I feel ya brother. At 46, sometimes my hamstrings feel like dynema. I run alot and always stretch before, but I have been noticing improvement by stretching after as well. Like Toby mentioned, crouching and stretching my knees seems like something I need as well (which is something I never worried about while stretching for running). I have also recently started raising my feet as high as possible while doing pull ups. Thats not really stretching, but it is a heck of an ab workout.davesails7 wrote:What kind of stretches are you doing? Right now, if do the regular standing stretch (bend over with legs straight, feet together, and try to touch my toes) my finger tips are still 6 inches above the floor Maybe my legs are too long or arms too short... Hopefully if I start stretching every day this will improve and I'll be able to reach that board handle by summer!KYLakeKiter wrote:I have been working on my flexibility this winter with specific boardoff maneuvers in mind hoping it will pay off when the water warms up here.
BTW, I am just at the begginner level of boardoffs. More of my boardoffs are unintentional, and I am often happy just to have my board in hand when I hit the water (occasionally I land one). Like everyone else, I am working on it. I just need more sessions. This winter is going way too long

New student group serving in development, administrative areas
PLAINVIEW – Just a few months into its inception, a new student group at Wayland Baptist University has already logged several hours of service meeting needs for WBU administrators.
The President's Ambassadors began this fall and includes ten students, all juniors or seniors, whose purpose is to provide assistance and be student liaisons for the offices of the university president and institutional advancement.
Hope English, director of development since July, started the group to assist the president and other university administrators at various functions. Students were nominated first by faculty or staff members on campus, then invited to apply for the group. Administrators were looking for well-rounded students who are strong academically, socially adept and overall good role models and representatives of the university.
They found what they were looking for.
"This first year is a good group, a diverse group of majors and interests and backgrounds, and they've already enjoyed lots of great opportunities to serve," said English.
The group is outfitted with matching navy blue blazers, light blue button-down shirts and khaki slacks, a uniform look designed on purpose to identify them to campus visitors.
"We want folks to know when they're at a Wayland event, that these students are here to help and can provide information or assistance if needed," English said.
Primarily, the Ambassadors will work closely with the president's office and assist at regular functions like the Board of Trustees meeting in October, where they served as table hosts, or at other gatherings on campus or in the president's home. They also worked Wayland's booth at the Baptist General Convention of Texas in Amarillo recently and attended the alumni gathering.
English said the ambassadors will also provide assistance with donor and alumni relations, specifically at homecoming each year, where they will serve as campus guides and assistants to distinguished alumni honorees and help at other functions.
Besides filling a need at the university, English points out that the President's Ambassadors provides a benefit to the students as well, giving them great experience in public relations and speaking in social situations.
"The kind of experiences they will have during their time here will really prepare them for their future careers, no matter what they will be doing," English said. "Speaking in front of people or carrying on a conversation with adults they don't know is a skill all students really should have."
The inaugural group of President's Ambassadors includes seniors Mario Munoz of Crosbyton, Amy Rendon of Midland, and Brandon Urlaub of Wickenburg, Ariz.; and juniors Hannah Dillard of Lubbock, Heather Dillard of Lubbock, Blake Durand of League City, Dean Kellum of Plainview, Sarah Ketchem of Lubbock, Jordan Kuss of Lubbock, and Carrie Strickland of Brenham.

Had them for a couple thousand miles. They have worn better than most all terrains. I have taken them through every terrain including steep hills that are icy. They handled amazing and I never had to use 4x4.

I have 45,ooo mile on these and still have 9/32 left on them. New they have 20/32. As they wear down, they do become a little noisy, but that's the tire. I have had the old style mudders and have gotten the same mileage out of them. I do rotate ever 5k miles. Front to back and criss cross on rotation.

I Purchased these tires (BFG M/T KM2) and use them on my '95 Jeep Wrangler. I mainly drive on the street commuting to work and school but I also go off-roading quite often. The traction in the woods is amazing and I could not complain.

