© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY — Allen Fender starts to tell the story, and then a smile begins to stretch across his face.
He beams as he recounts it, still shaking his head at the improbable ending.
Fender's baseball career is back, and the story of its resurrection is one the Albany State sophomore and former Worth County star loves to tell.
"When I tell people the story, they look at me like, 'Really?' " Fender said. "I was playing softball on a Sunday, and that's how I got back in college baseball."
After getting released from Darton because of poor grades and then spending two years away from baseball, Fender, The Herald's 2010 Player of the Year while at Worth County, was spotted by ASU baseball coach Kenyan Conner at a fundraising softball tournament last summer.
"When coach Conner's team played mine, he came out in the outfield and told me to throw him the ball," Fender remembers. "I threw him the ball, and then he came up to me after the game and told me he wanted me to come to Albany State. I told him 'Yeah, I'm ready for it.' "
It's an unlikely story, but it's one that put the left-handed pitcher on the mound for an Albany State team that is loaded with former Southwest Georgia prep stars. Fender, a native of Sylvester, is joined by pitcher Drew Bacon (Leesburg, Lee County/Randolph Southern), outfielder Jacob Campbell (Albany, Westover), outfielder Josh Brunswick (Dawson, Terrell Academy) and first baseman Michael Byron (Cordele, Crisp County).
"I guess I did make an effort to go out and get local kids," Conner said. "I think the kids in this area are gritty kids who will play hard for you. They are low-maintenance guys and country boys who don't cry a lot. They just want to play and go to school, and it's been a nice fit because all of them are great kids."
They've been pretty good on the field, too.
Campbell is eighth in the nation with a .464 batting average and also leads the team in on-base percentage (.546), slugging percentage (.640) and doubles (11) and is second with 38 RBIs. Fender, the team's Sunday starter, has a 6-2 record and a 3.60 ERA with 43 strikeouts. Bacon is 6-3 with a 5.62 ERA, a 2.1:1 strike-ball ratio and 41 strikeouts. Brunswick and Byron aren't starters, but in spot plate appearances they have combined for six hits and five RBIs in 33 at-bats.
Campbell has been at ASU since 2011 and Byron was on the roster last season, but Fender, Bacon and Brunswick are all first-year Rams.
ASU, which is 26-15 overall and a perfect 17-0 in the SIAC, is in the middle of one of its best seasons in years — and the Southwest Georgia products are a big reason why.
Campbell is a four-year starter for the Rams, but Fender and Bacon took long, winding roads to ASU.
As a high school senior, Fender led Worth County to its second Region 1-AAAA championship since 1959 and signed early with Darton College, where he broke his throwing hand his freshman season and then failed to qualify academically in the fall of his sophomore season.
"It was on me. It was my fault," he said. "I got into college and didn't take it seriously, and it backfired on me."
The lefty with a wicked curve ball and a fastball that reaches 87 mph stepped away from baseball after leaving Darton and took a job at Coopercraft Communications in Tifton.
Every now and then, he played recreational softball on the weekends — which is where he was last summer when Conner just happened to be playing in the same tournament. Campbell was there as well, and he and his coach spent the day selling their team to Fender.
Before the day was over, Conner offered Fender a spot on the roster. He accepted without hesitation.
In the months since Fender's return to baseball, he has gotten stronger with every game he's thrown. He began the year with an ERA approaching 10 and lost his first three starts, but he has rebounded with six straight wins and his ERA is dropping about as sharply as the tail end of his curve.
"I am grateful that coach Conner was there at that softball game," Fender said. "I have a lot of respect for the man, because not very many people get picked up playing softball on Sunday."
Bacon's journey started in Leesburg, where he played under legendary coach Rob Williams for two seasons before sitting out a year and transferring to Randolph Southern for his senior season in 2010. He also signed with Darton and pitched for the Cavs his freshman season, but wasn't brought back a second year and opted not to play baseball the last two years.
However, Bacon never left Conner's radar.
"Coach stayed on me, and I couldn't really say no to him after two or three times of him asking me to (come back to baseball)," Bacon said. "I can't believe they stuck by me that long and that coach kept trying to get me even though I got into some trouble."
Bacon's legal troubles peaked in July 2012 when he was arrested for various charges after leading police on a high-speed chase — which reached speeds of 136 mph — in a brand new Chevy Camaro that he had won from a contest at the clothing chain Men's Warehouse.
He spent 30 days in jail, time that he said gave him the opportunity to rethink many of his decisions.
"It made me realize that there are a lot more important things in life than the immediate satisfaction of having a good time and partying," Bacon said. "Life is a long road, and every time you screw up it puts you behind a lot. It makes it that much tougher to get back on track."
Bacon's life looks a lot different now than it did from inside a jail cell two summers ago, and the right-hander has turned into a cornerstone of the ASU pitching staff. Of the 827 pitches he has thrown this season, 560 have been strikes, which pitching coach Jay Flynt said is the key to his success.
He throws a fastball 81-83 mph and then surprises hitters with a knuckle-curve that he's had in his arsenal for years.
Bacon and Fender have combined for nearly half of ASU's victories and will both take the mound this weekend when the Rams host Paine College and try to finish their SIAC regular season undefeated with their seventh straight conference sweep.
"We wouldn't be where we are without those two, without a doubt," Campbell said. "They have been huge. Pitching has been the best it's been here in four years, and those two guys have been the anchor of it."
Campbell has been the anchor of the batting order and has MLB scouts eyeing him for June's draft. He played in the California Collegiate League last summer in Southern California, where he developed as a prospect and put himself on display for professional scouts. Now Campbell is ranked in the Top 10 in all of Division II in both batting average and on-base percentage and is also in the Top 50 in total bases, hits, RBIs and slugging percentage.
In Campbell's four years on ASU's roster, the Rams are without a conference championship — and the former Westover star said he is focusing on getting an SIAC title ring first and worrying about a professional contract later.
"When we take care of the (SIAC championship) ring and get to regionals, then I can start worrying about getting a contract," he said midway through the season. "But my main goal right now is winning and doing what it takes to get there."

