Review: 'Game of Thrones' - 'Dark Wings, Dark Words': The cheese stands alone
A review of tonight's "Game of Thrones" coming up just as soon as I forbid you to die...
"He's a monster." -Sansa
"Dark Wings, Dark Words" begins with Bran Stark dreaming of the first time we saw him in the series: that carefree moment — one of the last the entire Stark family had together — when he was trying to master archery. We even hear Ned's voice for a moment, which seems fitting for a rare episode that features all of his children (plus Theon, who spent much of his childhood in Winterfell). Though they may be spread far and wide across Westeros, they have each other in common, and they also have the lessons of their father, who was a very good man and yet horrendously-equipped to be a participant in the game that the Lannisters, Tyrells and others play so masterfully.
"Dark Wings, Dark Words" isn't exactly an hour of Stupid Ned Stark Jr., and some of Ned's kids are in better circumstances than at the end of last season. (Arya, for instance, is out of Harrenhal and away from Tywin and the Mountain.) But most of them are prisoners in some way or other, and all of them are surrounded by people who are worldlier, wiser and more ruthless than they are.
Bran and Rickon are away from the charred ruins of Winterfell(*) with Hodor (Hodor!) and Osha to protect them, but they have no sense of what to do other than heading towards the Wall — not realizing, of course, just what a mess things are up there at the moment. And already, their convoy seems to have been taken over by the Reed siblings, Jojen and Meera, who know a whole lot more about what's going on and where Bran needs to go next.
(*) Does the explanation that Robb received — that Theon's men burned the place and killed everyone before escaping — track with the circumstances we saw them in at the end of last season? I remain puzzled by this. (Note: if it's only explained in the books, please don't tell me. In that case, I don't care.)
Arya is loose of Harrenhal and heading towards Robb's camp with Gendry and Hot Pie, but three kids traveling alone through the country are always going to be at the mercy of powerful men — particularly when one of those kids is among the most wanted fugitives in all the Seven Kingdoms. Arya is brave — even if her skill with a sword (particularly given her size) doesn't match her courage — but Thoros from the Brotherhood Without Banners (the group the torturer was dropping rats into buckets about at Harrenhal last season) can basically do whatever he wants with her, especially now that the Hound has turned up and identified her.
Regardless of which side he's really on at this point, Jon Snow still seems in way over his head as a member of Mance Rayder's army, and Theon's busy being tortured by captors unknown, for information he doesn't have. Sansa has many people — Littlefinger, Shae, Tyrion, Olenna and Marge(**) — expressing an interest in protecting her, but only some of their motives are pure, and Sansa is still too young and naive to know whom she should and shouldn't trust. Though Olenna and Marge don't seem to mean her any harm, her tea with them is one where they seem like they're playing the game and she's just a tiny piece on the board, to be moved around at their whim.
(**) Our nickname winner by acclimation. Mags is dead. Long live Marge!
Of all the Stark siblings, Robb has the most control of his destiny, but his recent decisions — marrying Talisa, allowing his mother to set Jaime free, now heading to Riverrun for his grandfather's funeral — have caused quite a bit of unrest. Where once his bannermen had unwavering support for the King in the North, now their confidence in him is shaky at best.
At one point, Catelyn tells her new daughter-in-law that this is all her fault: her family's misfortune all stems from the broken promise she made to the seven gods about being a mother to Jon Snow if he lived through the night. And while it's easy for a mother to think this way — especially as she's grappling with the news of her own father's death — I would say most of the Stark family's misfortune can be pinned on Ned, who had a good heart and absolutely no political savvy, and seems to have passed his forthrightness-to-a-fault on to his children. (And if Cat wants to take some of the blame for the current situation, better it should be about her taking Tyrion prisoner, no?)
Again, it's instructive to look at how the various Starks conduct themselves versus, say, the Tyrells. Sansa had no idea how to deal with Joffrey, and lived in terror of him. Even Cersei often seems at a loss for how to control the animal she raised. Marge, though, almost instantly understands how to speak to — and manipulate — the man she's due to marry. Others think they can appease Joffrey, or bend him to their will, where Marge knows that he just wants someone who will see the world through the same sadistic eyes he uses. Her seduction of him — if you can use that word in regards to a boy who seems only interested in inflicting pain, not enjoying sex — is among the most memorable, and disturbing, scenes of this young season.
Some other thoughts on "Dark Wings, Dark Words":
* I'm reluctant to say much about Theon's brief appearances, because my understanding is that a lot of this material in the show pertains to things that happen a few books down the road. So even before we get to the standard warning down below, let me remind you: If something hasn't been revealed on the show yet (whether plot, motivation, character identity, etc.), don't so much as hint about it in your comments. Thank you very much.
* Jon Snow gets his first look at a Warg, a wildling with the power to see through the eyes of animals — which sounds much like the ability that Bran is developing. Hmm...
* In addition to several of the Stark kids, this episode offers us our first glimpse of Brienne and Jaime, still getting on each other's nerves as they take the long walk to King's Landing. Their climactic swordfight is a terrific bit of direction and fight choreography. Though Jaime's supposed to be the greatest fighter in Westeros, Brienne's taller, has a longer reach and has been in much better shape over the past months, which makes it plausible that she'd largely thrash him until some of Robb's bannermen turn up to take them prisoner.
* Speaking of women warriors on TV, as much fun as it is to watch Dame Diana Rigg play Olenna, I kind of wish we had a time machine that could import the Rigg who played Emma Peel to play some kind of character who introduces the ways of karate chopping and bad guy flipping to the people of Westeros.
* Jeor Mormont, leader: even though Sam screwed up the one job he had by not sending the ravens, the old man still makes sure to protect him by ordering the other soldier to make sure Sam stays alive — or else.
* Hodor.
As always, I'd like to keep the book/spoiler issue as simple as possible, however difficult that may be for some to understand. We are here to discuss "Game of Thrones" AS A TV SHOW, NOT AS AN ENDLESS SERIES OF COMPARISONS TO THE BOOKS. Therefore, here's the only rule you should remember: if your comment contains the phrase "the books" without it being immediately preceded by "I haven't read," then you should probably delete what you've written and start over. Anything even vaguely questionable will be deleted, and if you see something that I haven't already removed, please feel free to email me. You may think you're being clever and not giving too much away; in almost every case, you are wrong.
As usual, I've set up a message board discussion thread where you can do as much TV vs. books discussion as you want. And if you don't want to go to the message boards, by all means go to one of the dozens upon dozens of sites (whether "Thrones"-specific or not) that provide a venue to discuss the books to your heart's content. In these comments, everything book-related that has yet to come up on the TV show (plot, characters we haven't met, motivation, etc.) is verboten.
Based on the comments to that initial review, a lot of people are having a hard time understanding this, so I will put it very simply: If people cannot stop themselves from discussing the books in the comments, then there will no longer be comment sections for these reviews. Life's too short.
What did everybody else think?

