Diverse Perspectives on Zionism and Israel in 2010 - Part 2: Assaf Likhovski, UCLA School of Law, Post-Post-Zionist Israeli Historiography
Assaf Likhovski, Tel-Aviv University and Visiting Schusterman Professor of UCLA School of Law, will speak on "Post-Post-Zionism in Israeli Historiography". This is the 2nd event of a 4-part lecture series titled, "Diverse Perspectives on Zionism and Israel in 2010".
Thursday, January 28, 2010
UCLA School of Law, Room 1457
405 Hilgard Avenue
About the Event:
In the 1980s and 1990s a group of historians and sociologists revolutionized the study of Israeli history. Using a variety of critical approaches, these scholars, often called collectively the Post-Zionists, set about undermining what they perceived to be the founding myths of Israel. The arguments made by the Post-Zionists have, in many ways, become the reigning orthodoxy, but no historiographical trend is permanent. In the last decade, a paradigm shift has occurred in the study of Israeli history. A new generation of scholars has appeared, and this generation, sometimes called "the third wave in Israeli historiography" or "the Post-Post-Zionists," has produced works that differ in many respects from those of the previous, critical, generation. This generation studies new subjects, deploys new types of sources and new writing styles, asks new questions about Israeli society, and its attitude to Zionism is often empathic rather than critical. Prof. Likhovksi describes the new paradigm, comparing it to the old, Post-Zionist paradigm, and suggests some reasons for its appearance in the last decade.
About the Lecture Series: Diverse Perspectives on Zionism and Israel in 2010

With the developlement of more chemo drugs, another unpleasant side effect becomes more common!. Although there have always been some people whose skin reacts to virtually any medication, it has not been very frequent with chemo. An exception would be Xeloda, the pill vesion of 5-FU, which is a common treatment for metastatic breast cancer. It is often accompanied by "hand/foot syndrome" (sounds as though yo would do better to seek out a vet for treatment!) that presents are red blisters on the soles of feet or palms of hands. Most of the time, frequent application of moisturizers keeps it more or less under control, but I have known a few women who were really miserable. One woman experimented with putting bubble wrap in her loose shoes and found it made walking less painful.
This is an article from the Journal of Experimental and Clinical Cancer Research. I give you the abstract and then a link:
Chemotherapy and skin reactions
Gabriella Fabbrocini1*, Norma Cameli2, Maria Concetta Romano3, Maria Mariano2, Luigia Panariello1, Dario Bianca1 and Giuseppe Monfrecola1
Background: New chemotherapic agents and new protocols in oncology have led to an increasing survival rate in patients affected by tumors. However, this increased use has been accompanied by a growth in the incidence of cutaneous side effects and a worsening of patients' quality of life. Appropriate management of skin toxicity associated with chemotherapic agents is therefore necessary for suitable drug administration and to improve quality of life and clinical outcomes.
Methods: We have clinically examined 100 patients affected by cancer, determining type, frequency, treatment, and evolution of side effects related to chemotherapy.
Results: The prevalent cutaneous side effects in patients undergoing chemotherapy are skin rash, xerosis, pruritus, paronychia, hair abnormality, and mucositis. The clinical cases are reported in detail.
Conclusion: Oncological therapies have become more selective and have low systemic
toxicity because of their high specificity, but cutaneous side effects are common and may worsen the quality of life of these patients.

Friday Group Ride #82
Until I was about 25, I had never worn a bike helmet. I went through my entire childhood, riding BMX, my soft melon of a head exposed to the predations of pavement and dirt. I hurled myself, full speed, at ramps made of plywood scrap, propped up on loose brick or, on a good day, a couple of cinder blocks. I tore through the woods, whizzing past pine trees and flying off red clay dirt jumps with nary a care in the world. I was oblivious to the very concept of 'concussion,' and my parents were equally unconcerned.
Parenting in the '70s was a much more laissez faire affair.
So yesterday, in the office, we were talking about helmets. None of us wanted to have the great helmet debate, but there we were. And then Neil said, "Here's the thing. If someone told you, you could never wear a helmet ever again, would it change the way you ride? Would you stop riding altogether? Would you ride different bikes?"
And Joe said, "I would never ride a mountain bike in the woods again. I would probably get rid of my road bikes. I would get a single-speed cruiser, with coaster brakes, and a large basket, and that would be it."
For all the times I've said, "I don't know for certain that a helmet makes me more safe, but I'm willing to err on the side of caution given the possible consequences," I've never taken the time to consider the question in the absolute terms Neil proposed.
So now I put it to you. Forget the helmet debate. Are they good? Are they bad? Do they make you more safe, less safe? That is not what we're doing here. All we're doing is answering the question: If you could never wear a helmet, how would it change your riding?