Alaska Republik
When Lieutenant Gerald Yamato of the Republic of California Air Force bailed out of his doomed fighter he had no idea he would land in a culture that would forever change his life. The Dené thought they had won their independence and the war was over. Suddenly they face an advancing Russian army from one direction, a merciless band of mercenaries from another, as well as the remnants of a defeated, angry, Russian army between the Dené and the rest of their people. Despite assurances by distant, bland diplomats to the contrary, the new Dené Republik has a whole new war on their hands. But they are not alone. The Tlingit Nation shares their struggle, and the USA and the Republic of California vow all the aid they can muster.

Historical Traveler Reviews Bonvecchiati Hotel Venice
Quite Pleased
My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Bonvecchiati in May of 2004 and were given a fantastic room -- clean, classically appointed and boasting a splendid a view of the canal. The hotel is conveniently located near St. Marks Square and a live pianist plays on the terrace nightly.
We more than enjoyed our dinner on the terrace. The service was incredible. Our meals were prepared and plated tableside with a flurry of staff that tended to every last detail and catered to our every whim (including swishing our red wine in the glass after it was poured). I'm sure if they had fewer guests that night we would have been spoon-fed.
Our meal also started with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine and ended with a complimentary sweet wine that was paired with an assortment of delicious little cookies.
I'm really uncertain why there are less than glowing reviews of this hotel. It was one of my favorites during our two-week journey through Italy.
Misled by the 4* rating
I booked this hotel as it had recently been upgraded following refurbishment. The public rooms were ok but our room was tiny with very basic furnishings and a small bathroom in deperate need of an update. When I questioned this with front desk they informed me this was a "standard room". It seems you only get 4* if you pay extra. Never again!
Honesty's a better policy
We just returned from five nights at the Bonvecchiati and, while the room was tiny but clean and the bathroom in good order, we encountered some serious problems when we arrived. We had telephoned ahead to request that our room would be on a higher floor with a view of the canal, and were promised that the designation of "superior double" already assured this was the case -- but when we arrived, we were shown to a tiny room on the first floor with a window on an air shaft which was full of construction debris. We refused the room, explained what we had been promised, and were told that "the hotel is very full." They made arrangements to move us to a second floor room in the front, so we did end up with something of a canal view -- but this was not what we had been promised in our communication with the hotel. The photographs of the rooms which are displayed in the hotel's brochures misrepresent most of the available rooms in this hotel. Central location, yes -- but you'll play catch-as-catch-can with your room assignment here, no matter what they tell you on the phone. I'd look elsewhere.
Loved It
Lovely hotel, very pretty, very clean, friendly, comfortable and in a great location. We had a lovely view and enjoyed people watching from our room when the heat got a bit too strong. Space in Venice is limited so the room was small but had everything you needed, the bathroom was fantastic, and there aren't many hotels abroad that actually have double beds in double rooms anymore, its just something to be expected when travelling.
My parents also stayed here the previous year and loved it too. As a well experienced traveller, especially of Italy I would definitely recommend this hotel to others, nothing to complain about. We ate the breakfast and also had an evening meal in the restaurant, good food and good service. what more can I say?!
Great breakfast buffet
My girlfriend and I stayed here in early January for two nights while visiting Venice. We booked the hotel through an internet service and got a great price. We were very impressed with the buffet breakfast (included in the price). It's great to be able to get up and eat a nice breakfast before heading out into the chill of winter that was Venice at that time. The room was great, with wardrobe, television, heating and the bathroom was small but very good. Although at times there was no hot water at all. Otherwise, a very clean and well managed hotel.
