"I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious." --Albert Einstein
CENTER VALLEY, Pa., Dec. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Olympus, a global technology leader in imaging solutions for healthcare, life and materials science and consumer electronics products, is partnering with the Smithsonian, the world's largest museum and research complex, to create Q?rius (pronounced "Curious"), a new hub of scientific activity and education based at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) in Washington D.C. Olympus is supporting Q?rius, the comprehensive 10,000-square-foot experiential learning center, with a donation of dozens of microscopes and imaging systems that will enable museum visitors, along with remote participants, to access more than 6,000 bones, minerals and fossils in the NMNH's collection and engage in active, ongoing scientific inquiry.
Q?rius is a first-of-its-kind interactive and experimental environment. Through involvement with scientists and interactions with thousands of authentic objects, visitors will experience how science is relevant to them and how they can develop the skills to become the scientists of tomorrow. Q?rius is designed so that students and other visitors will contribute to the world's body of scientific knowledge and participate in investigating actual research questions by working with actual research objects. A key part of the process is that students, with help from Smithsonian scientists, will use professional-level microscopes and other instruments to probe and study specimens that get them engaged in and excited about the scientific process.
"We are grateful to Olympus for their generous donation of software, accessories, manpower and high quality microscopes to Q?rius," said Elizabeth Duggal, Associate Director for Public Engagement at the NMNH. "Through their support we are able to offer students the unique opportunity to examine collections using the same scientific instruments that Smithsonian researchers do every day. We're fortunate to have a partner like Olympus who shares our vision of inspiring the next generation of scientists to become better stewards of our natural world."
Olympus is contributing significantly by the donation of more than 50 fully loaded, professional scientific microscope imaging systems, along with a variety of cameras, monitors, PCs, stands, software and more. As part of its donation, Olympus is providing a DSX100 opto-digital imaging system, a free-angle wide-zoom microscope that combines cutting-edge optical performance with the operational convenience of a smartphone or tablet. The DSX100 will capture detailed 3D images of specimens for archiving and online access, enabling people to participate in aspects of the Q?rius experience from anywhere in the world. Other key instruments donated include a comprehensive BX63 life science research microscope system equipped with fluorescence and differential interference contrast illumination optics and an advanced research digital camera; a BX53 life science research microscope configured for polarized light microscopy; several BX43 upright compound teaching microscopes, each equipped with five viewing heads for teaching and group observation; and dozens of stereo and dissecting microscopes set up throughout the Q?rius space for use by visitors and school groups. As an added benefit, users will be coached and mentored in using the equipment by Smithsonian scientists and trained educator-volunteers. Along with hardware and software, Olympus is providing extensive staff time for training and support.
"It is an honor to be part of the vital Q?rius program. We are proud to help members of the public participate in the scientific process in collaboration with The Smithsonian, and, through their experience, be inspired to support scientific research and to pursue careers in science," said Hidenao Tsuchiya, President, Scientific Equipment Group, Olympus Corporation of the Americas. "Olympus has roots in innovation, healthcare and service to humanity that go back nearly a century. Today, supporting science education is one of our top corporate priorities, and we are a natural fit with the goals and challenges of Q?rius."
Q?rius, located on the ground floor of the museum at the north entrance on Constitution Avenue N.W., will open to the public on Dec. 12. Olympus equipment has already arrived at the Museum and the full complement of instruments will be in use by the end of December.

This researcher interviewed 200 successful start-ups to find out what they all had in common. How does your company stack up?
Most start-ups fail--but the extraordinary few that succeed practice six shared habits.
Based on my interviews with over 200 entrepreneurs, I've developed the Hungry Start-up Strategy Index (HSSI) that scores a start-up from 0 to 100 based on how well it does these six relative to the world's best.
What are your start-up's odds for success? Based on anecdotal evidence, they are not good. I have spoken with venture capitalists who say that in a year they review 1,000 business plans and invest in two or three.
Of the other 997, perhaps some get funded by VCs, others bootstrap or get funds from friends and family, and still others give up. Of the ones that get funded, typically one out of 10 is a big success. And one in 10,000 gets to be worth $1 billion or more.
Two extraordinarily successful start-ups I have interviewed - Westborough, Mass.-based SimpliVity -- its hardware lowers the total cost of ownership for corporate IT departments and Waltham, Mass.-based Actifio -- a maker of appliances to lower the cost of copying data, both of which I have interviewed extensively -- have HSSIs that are close to 100.
Here is what it takes to get that score.
1. Setting goals. Start-ups almost always lack the cash to pay market-beating salaries to top talent. One way that they do this is by setting goals that talented people - founding executives, investors, and staff -- find irresistibly compelling.
To practice the first habit well, you must do a great job on these three goals:
Based on their talented executive teams, excellent professionals, and world-class investors, SimpliVity and Actifio have clearly done a great job of setting these three goals.
2. Picking markets. A start-up could pick any market in which to sell its product. But the most successful start-ups pick markets that pass four tests:
SimpliVity and Actifio have picked markets wisely as evidenced by their extremely rapid growth - over five-fold.
3. Raising capital. The most successful start-ups preserve control while obtaining the capital that they need to fuel their growth. Moreover, when they do raise venture capital, they do so with firms that can help them expand due to their brand, connections, and capabilities.
A winning start-up's approach to raising capital passes three tests:
SimpliVity and Actifio both self-funded until they had developed working prototypes and won customers. Once established, they raised capital from firms that have helped them expand.
4. Building the team. As a founder, you can't do everything yourself. A successful entrepreneur is humble enough to know her strengths and weaknesses and to build a company that attracts and motivates talented people who can work together to pursue the company's goals.
To do that, winning start-up CEOs do the following:
5. Gaining share. Given the odds of failure, potential customers don't want to buy a product from a start-up. To overcome those odds, winning venture do the following:
SimpliVity - its product reduces total cost of ownership three-fold -- and Actifio - for every $1 a customer invests in its product, the customer gets $15 in cost savings -- both do that.
6. Adapting to change. Finally, the most successful start-ups adapt well to changing customer needs, upstart competitors, and new technology.
To that end, they do the following:
Both SimpliVity and Actifio have altered their marketing strategies and product lines to respond to changes in boost their growth.