EXCLUSIVE: Adam Rifkin's R-rated Showtime series 'Look' premieres in 2010
Look for director Adam Rifkin's new television series "Look," based on his award-winning film of the same name, to be begin airing in the first quarter of 2010.
"The first season is eight episodes," he says to one of his actors who shot this inside look with a Flip video. The series will air on a premium cable channel (can you say Showtime?), which enables the series to have an R rating.
Rifkin is really on a roll. He's also writing the tent-pole comedy "Science Fair" for Disney. Think "Night at the Museum" but the science projects come to life.
In the meantime, the writer/director/actor talks about one of his favorite horror films, "Halloween" on Trailers From Hell.
And he's in darn good company. Josh Olson does "The Howling, " Eli Roth loves "I Dismember Mama," Neil LaBute is into "Black Narcissus" and John Landis touts "Dr. Renault's Secret" and "Circus of Horrors."
Happy Halloween, Adam!

I'm a person that takes time choosing a fragrance. It must not be a common scent first and for most. It will usally be a fragrance that my wife, and other women find very sensual, and men can't resist ( in as manly a voice possible) asking what is that you are wearing? This fragrance does that, to the 10th power. Outstanding cologne.

This is now one of my most favorite fragrances. It is soft, and subtle, like a non-flashy color suede on a soft plush couch. Every time I smell it, I think of a extremely classy designer sitting next to some beautiful woman, and he knows that he is the coolest guy in the room. This is assuming that he is not gay, but that is a non issue because this is an amazing scent regardless! It doesn't last more than 4 hours on my skin, but those 4 hours, I feel sexy and cool. Highly recommended, if you are just trying to make someone close see you as suave'.

Lag streaming
I have a little issue with my Onda V972.
Everytime when I want to stream a movie from Noobroom its lagging its not buffering you can see the movie with no issue but its laggy what could that be?
I tried other browser same issue.
Tried the stock firmware and I'm now on the Custom firmware 4.2.2 V3.0.
If I see a movie on youtube there are no issue only on the Noobroom its lagging.
Maybe I have to activate some settings?
I also have a Onda V701 and there its working perfect.
Kind regards,

Hosts: Doug Jayne and Allegra Broughton
I began working at KRCB in 1996 as the host of Connections. Over the years, I've done the Jazz show, New releases, Sonoma Co. Music Program, and many specialty shows (Beach Boys, Tom Waits, Howlin' Wolf, Elvis, Studio Kafe, etc.). I've produced 2 benefit compilation CD's for KRCB, and am planning a third.
I am co- owner of The Last Record Store, and I enjoy sharing my knowledge and love of music with the listener. I am still hosting Connections, and I
try to keep the show entertaining and a little bit different from week to week, showcasing music that I love. Check out my store here:
Check out my music here: www.songpeddler.com/DougJayne/index.asp
Allegra Broughton and Fatih Petric
A favorite, familiar voice at music venues around the Bay for many years, Allegra Broughton is now a regular voice here on KRCB as well. She's alternating with long-time Radio 91 mainstay Doug Jayne as host of Connections on Wednesday nights. A San Francisco native and fourth generation Californian with a lifelong interest in music as both fan and performer, Broughton is best known as the songwriter/singer/guitarist in the folk-rock band Solid Air (with co-founder Sam Page) for almost 25 years. Her connections with KRCB also include playing in The Wild Catahoulas, a cajun/zydeco band, with Gus Garelick (host of the Fiddlin' Zone here) and the Americana band, Laughing Gravy, alongside the aforementioned Doug Jayne. Allegra also sings with the gospel R&B revue SoulJoy. "I love all kinds of music, with a special fondness for great singers in all genres, world music, R&B, and good old rock and roll," Broughton says. "I've wanted to do a radio show for many years and I look forward to being the new Connections host." Listen for her on the on the first and third Wednesdays at 8 pm.

