commercialization of Benguela fisheries by Cape Town merchants drying barrracouta (snoek) for export to ration indentured Indian labor on the sugar plantations of the southwest Indian Ocean and canning rock lobster to feed the urban bourgeoisies of Europe. The mineral revolution in the final quarter of the 19th century created an expanded southern African demand for fish in the new mining centers of the subcontinent, prompting the colonial state to pioneer the demersal fisheries of the Agulhas current, which were monopolized for the first half of the 20th century by British-owned steam trawlers. The motorization of rock lobster fishing in the same period created widespread poverty in the inshore subsistence fisheries. This became an increasingly politicized issue as Afrikaner nationalists laid blame on the British monopoly over the national fish market. Proposed state nationalization of the demersal fishery and reorganization of the inshore fisheries into cooperatives was defeated in 1944 in favor of state financing of private capital through the provision of research, infrastructure, and finance. Afrikaner nationalists after 1948 utilized the latter to engineer the rapid industrialization of the pelagic inshore fisheries and concomitant rise of Afrikaner capital. Falling inshore catches and increasing foreign competition in the demersal fishery led to a crisis in the 1960s that was resolved through the creation and strict conservation of an exclusive economic zone south of the Orange River coupled with the looting of the Namibian colony's fish resources. The postcolonial states in Namibia (1990) and South Africa (1994) thus inherited severely depleted fisheries resources dominated by white capital and superintended by neoliberal states, severely constraining black capital formation. Both consequently satisfied themselves with blackening the white monopolies and defending their exclusive resource access against escalating insurgencies from the excluded black underclass.
Technological Change in Late 19th-Century South Africa
William Storey
Societies and technologies were deeply intertwined in the history of late 19th-century South Africa. The late 19th century saw the significant development of capitalist agriculture, together with the expansion of mining. The technological side of farming and mining had a significant influence on social and political development. Meanwhile, as in many other colonial outposts, local innovators and entrepreneurs played significant roles in business as well as government. Technological developments were not simply imported or imposed from Great Britain. Everyday technologies, ranging from firearms to clothing, were the subjects of extensive debate across southern Africa's different cultures.
The History of Migrant Labor in South Africa (1800–2014)
Peter Delius
A pervasive system of migrant labor played a fundamental part in shaping the past and present of South Africa's economy and society and has left indelible marks on the wider region. South Africa was long infamous for its entrenched system of racial discrimination. But it is also unique in the extent to which urbanization, industrialization, and rural transformation have been molded by migrant labor. Migrancy and racism fed off each other for over a century, shaping the lives and deaths of millions of people.

Japan opens up sterile gallows to media
Japan opened up its gallows to local media for the first time on Friday, a move that could spark debate in a country where the majority supports the death penalty.
Justice Minister Keiko Chiba has called for more disclosure and discussion on executions in light of a lay judge system introduced last year under which ordinary citizens, along with professional judges, can hand down death sentences.
Despite opposing capital punishment, Chiba signed off on the executions of two convicted killers and attended their hangings last month. She also set up a group to study the death penalty.
TV footage from inside the Tokyo Detention House showed the trap door, the viewing room and rooms where the inmate can meet a cleric, with a Buddhist altar and a Buddha statue. The noose was not shown.
There was the smell of incense ... The impression was that of sterile objects in a clean, carpeted room, said a reporter from broadcaster NTV.
Footage also showed the button room, where three prison officers press a button at the same time to open the trap door, so that it is not clear which button opened the door.
Japan and the United States are the only Group of Eight rich countries that retain capital punishment. Japan has 107 inmates on death row.
An overwhelming majority supports the death penalty. Last year, 86 percent said in a government survey that retaining the death penalty was unavoidable, up from 80 percent in 1999, though a recent NHK public TV survey put support at 57 percent.
Experts are concerned at how little the public knows about the death penalty. The Justice Ministry in 2007 started releasing the names and crimes of inmates sentenced to death, but critics say the ministry still restricts information.
(We) demand that the Japanese government ... fully disclose the reality of the death penalty system, human rights group Amnesty International said in a statement.
While some in the public were disturbed by the disclosure of the execution chamber, others welcomed the move.
I think it's an honest and positive step to show the place where peoples' lives are taken in accordance to Japanese law, said Kazutoshi Yasui, 26. It's better than hiding it.