Ben is Professor of Human Geography and a member of the Sussex Centre for Migration Research. He comes to Geography from an interdisciplinary social science background. Before joining Sussex in 2003, Ben was based at the School of Development Studies at the University of East Anglia, where he had been a member of faculty since 1996. He has also worked as a Research Officer at Oxford and Reading Universities, and as a policy advisor at Oxfam (UK). Ben's doctoral research at Oxford University (completed in 1994) focused on employment arrangements for agricultural workers in West Bengal, India. He has subsequently led major research projects in in the UK, India and Mexico.
Head of the Department of Geography
Ben's research divides into two main themes as set out below. Both themes are reflected in his Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Fellowship entitled Places for All? A Multi-Media Investigation of Citizenship, Work and Belonging in a Fast-Changing Provincial City. The Fellowship, which runs until November 2013, forms part of the Royal Society of Arts' Citizen Power in Peterborough Programme. In collaboration with arts practitioner colleagues, Ben is exploring the commonality of multiple place attachments within and across national borders, using oral history, film, photography, and theatre. The Fellowship also involves an investigation of changing employment patterns in Peterborough in the context of the building of new residential areas and relatively high levels of inward migration.
1 Social and historical geographies of identity, 'race', place, class, faith and migration in England
Ben's recent work with historian Becky Taylor has used archival, ethnographic and oral history evidence to disrupt the popular idea that white working class communities are fixed in place and threatened by the arrival of immigrants and people of colour. One of the key arguments of Ben and Becky's recent book Moving Histories of Class and Community: Identity, Place and Belonging in Contemporary England is that white working-class emigration, and the continued stretching of 'indigenous' lifeworlds both within and across national boundaries, have influenced contemporary debates on 'race' and immigration. A second key argument stresses the importance of relationality and ambivalence in subjective experiences of class and place, not least in schools and in universities. The book was drawn on by Lynsey Hanley in a recent Guardian article. A paperback edition with a Foreword by Lynsey was published in April 2011.
Ben was co-investigator in an exploratory follow-on project, funded by the research councils' Connected Communities programme, called Sacred Communities: Connected Practices Across Place and Time. This research - a collaboration with anthropologist Abby Day - included a review of transcripts from a total of 143 interviews, conducted as part of Ben and Becky's previous work in Norwich and Abby's in North Yorkshire. The research aimed to produce new insights on the everyday, embodied practices of faith and community, focusing on the ways such practices stretch (and change) across space and time.
2 Political economic geographies of temporary migrant work in India and the UK
Ben's research on work-place regimes for temporary migrant workers has focused mainly on the agricultural sector. In the UK he has carried out in-depth interviews with employers, labour contractors, workers and food retailers, and revealed how the concentration of market power at the retailer end of the food supply chain has led to the intensification of work for people employed in food production.
Ben's multi-scale research insists on simultaneous attention both to the political economic causes of inequality in capitalist work-places, and to workers' subjectivities, including various forms of resistance. In his recent writing he has attempted to extend writing on labour geographies, which has previously focused largely on the agency of workers who are organised in unions, to consider the specific spatiotemporalities of workers hired for just a few weeks or months at a time and who often rely on employers for both accommodation and transport. Ben has also continued to collaborate in research on temporary migrant workers in India with colleagues Janet Seeley, Abdur Rafique and Deeptima Massey. A book of research participants' life histories Known Face, Unkown Life: Voices of Temporary Migrants in West Bengal, edited by Abdur Rafique, has been published in Bengali. An English translation is available on the website of the Development Research Centre on Migration, Globalisation and Poverty, which funded the work.
Ben is Head of the Department of Geography. In Spring Term 2014 he is convening and teaching an MA module: Migration, Inequality and Social Change.
At Sussex he is currently co-supervising five doctoral students:
Debbie Humphry, Moving On? A Class Analysis of Social Mobility in an Inner London Locality, ESRC-funded.
Alexa Neale, Capital Domicide: Home and Murder in the Mid-Twentieth Century Metropolis, AHRC-funded.

He has supervised seven doctoral students through to completion:

Karl Schroeder goes in an unexpected direction with his second Virga novel, and the result is exactly what one hopes for in a sequel. A good sequel is one in which concepts introduced and possibilities only hinted at in earlier books are allowed to flower. Schroeder doesn't let us down. Queen of Candesce doesn't simply rehash Sun of Suns, but expands upon its story and opens up more of Schroeder's stunning world for us to explore, allowing us glimpses of its most wondrous and dangerous secrets, not to mention its strangest denizens.
One thing Queen of Candesce has going for it is that Schroeder has opted for a more interesting protagonist. Venera Fanning — ruthless, pragmatic, unclouded by sentiment, yet whose lifetime of anger and mistrust masks inner fragility — takes center stage for Virga's second act. The plot this time builds gradually in narrative complexity as Schroeder carefully adds one layer upon another like a master craftsman. And the next sentence may spoil some of the ending of book one (though I'll be as careful as I can), so proceed with caution.
Venera was last seen tumbling away into the vast skies of Virga, with the key that controls Candesce, Virga's central sun and main power source, in her possession. Adrift perhaps for days, she is plucked from the sky by one Garth Diamandis, an exile living on the ramshackle and truly jacked up cylinder of Spyre. Unlike most of Virga's spinning habitat nations, Spyre is a baffling and bizarre patchwork of micronations (many comprised of nothing more than a single building and its grounds) and closed, insular societies of antisocials and inbred families, some of whom haven't been seen outside their walls in generations. Still, some of the less dysfunctional of these have formed a council, a sort of little UN, as it were, and many of Spyre's micronations enjoy healthy trade with nations elsewhere in Virga. The little nation of Liris, for example, are the only folks in Virga who grow cherries. So while they're not totally isolated on Spyre, they're certainly a breed apart.
Spyre's largest cylinder is nearly falling apart, with massive gaps in its shell threatening its spin and structural integrity. But the biggest threat to, well, everyone, is the bellicose nation of Sacrus, who won't even let the fanatical Preservationists, whose mission is simply to keep Spyre held together, through their territory. After Venera is rescued, her only goal is to return to her home nation, Slipstream, and her husband, Admiral Chaison Fanning. (Or at least, find out whether or not he's even still alive.) In order to put herself in a position where escaping from Spyre is even possible, Venera masquerades as the heir of a tiny nation, Buridan, long believed abandoned and defunct, in order to land a place on Spyre's council. Sacrus wastes no time in being more than a little thorn in her side. And the events that are set in motion wind up being far, far bigger than she anticipated.
One thing I admired about Queen of Candesce was Schroeder's tightening his focus. In Sun of Suns, he set the action against the entire vastness of Virga, as though, in the enthusiasm of establishing this remarkable world, he couldn't resist showing us all of it. Here, he takes a deep breath and gives us time to acquaint ourselves with just one of Virga's many communities, its people and politics. This time, Schroeder's story just has more humanism, more heart. We meet idealistic rebels who want to spread what they call "emergent democracy" throughout all of Virga. We meet tragic would-be heroes and psychotic botanists. We're introduced to the unusual Dali horses, the distant descendants of those horses brought by Virga's original colonists, and who have adapted to lower gravity conditions in such a way that their bodies — well, you can guess by their names how they must look.
Into this teeming world, Venera discovers for the first time in her life goals outside herself, and while she never lacks for new enemies, she also finds the first friends she's ever really had. And that enables her to build a comfort zone in which the mistrust and fear that have steered her life so far can relax just a bit. I'm not sure a kinder, gentler Venera Fanning was exactly what I was after, but it's a hard-fought character arc for her, and that keeps the emotions truthful and easy sentiment at bay.
Nitpicks? Well, I wouldn't be doing my job without a few. I have to confess to bafflement over the idea that the builders and designers of Virga would allow total access to Candesce, and the absolute power over the whole habitat that entails, simply by the use of one key. I mean, doesn't it take at least two to launch a nuclear missile? (At least that's how it is in the movies.) You'd think there'd be better security measures in place in the event that key fell into the hands of...well...the kinds of nutcases who try to get their hands on it here. Also, while Schroeder handled his action scenes in Sun of Suns like a pro, in this book, there are battle scenes that occasionally lapse into confusion when it isn't always clear whose armies are where, doing what in which direction.
That aside, Queen of Candesce is a smashing second installment in a saga whose combination of imagination, invention and adventure are like nothing else in SF today.

Brandon McCallister charged with obstruction of justice, making false statements
The man who police say helped the suspect in the July 8 murder of Tranice Richardson evade police custody has been arrested and charged with obstruction of justice.
Frederick Police charged Brandon McCallister with obstruction and hindering, accessory and making false statements in connection with his 20-day effort to allegedly help Melvin Smith stay out of custody.
Detectives say that during the course of the investigation, McCallister and Smith communicated regularly following Richardson's murder and had arranged for transportation and a place for Smith to stay in Pittsburgh.
Police had several conversations with McCallister, during which he was made aware that authorities had a warrant for Smith's arrest.
Smith is the suspect in the murder of 33-year-old Richardson, the mother of his child.

Fantastic cucumber salad! We loved it and though I was skeptical about the mint, it did enhance the flavor. We both had seconds ;) I made a half-batch, more than enough for the two of us!
Everything comes together perfectly in this salad, and the mint really adds depth. This would actually work as a summertime meal for me with some warm crusty baguette and a glass of Albarino. The only thing I changed here was substituting a very small amount of finely chopped shallots for the scallions since that was what I had on hand. Delish!!

City Hall's new No. 1 lobbyist? Lawyer who got Emanuel on ballot
BY DAN MIHALOPOULOS Staff Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com June 1, 2012 11:29PM

Top lobbyists
at City Hall
These lobbyists reported making the most money lobbying Chicago city officials in the second half of 2011.
Lobbyist Total pay
Mike Kasper $403,500.98
Donna Pugh $266,000
John Kelly Jr. $244,000
Thomas J. Murphy $223,568
Bernard Citron $145,889

