Excerpt from Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day by Jeff Hertzberg, MD
We love food, and we love bread best of all. It was our bread obsession that brought us together for a cookbook in the first place. Our first book (Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking) created an unlikely team: a doctor and a pastry chef. But it turned out to be a great combination. One review of our book called us "the Chemist and the Alchemist," though on any given day we reverse roles at will. Our partnership worked because amateurs found the result extraordinarily easy, yet aficionados found it utterly delicious. In writing that book, we wanted to discard everything that was intimidating and make the pro cess fast enough to fit into people's busy lives. Artisan Bread replaced the time- consuming traditional yeast bread method with something quicker, without compromising quality. This technique calls for mixing large batches of dough in advance, storing them in the refrigerator, and then tearing off dough for loaves as needed over two weeks. Quite a lot of people tried it, and our book became part of a home- baked bread revolution.
Along the way, we started our blog at www .artisanbreadinfive .com, so that we could be in touch with readers who had questions or comments. It became a place to share new information that we'd learned. It's been great fun-- people have even written poems to us about their bread. We've heard emotional stories about entire families making bread together: grandmas making pizza with their grandkids, and siblings baking long- distance (some even across oceans). Our blog space is a forum for feedback and requests, and the most common ones have been for breads with more whole grains, seeds, nuts, and even for gluten- free breads. The requests came from as far away as Europe, Asia, and Australia. It seems that the world is becoming a healthier place. People were asking for whole grain breads that they could bake themselves, but they still wanted the same five- minute method. So the idea for our second book came from our readers. Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day became our next logical step for making breads and even desserts part of a healthy diet.
We both eat some sugar, white flour, and butter. In other words, we're not health-food fanatics. But that's not to say we aren't health- conscious. We both exercise, and ultimately we watch what we eat. We wrote our first book with the goal of getting people back into their kitchens to bake really great bread, with recipes mostly inspired by the Europe an tradition. That meant lots of white flour. We ate it in moderation while we tested the book, and believe it or not, despite the much- maligned reputation of carbohydrates, we didn't gain weight. We were both pleasantly surprised. Bread and desserts can be part of a healthy lifestyle, so long as you eat them in moderation.
Whether you are looking for more whole grains, whether you're vegan, gluten- free, watching your weight, trying to reduce your cholesterol, or just care about what goes into your body, Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day has recipes for you. We all want to be healthy, and now we can do it without sacrificing flavor or precious time. It's obvious why this would make sense for Jeff (the doctor). His background in health care and preventive medicine leads him to alternatives that are lower in calories, with healthier fats and higher fiber. Then, there's his passion for bread baking, which led to the discovery we wrote about in our first book, making artisan breads quickly and easily. Not everyone needs to make their brioche without butter, but if doing so means that someone who can't eat butter can enjoy fabulous brioche, then by all means let's do it, and do it right.
That's where Zo? (the pastry chef), comes into the picture. She grew up the daughter of hippies and cut her teeth on the ultra- healthy bread served at the Vermont commune where she was raised. In her twenties Zo? was a vegetarian; she didn't eat refined sugar and headed off to the Culinary Institute of America (CIA) to follow her passion, pastry. Her goal: bake without refined sugar, but create ethereal pastries that didn't weigh a ton and taste like sweetened tree bark. But while studying at the CIA, Zo? was tempted by the miracles of sugar, bleached flour, heavenly butter, and all of the other ingredients she had once shunned. She was being seduced away from the whole grains, fruit sweeteners, and carob that had been the staples of her counterculture childhood. Years later, Zo? would figure out a way to have it all: great-tasting but healthy pastries, desserts, and of course, breads.
So we both were drawn to write a new book that combines superfast bread with healthy ingredients. Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day is about taking the speedy methods of Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day and adapting them for breads made with less white flour (sometimes none), lower refined sugars, and healthier ingredients. We're not going to claim that eating these breads is the key to a longer life. But we can show bread eaters who want to use more nutritious ingredients how to get results as delicious and fast as those they achieved with our first book. So Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day will not be 250 pages of preaching and scolding about health and diet; neither of us has the patience for that.
We'll use the same wet, stored- dough method and we won't make anyone knead. But as you'll see, we're switching to healthier alternatives: whole grains, canola and olive oils, nuts, seeds, natural sweeteners, and in some cases, gluten- free ingredients. Where white flour (or butter) is required, we've tried to decrease the total amount that goes into the recipe. And we kept active daily preparation time to five minutes for the basic recipes. We assume that this newfound interest in health hasn't been accompanied by a newfound wealth of free time! A doctor and a pastry chef turn out to be a great match to create recipes that are not only good for you but that also taste fantastic. So now healthy eaters can have their bread (or pastry) and eat it, too!
As you read through the book, please visit our Web site ( www .healthybreadinfive .com), where you'll find instructional text, photographs, videos, and a community of other five- minute-a-day bakers.