Purple Teva sandals pulled me into a conversation with Suzanne Latham in 2006, and eventually our friendship bloomed. It was winter. She had thick socks on and the purple sandals. I was working out at Curves gym in Chestnut Hill when she walked in, with her fabulous footwear and big red-rimmed oval glasses. I knew the moment I laid eyes on her that she was a character and a free spirit, and that is how I will forever remember her.
I normally don't engage in much small talk at the gym. I was there for the sole purpose of working out and zoning out. The music was loud, and I wanted to remain somewhat anonymous. When people find out you are a regular contributor to the local paper, they either become suspicious or want to pitch you their story or cause. I wanted none of that. But the purple Teva sandals were too much to overlook, as were Suzanne's winning smile and rosy, round cheeks.
Somewhere along the way we exchanged contact information, and then met for coffee. Coffee turned into lunches as I learned more about Suzanne. She shared with me that she had grown up in Cleveland with a sister, Nadyne, 9 years her senior. She had moved to Philadelphia in the fall of 2005, after living in a scenic mill house near in Waynesboro, Virginia, in the Shenandoah Valley for many years with her former husband, Stuart Goldsmith. I have since learned that Ruby was her maiden name, and the name Latham came from a man she had been married to briefly after graduating from Syracuse University.
She and Goldsmith met in Michigan when they were both in the advertising business. She was a copywriter. Goldsmith eventually sold his advertising firm, and the couple moved to Virginia, where she became an active volunteer. She was instrumental in the development of the Waynesboro Riverfest, an arts festival designed to raise money and awareness about the need to preserve the natural beauty of South River. She also helped start the Blue Ridge Recycler newspaper, and she shared copies with me since I have worked on recycling outreach campaigns. She was passionate about ecology and preservation of the environment and natural resources, as I am.
Bill and Shirley Moulton, now living in New Hampshire, shared this glimpse of Suzanne from her Legacy.com guestbook: "If you lived in Waynesboro while Suzanne was around, you could be sure that she would include you in one of her projects to improve the community. She always had something to do and was never too shy to ask for help … Both Shirley and I were so proud and fortunate to team up with such a valued activist."
When her husband died, Suzanne wanted to start over, and reached out to a high school classmate, Diane Dunning, who now lives with her husband in Blue Bell. Suzanne knew nobody else in the area. I thought about how brave she was to make the move and visited her at her first home in Germantown. A year later she moved to a condo in Mount Airy and held an open house there, where I got a further look into her life through American folk and native art pieces that she and Stuart collected in Michigan, Ohio, Virginia and surrounding areas.
When I look at a wall hanging in my bathroom that says 'Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often,' I think of Suzanne. She enjoyed tutoring a 10-year-old boy and his younger sister, visiting their North Philadelphia school or taking them on field trips to the Wissahickon Valley. Her main passion in more recent years was playing bridge. She loved the game. Apparently she was well enough off financially that for decades she did not have to take a paying job to support herself.
According to Dunning, "This past year she came up with the idea of taking a train across country with her fellow bridge players. They played bridge all day while watching the scenery go by. That's something Suzanne would think up and then follow through on." Suzanne learned to play the game at the Chestnut Hill Center for Enrichment, and then moved out to the Whitemarsh Parks and Recreation program and the Ambler Senior Center.
"She started here playing bridge, but moved out wherever she could find a good game. She was passionate about bridge. She will be remembered as a free spirit and quite a character," said Mary Zell, Executive Director of the Chestnut Hill Center for Enrichment.
Over the summer, I had the honor of being one of a half dozen women who attended a birthday party in Suzanne's honor at the home of Diane Dunning. It was a magical evening.
Then the e-mail came. Christmas Eve. Diane asked me to call her. It was urgent and had to do with our friend, Suzanne. My thoughts raced. Maybe she was rushed to Chestnut Hill Hospital for some sort of emergency, and I was the closest to the ER. What could be wrong with Suzanne? Why was Diane contacting me on Christmas Eve?
I had talked to Suzanne earlier that week, encouraging her to come to a tree trimming party at my home with some of my other 'gal pals.' She told me that she was off to Cleveland the next day to spend Christmas with her sister and her family and that she was not where she needed to be in terms of packing. I had previewed a DVD my business partner, D. Mike Smith, had helped her put together with old family home movies and Suzanne's narration of her memories of growing up in Cleveland. It was a fabulous tribute to her sister, and she was eager to share it in person. Smith spent many hours with Suzanne to get the video 'just right.'
Suzanne never made it to Cleveland to deliver the DVD. She was four hours into her trip when she was involved in a one-car accident on I-80 just outside of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. She didn't have a computer or cell phone, so gadgets while driving did not distract her. We may never know what caused the accident.
I thought Suzanne was in her early 60s, but have since learned she was 69. I believe the motto of 'Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often', proved to be the key to her youthful spirit and appearance. Suzanne loved to hop on a train and run into the city for a movie at the Ritz and an expensive meal. If she couldn't find a buddy, she would often go solo. I once hooked up with her on a train out of town and wished I had been a guest at her table that evening versus attending a dull professional 'rubber chicken' dinner. I now think twice about attending the 'rubber chicken' dinners because of that encounter. Life is too short.
Her high school friend, Diane Dunning, shared some details about her love of food: "She would research new restaurants and keep lists of restaurants, theaters and museums she wanted to visit … And she was also a talented artist painting primarily landscapes, but it's not something she pursued with a formal education. She just had natural talent."
Dunning, an artist by training, noted her friend's penchant for travel to places like Vietnam and India and more recently stateside. Dunning remembers a family project in which Suzanne cut up old dresses and pasted them on family photos that dated back to the Civil War. "She thought it would liven the images up, and I guess in a way it did, but it was a pretty far out idea that she just had to see through."
At one point I was trying to introduce Suzanne to another woman I knew, Nancy Hohns, who lives at the Hill House. When I got them to a dinner at the Chestnut Hill Seventh Day Adventist Church, they looked at each other and laughed, because they were next-door neighbors in the 11-story building … When informed of Suzanne's death, Nancy teared up when she remembered her last conversation with Suzanne.
Suzanne is survived by her loving sister Nadyne Rufe of Parma Heights, Ohio her nieces and nephews Stephen Rufe (Sue) of Parma, Cynthia Rice (John) of Downingtown, PA, Todd Rufe (Laura) of Cuyahoga Falls and Andrea Weber (James) of Sebastian, FL, seven great-nieces, one great-nephew and one great-great-nephew. Preceding Suzanne in death was her husband, Stuart Goldsmith, and her parents.
A memorial service is being planned for Sunday, Jan. 23, where we plan to have a fabulous meal and champagne toast. She would have liked that. Anyone who would like to attend should call 215-233-8022 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