Updated: July 6, 2012 10:23AM
Since helping Mayor Rahm Emanuel turn back an effort to remove him from the 2011 mayoral ballot, Chicago lawyer Mike Kasper has seen his lobbying business boom at City Hall, records show.
Kasper successfully beat back arguments that Emanuel didn't meet the city's residency requirement, allowing him to run for mayor.
Kasper has since seen a sharp increase in the number of clients hiring his firm to lobby City Hall and also in the amount of money that business brings in, according to disclosure reports that City Hall requires lobbyists to file. For the period of January-June 2011, Kasper's firm reported having 11 clients paying a total of $235,666 for lobbying work at City Hall. In the second half of last year — the first full six-month reporting period since Emanuel was sworn in as mayor in May 2011 — Kasper vaulted to No. 1 on the list of top-paid lobbyists working at City Hall. He reported being paid more than $403,000 in that span for City Hall lobbying work — up 42 percent over the first half of the year. That makes Emanuel's first months in office by far the most lucrative for Kasper at City Hall, according to city records, which go back only to 2004. "The numbers are what the numbers are," Kasper said. Emanuel's top spokeswoman, Sarah Hamilton, initially declined to comment when asked last week about Kasper's growing list of City Hall lobbying clients since the mayor's election. After this story first appeared at suntimes.com Saturday, she released a statement: "It doesn't matter who you are or who you represent, the one interest that trumps all is the Chicago taxpayers, and that is who the mayor looks out for. The old way of doing business is over and while old habits may be hard to change, they are changing and will continue to change." Emanuel campaigned to succeed former Mayor Richard M. Daley on a pledge to reform a city government he said was "an insider's game, serving primarily the lobbyists and well-connected." After Emanuel was elected, Kasper's firm soon signed deals worth tens of thousands of dollars apiece annually with corporate clients including Citibank, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, AT&T and Dell. Kasper said in filings with the city Ethics Board that he anticipated lobbying the mayor's office for each of his dozen new clients. Most of Kasper's City Hall lobbying during the final years of the Daley administration involved efforts to influence the City Council. Until his star turn in Emanuel's high-profile residency case, which was finally decided by the Illinois Supreme Court, Kasper was probably best known in political circles for his ties to Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan (D-Chicago). Kasper, 47, was Madigan's top legal counsel and continues to serve as legal counsel and treasurer for the Illinois Democratic Party, which Madigan heads. Kasper also is a prominent lobbyist in Springfield. At City Hall, Kasper was a relatively minor player during the final years of the Daley administration. Then, Emanuel tapped Kasper as his election lawyer in early October 2010. That was just days after Emanuel left his post as President Barack Obama's White House chief of staff and returned to Chicago to run for mayor in the wake of Daley's decision not to seek reelection.
At the time, Kasper had six City Hall lobbying clients at his firm — Fletcher, O'Brien, Kasper & Nottage P.C. Those ranks quickly grew, with five companies signing on between the time of Emanuel's election victory and his swearing-in. Another six have been added to his city government client list in the first nine months of the new administration.
Kasper did not disclose what issues he has been lobbying city officials for on Citibank's behalf. Emanuel recently announced that Citibank N.A. and Citi Infrastructure Partners were among a handful of financial institutions that have "agreed to consider" investing in public works projects to be built through the mayor's new Chicago Infrastructure Trust program. A spokeswoman for Citibank declined to comment on why the company hired Kasper. Executives for AT&T declined to comment on the $100,000-a-year agreement the company signed with Kasper's firm in December. Dell signed a $72,000-a-year deal in February. In his Ethics Board filing, Kasper said he expected to lobby Chicago school officials, as well as the mayor and aldermen, on Dell's behalf. "Dell values Mr. Kasper's advice and understanding of the public policy environment in Chicago," company spokeswoman Hillary Maxwell said.
A spokeswoman for the council said it didn't renew its deal with Kasper when it ran out at the end of April.
Kasper's firm's other city lobbying work includes deals with Delaware North Companies ($80,004 a year), which has expressed interest in a pending bid to operate airport concessions; Dominion Voting Systems ($60,000 a year), which provides voting machines to the city; and the Academy for Urban School Leadership ($75,000 a year), which operates charter schools.
"We engaged his services before my time, so I don't know how we came to the point where we hired him," said AUSL spokeswoman Deirdre Campbell. "I don't know the specifics of everything he has worked on, but I can say we have been happy."

Homemade, Truly Yummy, Real Bread & Dinner Rolls
Categories: Breads, Recipes, Thanksgiving
Tags: , Allergy Friendly, Dairy Free, Dinner Rolls, Thanksgiving
As we edge ever closer to Thanksgiving, many of our thoughts are turning to bread. All kinds of breads like dinner rolls and sandwich loaves for those Turkey-day leftovers, and of course, stuffing. None of us should feel deprived on Thanksgiving, no matter the dietary restriction, but invariably folks living gluten-free begin to panic when considering how to tackle Thanksgiving stuffing.
Well I have some great, easy answers for you! They all involve starting now to think about your bread baking though.
Stuffing's primary ingredient is what — bread, right? And more specifically, stale bread. So consider all those dry, crumbly store-bought frozen loaves you probably have shoved behind the frozen broccoli and veggie burgers (ok, that's in my freezer, you think about whatever is in yours!). Those are perfect for making stuffing because they're already stale! Use those up on your stuffing and make room in your freezer for good food!
Another option is to use this opportunity to perfect your homemade gluten-free bread baking. Anything you make between now and Thanksgiving could make its way into your stuffing dish, no matter whether you consider it to be a failure or a success. If you bake bread with that in mind, you won't be so hard on yourself if your bread sinks or is too dry, doesn't rise much or has a hard crust … any bread can make a decent stuffing. Really! Once you bake a few loaves, you'll be an expert and will have worked out any kinks so you'll be ready for those Thanksgiving dinner rolls too!
A still easier option is just to use my new bread mix, which contains all the flours, dry ingredients and yeast you'll need to make a great, fresh loaf.
(Check out my video with a 15 year old boy making my gluten-free yeast bread mix using a bowl and wooden spoon if you think you can't make gluten-free bread!)
So get in there and start baking, slice up any leftovers or "failures" and freeze them for your Thanksgiving stuffing, or at least dig through your freezer now to make sure you still have that door-stop (aka frozen bread) from the store that you can repurpose.
Give this recipe a try for from-scratch baking or try my new bread mix if you want to save yourself a bit of shopping, measuring and mixing. Your home will be filled with the wonderful smells of yeast bread and your heart will be relieved to know you'll be ready for Thanksgiving with much less stress!
(PS- Need a good stuffing recipe, try mine!)
Want to try another yeast bread variation? Read this article from the Patriot-News, reviewing another of my easy and delicious bread recipes!
Sandwich Bread
- 2 3/4 cups Jules Gluten Free™ All-Purpose Flour
- 1/4 cup flax seed meal (or buckwheat flour)
- 1/2 cup millet flour, sorghum flour, brown rice flour, GF Oat Flour or Jules Gluten Free™ All-Purpose Flour
- 1/4 cup dry milk powder, dairy or non-dairy (e.g. Vance's DariFree™ Original milk powder)
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 2 tsp. baking powder, gluten-free
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 2 Tbs. honey, agave nectar or coconut palm nectar
- 1 1/4 cup room temperature liquid:
- 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 large eggs (or 2 Tbs. flax seed meal steeped for 10 minutes in 6 Tbs. hot water)
- 1 Tbs. rapid rise or bread machine yeast, gluten-free (Red Star Quick Rise®)
- 1 Tbs. flaxseeds or sesame seeds
- 1 Tbs. coarse sea salt
(Oven Method)
If baking with scratch recipe, whisk these dry ingredients together in a large bowl: flours, milk powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
In the large mixing bowl of a stand mixer, stir together the wet ingredients (honey, beer/ale, apple cider vinegar, oil and egg or flax seed and water mixture). Gradually add the dry ingredients by pouring slowly into the wet bowl while mixing with the paddle attachment. Once incorporated, add the yeast granules and beat well for 2 more minutes.
If using yogurt, the dough will be thick; if using another liquid ingredient, the dough will be more batter-like.
Spoon the dough into an oiled bread pan (use a dark metal pan if you like a darker crust on your bread; lighter, shiny metal or glass if you like a light crust).
Smooth the top, sprinkle with any toppings, then cover with a damp towel or a sheet of parchment sprayed with cooking oil. Allow the covered dough to rise for at least 30 minutes (one hour is preferable) in a warm place like an oven warming drawer or an oven preheated to 200° F then turned off.
Remove the cover from the raised dough and transfer to a preheated convection oven set to 325° F or a preheated static oven set to 350° F. Cook for approximately 60 minutes, or until the crust is browning nicely and a cake tester or skewer inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean (internal temperature should reach 205-210° F). Remove to a cooling rack.
When cooled for 15 minutes, gently remove from the loaf pan to finish cooling before slicing.
Prepare muffin tins or popover trays by oiling. Scoop equal amounts into each tray and smooth the tops. Sprinkle desired toppings. Cover and rise as directed above. Bake at 350° F convection or 375° F static for 12-15 minutes, or until set.
(Bread Machine Method):
Whisk together the yolks and whites before adding to the bread machine with the other liquids; alternatively, allow the flax seed meal to steep in water for 10-15 minutes before adding. Bring all liquids to room temperature before adding to the machine, if possible.
Whisk together dry ingredients and add on top of liquids in the pan. Make a well in the center and add the yeast. Select either the gluten-free bread setting on your machine, or the setting with only one rise cycle and no punch-down (2 lb loaf setting).
Once the ingredients have mixed, the dough will be very thick (much more like regular wheat flour bread dough than you may be used to with gluten-free); however, if the dough seems too thick as it is mixing in this recipe, gradually add more yogurt, one tablespoon at a time while the bread machine is mixing, until the dough is still very thick, but able to be smoothed with a spatula. Be sure to check the bread with a spatula throughout the mixing process to ensure that all the dry ingredients have been incorporated.
When the machine is done mixing, smooth the top with a rubber spatula and sprinkle any desired toppings on top of the loaf. Close lid to bake.
Test the temperature of the interior of the loaf before removing from the pan – it should have reached approximately 205-210° F. If it hasn't yet reached that temperature, either add time to your bread machine as another bake cycle, or simply put the pan into a regular oven at 350° F (static), testing the temperature again at five minute intervals.