Happy baking, and enjoy all the bread!
Why Eat Healthy Bread: A Wee Bit of Science
Being alive takes energy, and that energy comes from burning carbohydrate fuels with oxygen in our bodies (that's called oxidation). Even though oxidation is perfectly natural and healthy, it releases some nasty chemicals. So does exposure to sunlight, chemicals, pollutants, and radiation. All that oxidation and energy can create what biochemists call "superoxide radicals," which we've heard of as "free radicals," high- energy chemicals that can do damage to our cells. Free- radical damage has a role in a host of chronic diseases, including cancer, hardening of the arteries, heart disease, stroke, and arthritis. The good news: Our bodies get help in getting rid of free radicals from phytochemicals (beneficial plant chemicals) and vitamins in our food, both natural substances with powerful health benefits. They act as potent antioxidants, chemicals that absorb damaging energy from free radicals. Phytochemicals with antioxidant activity tend to be richly colored: green, yellow, blue, and red. Some of the most colorful fruits and vegetables have the largest stores of phytochemicals. As you work through chapter 7, Breads with Hidden Fruits and Vegetables, you'll feast your eyes on a stunning and colorful palette of breads. Substances like phytochemicals are the reason that the U.S. government recommends that you eat nine or more servings of fruits and vegetables per day. These breads will help you do it.
Vitamins are essential helpers for the body's normal chemical functions (metabolism), allowing the chemical reactions we depend upon to take place. Lack of vitamins cause some of the world's most devastating but curable deficiency diseases, which have pretty much disappeared in the industrialized world. But deficiency diseases are the tip of the iceberg-- many vitamins don't just act as metabolic catalysts, they're also antioxidants. This is especially clear for vitamin E. There is strong evidence that normal levels of vitamin E prevent heart, blood, muscle, and eye problems. Vitamin E is found in wheat germ (from whole grain wheat), vegetable oils, seeds, and nuts. Vitamin C, another powerful antioxidant, works in concert with vitamin E. Throughout the book, we'll jump in with sidebars about the vitamins-- vitamin A, the eight B vitamins (see Appendix, page 307), plus vitamins C, D, E, and K (please do not ask us why there is no vitamin F, G, H, or I!). Most nutritionists agree that vitamin requirements are best met through a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, rather than by taking vitamin supplements. That's not to say supplements aren't ever helpful; they certainly can be when daily requirements aren't being met through food intake. But the vitamins that occur naturally in food are better because they're more easily absorbed through digestion than supplements are, probably resulting in higher levels of vitamins and antioxidants in our bloodstream and tissues. This book will help you put more of those natural vitamins and antioxidants into your family's diet.
EAT YOUR CRUSTS! There's evidence that the browning pro cess that occurs when you bake bread creates additional antioxidants. So bread crust is healthy in addition to being delicious.
There are a lot of wild nutrition claims out there, and we've steered clear of them in this book-- we do not believe that there is a magic bullet to promote health or cure disease with particular food sources or supplements. But there are some scientifically based statements that will probably stand the test of time:
1. Whole grain flour is better for you than white flour. Because whole grains include the germ and the bran, in addition to the starch- rich but fiber- and vitamin- poor en dosperm (see chapter 2, Ingredients, page 7), whole grain flours bring a boatload of healthy substances into your diet, including phytochemicals (beneficial plant chemi cals), vitamins, and fiber. Those are pretty much absent from white flour. Iron, niacin, folic acid, riboflavin, and thiamine are added back in enriched commercial white flour, but no other nutrients-- so whole wheat delivers more complete nutrition than white flour even when it's been enriched. But there's more-- because bran and germ in whole grains dilute the effect of pure starch in the endosperm, the absorption and conversion of starches into simple sugars is slowed, so blood glucose (the simplest sugar) rises more slowly after consumption of whole grains than it does after eating refined white flour products. Complex, high- bran carbohydrates are said to have a lower "glycemic index," a measure of how fast your blood sugar rises after eating a particular food. The evidence for better handling of blood sugar convinced the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to make two recommendations in their current guidelines:
? Consume a high- fiber diet, with at least 14 grams of dietary fiber per 1,000 calories consumed. For most people, that's going to mean 28 to 40 grams a day (depending on body size at normal weight).
? Make sure that at least half of your grain intake iswhole grain. The recipes in this book will help you meet that goal.
2. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated oils are better for you than saturated fats (like butter and hydrogenated oil). See our ingredients list for a more complete discussion (page 18). Switching to these oils or other heart-healthy fat sources can benefit those with high blood cholesterol.
3. Low- salt breads will benefit people with hypertension, heart failure, and kidney failure. This applies to all our breads-- they all can be made salt-free, though the flavor will of course be different.
4. Nuts and seeds contain heart-healthy oils. Though they're concentrated calorie sources, nuts and seeds are rich in vitamins, minerals, and heart-healthy fats (monoun-saturated and omega- 3 polyunsaturated fats).
5. Fruits and vegetables are the best sources for phytochemicals and vitamins. We have a whole chapter of breads enriched by fruits or vegetables, which are fiber- rich and loaded with vitamins and antioxidants. We'll discuss the unique benefits of the particular fruit or vegetable in sidebars next to the recipes.
And finally, a word of advice: Please don't obsess about food. This is supposed to be fun. If you can put some healthy ingredients into your bread and you like the flavor, do it. Otherwise, eat something else.*
Making Your Own Great Bread Saves You Money
When the economy goes into a tizzy (and even when it doesn't) you have to wonder why anyone is willing to pay $6.00 for a loaf of bread in specialty bakeries. If you buy your bread in a supermarket, you'll still pay $3.00 a loaf. Making your own bread, on the other hand, is very, very economical. Even when whole wheat flour is 70 cents a pound (right at this moment in some of the stores near us), an entire batch of whole wheat bread uses a little more than two pounds of flour, costing about $1.40. It's a few pennies more for yeast and salt, and you get four 1- pound loaves that cost about 40 cents each.
An added benefit: The world's most heavenly source of home heating this winter will be your oven, cranking out the aroma of freshly baked bread.