With all the attention focused on the potential for an Avian flu pandemic, it can be easy to miss the regular flu season. At least 200,000 Americans are likely to be hospitalized from influenza this season, which could cause as many as 36,000 deaths due to flu complications.
So how can you stay flu-free?
Be Felix, not Oscar
Like Felix in the show the Odd Couple, it's best to be uptight about personal hygiene. The flu is easily spread in closed quarters like an office or school. Make sure to wash your hands often with soap or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer and avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. In a recent study from the University of Colorado that looked at students living in dorms, those who washed their hands more often had a lower risk of colds and flu.
Vaccinate the Kids First
While flu shots should be given to those most at risk for flu complications such as the elderly, anyone can benefit. But inoculating schoolchildren first may better prevent others from getting the flu. In fact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends vaccinating all healthy children between 6 months and 5-years-old.
"Children have more influenza in their body when they get sick," says Dr. Kathleen Neuzil, an immunization specialist at PATH, a public health advocacy group. This means that preschoolers are naturals at spreading the flu, not to mention the fact they have the cleanliness habits of, well, a four-year old. "When you have a flu outbreak, it's usually a school that gets closed," says Neuzil.
Don't Stress Out
Chronic stress can undermine the effectiveness of the flu shot. "Our studies showed that people who have lots of stress going on in their lives have poorer responses to the influenza vaccination," says Dr. Vikki Burns of the University of Birmingham in England.
On the other hand, those who experience some brief anxiety, like missing an important meeting because they have to wait in a long line for a flu shot, take better to a vaccine. "Stress is only good for immune function if it is very brief, experienced immediately before vaccination," she says.
Stay Home
At the first signs of you or your child feeling sick, call your boss or child's school and tell them you're staying home because public health experts tell you so. You are most contagious during the first few days of flu. "By staying home, you can protect against inadvertently infecting others," says Neuzil.
The symptoms of the flu are similar to a common cold, but you will generally feel more miserable very quickly if you come down with influenza. The elderly and others who are more at risk for complications should immediately see a doctor if they think they have the flu.
Stock Pile Over-the-Counter Remedies
If you're in good health to begin with, don't worry about hoarding Tamiflu or other antiviral drugs to protect against the seasonal flu. These drugs have to be taken within the first 48 hours of getting the flu to be effective. Even if you get a prescription in time, they will only shorten the symptoms by roughly a day.
Tylenol or Advil can help get you through the worst of the flu, which typically clears up on its own in a week. "If you stockpile Tamiflu, you run the risk that someone who really needs it can't get it," says Neuzil.