Thumbs up!
Bad value, bad food
The Bonvechiati is in a lovely postion in Venice, but it's very poor value.
I asked for a tray of tea at 2.30pm one day, only to be told that the kitchens were closed. I ate some of the worst Italian food of my life on the terrace, and I had to ask several times to have my sheets changed.
Terrible, I felt so ripped off.
Recommend the Bonvecchiati
7 December 2003. This hotel has a great location on a canal near St Marks Square. We had a spacious double room overlooking the canal - very comfortable with a sparklingly clean, modern bathroom. Breakfast good and plentiful. Friendly staff. Will definitely return here.
Hotel Bonvecchiati - A good hotel with some flaws
We stayed in an impeccably clean room, with nice decor (modern furnishings). Our room (458) had a nice view of the canal below and of the tower from San Marco Square. The bathroom is a treat, very large, and the shower is equipped with a very large shower head (about the size of a volleyball), so you get soaked in no time. I believe the room is located in a part of the hotel that has been recently refurbished, as all around the smell of new construction pervades and the decor looks much more modern than what is on the website.
Breakfast was pretty average, though, we are not known for waking up early and caught the end of it at about 9:55, so it is possible the early risers were treated with better fare.
One minor annoyance. We booked a deluxe double, so we were very surprised to see the bed set-up with two twin beds with separate sheets (albeit, pushed together). I spoke to the hotel front desk soon after arrival to see if we could be moved to a room that has a double bed that was not made up of two twins and we were told that they had nothing available that night but would offer us a different room for the next. The next day, the story had changed, as a different person on the front desk said that all of the double beds in the hotel were made up of two twins and that they would be happy to change the sheets in our room with one set of sheets. Now, if this is true, that all the double beds in the hotel and made up of two twins, I find this very strange. Or, the second person was lying...which reflects badly on the hotel if this was the case.
Overall my stay at the Hotel Bonvecchiati was a pleasant one, and I would recommend it to others. It is pricey, so I wouldn't consider it a great value (even for Venice), but if cleanliness and a good shower are important to you and it is in your price range, then you will most likely be happy here. (Particularly for the location!)
I had exactly the same experience with this hotel as your leicester reviewer and I was there over xmas !! the info on the back of the bedroom door said that the tourist board gave it 4 stars but I would only give it 2 - I am writing to the tourist board accordingly - I was so disappointed I left early
Bonvecchiati disappointment
Fair enough only 3 star+ but this hotel was all show-minimal facilities. I dont like to be deceived and in the info I read in magazines and on the internet it stated that this hotel had a BAR and also 24 HOUR ROOM SERVICE. It had infact neither. When I asked at reception I was told that they start in 2003. I was deceived. I wouldnt have chosen a hotel without a bar for goodness sake. I wasnt even able to get a cup of tea because there was no facilities even to be brought up to my room. It was quite a dry time at the Bonvecchiati.
I dont want much, the decor doesnt have to be anything special just a clean, friendly hotel with obliging staff. I didnt get any!!!

We left the Best Western Slon (elephant in Croatian) Premier hotel at 7:45 AM for Venice. The sun was shinning and it was around 60F. Our last day is here before we fly home.

A surprise around every corner!

We passed some very enticing shops, the murano glass really caught Liam's eye, need I say it was the shoes and handbags the took my interest, some that would max out the credit card! Once again I couldn't stop taking photos of the gondolas and the masters that steer them through the canals, at €80.00 a ride we didn't treat ourselves.