Rosenthal Automotive has shot and produced some very enjoyable BMW reviews and it continues with this 2012 335i (F30) review.
Be sure to watch in extra high quality "4K"
At the Malaysian launch of the new F30 3 Series, BMW showcased a 328i partially adorned in some M Performance Parts.
As we can see, not all F30 M Performance Parts are featured here, with the exterior aero kit parts missing (M Sport bumpers, carbon fiber front splitters, carbon fiber mirrors, sideskirts, trunk spoiler, and rear diffuser).
Featured however are the the M Performance gloss black grilles, M Performance racing stripes, 20″ Style 405M M Performance wheels, M Performance brakes in orange (4 piston front, 2 piston rear, and which also come in yellow and red) with 370mm brake discs.
The interior features the full array of M Performance Parts for the F30, with 'rough' carbon fiber finish trim on the center console, door handles, and wrapped shift knob, … CONTINUED
The official specs and photos of the first F30 3 series race cars have now been released. The twin F30 race cars by ADF Motorsport will debut on March 31st in the WesBank Super series and will go on to race in the upcoming 2012 24 Hour Nurburgring race. These F30 cars feature the new line of BMW M Performance Parts and these specs:
2,998 pounds (1360kg)
408hp / 443 lb-ft torque (600nm)
MoTeC ECU
Turbos boost lowered to maximum 0.7 bar and 40mm turbo inlet restrictor
M Performance front brakes (370mm)
18″ BBS wheels
Akrapovic exhaust
GPS data logging system
6 weeks to complete, at cost of 196,300 Euro
The new BMW 3 series F30 (320d) has been named by Autocar as its pick for the Best Car in the Real World, over the popular Range Rover Evoque.
The 320d F30 was given five stars by Autocar, the highest accolade their we-drive-everything testers can bestow on a car, and they are extremely careful not to spray it about. The last five-star verdict went to the Ferrari 458 Italia in 2010. Read about it inside.
Have a look at how the new F30 3 series sedan was launched into the Australian market. The presentation featured snazzy light effects imposed onto the 3 series, similar to the BMW Moscow presentation.
Autoexpress rightfully calls 3 the magic number for BMW. It's BMW's top selling model and has set the standard in the small-medium sports sedan class for decades. As such, any new 3 series model is always big news and the natural question to come to everyone's mind is how it compares to its most direct rivals – traditionally the Audi A4 and Mercedes Benz C Class.
No surprise, the F30 comes out on top as it has in all the comparisons so far. See the full details/results at Autoexpress.
The EPA has revised the 2012 328i (F30) MPG figures down by 3MPG to 33MPG. According to BMW:
All manufacturers are responsible for testing and submitting fuel economy figures each year to the EPA (based on physical tests following the EPA test cycle on a dynamometer). Occasionally, the EPA will validate the figures that we provide. When this happens, there are sometimes small changes in the published EPA fuel economy figures (usually 1 mpg up or down).
The EPA recently tested the 2012 328i Automatic and obtained a highway mileage result that was 3m pg lower (33mpg versus 36mpg) than the BMW test result. We are very surprised by this result and are currently working to determine how this is possible. The new rating seems abnormally low … CONTINUED
Development continues on the upcoming F34 3 Series GT (Gran Turismo) model, which BMW is testing concurrently with the other future F3x variants – the F32 coupe, F31 touring.
We've now spied the GT model with its trunk/tailgate open, revealing its exact trunk line. These photos also confirm what we've said earlier – that the 3 series GT will feature a simple hatch function rather than the twin trunk arrangement on the 5er GT.
We also get some more looks at the F34′s retractable spoiler, the first on a production BMW. As seen in the older photos we've reposted below, when the spoiler is deployed, we can see the trunk cutout for it to slot into when retracted, for a flat subtle look. Expect this spoiler spoiler to … CONTINUED
Challenge undertakes their F30 development on powertrain and cosmetic parts to see what improvements they can make to the car's powertrain and other mechanical systems (i.e. exhaust system, intercooler, intake system, oil cooling, etc.).