Wouldn't let me choose F250; I definitely didn't put these guys on a Focus- HAHA. I love these tires. They're great for highway driving and around town. They look pretty good on my 2001 F250. They're big and tough looking for sure. I would definitely recommend them for the price.

These tires are my 2nd set of BFGs. My first set lasted 5 years and 50,000 miles. My rig is street and trail driven so I put the last set of tires to the test. I have no doubt this set will be just as great, if not better. I have conquered this year's snowy NJ winter with ease. Highly recommended to the daily driver and weekend warrior.

I found these tires to be very good when off-roading through mud and rocky terrain. The tires worked well in deep snow, but anything under 2-3 inches, the truck would slide. The downfall to these tires is that the tread life was sub-par. My 2500 ate through the tread in no time. I got approx. 15000mi out of the tread, and that estimate is generous.

Jennifer O'Neill says in her lawsuit ... she worked for Gaga for 13 months, and is owed $380,000 in overtime. O'Neill says in her suit her job included "ensuring the promptness of a towel following a shower and serving as a personal alarm clock to keep [Gaga] on schedule."
O'Neill claims she had to cater to Gaga in "stadiums, private jets, fine hotel suites, yachts, ferries, trains and tour buses."
And, O'Neill says, she was required to be at Gaga's beck and call at her "earliest waking hour."
O'Neill is suing for the $380k -- which represents 7,168 hours of overtime during the 13 months.
Gaga is not a defendant. O'Neill is suing Mermaid Touring Company, which Gaga uses for concerts and what not.
Gaga's rep told the New York Post the suit is "completely without merit."

Annual Measurable Objectives (AMOs)
AMOs are unique yearly targets in reading and mathematics for each subgroup, school and district, as described in Washington's Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Flexibility Request. AMOs replace the state uniform bar used under Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) as prescribed in ESEA. For more detailed information, please refer to pages 119–121 in the Flexibility Request.
AMO Requirements
Washington was approved to set new AMOs to reduce proficiency gaps by half by 2017 for the "all students" group and each subgroup through our state's ESEA Flexibility Request. The new targets (AMOs) for student learning reflect both:
In order to reduce proficiency gaps, educators will need to build capacity for implementing standards-based instruction. Innovation, effective use of research-supported practices, and a commitment to deeper learning on the part of these educators are the cornerstones of the continuous improvement process that will be needed to ensure all of our students reach and exceed these rigorous learning targets by 2017.
The following steps will be used to determine annual AMOs for all districts and their schools in the "all students" group and each subgroup. AMOs will be developed for grades 1–8 and high school. While individual AMOs will also be published for each grade level/content area tested, only the grade band/content area tested will be used in determining school-level, district-level, and State-level AMOs. Note that this methodology results in districts, schools, and subgroups that are further behind, requiring greater amounts of annual progress in order to meet their targets for 2017.
Base year: Use 2010–11 state assessment data as a base year.
2011–12 through 2016–17:
Targets will depend upon each group's baseline in 2010–11. Every school and subgroup will be starting in a different place, and the groups that are farthest behind would have the most progress to make by 2017. OSPI has chosen to use a minimum N size of 20 for including subgroups in calculations, since the smaller N will enable the state, districts, and schools to discern proficiency gaps among very small subgroups. Washington state's prior ED-approved Accountability Workbook uses an N size of 30.
Reward, Priority, Focus, and Emerging Schools
As required by Washington state's Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Flexibility Request, OSPI has identified schools as Reward, Priority, Focus, or Emerging based on the school's performance over the last three years. The specific definitions of these four terms are provided in Definitions and Calculations Used to Identify Reward, Priority, Focus, and Emerging Schools.
The lists of schools were determined using the same methodology (approved by the U.S. Department of Education) as used in prior years to identify our state's persistently lowest-achieving (PLA) schools. Data on state assessments in reading and mathematics and graduation rates from the 2008–09, 2009–10, and 2010–11 school years were incorporated into the calculations. To be clear, a school's Title I status during those three school years was a factor in these calculations. However, a school's Title I status in subsequent years (e.g., 2011–12 or 2012–13) will not alter the four generated lists or the requirements for Reward, Priority, Focus, and Emerging schools.
Schools identified as Priority, Focus, or Emerging must meet certain requirements/expectations and are eligible for certain supports and services. If you have questions regarding schools identified as Reward, Priority, Focus, or Emerging, please contact the Office of Student and School Success at (360) 725-4960.