Along with Pearl Jam, Nirvana were the most successful act of the early 1990's grunge movement. Catapulted into the spotlight after hit single "Smells Like Teen Spirit", the band are credited with bringing Alt-Rock to mainstream attention.
Their second, and perhaps most famous album "Nevermind" has sold over 30 million copies worldwide.
The band's career was cut suddenly short in 1994 when iconic frontman Kurt Cobain committed suicide. Drummer Dave Grohl has since gone on to become a hugely successful frontman in his own right with his band Foo Fighters. Nirvana themselves have gone on to enjoy a musical afterlife in the hearts and ears of successive generations of fans comparable to that of the Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Michael Jackson.

Drooping Brug Stems
I started growing my Brug's from seeds about 10 months ago and they are doing well now- about 1 to 1&1/2 feet high. They have lots of foliage but the stems seem to be drooping. I'm not sure if this is normal for Brug's (I hear they can have vine-like tendencies) or if I need to support the stems with something. They are currently in pots 12 inches wide, watered once weekly (no wilting leaves), fertilized once weekly (10-10-10) and kept inside facing westward (the only windows I have are westward facing). What should I do to help them? Any suggestions? When will they start to flower?
Hey and Welcome.. Brugs don't have any vine like tendencies.. Sounds like they are either over watered or under watered.. Stick your finger in the pot and see if the soil is wet or dry.. If it is wet let it dry out if it is dry water it.. ;0)
I look forward to seeing you around..
Kylie's right, they aren't vine like at all. The stems shouldn't be drooping. If it's not a watering issue, rot or some type of disease it could be that it's not getting enough light or the right kind of light. If there's insufficient light the stems can grow thin and lanky and become less rigid.

Grousbeck on Buss: 'Brilliant competitor'
February, 18, 2013
By Chris Forsberg | ESPNBoston.com
Celtics CEO Wyc Grousbeck released the following statement on the passing of Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss:
"I had the pleasure of working with Jerry closely for the last 10 years on league matters. He was a wonderful business colleague, brilliant competitor and became a good friend. Although our teams competed in two Finals during that time, the friendship never wavered. He will be greatly missed and the entire Celtics organization offers condolences to the Buss family and Lakers organization."
Grousbeck also appeared on ESPN Radio Monday afternoon and spoke highly of Buss and the strong relationship between rival owners. Hop HERE to listen to the podcast. For more on the passing of Buss, hop HERE.
Grousbeck did field one question on the Celtics and the approaching deadline during his radio appearance, suggesting he'd be content if this team didn't make any moves, even as rumors fly about whether Boston would trade veterans while looking to the future.
"I'm very, very proud of this team and glad to be involved this team as it currently stands," said Grousbeck. "I really like the way they play. We've got a general manager [Danny Ainge] whose job it is to think short term and long term. His phone rings all the time, it's people calling him. Then he talks to me and my partners about what he might want to do. But there's nothing to report at the moment, and I'd be delighted to have the team stay this way just as it is, because I like watching them play. I wish we hadn't lost [Rajon] Rondo and [Jared] Sullinger and [Leandro] Barbosa, but we did. So that's where we stand. And it's going to be a busy week, but it may well be that nothing happens."