While there weren't many big-name matchups this week, it was still an entertaining week of college football. Here are some things we learned in Week 2 on the gridiron.
It's not uncommon to see a player flop in the NBA (remember Chris Paul?), but it would seem that the technique is also quite common in the NFL.
The first week of the college football season is in the books and, while a few questions have been answered, there is still a lot yet to see. Here are five big questions going into Week 2:
The sports calendar features the start of the 2013 NFL season and tennis crowning its final Grand Slam champions of the year. Here's what to watch this weekend:
Peyton Manning tied an NFL record by throwing seven touchdown passes in a game, and the Denver Broncos beat the Baltimore Ravens, 49-27, in the opener of the 2013 NFL season in Denver on Thursday night.
How quickly the tables can turn.
Joe Maddon continues to find innovative ways to get his team and its fans pumped up.
The biggest hit on the first weekend of the college football season didn't even happen on the field.
Do you take sugar packets from restaurants? Do you steal your neighbor's Sunday paper just for the coupons? Do you separate the two-ply toilet paper to make it last longer? Maybe it's time to move to one of these cities.

Planning officials proposed a public transportation system for Hardin County that would cost nearly $600,000 a year to operate with built-in flexibility to lower costs.
Alison Townsend, project manager for The Corradino Group, said the system's premise consists of a fixed-route connector running down U.S. 31W connecting Elizabethtown, Radcliff and Fort Knox, and two 12-mile circulators in Elizabethtown and Radcliff.

CABIN CREEK, W.Va. -- "So, how has everybody's week been?" asks LaCrisha Rose.
It's another gathering of the Circle of Parents group that meets at the Upper Kanawha Valley Starting Points Center at Sharon Dawes Elementary in Cabin Creek. The topic is the holidays and holiday stress.
"It's been OK. I got almost all my Christmas shopping done," says Angie Slater.
"Oooh, well you go, girl!" says Rose. "Along with the holidays comes stress. So what are some of the things that stress you guys out in the holidays?"
Answers tumble out from the six other parents around the table.
Families! In-laws! An autistic child! Scheduling! Meltdowns!
The talk turns to child meltdowns, the kinds that happen in the most public of places.
"When my first son started having meltdowns, I felt like I was the only mom whose kids had meltdowns, embarrassing me in the middle of the store," says Rose.
"When I saw other kids doing it when I was a first-time mom, I thought, 'They don't discipline their kid.' Until it happened to me and talking to the other moms and seeing all the other meltdowns, it's a normal thing. I kind of thank God for this group, because it makes me feel normal!"
In one fell swoop, Rose encapsulates one of the missions of the Circle of Parents idea: a parent-led, self-help group where the challenges of parenting can be examined in a supportive, confidential and confidence-inspiring fashion.
The Cabin Creek group is part of a statewide network of such groups that receive support from the TEAM for W.Va. Children through a grant from the W.Va. Department of Health and Human Resources. The West Virginia groups are part of a national Circle of Parents network in more than 20 states. Some groups are targeted to specific populations like parents with teens or parents with children with Downs syndrome.
"It doesn't take the place of getting professional services, but it's some added advice on how people deal with different situations," says Julie Pratt, who co-facilitates the network with Rose. "It's not always problems; you just have to be a parent who wants to share ideas about parenting."
For Rose, the group is "parents helping parents because nobody's an expert on your child better than yourself."
Meeting to meeting, the group might have guest speakers, a CPR or nutrition class, crafts and other topics. But it all comes back to raising their children better and to avoiding what might be called parental meltdowns.

House and Senate negotiators unveiled an $85-billion agreement late Tuesday to fund federal agencies through the fall of 2015, avoiding another government shutdown and ending the cycle of crisis that has paralyzed Washington for much of the past three years. In a rare display of bipartisan cooperation, House Budget Committee chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) stood side-by-side in the Capitol with Senate Budget Committee chairman Patty Murray (D-Wash.) to announce the deal, which would cancel half the sharp spending cuts known as the sequester for the current fiscal year.