Focus │
2012 Schools

What happens if AMO is not met?
Washington state's ESEA Flexibility Request does not include penalties for schools that do not meet their AMO targets for a specific year. But because the Priority, Focus and Emerging schools lists are based on three-year proficiency averages, it is possible that a school not meeting its AMO targets in one year could be placed on one of those lists in future years. Possible penalties if a school does not meet its overall target in 2017 remain to be determined.

1. Joyce's surgery turns out well in this episode, leading us to think that she'll be okay. However, a few episodes down the line, she dies due to a complication involving the surgery. Good play on Joss' part or cheap trick?
2. There is controversy about how this episode portrays the problems in the Buffy/Riley relationship. Some people feel that it pushes the burden all onto Buffy's shoulders. Let's get some questions about this going. Do you think Buffy's being "shut down" was a significant part of the Buffy/Riley breakdown?
3. If you chose "no" in #2, do you think this episode piled the blame on Buffy?
4. Do you think the writers believed that Buffy's being shut down was the primary reason for the Buffy/Riley break-up?
5. Spike spies Riley going to the vamp house. The next night, he takes Buffy there to reveal what Riley was doing. Good thing?
6. At some points, Riley's repeated visitations to the vamps for blood-sucking fun resemble a drug addiction. At other times, the show draws a comparison to infidelity. Which one works best for you?
7. Buffy and Giles get into a disagreement about the bloodsucking-for-cash business. Do you think the Slayer should spend time rooting out the vampire-human feeding dens?
8. Riley stakes Spike with a plastic wood-grain stake and warns Spike to stay away from Buffy.
9. Riley's douchiest act of the episode?
10. Tell me your thoughts on Xander's speech. You know the one. Check all that apply:
11. Biggest douche of the episode?
12. Xander tells Buffy that she took Riley for granted. True?
13. Pretend you're a movie reviewer and give this episode a star rating:

Across the city, the chef was called a genius. Newspapers gave his "trendy and edgy, yet timeless" bistro (named The Bistro), 5-star ratings. He was even in talks about his own reality TV show (which was to be called "The Bistro"). But tonight, he was planning something truly grand and avant-garde. He had heard a rumor that one of the top reviewers would be sneaking into The Bistro, and it was time to show off his creativity. Word on the street was that this reviewer had a major sweet tooth, and lived for all things chewy. He reached into his pantry and pulled out a large cardboard box labeled Candy Warehouse.
He spotted the reviewer immediately, even underneath her large straw hat and gigantic sunglasses. He walked up to the table and presented her with his three-course meal, starting with a Giant Gummy Cola Bottle beverage. She gasped. For an appetizer, he served Gummy Cheeseburgers and Gummy Hotdogs. The main course was sliced Swedish Fish topped with Gummy Fried Eggs and a side of Peas and Carrots Candy. And for a dessert? Gummy Fruit Salad with a side of White Coconut Fruit Jell Candy Slices, dipped in a Hershey Chocolate Fondue.
"Revolutionary!" the reviewer exclaimed, scribbling excitedly in her notebook as she munched on another Gummy Strawberry.