Four alleged victims of former Omaha Public Schools teacher Shad Knutson can confront him at one trial, a judge has ruled.
Douglas County District Judge Duane Dougherty rejected a defense motion to sever the girls' allegations into at least four different trials. The judge noted that Knutson is alleged to have committed the same pattern of behavior with each girl — all of whom were students at the middle school where Knutson taught.
Dougherty set Knutson's trial for February. He has pleaded not guilty to seven counts: attempted first-degree sexual assault, soliciting a child by use of a communication device, two counts of child abuse and three counts of third-degree sexual assault involving touching.
If convicted, Knutson, 35, faces up to 125 years in prison.
Prosecutors allege that the former Nathan Hale Middle School teacher groomed four female students, ages 13 to 15, in inappropriate relationships. Chief Deputy Douglas County Attorney Brenda Beadle says he begged some of the girls to send him lewd pictures and groped other girls.
And he had a more intense, inappropriate relationship with one of the girls — exchanging more than 10,000 phone calls and text messages in just 10 months, authorities allege.
From January 2010 through November 2010, prosecutors say, Knutson and the girl often "made out" in his classroom after school. He kissed the girl, fondled her breasts and asked her to have sex with him at least five times, prosecutors say.
Knutson's attorney, Douglas County Public Defender Tom Riley, said he would file a motion asking a judge to throw out police searches that led to the seizure of Knutson's cellphone and text messages.
In rejecting Riley's motion to sever the cases, the judge noted several similarities: that Knutson's alleged victims attended the same school; that Knutson held a position of authority over them; and that many of the incidents are alleged to have occurred in Knutson's classroom.
"The defendant said many of the same things to the alleged victims to gain their trust, including statements that they are beautiful and sexy," Dougherty wrote. "(He) allegedly made each of them feel that they were a special student and in addition often provided special treatment."

Another Day, Another Creepy Fetish: Blow-Up Latex Alien Costumes
In the words and little-old-lady inflection of my favorite substitute teacher, Ms. Gitland, "different strokes for different folks, whatever floats your boat." That was the moral of the story she told about how her daughter lives in Bumf***, New Mexico and grows a bunch of weed but doesn't bother anybody so what's the harm. God intermediate Spanish was the shit. Plus when she wasn't looking we moved the clock forward so she'd let us out 15-minutes early. Did I mention at some point she wet her sweatpants? Because you could see it AND smell it. Ol' lady pee. Creepy fetish tie-in? I'm counting it!
Blowup latex alien costumes. They're...creepy. "But GW, you've got no room to talk -- aren't you the one that lusts after dinos?" NO RIGHT NOW I'M LUSTING AFTER YOU SHUTTING YOUR STUPID MOUTH.

Now I know what you're thinking, "ZOMG -- you should start selling "GW Is Judging You" bracelets! And you know what? That might actually be the smartest thing you've ever said.

Beer #3 8/9/13
The kind of pale gold color, not to mention unfiltered cloudiness, that i expect from an at least knowledeably-made hefeweizen greets my eyes. The head is chalky-white and sparse, too big-bubbled to keep itself together especially well. A bit of spotty lacing is left here and there, but not very much.
There's clearly a mix of wheat and pale malts rather than strictly wheat, dry and crackery. hops are grassy. The belgian yeast does come out in the nose, albeit somewhat lightly. Still, all the elements are in place, and it's not too weak.
It's a bit tangy up front, but it's balanced by the sweetness as the Belgian yeast, clove, banana and very light bubble gum notes come out a little more strongly on the tongue. Grassy hops finish out a good balance.
It's somewhat too spritzy and overcarbonated. That certainly makes it crisp, but the feel is certainly not as balanced as the flavor. A light chalky sort of dryness pulls into the end.

Poured from the bottle into a pint glass, Lilja's Heifer Weizen is a hazy, straw color with a thick white, fizzy head. The nose is all yeast like you might expect from a good hefe; banana and clove with a slightly sour lemony-citrus scent. Taste reflects all that was present in the nose with a biscuty, horse (maybe cow) blanket taste. I guess that's what makes it "farmhouse". Mouthfeel is light and slightly drying with a minimal but sudsy carbonation. Overall, not a bad beer, not my favorite Hefe but solid.

A pleasantly murky bubble gum style of Hefeweizen. Pale amber in the tall glass. Light body but lots of malt flavor. Tart and fruity. Has a bitter twang like plum skins, along with flavors of pear. The smell is dusty at first. Dandelions come to mind.
Some citrus aroma eventually, and a pleasant crisp citrus not along with the warm malt. Not the standard Hefeweizen, though it is quite drinkable. On tap at Hop Cat in Grand Rapids. [notes from 09-12-2011 visit]

Sand Creek Brewing : Liljas Heifer Weizen
LOOK: Pours a hazed golden color, white head and a bit of lace.
SMELL: Clove and orange peel, wheat malt and overall very citrusy.
TASTE: Semi tart yeast flavor, with clove , lemon and orange peel flavors. Muted unripe banana. There is very little bitterness and the beer finishes with a clean lemony citrus note. Malty as well so not one dimensional.
FEEL: Light to medium bodied, decent carbonation, a bit chalky.
OVERALL: A decent wheat with strong citrus flavor. Went down easily but not a standout.

A: The beer is slightly hazy light yellow in color and has a moderate to high amount of visible carbonation. A very careful pour resulted in a two finger high bright white head that took a long time to die down.
S: There are light aromas of wheat in the nose along with hints of clove.
T: The taste is similar to the smell but also have initial notes of bananas from the yeast and hints of clove towards the finish.
M: It feels rather light-bodied on the palate and has a high amount of carbonation.

12 oz. bottle tried 26 Nov 2011. Sent to us by R&S, thank you! Served in the St. Arnold's ~14 oz. wheat glass.
Small white head quickly dissipates. Medium carbonation. Slightly hazy pale gold in color. Tart aroma of wheat and green bananas. Starts with some yeastiness, wheat and green bananas. Relatively sweet. Medium body, moderate ethanol. Somewhat banana-ey sweet tart finish and aftertaste.
Decent, would probably be even better on a summer day.

Served in a Chicago Bears shaker pint glass.
Another day, another random Lilja's brew. This one pours a hazy pale straw topped by a finger of short-lived dirty white foam. The nose comprises dusty wheat, orange zest, grass, and light lemon peel. The taste holds notes of orange zest, mild black pepper, wheat, and light coriander. The body is a light medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a very lightly grainy feel. Overall, a pretty nice, if not particularly exciting, hefe. I'd have another...