Sound Devices Offers Enhanced Recording and File Transfer Options for PIX 260i Users
Latest Firmware Update, Version 1.02, Now Available for Free Download
LOS ANGELES, MAY 15, 2013 â In an effort to continue to streamline workflows for production and post-production environments with its rack-mounted PIX 260i Production Video Recorder, Sound Devices, experts in portable audio and video products for field production, now offers expanded audio and video recording and file transfer capabilities with its newest firmware update, Version 1.02. Available as a free download to all PIX 260i users, this latest version will be highlighted at Cine Gear 2013 (Booth 94).
With Version 1.02, all drives are now formatted as exFAT instead of UDF. While this new drive formatting is available, it is still possible for PIX 260i users to record and play back from UDF drives for compatibility with the PIX 220i and PIX 240i. Users have the ability to set each PIX 260i drive independently to Ethernet File Transfer (Network) mode. This offers the convenience of transferring files over a network while the PIX 260i records new data. Drives will also automatically switch to the Ethernet File Transfer mode when full. In addition, the end user can now read and write data to PIX 260i drives over Ethernet. The update also enables the PIX 260i to provide users with both simultaneous recording to multiple drives or sequential mode, recording to the next successive drive as drives become full. A 10-second (maximum) pre-record buffer for the audio-only mode has also been added.
âThe PIX 260i offers an innovative new approach to file-based audio and video recording,â says Paul Isaacs, Technical Development Manager for Sound Devices. âEvery new version of PIX 260i firmware, including version 1.02, is the result of feedback from customers who have incorporated it into their everyday workflows.â
Based on Sound Devicesâ PIX 240i portable audio/video recorder, PIX 260i is a rack-mounted, file-based audio/video recorder that seamlessly replaces tape-based video decks in production and post-production environments. PIX 260i offers 32 tracks of audio record and playback as well as control functionality from browser-capable computers and tablets. PIX 260i offers the features and tools that production companies and broadcasters require to migrate to file-based recording and playback capabilities. It records QuickTime files in either Apple ProRes or Avid DNxHD video formats. Files recorded in these intra-frame codecs are ready for editing directly from the recorder in common editing environments, such as Avid, Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premiere, eliminating time-consuming transferring and transcoding. For color-critical applications, the PIX 260i supports Apple ProRes 4444 through its 12-bit, 4:4:4 3G-SDI I/O. Users can also play out files from the PIX 260i for real-time applications.
PIX 260i users can download Version 1.02 by visiting www.sounddevices.com/download/pix260i-firmware/.
Sound Devices, LLC designs and manufactures portable audio mixers, digital audio recorders, and digital video recorders and related equipment for feature film, episodic television, documentary, news-gathering, and acoustical test and measurement applications. The fourteen-year old company designs and manufactures from their Reedsburg, Wisconsin headquarters with additional offices in Madison, WI and Highland Park, IL.

For Parents
We're ready for another great Cookie Sale season. Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland's 2015 Cookie Sale is Jan. 31 through March 8.
Our council appreciates all of your support for the girls and your efforts to help them earn funds to support their future Girl Scout adventures!

2015 Cookie Recognitions flier
During Cookie Sale, the Direct Sale: Cookies NOW! format allows girls to have cookie packages in-hand to sell door-to-door to family, friends and neighbors. Girls will exchange cookies and payment in one simple step. No more taking orders, waiting for weeks, and then returning to deliver and collect money. Through this format, girls have increased their sales on average by 28 percent!
How many cookies will girls receive?
Work with your Troop Leader to determine how many packages of each variety to pick-up initially. Consider how many you sold last year, (average was 216 per girl), your goal, and how many packages you want to be responsible for at a time. Note: Cookies may not be returned to the troop or the council.
Remember, you can pick up additional cookies from your Troop Leader as you sell more. You will be expected to pay for at least 50 percent of the cookies you previously received before picking up more. Troops can pick up more cookies at the Cookie Cupboards.
Girls still use order cards to take a customer's order when she doesn't have the variety of cookies on-hand the customer wants; take orders at their parents' workplaces; and track sales and use the information to contact customers for reorders.
Please help your Girl Scout to:
- Introduce herself as a Girl Scout.
- Share her cookie sales goal with her customers.
- Name the varieties of cookies available.
- State that cookies sell for $4.00 per package.
- Be friendly and thank customers whether they buy cookies or not.
- Go door-to-door to sell to family, friends and neighbors.
- Use online tools, like email and text messaging to promote her sale.
SAFETY TIPS girls should know:
- Always sell with an adult or buddy; it's not just safe, it's more fun!
- Use only your first name and never share your phone number or address.
- Never enter anyone's home when selling cookies.
- Do not carry large sums of money. Frequently transfer money to an adult and keep money in a safe place.
- Be careful crossing streets and watch for cars in driveways.