Standard ECMA-311
Private Integrated Services Network (PISN)
- Inter-Exchange Signalling Protocol - Simple Dialog Supplementary
Service (QSIG-SD)
2nd edition (December 2001)
This Standard specifies the signalling protocol for the support of the Simple Dialog supplementary service (SS-SD) at the Q reference point between Private Integrated services Network eXchanges (PINXs) connected together within a Private Integrated Services Network (PISN).
Supplementary service SD enables a user to communicate with another user or application by the exchange of keypad and display information transparently over a PISN.
The Q reference point is defined in ECMA-133.
Service specifications are produced in three stages and according to the method specified in ETS 300 387. This Standard contains the stage 3 specification for the Q reference point and satisfies the requirements identified by the stage 1 and stage 2 specifications in ECMA-310.
The signalling protocol for SS-SD operates on top of the signalling protocol for basic circuit switched call control, as specified in ECMA-143, and uses certain aspects of the generic procedures for the control of supplementary services specified in ECMA-165.
This Standard also specifies additional signalling protocol requirements for the support of interactions at the Q reference point between SS-SD and other supplementary services and ANFs.
This Standard is applicable to PINXs which can interconnect to form a PISN.
The protocol defined in this Standard forms part of the PSS1 protocol (informally known as QSIG).
The following file can be freely downloaded:
This Ecma publication is also approved as ISO/IEC 21408.
The previous replaced "historical" edition of this Ecma Standard is available here.

Inquiry Question
(Reprinted with permission, Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
Transcript of article on left side of front page:
Seattle is the best point in the world in which to secure an outfit for Alaska or the Klondike country. It is not a mushroom, milk-and-water town with only crude frontier ways: not a bit of it: it is a city of from 65,000 to 70,000 population, with big brick and stone business blocks and mercantile establishments that would be a credit to Chicago, New York, or Boston: it has paved streets, an unrivaled system of street cars--electric and cable--electric lights, several transcontinental railroads and a harbor unequaled in America.
Look at the map. Get the location of Seattle firmly fixed in your mind's eye. Seattle is the natural point for Alaskan travelers to reach. It is the terminal point for three great transcontinental lines: The Northern Pacific, Great Northern and Canadian Pacific, the latter being through the Seattle & International railroad. It connects indirectly with the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, the Denver & Rio Grande, the Southern Pacific, the Union Pacific and all other railroads operating the United States or Canada. In fact if you are coming West en route to the Klondike, go to your railroad, ask for a through ticket to Seattle, and the railroads will do the rest--they will land you in the Gateway City, safe and sound, in just a few days. But why should you come to Seattle?THESE ARE THE REASONS
*Seattle is the greatest city on Puget Sound, commercially, numerically and socially.
*Seattle is headquarters for nine out of ten of all steamboat companies going to Alaska or the Klondike.
*Seattle has taken care of the Alaska trade for years, has absorbed it from greater cities, and her merchants are educated to the real needs of the miner.
*Seattle merchants are honest, as proven during the big rush of this year, and carry the greatest variety of Klondike goods found anywhere.
*Seattle is the natural gateway to the Klondike, over 8,000 Klondike miners and prospectors having left this city for the Northwest gold fields in Seattle steamboats during 1897, nearly all of whom bought their outfits here and expended thereby $2,500,000.
*Further--You should come to Seattle because it will pay to do so.
Jealous of Seattle's greatness and of the fact that this city has become the starting point for Alaska and the Klondike, rival cities will attempt to deceive you. As you come West you will be supplied with misleading and often untrue printed matter announcing that some other city sells goods cheaper, has larger stocks, that Seattle is overcrowded and so forth. Heed it not. The Post-Intelligencer stakes its reputation with the American public when it says: "Come to Seattle; you will be well satisfied with your [unreadable] and treatment, have no trouble in getting your supplies and save money besides."
Transcript of article on right side of front page:
It has been estimated that from 10,000 to 20,000 persons, who desire to go to Alaska next spring, will spend the winter in Seattle; already fully 5000 are here. Their idea is to reside in Seattle during the winter, thus enabling them to meet men experienced in Alaska mining, who make their headquarters in Seattle, and gain knowledge by personal association: to get posted on the different sections of the Arctic region, and to become familiar with the locality offering the greatest possible chances for new discoveries: learn all about routes, the necessary outfit and above all to be on hand ready at any moment to take advantage of the earliest opportunity in February or March to start for the North. Thus, they meet...get acquainted with opportunities, have ample time to secure a perfect outfit when there are no unusual crowds, and by being in advance of the great rush when spring opens are enabled to get into Alaska or the Klondike cheaply and quickly and with well-informed ideas of what they desire to do and exactly where to go when they get there.
Questions for Document 1
1. Describe the sketch on the front page and explain how it fits in with the headline.
2. What aspect of Seattle does the first article seem to stress the most? Why?
3. What does the second article claim would be the benefits of wintering in Seattle? Why else might the article encourage prospectors to come to Seattle months before they might be able to leave for the gold fields?
4. Do you think the articles represent straight news or boosterism? Explain your answer.
5. What are your impressions of Seattle based on the Post-Intelligencer special edition?