Military veterans from all over the country are taking to the slopes, enjoying a weekend of winter sports activities at Windham Mountain. YNN's Alexandra Weishaupt has more on the ninth annual 'Learn to Ski and Ride' event.
WINDHAM, N.Y. -- "It was very frustrating for me. When I was lying in the hospital, one of my concerns was that I would never ski again," said Bryan Gansner.
But Army veteran Bryan Gansner is now showing off his skills on Windham Mountain with the best of them, only now, he balances on one ski rather than two.
"It's a single ski on a suspension setup with a seat on top of it. It takes a little bit of balance and a little bit of skill. You tear on down the mountain like everybody else," said Gansner.
The 12 year veteran sustained injuries to his lower extremities due to an IED, limiting his ability to ski. That's when he was then introduced to monoskiing, thanks to Wounded Warrior Project and the Adaptive Sports Foundation at Windham Mountain.
Thirty-one service men and women are enjoying the outdoor rehabilitative program aimed to help them expand their comfort zones, relax and enjoy some winter sports activities.
"A lot of them have PTSD. We have some who are amputees, but they all have a common bond and when we get them together to talk. It's just amazing. They realize they're not alone," said Wounded Warrior Event Media Coordinator Karen Feldman.
It's something military vets are finding comforting on their road to recovery.
"Speaking of the warrior within me, this is one of those things that definitely helps you get out of your shell and just lets you feel normal. Even if it's only for three days, you get to feel normal again," said Victoria Givens-McMillan.
It allows Givens-McMillan and the other service men and women the opportunity to experience a weekend full of normal, meeting new life-long friends and challenging themselves to things they deemed impossible just a short while ago.
"It gives you some of your freedom back, depending on your injuries, everybody has different limitations or abilities and this is one way to get some of those freedoms and abilities back," said Gansner.

New Orleans Travel Guide
Hello, NOLA!
Coming back to New Orleans after a long absence is like getting reacquainted with an old friend--a vibrant, stylish, irreverent, food-loving, foot-stomping, good-times-rolling friend.
Cuisine in Cajun Country
"Welcome to my restaurant!" came the lively French-accented voice from behind a screened door in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.
We were taking snapshots of Chez Jacqueline when Jacqueline herself spotted us. The next thing we knew, we were salivating
over her homemade biscuits, which were light, airy, and as big as MoonPies. Her Cajun omelet was enough food for three, but
I did my best.
Jacqueline typifies the spirit of Cajun Country. These folks love to cook for people who love to eat. Dave and I started our boudin sweep in Prairieville, Louisiana, near Baton Rouge, where we had an amazing breakfast at Frank's Restaurant & Smokehouse. Then we made our way to a down-home restaurant called Thibodeaux's in Duson, just outside of Lafayette, where we could've eaten a No. 3 washtub full of the potato salad, and the seafood gumbo held a good day's catch smothered in a chocolate-brown roux. The next day we drove down State 31 through two beautiful towns, St. Martinville and Breaux Bridge, enjoying our visit with Jacqueline before moseying on to Houma for chicken-and-andouille gumbo at Boudreau & Thibodeau's, "open 24 hours in a row."
There's a huge list of places we couldn't get to--and we're more than willing to have another go at it.
What's New On Alabama's Coast
Drive along Beach Boulevard in Gulf Shores these days, and you're sure to notice one thing: several cranes towering over
the seashore, erecting new condos and hotels.
The construction boom here reflects the growth and change on this 32-mile stretch of white-sand beaches. The towns of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, and the bays and beaches extending out from them, remain as family-oriented and casual as ever, but more options are coming online all the time. The Wharf, a tremendous new development in Orange Beach, boasts the largest Ferris wheel in the South, a 10,000-seat amphitheater, restaurants, shops, and a marina. Plans call for hotel rooms, condos, and a golf course. Bama Bayou, a development across the waterway from The Wharf, plans a full water park, dolphin swims, a resort and conference center, and more. Lulu's, the recently relocated restaurant owned by Jimmy Buffet's sister, serves fish sandwiches and shrimp in a setting that resembles a cross between Disneyland and a Florida Keys hideaway.
Alabama's Gulf Coast does not always get the recognition of Florida's, but the sand is as white, the water as pleasant, the days as sunny. With a little digging, you can plan a family vacation you'll remember for a lifetime.

Opinions wanted..
I have an HK USP Compact 40 but want to trade it in for a 9mm pistol. I would like to trade even so clearly I'm going to have to trade for a less expensive pistol. Pistols that I am looking at are CZ-75, CZ-75 P-07, Springfield XD9 Service, S&W SD9, Ruger SR9.
What do you guys think?

Go for it but ask for cash to make up the difference. They other option is sell it here on the forum and then buy what you want. This way you will take much less of a loss on the USP.

Type of trigger doesn't matter much. I've owned them all over the past 25 years. I'm leaning toward the CZ-75b because it is very customizable and I think it will hold it's value better than any of the other guns I mentioned. Problem is that my LGS carries HK's and has an unbelievable price on them. My used one won't get as much as I'd like on a trade because his new ones are so inexpensive (for an HK).