A- hazy golden with a quickly diminishing white head and no lace. a snot blob of yeast plopped out of the bottle.
S- somewhere between a wit and an APWA, i don't know if i'm smelling coriander or yeast. some clove and banana, pale wheat.
T- sweet and wheaty with a mild tartness. clove, banana, white bread. a little too sweet in the finish.
MF- juicy and lively carbonated with a bready feel. on par with most american hefeweizens out there.
D- so uh, a wisconsin farmhouse belgian style wheat beer? i don't know where the emulation is geared toward, but i guess they are doin their own thang here. didn't work out too well for me. boring.

ABC News is the news gathering and broadcasting division of the American Broadcasting Company, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. Its flagship program is World News with Diane Sawyer; other programs include morning show Good Morning America, Nightline, newsmagazine shows Primetime and 20/20, and Sunday morning political affairs program This Week with George Stephanopoulos.
ABC began news broadcasts early in its independent existence as a radio network after the Federal Communications Commission ordered the former NBC Blue Network to be spun off as an independent company in 1943. This was done to keep single or a few companies such as NBC and CBS from dominating radio broadcasting in the United States, and in particular, from dominating news and political broadcasting and projecting narrow points-of-view. Television broadcasting was suspended however, during World War II.
Regular ABC television news broadcasts began soon after ABC started transmitting from its initial New York City television station (WABC-TV) and production center in late summer 1948. ABC news broadcasts have continued as the ABC television network spread across the country, a process that took many years, from that beginning in 1948 through today, but they have not always had the same level of success that they enjoy now. Throughout the 1950s, the 1960s, and the early 1970s, ABC News consistently ranked third in viewership behind CBS News and NBC News. Until the 1970s, the ABC television network had fewer affiliate stations, and also weaker prime-time programming lineups to support the network's news departments than the two larger networks had, each of which had established their radio news operations during the 1930s.
Under Roone Arledge[edit]
Only after Roone Arledge, the head of ABC Sports at that time, became the president of ABC News in 1977, at a time when the network's prime-time entertainment programs were achieving good ratings and drawing in advertising revenues and profits to the ABC corporation overall, was ABC able to invest the resources to make it a major source of news broadcasting. Arledge, known for experimenting with the broadcast "model", created many of ABC News's most popular and enduring programs, including 20/20, ABC World News Tonight (now ABC World News), This Week, Nightline and Primetime Live.
ABC News gained respect in the early 1980s by covering the Iran hostage crisis and, later, for covering the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in the San Francisco Bay Area with live telecasts.
ABC News' longtime slogan, "More Americans get their news from ABC News than from any other source", was a claim that refers to the number of people who watch, listen, and read ABC News programming on television, the radio, and the Internet, and not necessarily to the telecasts alone.[1]
Association with ESPN[edit]
ESPN, a sports-news organization with several cable and satellite television channels – and also majority owned by ABC parent The Walt Disney Company – provides sports bulletins and video for some of ABC News' programs, especially the network's overnight news programs; America This Morning features a segment of sports highlights provided by the overnight anchors of ESPN's flagship sports news program SportsCenter.
Partnership with Univision and launch of Fusion[edit]
On May 2, 2012, Univision Communications and ABC News entered into a joint venture to launch a digital cable and satellite television network for English speaking Hispanics and Latino Americans. On February 11, 2013, the companies announced the dual network will be called "Fusion".[2][3] The network launched on October 28, 2013.
Other services[edit]
ABC News Radio, a service syndicated by Cumulus Media Networks, broadcasts hourly news updates, live feeds and specialty news, sports and entertainment programming to approximately 2,000 radio affiliates nationwide. As part of Disney's sale of the ABC Radio division to Citadel Broadcasting in 2007, ABC News entered into an exclusive agreement with Citadel to distribute its radio news service on terrestrial stations (Citadel has since merged with Cumulus Media).
ABC NewsOne is ABC News's affiliate news service. It gathers and feeds regional, national and international news material to ABC affiliates around the country and foreign networks.
A 30-second ABC News Brief is broadcast weekdays at 2:58 p.m. ET following General Hospital (though these newsbriefs are not aired on all ABC stations, those that do not carry the newsbriefs typically opt to begin local commercial breaks immediately following the network program preceding it). A news brief containing information relevant to college students is shown every hour on mtvU, and ABC News segments are packaged or customized for broadcast over Wal-Mart's in-store television network.

International broadcasts[edit]
Several programs from ABC News are shown daily on the 24-hour news network Orbit News, a network of three 24-hour satellite and cable channels offering exclusively American news programming from ABC, NBC, PBS, and MSNBC to U.S. expatriots and other viewers abroad, primarily geared towards an audience in the Arab countries. The network is available on digital satellite and cable in Europe, Middle East and North Africa, however, cable operators in Europe are currently unable to carry the channels due to unsolved rights issues. It is also available online at ABC News Now.
In the United Kingdom, ABC World News airs regularly at 1:30 a.m. local time on the BBC News Channel, which itself may be simulcast on BBC One or BBC Two during the overnight period. No commercials are presented because the BBC's services in the U.K. are financed through license fees. ABC and the BBC also share video segments and reporters as needed in producing their newscasts.
In Australia, ABC World News is broadcast at 10:30 a.m. daily and Nightline is telecast at 1:30 a.m. daily on Sky News Australia. This can be confusing[who?] in Australia, where ABC News is the news division of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. Also, Primetime is broadcast at 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays (extended edition) and at 1:30 p.m. on Thursdays. 20/20 is broadcast at 2:00 p.m. on Sundays (extended edition) and on Wednesdays at 1:30 p.m.
In New Zealand, ABC World News was broadcast daily at 5:10 p.m. and at again at 11:35 p.m. Just as with the BBC in the U.K., it was shown commercial-free on Television New Zealand's TVNZ 7 channel, until it was shutdown on the 30th of June 2012 .