A SURGE in days lost to strikes in construction has lifted the level of industrial disputation in Australia to its highest level since 2004 as the Gillard government again blamed the conservative states for the rise.
The latest increase - which saw days lost to industrial action reach 301,800 in the year to September - has renewed attacks on Labor's Fair Work Act. Days lost to strikes are now more than double the level of the 2008/09 financial year - the year before the Fair Work Act took effect.
The Workplace Relations Minister, Bill Shorten, blamed state public sector disputes for the rise and also said the days lost to strikes were low by historical levels. ''Working days lost under the Fair Work Act are around one third the rate of the Howard government,'' Mr Shorten said. ''The recent examples of ongoing public sector disputes with state conservative governments show you can't trust the Liberals with IR.''
But while state wage disputes were a factor, the Grocon confrontation in central Melbourne in August and September appears to have been even more significant with a five-fold rise in days lost in construction for the September quarter.
Master Builders Association of Victoria executive director, Brian Welch, said there was a ''massive problem'' in the industry and said the ''white flag'' was raised to unions when the powers of the Australian Building and Construction Commission were watered down.
The Grocon dispute shut down part of central Melbourne after the dispute flared over the appointment of shop stewards at Grocon and the right to display union paraphernalia on sites.
The opposition workplace relations spokesman, Eric Abetz, said the eight year highs in days lost to strikes showed there were ''clear militancy problems that need to be addressed'' but said Labor and Mr Shorten would ''never turn against their trade union mates''.
The Australian Council of Trade Unions secretary, Dave Oliver, said industrial action came in ''peaks and troughs'' affected by factors including the number of agreements up for renewal. Mr Oliver said one or two disputes can affect the figures.
''In this recent period, the disputes in the Victorian state school system and Queensland public service that are largely responsible, he said. ''In each case the blame rests with a government that refuses to negotiate fairly and honour its promises.''
The other sectors to record high numbers of days lost from strikes in the September quarter was education, healthcare and social assistance.

Doesn't it seem like just yesterday when the Heat were a team with one All-Star struggling to keep their heads above water in the playoffs.
Well, actually it was.
Then, barely 11 months ago, LeBron James and Chris Bosh joined Dwyane Wade on stage at American Airlines Arena for that smoke and laser light show. Which brings to mind a few other NBA teams that have made the rapid ascent from middling to championship contender.

How to convert recipes for French flour?
Hi folks,
I'm in the UK, and out of curiosity ordered myself some Type 55 French flour from Shipton Mill. I have already used the majority of it on a batch of the simple 'classic French bread' from Peter Reinhart's 'Artisan breads every day'. This does not use a sourdough starter, but uses cold fermentation, and I've had decent results with it in the past.
However, I was actually rather disappointed in the results of using the French flour instead of the UK or Canadian bread flour I usually use. I understand French flour has a lower gluten content than the flour for bread generally sold in the UK, and this seemed to manifest itself in making the loaf rather dense and tight, with regular, small holes, as opposed to the larger holes and more open texture I've gotten from this recipe in the past.
I was wondering, is there anything I can do to modify the recipe to get better results from the French flour?