If you like the 75b, take a look at the SP/P01 instead. They are the more modern versions with many improvements. Having owned a 75bd for a decade i can firmly say there is nothing a 75 can do that a P01 can't. I shoot mine in matches with good results.

I have a SP-01 (base) and love it. For flexibility purposes, I tend to prefer guns with rails.
It also came with tritium night sights, even though I thought that they were not standard with the base model. I've seen a few SP-01 Tacticals on Armslist recently, for $475-$525. If you prefer a decocker over a safety, that's a good deal. I bought mine new for $600. |

Why not stay with the best and trade for an HK USP 9mm?
Especially since your gunshop has good pricing on HKs. Or you might consider a S&W M&P. (Honestly, I'm not too impressed with your list of choices.)

The terrier, nicknamed Steve Austin, suffered a broken jaw.
"So the patient's mouth sort of drifts to one side. So the goal is to realign everything," said Dr. Marco Cervi, with Veterinary Specialty Services.
Dr. Cervi performed surgery on the terrier, putting a plate and rods into the dog's jaw to stabilize it.
Little Steve Austin, with his almost bionic parts, will hopefully be the happy ending to a very sad story.
He and three pit bulls were seized by the SPCA. The dogs were found at a rental home in
"At this time we don't have a legal owner. We do want to find out who the owner is so we can prosecute," said Beth Caffrey with the SPCA.
One of the pit bulls died. The two others were sick and were euthanized.
Despite his broken jaw, little Steve Austin thrived in the attention at the shelter. Eager to please, eager for love.
"He discards his pain to get that love. So we want to make sure that he can get the love without having to live in pain," Caffrey said.
It was a complicated surgery. And Steve has a long recovery still ahead of him.
"We expect eight weeks of recovery so it takes eight weeks for fractures to heal," said Dr. Cervi.
The surgery is expensive. And the SPCA is seeking donations. If you can help, contact the SPCA in

High Altitude Gluten-Free Baking Tips
Categories: Baking Tips, Blog Hop, Contests, Gluten Free 101
High Altitude Gluten-Free Baking Tips
Those of us unaccustomed to high altitudes often experience shortness of breath, headaches and quick sunburns when we visit higher locations. The air is thinner and the pressure is lower at 5,000 feet above sea level and beyond, but people aren't the only things affected.
The same conditions that create these physical problems for living creatures can also affect baking, but not always.
I get lots of questions from folks asking how to adjust gluten-free recipes for high altitude and my first answer is that you might not have to make an adjustment at all.
First let's look at what happens when there is low atmospheric pressure, low humidity and thinner air. The first things you'll notice in the kitchen are a lower boiling point, more rapid rising and drier baked goods from the reduced humidity.
Where this requires a change in gluten-free baked goods is primarily in the leavening. Breads rise faster, leading to potential cave-ins because the cell structure isn't set well enough to hold the bread's shape. Other leavening agents like baking powder and baking soda will also cause the gases in breads and cakes to expand/rise faster. (I read once that 1 teaspoon of baking powder at 5,000 feet yields 20% more volume than at sea level!)
So my recommendation is to try the recipe without adjustment first. Keep good notes so that you remember any problems that developed with each recipe, and what solutions you devised that worked. If you encounter problems, reference these tips to help.
♦If your bread or cakes rise too fast and then collapse:
- Adjust the leavening agents: reduce baking powder by 1/4 teaspoon for each teaspoon called for in the recipe if you are baking above 6,000 feet. If you are baking at 8,000 feet or higher, reduce by 1/2 teaspoon for each teaspoon in the recipe.
- Reduce the rise time of yeast breads. Do not let the dough rise higher than the side of the pan. Check frequently to ensure bread is not rising more than double its size before baking.
- Do not fill muffins or cake pans more than 1/2 full.
- Do not omit salt in yeast bread recipes because salt will help to contain the rise.
- Try increasing the baking temperature by 25 degrees to help heat then set the cell structure faster so that it is better supported after cooling.
- Use extra large eggs instead of large eggs (eggs contain protein which helps to provide structure)
- Do not overbeat eggs, as this will enhance the rising of batters, which is not advised at high altitudes.
♦If the recipe results in baked goods that are drier and more crumbly than they ought to be:
- Increase liquid by approximately 2 tablespoons if baking at 6,000 feet; 3-5 tablespoons if baking at 7,000 feet or higher.
- OR decrease gluten-free flour by 1 tablespoon per cup of flour.
- Try substituting shortening for butter – it holds more liquid. (I use Earth Balance® Shortening Sticks)
♦ If your cookies flatten:
- Reduce the shortening or butter by 1-2 tablespoons.
- Substitute shortening for butter.
- Add 1/8 cup more gluten-free flour per each cup of flour in the recipe.
- Reduce the amount of additions like chocolate chips.
- Add powdered milk or non-dairy powdered milk (not reconstituted)
♦If your pie crusts or pastries are dry or tough:
- Reduce gluten-free flour or use less flour to dust with and handle the crust as little as possible.
- Ensure your fats and liquids are cold when mixing.
- Increase liquid by up to 25% (I add 2-3 tablespoons of vodka to the liquids in my pie crusts with great success!)