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Robert is a quiet and shy 12-year-old. He enjoys playing basketball, playing video games and being outside. His favorite food is pizza. He likes playing with wrestling figures and board games.
Robert is looking for a forever family to call his own. He would like to live out in the country or on a farm. He would like to be around other kids, and he would like to have a pet.
Robert needs a forever family who is understanding of the effects of abuse and neglect on a child. He needs parents who are supportive, nurturing and patient.
Many children in West Virginia are legally eligible to be adopted and are waiting for permanent and loving families. For more information about adoption, contact Mission West Virginia at 866-225-5698 or email ad...@missionwv.org.

Tastes and Tales of Thanksgivings Past
Real china clatters and glasses clink. Even the children hold glassware rather than sippy cups. The table is filled to overflowing with breads and meats and pastas and sauces, vegetables and more. My grandma, hair held back by a babushka, apron on, scurries in and out of the kitchen doorway, bringing extra gravy and filling drinks.
There was something about the way dinners sounded and felt at my grandparents' house that was different than anywhere else. There was this sense of routine and order. We knew there would be dishes full of ripe olives on the table and buttered noodles would sit in a giant serving dish right alongside a bright gelatin mold. We knew which glasses we would use, and so did my grandma as she set them out right where we sat each and every time. The house would smell a certain way and the food always tasted like it should, her signature salad coming first.
On my mom's side of the family things progressed in an opposite manner. There were always too many cooks in the kitchen, bumping into each other and making sure each of the others heard their opinion on the right way to make the gravy. Dinner is placed buffet style on the counter, and the announcement is made that the food is ready. Paper plates hold turkey and stuffing, and with no table large enough for us all, we spread out in the living room with TV trays or even sometimes on the floor, curled up alongside the couch.
Looking back, it's humorous how different the two sides of my family were and still are: one very orderly and organized and the other relaxed and loose. Yet Thanksgiving was something congruent for me. Whether I was at one house or the other, it still meant the same things. There was a familiarity of being with family and coming together to eat.
Many of my memories are marked by the tastes and smells of food. My brain imprints certain smells and flavors into different situations, and I've found myself transported back to a time and place just by interacting with those same flavors. Sometimes I've worked for them, as I try and test my grandma's recipes, searching for the right combination to get to hers, and other times they have come in on their own.
Whether you're staying home and cooking Thanksgiving dinner for your family or traveling somewhere else to have it or even just meeting friends at the theater, take a moment to appreciate what's around you over a plate of turkey or a bag of buttered popcorn. Hold the flavor of the perfect mashed potato in your mouth and taste what it feels like to be there eating them in that moment.

I'm trying an exercise designed by psychologists to help me gain my sanity by gently losing my mind. This process is utterly different from typical attempts to pursue happiness, most of which depend on controlling events and feelings.
Think of a problem that has plagued you for a long time—your weight, a loved one's bad habits, fear of terrorism, whatever. No doubt you've tried valiantly to control this issue, but are your efforts working? The answer has to be no; otherwise you would have solved the problem long ago. What if your real trouble isn't the issue you brood about so compulsively, but the brooding itself? Psychologists who subscribe to acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) call "clean" pain what we feel when something hurtful happens to us. "Dirty" pain is the result of our thoughts about how wrong this is, how it proves we—and life—are bad. The two kinds of suffering occupy different sections of the brain: One part simply registers events, while another creates a continuous stream of thoughts about those events. The vast majority of our unhappiness comes from this secondary response—not from painful reality but from painful thoughts about reality. Western psychology is just accepting something saints and mystics have taught for centuries: that this suffering ends only when we learn to detach from the thinking mind. Get happy! Continue this exercise in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). From the August 2002 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine

Ulcers and holes (perforations) in the nasal septum may occur as a result of nasal surgery; repeated injury such as that resulting from picking the nose; cosmetic piercing; exposure to toxins (such as acids, chromium, phosphorus, and copper vapor); chronic nasal spray use (including corticosteroids and over-the-counter phenylephrine Some Trade Names PROMETH VC PLAIN or oxymetazoline Some Trade Names AFRIN DRISTAN 12-HR NASAL SPRAY OCUCLEAR sprays); oxygen inhaled through the nose; or diseases such as tuberculosis, leprosy, granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly called Wegener granulomatosis), and syphilis. Frequent use of cocaine snorted through the nose causes ulcerations and perforations because it decreases blood flow.
Symptoms may include crusting around the nostrils and repeated nosebleeds. People who have small perforations in the septum may make a whistling sound when they breathe.
For ulcers, bacitracin Some Trade Names BACIIM ointment or mupirocin Some Trade Names BACTROBAN ointment reduces the crusting, as may saline nasal spray. Doctors can sometimes surgically repair perforations using a person's own tissue from another part of the nose or with an artificial membrane made of a soft, pliable plastic. Most perforations do not need to be repaired unless bleeding or crusting is a major problem.