This bread recipe sounds and looks fantastic! Thank you so much for giving vegan equivalents, too. I bake everything with So Delicious coconut milk yogurt and beverages now and get truly delicious results.
Lori said: on November 2, 2010
This sounds so yummy – I'm GF, Soy, Flax, dairy free – can you use Chia seeds as a substitute for egg – if so, what proportions?
Jules said: on November 3, 2010
Hi Lori,
Funny you should ask that question about chia! I just discussed that with the chia seed growers I met at the Healthy Baking Seminar in Anaheim and I also asked the Salba folks I met at Natural Products Expo East in Boston about using their product for an egg substitute.
I would first try it in the same proportion that you read about for flax-egg substitute: typically 1 tablespoon seeds to 3 tablespoons very warm/hot water. Allow it to steep until viscous, then add as the equivalent of 1 egg. I discuss this more in depth in my newest book, Free for All Cooking, which just came out in October!
Cari said: on November 6, 2010
is there any substitution for yeast?
Jules said: on November 6, 2010
Hi Cari, in my newest book, Free for All Cooking, I published a great yeast-free bread recipe which you could easily make into dinner rolls as well. You can see this recipe as one of my postings as the gluten-free cooking expert on Celiac.com as well. Hope you enjoy!
Angel said: on November 11, 2010
Hi Jules,
I tried making this bread and had disappointing results. It came out very dense and soft in the middle. I used the flax seed meal for the eggs and used coconut flour instead of millet flour. I'm wondering if I did something wrong with the yeast. I used the rapid rise yeast, but not sure if I activated it correctly. I just added in the yeast granules into the mixture. Should I have mixed them with the sugar first?
Jules said: on November 11, 2010
Hi Angelina,
If you aren't sure about your yeast, always proof it first. I just made a loaf a couple days ago with the bottle of rapid rise yeast from my fridge which should have been fresh … something told me (after I added the yeast, of course!) to double check that it was still good, so I proofed a little in a bowl with warm water and sugar while I finished prepping the pan. Nothing happened at all! So, I had to add a packet of fresh yeast to the bread, luckily before it went into the oven, and it turned out just fine.
It's hard when using packets of yeast to do a separate proofing, so you can proof before you add to the bread, but it's not typically necessary with gluten-free bread to do so. Adding it into the mixture and mixing it very well before baking is really all that is needed; of course, the yeast needs to be fresh though! As well, any other chemical leaveners like baking soda and baking powder should also be checked for freshness.
Aside from that, the coconut flour is the one variable I can't account because I haven't tried it in this particular recipe. It could be that its higher fat content and differing moisture retention qualities affected your outcome. Try this recipe again with buckwheat, brown rice or gluten-free oat flour if you prefer not to use millet. It should work nicely for you. You could also just try my new bread mix which has all the dry ingredients you'd need, premixed with a fresh yeast packet.-

To respond to Angel…My experience with coconut flour is that you use less and get more out of it. It's super absorbent as well as having a higher fat content from the MCFA's. I haven't had good luck with coconut flour so far, which I guess is alright since it's so expensive!