Hubble Follows Jupiter Aurorae
Combined ultraviolet- and visible-light images of Jupiter from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope were taken from February 17-21 in support of the New Horizons flyby of Jupiter on February 28.
The image segments in the boxes were obtained using Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys's ultraviolet camera. The ultraviolet images show auroral emissions that are always present in the polar regions of Jupiter. They are typically 10-100 times brighter than the northern lights seen on the Earth. The aurorae are produced when charged particles from the Sun become trapped in Jupiter's powerful magnetic field. They cause gasses to fluoresce high in Jupiter's atmosphere, near the planet's magnetic poles.
The equatorial regions of Jupiter in this photo were imaged in blue light on February 17, 2007 by the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. This reveals cloud features in Jupiter's main atmosphere. In the ultraviolet views, the atmosphere looks more hazy because sunlight is reflected from higher in the atmosphere.
Hubble will continue to photograph Jupiter as well as its volcanically active moon, Io, over the next month as the New Horizons spacecraft flies past Jupiter. New Horizons is en route to Pluto, and made its closest approach to Jupiter on February 28, 2007.
Through combined remote imaging by Hubble and in situ measurements by New Horizons, the two missions will enhance each other scientifically, allowing scientists to learn more about the Jovian atmosphere, the aurorae, and the charged-particle environment of Jupiter and its interaction with the solar wind.

"The Walking Dead,"AMC's epic, buzzy zombie apocalypse drama, returns from its midseason hibernation this Sunday at 9 p.m. with the first of six episodes closing out the second season.
The midseason finale, which aired on Nov. 27, saw a zombified Sophia emerge from the barn — Hershel Greene's holding pen for reanimated family members and friends — and take a bullet in the head from Rick Grimes' revolver.
Key storylines heading down the stretch run of Season 2 include the volatile love triangle between Rick, Lori and Shane; Hershel's territorial protection of his farm and the whereabouts of self-amputee and great American badass Merle Dixon.
I hope everyone...

Free Classroom Acoustics Standards
Thanks to the generous support of our sponsor, Armstrong Ceiling Systems, we are able to make the standards below available at no charge to you.
ANSI/ASA S12.60 Part 1 Classroom Acoustics, Part 1: Permanent Schools
What does "Nationally Adopted International Standard" or "NAIS" mean? There is a close linkage between international standards committees and their national counterparts. Usually, the US members of ISO or IEC working groups will have contributed significantly to the International Standard. In many cases, there is no reason to have a unique American National Standard and often industry really demands that there be one standard or one test that is acceptable worldwide. In these cases the American National Standards Developer may elect to "nationally adopt" the International Standard so that it becomes an American National Standard as well.
National adoptions may be identical or modified. (Documents that have been modified include the letters "MOD" in their designation.) In this case, national deviations are clearly called out in the text and explained. In some identical national adoptions, there even may be some additional content that is purely informative for US users. In most cases, adoptions are identical meaning the document you purchase has 100% of the content of the International Standard – just at a significantly lower price.
Review the Nationally Adopted International Standards available from ASA's ANSI-Accredited Standards Committees
Individual members of the Acoustical Society of America are eligible to receive electronic (PDF) copies of 5 American National Standards free each year. Obtaining this member benefit couldn't be easier. When you use the store the first time you will identify yourself as an ASA member during checkout by entering your ASA member number. Your first order will be manually processed so that your membership can be confirmed. (This will mean there is a slight delay before your standards are delivered.) Once that is done your free standard will be delivered via an email link. For the rest of the membership year your membership status will be known. The first 5 American National Standards you purchase in PDF format will be delivered at no cost. Again this year we are able to make Nationally Adopted International Standards available to members at a limited cost of $35 plus tax, in lieu of one of the 5 free standards.

Hot on the heels of a statement from Barack Obama, the Department of Justice has released its own statement on the George Zimmerman trial.
As you can see, it quite clearly leaves the door open for a civil right case against Zimmerman, who was last night found not guilty of murdering 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
A growing movement is asking that the DoJ file a civil case against Zimmerman, with a number of petitions addressed to United States Attorney General Eric Holder circulating.
The full statement is below:
As the Department first acknowledged last year, we have an open investigation into the death of Trayvon Martin. The Department of Justice's Criminal Section of the Civil Rights Division, the United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation continue to evaluate the evidence generated during the federal investigation, as well as the evidence and testimony from the state trial. Experienced federal prosecutors will determine whether the evidence reveals a prosecutable violation of any of the limited federal criminal civil rights statutes within our jurisdiction, and whether federal prosecution is appropriate in accordance with the Department's policy governing successive federal prosecution following a state trial.