Is This the Craziest Reality TV Freak-Out Ever? [VIDEO]
VH1 reality show 'Tons of Cash' hardly has the gossip factor of shows like 'Jersey Shore.' But breakout star Jonny "The Greek Mystique" Sarhanis was determined to get some tabloid ink when he delivered an epic freak-out upon his departure from the show.
After giving an inspirational speech to the remaining contestants (liberally cribbed from 'Rocky Balboa'), Sarhanis … well, you'll just have to watch the video below to find out what he does:

You want me to be a what? Graduation Marshall? What is that? Do I get a badge? No badges? Please Dean's office stop asking me to do this stuff. I have put in my graduation ceremony time. I have worn the crazy outfit, I have listened to our shitty band, and heard our President give the same lame speech. You are going to have to hit up someone else. Unless you can guarantee to me that there will a be a streaker, at least two incidents of a grabbed microphone for shouting political statements, a drunken brawl, and you pay me for my time (and maybe give me one of those leis all the Hawaiians wear)— forget it, I'm too busy.

Strasburg exits early, Nats' bullpen comes through to down Braves
Atlanta, GA – The Washington Nationals' bullpen kept them ahead following Stephen Strasburg's departure.
Denard Span hit a pair of triples and scored two runs in the Nationals' 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves in the opener of a three-game set.
Strasburg was removed from Friday's start following two innings due to an apparent back injury. He appeared to wince after throwing a pitch at one point during the second frame.
"I was not worried so much about his back than his arm," Nationals manager Davey Johnson said. "He's going to fly back to D.C. and be evaluated by our doctors."
Strasburg tossed 23 of his 37 pitches for strikes.
"I definitely could've pitched through it," Strasburg said. "Davey didn't want to take the chance. We just have to be proactive about it, get the treatment so hopefully I'll be able to make the next start."
The combination of Craig Stammen (3-1), Tyler Clippard, Drew Storen and Rafael Soriano surrendered just a run on two hits and a walk over the final seven innings.
Stammen fanned three over four scoreless frames.
"With Strasburg going out we thought we had a better chance, but Craig Stammen came in and shut us down. Clippard we were able to get to him, but then Soriano came in and shut us down," Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman said.
Julio Teheran (3-2) struck out nine, but allowed three runs on seven hits and a walk over 6 2/3 innings for Atlanta, which has dropped four of its last six tilts.
Freeman smacked a solo homer and added an RBI single in defeat.
The Nats plated a run in the first and second to jump out to a 2-0 lead.
Span ripped a triple into right to begin the game and scored on Steve Lombardozzi's sacrifice fly to left. In the second, Roger Bernadina and Danny Espinosa hit consecutive one-out singles to put runners on the corners, and Bernadina was pushed across on Kurt Suzuki's groundout.
Freeman crushed a leadoff shot deep into the right field seats in the home second to cut the gap to 2-1, but Washington pushed another run across in the sixth.
Span scalded another triple into the right-field corner and again scampered home on a Lombardozzi sac fly to make it 3-1.
Freeman's RBI single in the seventh pulled the Braves within 3-2, but with the bases loaded and one away later in the frame, Clippard struck out Dan Uggla and Chris Johnson to end the threat.
Storen walked one in a scoreless eighth and an easy 1-2-3 ninth for Soriano gave him his 15th save of the year.
Game Notes
Strasburg threw 37 pitches, 23 of them for strikes ... Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper missed his fifth consecutive game due to a knee injury ... Span has five triples on the year.