I made this bread last night and it's amazing. It's absolutely delicious!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe with us!
Finally I found a bread recipe that I love and is healthy. Will definitely make it again and again and again!
Thank you again!

Made an even more healthful treat with the addition of oat bran. This bread makes a good snack, dessert or even breakfast. INGREDIENTS: * 1½ cups white sugar * ½ cup butter, softened * 3 really ripe bananas, mashed * 2 eggs * 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour * ½ cup oat bran * 1 tsp baking soda * ⅓ cup sour milk or buttermilk * ¼ tsp. salt * 1 tsp vanilla extract DIRECTIONS: 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8″ x 4″ loaf pan. 2. Combine all ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Beat well. Pour batter into pan. Bake on middle shelf of oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean…Banana Nut Bread
Jules said: on January 7, 2011
One word of caution: be sure to buy certified gluten-free oat bran for a recipe like that one! Thanks for sharing the recipe though!
Becky said: on January 9, 2011
My son was diagnosed with gluten intolerance in November. Since then I have been cooking and baking up a storm. I have always been in the kitchen making my own creations so this has been a challenge. I was excited when I came across Jules bread mix. I ordered 2 5# bags of all purpose flour, 2 bread mixes, and 1 gingersnap cookie mix with recipe books too. I'm stressed that my bread does not rise well. It takes forever to rise even a small amount. I haven't had this issue with wheat flour and presume it is the yeast. What is the best way to proof the yeast packets that come with the bread mix that will not harm the bread recipe? Thanks.
Jules said: on January 10, 2011
Hi Becky, your son is very lucky to have such a dedicated baker for a mom! I like rapid rise yeast for my gluten-free breads, so that's what's in my bread mix – that might make a difference for you. In many recipes, I feel like the majority of the rising occurs during the bake time for GF breads, but different recipes behave differently. If you've been using a lot of heavier GF flours, that could tamp down the rise as well. See how you like my bread mix and if the rapid rise yeast works better for you. If you still find the bread not rising enough for your liking, try some of my homemade bread recipes with my flour instead of the mix, since I added more whole grains to my bread mix for their nutritional value, but they are heavier than my regular flour is. Using just my flour, you'll get a good rise for any loaf, since my flour is very light.
Jodi said: on January 12, 2011
My mom has your all-purpose flour and really wants to be able to use it to make bread in her bread machine. Do you have a recipe somewhere for a 1 1/2 lb. bread machine loaf?
Jules said: on January 13, 2011
This recipe is great in the bread machine. Look above for specific bread machine directions (in the recipe). Enjoy!
Pam Smith said: on January 18, 2011
I made this recipe with out good results . Im not sure what went wrong.The only thing i did differant is added milk instead of milk powder.I made it in my bread maker and it turned out really heavy with a after taste. What the heck am I doing wrong??
Jules said: on January 18, 2011
Hi Pam, unfortunately, milk powder and actual milk are not interchangeable. In this recipe, the milk powder (not reconstituted) adds structure, helping to make this moist bread still able to be very thinly sliced. By adding milk instead, that structural addition was lost, and there was too much moisture in the recipe which made the bread so heavy. If you prefer to try the recipe again without the milk powder, definitely do that rather than adding additional moisture by adding milk. Don't give up! It's a great recipe!
Pam Smith said: on January 21, 2011
Thanks you so much for the reply! I really wondered about the milk. I will try the bread again only with the milk powder Thanks again. I loved the bread mix i got from you and your flour is great. Pam
Debbie said: on February 23, 2011
Hi Jules,
I used this recipe in my new Oster Bread Maker and it came out wonderfully. I didn't have Millet flour so I used Oat flour. I also added a TBS of whole flax seed to batter. My husband said it didn't even taste gluten free. If I hadn't told him he would've have known.
Thanks for all your hard work on behalf of all of us!-
Michelle said: on May 18, 2011
What setting did you use on the Oster Bread Machine? I have the same brand and have NOT been able to figure out the best setting to use? Thanks!!
Jules said: on May 18, 2011
Hi Michelle, the Oster machine I have has a GF setting and I just used it as programmed. I always recommend having an instant read thermometer on hand though, so you can take its temperature and be sure it's really done before taking it out!
Jessica said: on February 24, 2011
I going to make the dinner roll version soon! I want to sprinkle a little fresh garlic and oregano on top.
Katie said: on May 27, 2011
Hi Jules! I've made this bread 3 times now. The last time I made it I ran out of yogurt. I substitued the yogurt with milk with a bit of vinegar added to make a buttermilk substitute and it turned out great! I too added some whole flax seeds to the batter as well. I'm thinking about adding some sunflower seeds next time and see how that works I'm getting more brave to try to variations to this recipe. Regardless, it is SO yummy and doesn't last long in our house.
Jules said: on May 30, 2011
Oh Katie, that's wonderful! That's exactly the way I am – I just substitute with whatever I have on hand and see how it works. Sometimes I like the experiment better! So glad to hear about your successes!
Beth said: on September 22, 2011
I haven't had any luck in finding the darifree milk powder in VT. Is there a substitution you'd recommend for the milk powder?
Jules said: on September 26, 2011
Hi Beth – I believe you can order it online, but otherwise, if you can tolerate almond meal, I would recommend that as a good dairy-free alternative. You can follow my recipe to make your own for much less money, too!
Lyn Miller said: on November 20, 2011
Hi Jules, wanted to try out your dinner rolls but have a question on the dry milk powder. Do you have to use milk powder or could you milk instead. I have no powdered milk in my kitchen.
Jules said: on November 21, 2011
Lyn, when dry milk powder is called for in a recipe, it has to be accounted for/subbed for with another dry ingredient. It absolutely won't work to add liquid milk in its place unless a recipe says to reconstitute the dry milk powder as milk. In this recipe, as a second choice you could sub in almond meal in place of the dry milk powder; third choice would be to add the same amount of flour. Hope that helps!
Pat said: on November 24, 2011
Hi Jules,
I have been receiving your newsletters for some time but so far have been unable to try your products as they are not available in Canada. Will they become available anytime soon? I'd love to try some.
Jules said: on November 26, 2011
Pat – we're working on a plan to be able to ship products to Canada – we definitely want to do it, but the paperwork and shipping costs are so high that we're still in process. Hang in there – we hope to make it a reality soon! In the meantime, do you know anyone in the States who could receive shipment for you?
LaDora said: on February 6, 2012
I bought a package of your bread mix so I could use it in my bread machine, but was surprised when there were no instructions on the package on how to use it that way; instead there were directions to look for them on this web site. But I have hunted and hunted and can't find them. Have I just overlooked them?
Jules said: on February 6, 2012
LaDora – sorry you had trouble finding the bread machine directions. There is a link on our home page for the store, but it's easy to overlook. The directions are super simple. Here's the link: http://www.julesglutenfree.com/Articles.asp?ID=151