"Working with Lisa, my body and spirit feel so much lighter. I had years of anxiety 'stuck' in my body that I just could not get rid of, no matter what I did. Lisa also helped my son overcome his fear of shots, which was a huge deal! We are blessed to have found Lisa!"
"Her work lasts. It's life changing!I was trapped, stuck, suffocating behind these old emotions I didn't even know I had! Lisa actually made it possible for my body to heal. It's not just some feel good for a day then back to old ways. Her work is life changing!"

THE DOCUMENTARY film The Economics of Happiness, produced by the International Society for Ecology and Culture, begins starkly, with full-screen titles that tell us we are facing an environmental crisis, an economic crisis, and a crisis of the human spirit. As the film goes along, it strongly suggests that those three crises are interrelated.
In the end, the filmmakers and their multicultural array of talking heads ask that we stop measuring human progress simply by economic growth and give priority to the quality of life, the health of communities and their cultures, and the sustainability of our economic practices. In short, they suggest replacing our mad rush toward globalization with a back-to-the-future move to "localization."
Early in the film, writer-director-narrator Helena Norberg-Hodge tells us about the people of the remote Ladakh region of the Himalayas, one of the highest spots on earth to be inhabited by a settled human community. When Norberg-Hodge first visited the Ladakhis in the 1970s, she says, they were self-sufficient, healthy, and mostly at peace, with themselves and each other. Then came the great Western world with its bells and whistles and manufactured needs. Soon the people became dissatisfied with their traditional way of life and were driven to compete in a cash economy. Before long, there was open hostility between Muslims and Buddhists, who had co-existed peacefully for centuries, a fraying of the social fabric, and an atmosphere of gloom and depression.
Norberg-Hodge reports that when she first came to Ladakh, she asked a young man to show her a "poor" house. The guide stopped, thought for a moment, and said, "There are no poor houses in Ladakh." Ten years later, she heard the same guide plead for aid from a group of Western visitors because, he said, the Ladakhis were so terribly poor.

Whole Wheat - Rye sour bread
Yesterday, i was meaning to bake Hansjoakim's (a TFL member) Pain au levain with Rye sour, but changed my plans at the last moment. I stared at the Ripe Rye sour sitting in the bowl and thought of possible alternatives to my intitial recipe. I wanted a 100% wholegrain bread so I browsed through the bread books i have and found that most recipes needed a soaker of some kind, which i had none. I decided to improvise and bake some bread with my whole wheat and whole rye flours. I weighed the sour and calculated the required flour and water to arrive at a medium loose consistency dough at 75% hydration. It is 22% fermented flour, all of which is whole Rye flour.
412 grams Rye sour (200g water, 200g Whole Rye flour, 12g rye starter)
700 grams Whole Wheat flour (finely ground)
480 grams water
Starter above
1.5 Table spoon salt
Total Dough weight: 1605 grams
I mixed all the ingredients incuding salt using my mixer, made a dough of medium softness, rested it for 5 minutes, and finished mixing it at speed 2. The dough was rounded and left to ferment for 2 hours. The dough fermented very slowly, if at all, and on hour 3 i lost all hope and knew that it would be an unpleasently sour bread had i left it to ferment more. I have learned yesterday that a rye sour will not do quite well with wholewheat flour, as opposed to white wheat flour (as is the case with Hans' recipe - which contains some rye flour in the final dough too).
I decided to add instant yeast, and i'm glad that i did. I spread the dough to a rectangle and dissolved 3 tsp of IDY in water and poured it on top of the dough, i then kneaded the yeast in until it diappeared. The bread rose in 1.5 hours, shaped and fermented for 1.5 hours in my bread pan.
The bread's crumb is medium soft, and the crumb is soft and slightly moist. the flavor is very good, with a nice sour tang with each bite. The Rye sour really came through
A really good save, and a lovely wholesome result.