Groton Long Point
Groton Long Point (GLP) is a political subdivision of the town of Groton, on Long Island Sound in New London County, Connecticut, United States. The population was 667 at the 2000 census. Used mostly by families as a summer resort, life in Groton Long Point is very different depending on the season.
The area is administered by the Groton Long Point Association (GLPA), which was established by an act of the Connecticut Legislature in 1921.[1] The act enabled seasonal residents to tax and issue bonds to provide services independent of the town of Groton; typically such municipal corporations provided services that the larger township could not or would not provide.[1] The corporation was not described as borough in the law forming it, but it has the same governmental powers as a borough.[1] Today such a special taxing district can be formed by Connecticut residents on their own without special acts of the Legislature. [1] The area is treated by the U.S. Census Bureau as a borough although it is not formally incorporated as such.
Summer life[edit]
Summer in Groton Long Point runs roughly from mid-June to early-September. The actual living population of the town is dramatically larger during the summer months as nearly every property is either occupied by its owners or rented to summer tenants. The Groton Long Point Yacht Club, a cross between a traditional yacht club and a summer camp, runs many classes for children. These include swimming, sailing, sports and tennis lessons. The Yacht Club also organizes evening events such as dances, movies and scavenger hunts for children; events are also organized for adults and families, including concerts (at nearby Esker Point), dances, and fireworks.
Just as the number of people in GLP increases dramatically during the summer months compared to the winter months, the number of people around during summer weekends increases dramatically compared to summer weekdays.
Winter life[edit]
Being a summer community, Groton Long Point experiences something of an exodus in early September as many of the summer families and the renters exit, leaving only a small number of full-time residents in the fall, winter and spring months. Children remaining often attend nearby Fitch Senior High School, in Groton.
Groton Long Point Volunteer Fire Department[edit]
The Point is Protected by the Groton Long Point Volunteer Fire Department, year round. Established in 1951, its purpose: "the preservation of lives and property, the extinguishment of fires, the provision of emergency medical services and social assembly". The Fire Department host events year around, from the 4th of July parade to a Halloween party.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough has a total area of 0.4 square miles (1.0 km2), of which, 0.4 square miles (1.0 km2) of it is land and 0.04 square miles (0.10 km2) of it (4.44%) is water and is adjacent to Mumford Cove.

I have been using DOCMan for quite some time and I use it to facilitate document management for my church's website. All was ok until I tried to upgrade to 1.6.5 and something went wrong. I lost most of my links and my site didn't work right. I got ahold of DOCMan and their customer service was second to none. They went in and fixed me up and now everything is working great. Great product and great service!!!

Stay Informed Knowledge is power! CanWEA delivers news on the latest developments in the Canadian wind energy industry. Learn more.
Did you know? All it takes to power the turbine is pure movement of air.
WindSight Fall 2013 Conference '13 Highlights
home > media centre
For Immediate Release
December 16, 2009 - (Ottawa) The Canadian Wind Energy Association (CanWEA) is encouraged by the Ontario Power Authoritys (OPA) announcement today regarding the results of the Feed-in Tariff Programs Launch Application period. The OPA stated in a release today that over 8,000 MWs of new renewable energy projects, 79% of which are wind energy projects, have applied for Feed-in Tariff contracts in the province. Many of these projects are shovel-ready and they are poised to deliver jobs and at least $5 billion in investment to Ontario.
The number of applicants for Feed-in Tariff contracts clearly demonstrates that the Ontario Governments Green Energy Act has succeeded in putting Ontario on the radar screen of wind energy investors, said Robert Hornung, CanWEA President. At a time when Ontarios industrial sector has been losing jobs, the interest generated by the OPAs Feed-in Tariff program has put in place the conditions to create thousands of new jobs in Ontario in manufacturing, construction, steel fabrication and services.
Over the last year the Ontario Government, through the OPA, worked to create North Americas most progressive procurement program in the form of a European-style Feed-in Tariff Program (FIT). The FIT has attracted extraordinary interest in Ontario from developers, investors and manufacturers from around the world as it has promised a fair, open, transparent and stable procurement policy for new renewable energy development in Ontario. The FIT also ensures that at least 25% of project costs will be spent in Ontario.
The FITs open procurement mechanism is poised to bring Ontario billions of dollars of new investment in renewable energy projects. Our members have already invested millions in projects in an effort to bring them to a level of maturity that makes them immediately eligible for the FIT Mr. Hornung said. We expect that the Government and the OPA will recognize the investments and commitments that have been made and will award contracts, and associated grid capacity, in line with the policies outlined within the FIT program.
CanWEA is the voice of Canadas wind energy industry, actively promoting the responsible and sustainable growth of wind energy on behalf of its more than 450 members. A national non-profit association, CanWEA serves as Canadas leading source of credible information about wind energy and its social, economic and environmental benefits. To join other global leaders in the wind energy industry, CanWEA believes Canada can and must reach its target of producing 20 per cent or more of the countrys electricity from wind by 2025. The document Wind Vision 2025 Powering Canadas Future is available at www.canwea.ca