This is such a great recipe! We love making things at home and this bread recipe sounds delightful! Thanks for sharing
Carol Davis said: on April 27, 2012
Jules, I have tried your bread recipe twice and both times it has raised and browned and fallen after I have taken it out of the oven. With the second loaf, I did use a thermometer and it read 210, but the bottom of the thermometer appeared to have a little bread on it. The one thing I have done differently than the recipe is to use quick cooking oats instead of the oat flour. I really want a little more texture in the bread. Could this be the cause of it not getting properly baked through? I have baked bread for years – just not gluten free so I'm trying not to do what I have in the past. Thanks!
Jules said: on April 28, 2012
Hi Carol – I would definitely say that using oats instead of oat flour is making a difference in this bread. Instead, I would use the oat flour and to add texture, add sunflower seeds and/or flax or chia seeds. Sound like a good compromise?
Carol Davis said: on April 30, 2012
Thanks. I will give it a try.
Karen said: on May 3, 2012
If you are subbing the eggs, watch the video for the consistency. Some flours soak up more liquid than others. Brown rice soaks up a lot.
It ends up thinner than pizza dough. It is spoonable, you shouldn't have a lump of dough like regular bread. It won't rise if it is too tough. Maybe everyone else knows that but I am not an expert baker.
My first batch of this was a disappointment. I had to do the flax steep for eggs and used soy plain yogurt. I also used brown rice and buckwheat flours. The liquid ratio was not right. Of course I figured this out afterwards. If you get dough that is too thick for the paddle attachment to go through you need more liquid.
Trying again right now, using more liquids. Using the recipe from your book, which is very close to this one. Will post results.

Sandra said: on October 7, 2012
My bread is raising in the oven as I type this – I am so excited by your mix and recipes and have tried several already with great success. My only problem is that I'm Canadian and you can"t ship to me – so until I get to the states to shop I am using an old make-your-own Jules mix from your earlier days. That being said where in Syracuse or Rochester can I buy many pounds of flour to bring home? Or should I just have a big order shipped to my hotel?
Jules said: on October 7, 2012
Hi Sandra – I'm so glad you have been enjoying my recipes and flour! It does get to be a bit of a drag to have to make a flour mixture from scratch, so I totally understand about wanting to get the pre-mixed blend! I am so sorry that we are not yet able to ship to Canada … we do have a retailer in Rochester though! Call first to be sure they have plenty in stock before you go! Lori's Natural Food: 900 Jefferson Rd., Rochester, NY 14623 585-424-2323. Hope that helps!!
Sandra said: on October 7, 2012
Thanks so much Jules – I will call ahead!
Linda said: on October 27, 2012
Trying to plan ahead for the holidays.
What size loaf pan did you use for the oven method? And how many rolls would I get from this recipe?Thanks!
Julie said: on November 13, 2012
I am so thankful I found your recipes and your flour! My daughter has recently been diagnosed as having celiac disease, and my goal was to find a good bread for her. This was wonderful!! I followed the recipe using eggs with the only exception being sorghum instead of millet. The only think I had a problem with was that it did not rise very much. I let it rise for 30 minutes. Should I let it rise longer? I'm wondering if the 200 degree oven (turned off) was too hot??
Thank you so much for your blog!
Jules said: on November 13, 2012
Hi Julie – so glad you found me! I always recommend letting bread rise longer, if you have the time. The only worry is if it starts to rise above the pan, then it may collapse when baking. Keep checking on it, and when it has reached the top of the pan, then you can go ahead and bake it. I've experimented with all different bread loaf pans and sizes – it really depends on what you want your ultimate loaf to look like – if you want square slices, go with a square baking pan; wider slices, wider pan; taller slices, shorter pan with tall sides. It's fun to experiment when you get to do all the taste-testing!!! Enjoy!
Doreen said: on June 11, 2013
Hi Jules Please Help,
I used your bread mix yesterday & it turned out perfect (loved it)….I followed this recipe today & it is nothing like the mix…..I weighed the flour in grams as suggested, but the taste & texture is totally different.
Could you please tell me what is different?
Thanks bunches, Very new to this:-)
Jules Shepard said: on June 11, 2013
Hi Doreen – so glad you love my bread mix! It's not the same as this recipe, so don't expect the results to be exactly alike. Was there something wrong with the results, or they were just different than you expected since you'd used my mix before?
Doreen said: on June 11, 2013
Hi Jules,
Just totally different, it was whiter, and not as moist or dense, it didn't taste bad, just not like your bread mix that is awesome…..since I am on SS I was trying to save a little by making mine from scratch with the same results:-)
I did notice that there was buckwheat in your mix, I do have some on order thru VitaCost. Maybe that will help.
Thanks bunches for your input,
Jules Shepard said: on June 12, 2013
No problem, Doreen! Have you tried this recipe yet? The buckwheat will make the color and taste change, so give it a shot!
Doreen said: on June 12, 2013
Hi Jules,
me again:-)
one quick question, I was watching some of the your youtube videos…(love them) do you suggest using "coarse" sea salt in all of the recipes? I used Himalayan "fine" salt with minerals…. could that have been part of the problem?
Thanks bunches,
Jules Shepard said: on June 12, 2013
Hi Doreen – glad the videos are useful to you! I need to find time to make more! About the salt, I often use a combination of both coarse and fine sea salt in applications like pastries and biscuits and some breads because it helps give layers to the dough in rising. I don't think the difference in the salts would have caused the differences you experienced between my bread mix and making a bread recipe from scratch. What other flours besides mine did you use when you baked the loaf from scratch? That's probably the source of most of the differences you noticed.
Doreen said: on June 13, 2013
Hi Jules,
I used Arrowhead Mills Organic Millet flour & Bob's Organic Golden flax-seed meal.-
Jules Shepard said: on June 14, 2013
Hi Doreen, yes, I think you will like it better if you use the buckwheat flour instead of millet. That will more closely match the taste you like of my sandwich bread mix.
Doreen said: on June 14, 2013
Thanks Jules,
I will give it a try this weekend…..
Kaely said: on August 12, 2013
My husband and sons have Celiac Disease, so being introduced to your flours this past week has been a HUGE blessing to us! i made your pizza dough from scratch today and it was amazing, I've also used your all-purpose flour for cake and muffin recipes that I love with no issues at all! I have a question for you: I don't have any of the other flours mentioned here or almond meal at the moment, but I'd really like to make a basic sandwich bread with your all-purpose flour. Can I sub your flour for all the other flours and the dry milk or is there another recipe I should try instead? Thanks!!-
Jules Shepard said: on August 12, 2013
Kaely, that is so wonderful to hear! I'm so glad you found me and my products!! As for a bread recipe, I'd actually recommend using my GF beer bread recipe, believe it or not! It makes yummy buns, too, but if you scroll to the bottom of the recipe, you'll find the directions for making a loaf … yum!!!! And no other flours are required! Enjoy!!!