This coming weekend we stop—the whole nation stops its work on Monday—to remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who called us to connect our faith with our actions, and to remember that even systems of democracy can leave some people out, and hurt others.
My favorite MLK quote is, "The arc of the universe is long, but it bends toward justice." I hope that's true. Everything we do around the church depends on that statement's truth, and on trust in God's promise that "all shall be well". But the persistence of old wars and senseless violence, like we saw in last week's news from France, makes me wonder whether we are infusing enough love into the world to counteract the hatred. And the last year of news in this country, about the ways young black men are often treated by the police, has been proof that changing human hearts and minds is a long, complicated process. In fact, the arc will not bend without our tugging on it.
A couple of months ago, I had an experience that I still haven't stopped thinking about. I was walking through the parsonage's condominium complex on a Saturday afternoon, and noticed an African-American teen-age boy riding a bicycle. He didn't look particularly dangerous to me; he was dressed like most teenagers, and he had long dreadlocks and was wearing a cap.
When I got out of the complex and out onto the street, I saw that a policeman had stopped this young man and was talking to him on the sidewalk. I crossed the street and stood for a few moments, to watch what was happening. I couldn't hear their conversation, but I wondered what would have made a policeman in a car pull over and stop this kid on a bike.
Eventually I walked away. I generally trust the police to be doing their job of protecting the community with integrity and good intentions. I had no idea whether this police officer had good reason to make this stop. But I wondered: would he have pulled this kid over just for looking like he didn't belong?
I thought about going over and standing closer, so that I could hear what their conversation sounded like, but I wasn't sure whether my watchful presence would defuse the situation or just antagonize the officer. And so I did what I think many of us who are comfortable and secure and confident that the system treats us fairly would do…nothing. I kept walking. And now I keep wondering whether I should have done something more.
A professor of Business Ethics at Harvard Business School went to work several years ago to find out why, despite all the ethics courses that are required in MBA programs, unethical conduct continues to be part of corporate life. What she realized in her study was that most of the time, it's not ethical dilemmas with complicated, unclear answers that we need help with; it's actually doing the right thing. We're not unsure of what we should do; we're afraid to do it, because we don't know how people will react to us. Will they be angry? Will they somehow make us doubt the rightness of our own actions? (Mary Gentile, Giving Voice to Values)
Being a passive consumer of religion's comfort is pretty easy. But what God needs from us, if we are going to be part of the work of bringing love and justice on earth, is harder. It requires courage. And it requires community, our coming together to en-courage one another to stretch, and to do the things that are hard.
That's what church is.
Love and blessings, Kathi

Finding Atlantis
A True Story of Genius, Madness and An Extraordinary Quest for A Lost World
From the critics

CommentAdd a Comment
This is a great book about a great man and many of his quests, about which Atlantis takes the forefront. It delivers a great depiction of Olof Rudbeck and the many projects he stands behind, of which Atlantis, would be his ultimate work. I am left with a desire to visit Sweden. The only thing I would have liked to see in this book, would be a map of Rudbeck's Sweden.

In the 2007 case U.S. v. Hicks, the FBI questioned suspect Brian Hicks about whether there was any child pornography on his computer.
He said there was -- but after learning federal agents wanted to interview him, he decided to take no chances. He destroyed his hard drive with a hammer and a magnet, then threw it out the window on his way to meet with the cops.
What did they charge him with? Violating the Sarbanes-Oxley Act by tampering with evidence in a federal investigation. It's an oddball use of a law intended to regulate corporate accounting practices.