This cane has no hidden features. It's a folk art cane with a handle carved in the shape of a pig and a pig's hoof. It sold for $240 at a Cowan's auction in Cincinnati in Juy 2013. (Cowles Syndicate photo / September 6, 2013) |
The first cane probably was just a strong stick, but by the 19th century, a cane was a fashion accessory and sometimes hid a tool. The heads of canes were made of wood, ivory, gold, silver, leather, pewter or porcelain, sometimes with inlay and precious gems. Canes with a carving of a political candidate's head were used until Franklin Roosevelt objected — because he was disabled. At recent antiques sales, there have been some very unusual canes. Some hid weapons. Sword canes are familiar because of movies. But few know there are canes that held parts of a gun, including ammunition — a hidden arsenal. Another was a blow gun that could "shoot" bullets. A woman's cane had a short knife blade to use for protection. A "flicker" cane was made so a short blade could pop out of the handle. Most deadly was the "Diabolique," a cane outlawed in France. If someone tried to pull the cane, a set of spikes popped out of the shaft wounding the attacker's hand. Tap the cane on the ground and the spikes disappeared.
Most canes are less threatening. There is a cane handle covered in carved grapes that unscrews to reveal a corkscrew. Another, a bamboo cane, has a horse-measuring ruler inside. One held supplies for a writer — pens, paper, inkwell, penknife, eraser, pencil, sealing wax, a candle and matches. Another held a woman's accessories, including tweezers, nail picks, buttonhook, crochet needle, bottles and fan. But that is not all. Imagine a cane that held a long, thin working violin and bow. An artist could get a cane that held an easel, palette and paints. Some canes are amusing. A peephole let the owner look at a picture of a bathing beauty, while another held a whiskey bottle. Strangest is a Chinese "spitter" cane with a silver handle shaped like a man's head. Press his pigtail, point and the head spits water at a victim. Any of these canes sell for thousands of dollars today.
Q. I'm looking for information about a W. Goebel figurine of a little boy and girl. It's titled "Rosi & Rolf" and the number on the bottom is 17 603 11.
A. Your figurine was made in 1981 by the W. Goebel Porcelain Factory of Rodental, Germany. Its full name is "Rosi & Rolf, The Hikers." It is sometimes advertised online as a "Hummel figurine" because Goebel also made Hummels, but it's not a Hummel. We have seen Rosi & Rolf offered online for $20 and up.
Q. Going through piles of my stuff, I found my teen collection of 24 silly arcade cards called "Licenses to Do Anything." I remember buying them from coin-operated machines in the late 1930s or early '40s. Each one is postcard size, 3 by 5 inches, and is printed on heavy stock with green lettering and a fancy green border. Mine include a Back Seat Driver's License, a Bachelor's Permit and a Spendthrift Permit. What are they worth?
A. Your cards were issued by the Exhibit Supply Co. of Chicago. The copyright date on the ones we have seen is 1941. A set of 30 mint examples is being offered online for $30. So your smaller set would sell for less than that.
Q. I understand that antique typewriters are popular again. I have a 1935 Remington typewriter that's in good condition. It's 10 by 11 inches and is in a black case. What is my typewriter worth?
A. Arms manufacturer E. Remington & Sons of Ilion, N.Y., made the first successful typewriter for Sholes & Glidden in 1874. It typed capital letters only. Remington made the typewriter in its sewing machine division. It sold its typewriter business and the rights to the Remington name to the Standard Typewriter Manufacturing Co. in 1886. Standard changed its name to Remington Typewriter Co. in 1902 and became Remington Rand in 1927. Remington portable typewriters were introduced in 1920. Typewriter sales fell in the 1990s as more people started using computers. Vintage typewriters have recently become popular with people who like the touch and enjoy seeing words appear on paper as they are typed. Value of your typewriter: about $145.
Q. I'm moving to independent care and must sell or give away my collector plates. I have an Edna Hibel Mother's Day plate called "Erica and Jamie" made in 1985. Is it worth anything? Are people collecting Edna Hibel plates?
A. Edna Hibel (b. 1917) is an artist known for her paintings of mothers and children. A series of Edna Hibel Mother's Day plates was made by Edwin M. Knowles China Co. from 1984 to 1991. Collector plates have gone down in value during the past 10 years, and your plate currently sells for under $15.
Q. Back in the 1960s, I bought my daughter a large plush Cat in the Hat stuffed toy. She doesn't want it, but I hear it's "collectible." What do you think?
A. Dr. Seuss' "The Cat in the Hat" storybook was published in 1957, and plush Cat in the Hat toys soon followed — and are still being made. Early versions in "like new" condition might sell for more than newer toys. But don't expect to get more than about $20 for it.

Graves' Disease (cont.)In this Article
How is Graves' disease managed during pregnancy?
Comment on this
During pregnancy, you will need to see both your OB/GYN and an endocrinologist (en-doh-krih-NOL-uh-jist), a doctor who treats people with hormone problems. If you have had radioactive iodine (RAI) or surgery to treat Graves' disease in the past and become pregnant, tell your doctor. Your baby will need to be watched for thyroid-related problems that can occur later in the pregnancy. It is best to plan pregnancy so that Graves' disease is treated prior to conception. Pregnancy may cause changes in hormones that affect the thyroid, and thyroid problems can affect a growing baby. For some women with Graves' disease, symptoms worsen in the first trimester, and then improve for the rest of the pregnancy. Symptoms often worsen again after delivery. For these reasons, the treatment needs of pregnant women with Graves' disease often change, and an experienced doctor is needed to manage your treatment during and after pregnancy. Your doctor will check your thyroid hormone levels regularly. If antithyroid medicine is needed, PTU is usually prescribed in the first trimester, and MMI for the rest of the pregnancy. Thyroid surgery is rarely an option for pregnant women. And pregnant women cannot take RAI. Beta-blockers are sometimes prescribed for short-term use during the first few weeks of pregnancy to relieve symptoms. Can I breastfeed if I am taking antithyroid medicine for Graves' disease?Many women who take antithyroid medicine choose to breastfeed. Only low amounts of these drugs cross into breast milk. Your doctor can help you weigh the benefits of breastfeeding with the possible risk of these drugs. This will help you decide what is best for you and your baby.