Carla Reverse-Jersey Hat
Very, Very Nice
The "scarf" is really a snood, so be prepared for a lot of fabric that you can either wear over your head (without the hat) or as a huge and decoratively woven scarf. It is made with a very generous size knit and a lot of wool. It's not a dainty look, but if you can carry off something a bit bold and unusual (or just want something very warm) you will love it. I have the hat and scarf/snood in the oatmeal color, and another hat in the grey color. Don't miss out -- a great value, especially as a set.
February 24, 2014
Big and beautiful
I bought the hat and the scarf. Love the oatmeal color and the big cable knit. The hat is so much better than smaller, close-fitting types because it can be styled the way I want it. The scarf is over-sized and bulky and is best worn outdoors as outer wear. With the right thing (I wear it with a wool poncho), it looks great.
February 4, 2014
Style & Warmth
Bought the hat. Love the color , softness and light weight comfort.
January 21, 2014
nice style
I've been waiting for a 'beanie' with bigger volume and this one is indeed more ample. However, I have to wear a simple felt one under it or it causes uncontrollably wild static electricity (maybe just my hair, but was thinking I just couldn't wear it until I found this solution--very glad because I do like the color, warmth and style).
January 5, 2014
Not sure what to do with it
I'll start by saying it is a nice color and a great texture. It is a substantial amount of scarf and an interesting design. It was huge on me. I tried 10 different ways to make it work and sadly it just doesn't work for me. I guess I'll be sticking to basic old long scarves.
December 31, 2013
Too bulky and warm
The scarf is well made and lovely to look at out of the box but too heavy to leave on indoors.

Izzy was a daredevil and figured the way to her father's heart was to take risks. But now she finds herself needing surgery that could fix her eyesight or leave her totally blind. She isn't sure she is willing to take that kind of risk. Her sisters Skye and Lexi worry and set her up for an intervention with a man who is known for his ability to help kids who have had it rough.
Nick Hollister is a complicated man. He was raised mainly in foster homes, was super geeky and ended up in college at age 15. A fellow collegian took him under his wing, helping him keep from getting beat up all the time, helping him figure out the social world of the campus and for his efforts, Nick helped him get passing grades. That fellow was Garth Duncan. Shortly after college, Nick and Garth got involved in an oil dwelling investment in South America. Things went wrong, a few innocent bystanders died and the family took out their revenge on Nick and Garth. They underwent weeks of torture. Garth helped keep Nick alive and then Nick helped Garth escape. For many years, they have been each other's only family. Nick now owns a ranch where he hosts corporate retreats and he also allows kids from the foster system to come spend time on the ranch, teaching them about horses and about life.
The first half of the book is about Nick and Izzy and getting Izzy to agree to the surgery. There are characters aplenty on the ranch to help Nick. Izzy is sullen and rude and goes through a transformation from a self-pitying snob to a woman ready to accept the challenge of life. She is also falling for Nick.
The next quarter of the book involves their romance. This is a sweet romance, even though the secret of Nick's friendship with Garth is hanging over Nick's head. There are many individual secrets revealed as Nick and Izzy both have major trust and relationship issues. Finally, we have the last part of the book that is the resolution of their relationship, the continuation of Garth and his antics and a set up for the next book in the series.
This book is a mixed bag. There is a lot to like about both Nick and Izzy as they find their legs after fairly traumatic episodes in their lives. Yet at times, they come across too full of self-pity. Their romance is generally engaging and their sexual encounters hot, yet there were times when it all felt so manipulative. Since the drama they have lived through seemed a little over the top at times, I didn't fully understand either of them. And having read the previous book, I wasn't sure I was reading about the same Izzy I had met before.
Overall, this book is interesting and there is certainly no lack of activity. It was a little harder to get engaged in the emotional aspect making it hard to fully recommend Straight from the Hip to anyone other than diehard fans of the series. The final book does intrigue me how Mallery will turn the aforementioned anti-hero Garth into a good guy.