First I received some not so nice online because I did not cover yesterday's Pro-President Morsi's protest and I think I have to answer to back. Now this is a blog not a news site and if you follow my twitter account you will know that I have been sick for the past 4 days. I spent yesterday in bed so I do not know what I can to do more.
Regarding this protest well unfortunately the FJP officials who organized it with their allies from Islamists claim it is biggest human gathering the world has seen from ten years ago !! Oh yes it was even bigger than the Friday of Wrath "January 28th,2012" according to Mr. Farid Ismail , the MB and FJP leading member as well member of constituent assembly !!!
It was huge after all you mobilized all your supporters from several governorates in buses to be transferred to Giza in set up scene in order to present a certain counter message to the rallies that stunned Cairo and Giza last Tuesday.
I only remember how the NDP with its different names in the past used to organized big rallies similar to this to show support to Nasser , Sadat and Mubarak in front of the world. Of course this time we are speaking about a polarization deepened and using religion in the worst way ever.
Yesterday some MB supporter accused me of presenting a bad image about Egypt in the West "I do not know how" and I was on the verge of telling her "sister you should check the Sheikhs that spoke on the stage of MB in Giza to see who are really giving Egypt and Islam bad image.
Islam as a religion , as teaching and as history was being insulted in the worst way ever yesterday.
They claim that that the MB and President Morsi were insulted day and night in Tahrir square. Well last time I check the Tahrir protesters are not Sheikhs who use their religious status. I have always thought that religion men use better language but unfortunately I was mistaken. We knew miraculously that Morsi is the grandson of Omar and he is also the truly 5th Rashidun Caliphate not Omar Ibn Abdel Aziz , the true grandson of Omar !!
Ironically the stage speakers included Sheikhs who were actually agents for the former state security known to everybody and some of them even fought each other. One particular face stunned me is Sheikh Mohamed Hassan , I mean this a Sheikh for all seasons !! He kissed Mubarak's ass and prayed for SCAF from mount Arafat then praises Morsi !! Man of all seasons indeed who uses religion in the worst way !!
I do not know what Essam Haddad will tell foreign media about their radical allies back in Cairo including those who respect and honor the martyr Osama Bin Laden but I know that Haddad will present something in return of D.C's acceptance. Already I do not know what Haddad will say in front of the EU when he is confronted by his allies' comments about the Holocaust mocking it throughout the event and up till now are using to accuse Mohamed ElBaradei of being traitor and Zionist agent !!
I do not know what Haddad will tell from lies to the Europeans and the IMF in order to get loans when he is confronted by the MB's members and supporters' chants to Morsi to go after the media and judiciary. " One signal Morsi and we will bring them in sacks !!" this is what the Pro-Morsi protesters chanted today in front of the Supreme constitutional court now. It is the ugly populism of Nasser , it is as they copycat what he did but with little religious touch. "I will not even say Islamic , Islam is innocent and greater from what they are doing from constant lying"
The MB does not want to learn history lessons, it is like the 1954 all over again but I do not know if Morsi will have the fate of Mohamed Naguib or we will have the fate of Khaled Mohi El Din and his companions who supported Naguib. I do not know.
I am already sick , fighting fever and trying to go to back to the field as soon as possible , I do not feel that guilty for not blogging about the protest yesterday because I feel more guilty I have not written a single word about the Quorsaya Island and its people who facing military trial or the Lycee school that came out of war zone and its students do not know what they are going to do !!
Again this is personal blog with biased point of view , if you want unbiased professional grammatical mistakes free news and analysis I think you should head to Ahram Online or Egypt Independent or Egypt Monocle.

Hello guys. Don't think anyone is left here but I might as well give this a shot.
For the past couple weeks or so, I haven't been able to sign in to WLM without it crashing right afterwards. everytime I try to login I'm welcomed by this after my messenger logs in:
Has anyone else been experencing this?
My messenger is Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8117.416)
My OS is Windows XP SP3
If you guys need any other techincal information let me know. thanks for the help.
EDIT: After playing around with it for a bit, it doesn't seem to be crashing right away anymore but it seems to completely seize up when I try clicking on someones name on messenger. it also freezes up when someone tries to contact me as well.
I can stay logged in and everything but if I try do anything instant messenger related it locks up.

I finally figured out what the problem was.
You see, I use "Messenger Plus!" if no body knows what that is its like the Messpatch an add-on that expands the features WLM doesn't have. they just updated to 6.0 and it caused some kind of incompatibility with version 2009 of WLM. Other users are reporting the issue at the moment but the temporary solution is to roll back to the previous version of Plus! which I did.
So for now until the bug is fixed I have to stay with a previous version of Plus! but everything works fine now.
Feel free to close this.