Looks like Pat was right
We are interested in Organic gardening primarily to maintain he health of the planet, and secondarily our ow health. Pnbrown posted some time ago how despicable modern wheat is, and the proof is in the paper above, published 2 weeks ago. (Brief summary: subjects with some irritable bowel syndrome were fed identical diets, one with regular wheat for bread and pasta, the other with heirloom wheat. Heirloom subjects had better guts, better defecation, and lower blood inflammatory markers).
Note that a diseased gut is at the base of all inflammation and thought to be a major factor in all diseases of civilization. This is interesting because alternative theories posited that modern mills produce hyperfine flour, and that bigger flour grains in the past were carrying protective granules of resistant starch to the lower gut. It seems that hyperfine flour is, at most, a minor problem.
I am a believer in heirloom and old school nutrition.
Raw grain, being complex carbs, are difficult to digest and absorb the nutrients we need. If you sprout that same grain, it turns those stored nutrients into readily available nutrients. That's why I try to stick away from grains in general, not getting into all the processing and crap that goes into grain products, most people probably are not buying raw grain like kashi or something, most are buying grains in the form of junkfood,breads, pastas, flours,etc. I believe we eat far too much grain...
I developed a sensitivity to wheat, or wheat gluten, back around year 2000. Never had a problem with it before then, and I know of no one in my family who had issues like that during my youth. Today I am gluten free, and that makes the allergy symptoms go away, but it takes considerable effort, and some extra expense.
It seems to me that round 1960 we gave up thousands of years of careful grain variety optimization, and the whole world went with the new hybrids. It was not all bad, before wheat was a much taller plant, and therefore prone to laying down in windy or wet conditions, complicating harvest. The new hybrids also produce more grain per unit of water and fertilizer. But the selection of strains easier on the human system was lost.
I tend to be wheat free too, but there will be exceptions, mostly in social situations. I don't see the extra expense since we cook everything from scratch anyway, and a large pot of rice is not particularly more expensive (and certainly less work) than a loaf of bread.
Glib, I think it was that study that I heard about earlier.
Coincidentally we went off wheat entirely a few weeks ago, as part of a detoxification strategy (turns out we are both infected with tick-borne diseases, hardly surprising given where we have lived for many years). Also leaving off corn for the time being. I have noticed so far that I feel less "heavy", though that might just be a result of eating less overall.
I'm still of the opinion that wheat sprouted and mashed, then cooked as flatbread or gruel, wouldn't be much of a digestion problem for anyone. For vegetarians like us, getting enough protein is an issue, and wheat has far more protein than rice or millet, or corn for that matter. However, I'm confident that those latter grains combined with a legume as is traditional in so many cultures is quite sufficient.
Pat suggested fife red wheat for heirloom wheat. I met someone who buys from the Amish, and she says that the Amish wheat does not irritate her gut. Agree that fermented grains will always be better, but it is difficult - it is just completely out of our traditions. When, due to social events, we make bread we always rise it for 24+ hours, and that bread is in fact much lighter, but not good enough. In practice, what used to be wheat in our household is now potatoes, squash, root vegetables, natto, rice, cornmeal, and increased fats.
"getting enough protein is an issue, and wheat has far more protein than rice or millet, or corn for that matter. However, I'm confident that those latter grains combined with a legume as is traditional in so many cultures is quite sufficient."
Plants, green leafy plants in particular, are filled with amino acids, the building blocks of protein. I personally think this calorie counting stuff, and every branch off(heavy consumption of protein being one) is ridiculous. A lot of days, i dont eat more than 500 calories, some days I don't eat at all. But i wake up earlier, feel better, i could think clearer. I just lesson to my body, not a chart, or what some study reveals you should eat. Instead of lessoning to something else, i lesson to my body. It's actually quite simple. If im not hungry i don't eat. Lesson to your body. But it's also important to note if your body is craving bread, or other junk food, it is most likely candida, parasites, etc.
Pat, who informed you on this tick disease? What exactly does your "detox" entail?
Nature, I think you are uninformed regarding the history of wheat culture. The genetic change in commercial wheats over the past 150 years is immense, as compared to the many centuries before during which certain populations gained their adaptations to eating it as a staple.
I have lived in an epicenter of Lyme's and other tick-borne diseases for many years and been very active outdoors in prime habitat and have not been very careful in checking for ticks/tick bites. So it is not only merely plausible that I am infected but it would be rather remarkable if I was not. I was diagnosed by naturopathy. In a few months depending on how I feel I may get blood tests.
Sure, a fresh bite is a no-brainer. Anybody who lives in the northeast knows that by now. The problem is chronic infection long after an un-noticed bite (or bites, as probably in my case). Because all the symptoms of the various tick-borne diseases are shared with other problems: flu, arthritis, sports or work injury, the list is endless.
To keep with this, a friend of mine with some of these problems (inflammation to various joints and spine disks, as well as other problems) gave up wheat on my advice and at 58 she feels great. The problems disappeared over the course of six months, about two years ago. My mother, too, seems to have arthritic knees and I am pushing for her to drop the pasta. That is a tough fight.
Also, regarding the massive doses of antibiotics that are standard treatment for chronic cases of tick diseases, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense where some of the infectious agents are viral. I know lots of people who have been on the 3 or 6 month regimes of powerful antibiotics without any change in symptoms, multiple times.
For what its worth, there is a herbal extract from the Amazon jungle in Peru that has been found by some to be highly effective in treating long-term lyme disease and associated viral infections.
I'd google it for all the conflicting information. I tried it several years ago and have found that it knocks out colds and flu very quickly, and my family, highly suspicious at first, have come around to using it as well.
/just passing info, not selling snake oil.
Here is a link that might be useful: where I buy it
Wayne, ticks carry various viruses. My wife is infected with tick-borne encephalitis, for example (if she went to a typical allopathic doctor most likely she would be put on a long dose of heavy duty antibiotic). Also, it's known now that what has been lumped under the heading of "Lyme" is many different infectious agents.
I was somewhat skeptical about the whole Lyme/tick disease thing, until the last two months which have been quite onerous. I'm a believer now.