Susan said: on May 18, 2012
Almost everything I've made has come out fine. I'm never quite sure if I live at a high elevation (just over 3000 ft.) Some cookbooks say 3000 and some say 3100. But if most of my baked goods come out fine, I guess I don't need to adjust.
Joanna said: on May 18, 2012
I live at 6500 ft., and I do have to adjust. There were a few suggestions here I've never heard of even after more than a decade of living here! I'll have to give them a try. Thanks!

Good luck, Crystal! No one needs "cupcake explosions!!
Susan said: on February 23, 2014
I live at about 7,200 ft. I been having problems with my bread crumbling. I've adjusted my liquid and still having problems. I also mill my own flour and the bread is more dense. It has problems on the 2 rise not rising like it should. Any suggestions?
Jules Shepard said: on February 23, 2014
Hi Susan, it's hard to say without knowing exactly what flours you're using, but it sounds like there may be a problem with technique, as well. Are you using a bread machine or are you manually punching the bread down and giving it a second rise? There should be NO punchdown with gluten-free bread, and thus, no second rise. Unlike gluten breads, punching down and kneading gluten-free doughs will just take the life right out of the loaf and it will not rebound with a second rise. Hence the dense cell structure it sounds like you're experiencing. I hope that helps you find the problem!
Redd said: on March 5, 2014
So, this past weekend, we were baking zucchini banana bread (yum, by the way) and when we pulled it out of the oven, it had exploded! Now exploded might not have been the best description baking wise, but the bread definitely caved in. So what I'm wondering, because we actually haven't tried this yet, is when the bread is done, should it be moist or a bit drier than normal?
Jules Shepard said: on March 5, 2014
Hi Redd, we've all had that happen once in awhile. It's easy with recipes calling for fruit or veggies like zucchini for the batter to be too moist, which causes cave-ins (the bread still tastes great, though!) Quick breads like zucchini bread should not be dry, but there's a fine line between too wet and perfectly moist. If it needs to cook longer, try covering the bread with aluminum foil to keep the top from cooking too quickly and allowing the inside to cook longer.

Sigma Partners' Richard Dale posted a video of a random dancing guy to his Venture Cyclist blog I was skeptical. I'd seen the original video sans narration and dismissed it as a strange sociological phenomenon condensed into a quick three minute clip. Nevertheless, when the same video is narrated by MuckWork and CDBaby founder Derek Sivers, it provides some valuable leadership lessons for entrepreneurs.
WhenHaving first presented the video at this year's TED Conference, Sivers make the case that instead of the first mover / leader being the catalyst of a movement, it is in fact the first follower that rallies others.
Says Sivers, "Being a first follower is an under-appreciated form of leadership. The first follower transforms a lone nut into a leader. If the leader is the flint, the first follower is the spark that makes the fire. "
For entrepreneurs, it means that the key to virality isn't just building a great product. It's about having the right early adopters to teach others how to use the product and become comfortable with the novelty of something new. Sivers explains that it's the early adopters that others follow and not the trailblazing / seemingly crazy leader. In other words, it's important to respect your earliest users and give them the mechanisms to make their support public.
Says Sivers, "We're told we all need to be leaders, but that would be really ineffective. The best way to make a movement, if you really care, is to courageously follow and show others how to follow. When you find a lone nut doing something great, have the guts to be the first person to stand up and join in."
We've seen our fair share of angel investors, early executives and engineers follow a lone nut and build successful businesses. As an entrepreneur, who do you credit as your first follower and what efforts have you made to ensure that the act of following is made public?