Angus Stone, the male half of Angus and Julia Stone, recently released his sophomore solo album, Broken Brights. Stone's music career first started picking up when he worked with his sister as Angus and Julia Stone. The Australian duo released two albums together, A Book Like This (2007) and Down the Way (2010). Both albums went multi-platinum in Australia, and Down the Way went platinum in France. The sibling act have since pleasantly gone their separate ways. Angus released his first album, Smoking Gun, in 2009 under the name Lady of the Sunshine.
His new album, Broken Brights, is a heavily folk album with moments of harder rock thrown in here and there. Stone sings through most of the album in a hushed and raspy voice. He produced the album himself, recording basically anywhere and anytime he could, including a broken down warehouse in Switzerland. Stone made the decision to first record it on tape.
The album kicks off with "River Love," a song questioning love and reasons behind it. While the lyrics are slightly subdued, the instrumentation sounds more hopeful in its bright tones of guitar, mandolin, and violin, which slowly culminate into an energetic, instrumental break before Stone repeats the first verse once more to finish out the song.
The title track and first single from the album, "Broken Brights," is a slow and thoughtful track with a great moment of heavily reverberated guitar to break up the song. A video was made for the title track, recoded on film, as the album was recorded on tape. The video features hazy shots of forest roads and fields of grass, while following a man and a woman either running or as silhouettes.
One of Stone's best moments comes on the song "Bird and the Buffalo." Stone's voice in this song sounds strikingly similar to Jeff Tweedy's of Wilco. The first couple times I heard this song, I actually thought it was a Wilco song. Don't take anything away from Angus Stone for this though; if you sound like Wilco, you must be doing something right. This is also the hardest song on the album, with raging guitars taking over when Stone isn't singing in a Crazy Horse type way.
"Wooden Chair" is another that has a strong edge over most other the other songs on the album. The song features deliberate drums and clapping which control the song. There's also a whistling section in the song, which just as Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zero's "Home" and Peter Bjorn & John's "Young Folks" prove, is catchy as all hell. The video was also recoded on film.
Stone focuses a lot on storytelling throughout Broken Brights. Songs "The Wolf and the Butler," "Monsters," and "Apprentice of a Rocket Man" all feature some sort of story. "Apprentice of a Rocket Man" is an interesting song, sounding like futuristic, outer space, folk music with its spacious mixing and technological sound effects, and shaky, reverbed guitar.
All songs shape together to form a solid sophomore album from Angus Stone, someone who should have a much bigger prominence in America. Stone currently has shows set up only in Australia, but plans to tour much more extensively in support of the album.

University of British Columbia student wins prize for simulation competition
Process designed using simulation platform would convert plastic waste into liquid fuels. Video: Meet Bryan Gene, Design Challenge winner for 2012.
At its user meeting earlier this month, Honeywell Process Solutions recognized a University of British Columbia engineering graduate who used advanced software to enhance a new process for plastic waste disposal. Bryan Gene was named the winner of the 2012 UniSim Design Challenge, an annual university student competition held in conjunction with the Honeywell Users Group (HUG) Americas Symposium.
UniSim is Honeywell's software used by industrial manufacturers to design and test manufacturing processes before they are implemented in refineries, chemical plants, power plants, and other industrial facilities. It also is used to improve production and safety by training personnel offline to operate these processes.
Gene, who received his chemical engineering degree last month from the university, used UniSim to model a pyrolysis process that can be used to convert plastic waste that ordinarily would be sent to landfills into a synthetic crude oil. This process, however, is still emerging and manufacturers face challenges in making it more economical. Using the software's existing database, Gene characterized non-conventional plastics and produced preliminary models for all major units of the pyrolysis process. Gene had an opportunity to present his winning design to over 1,000 industry experts and manufacturing companies at HUG.
"Many people view our customers' industries as traditional areas that employ the same processes for decades, but the truth is that they're constantly looking for innovative ways to perform their daily jobs more effectively," said Bradd Schneider, vice president of sales, Honeywell Process Solutions. "Bryan Gene's proposal embodies the type of innovation our customers want and need. Production demands will only continue to rise, so finding ways to continuously improve plant safety, reliability and efficiency will continue to be a top priority."
The UniSim Design Challenge is one of several Honeywell Process Solutions initiatives designed to encourage engineering studies. In addition to the Americas, Honeywell Process Solutions also holds annual student competitions in conjunction with annual HUG conferences in the EMEA and Pacific regions.
"By submitting designs in the competition, students had the opportunity to work with actual tools used on a day-to-day basis in manufacturing facilities," said Dr. Dusko Posarac, chemical and biological engineering professor at the University of British Columbia. "The design challenge gave our students a hands-on experience to apply the knowledge they've gained in the classroom to address real-world issues facing manufacturing companies today."
In the description of his process, Gene goes into greater detail:
"The process of pyrolysis is simply a thermal decomposition of the long polymer chains into shorter hydrocarbons within the petroleum grade range. This process takes place in an inert atmosphere to avoid unwanted combustion reactions. Pyrolysis does not only prevent plastics from reaching landfills and incinerators, but produces a high value synthetic crude oil that can be sold to refineries at price parity with traditional crude oil.
"Pseudocomponents created from TBP data, bulk properties, and light end analysis can be effectively used to represent synthetic crude produced from the pyrolysis reaction. A high molecular weight, dense mock oil can be used to represent the melted plastic feed stock to the pyrolysis reactor. The properties of this oil can be validated by modeling the pyrolysis reactor as a "black box" model. By restricting the inlet and outlet streams to a mass balance in the balance block, the difference in each stream's heat flow represents the amount of energy required to convert the mock oil into the synthetic crude oil. Modifying the mock oil bulk properties to ensure the simulated heat flow across the balance block matches a known reaction energy (from literature, experimental, or other model based values), one can verify that an adequate approximation of the plastic feed was made. From there, the synthetic crude can be passed through an atmospheric distillation column to separate various cuts. The light gases expelled from the distillation column can then be used as a fuel source to a fired heater combustion system which can calculate the amount of heat that can be generated to power the pyrolysis reaction and other auxiliary operations.
"An advanced model can be developed by measuring different product properties and their respective energy requirements with varying feed stock compositions. This will allow for a predictive model which can anticipate downstream consequences based on upstream disturbances in feed composition."

Our Safety Program is designed to provide a safe environment for all skiers and riders in the park. Our goal is to increase safety by limiting access to the terrain park to those who have the skill and knowledge necessary to safely navigate the park and its features. You need a Park pass to enter the park. Get your pass each season by completing the Safety Program listed below either ONLINE or IN-PERSON.
OPTION 1 (Recommended): BEFORE YOU ARRIVE! Complete the Program at Home ONLINE. This will allow for more time on the slopes and in the park.
BUY YOUR PARK PASS ONLINE! Buy Now!