I'm pretty sure you are right; I think I read in the Torrent forum from a few folks that it is highlights only.
My impression of the highlights is that they are doing every other highlight, skipping them outright.
I watched stage 4 and was caught off guard when they started talking about it being a marathon stage. I had no idea because this wasn't mentioned in any previous highlights. [I got to thinking that the MS was supposed to be late in the dakar but then I realized that Cyril was on a Yammi this year so it made sense that they would do it early in the race while his first engine was still fresh...no?]
Anyway, I am having such a hard time following this Dakar by watching only the ES highlights. Major disappointment.

Thanks Greg.
I can imagine that white mat board is very difficult to manufacture as cotton and other things from nature aren't perfect. What I don't understand is selling a product that is a factory 2nd, but not labeling it as such. I can't put my work out there with dirt, pencil marks, and spots all over it, even if it's a gift for my mother. It seems like the prices have doubled and the quality cut in half. Nielsen Bainbridge needs to make a change since there's obviously something wrong there. I spoke with them about the issue as well and they didn't seem to express too much interest.
I had to use the scratched plexi and some of the board for my frame because of a deadline. Your staff's quick response to my problem and packaging are great. I did not intend to make this thread a "FDI messed up" speech, I'm just in need of some quality goods.

Is your internal HD really case-sensitive (sometimes that's a bogus message)?

Man hospitalized after trench collapses in rural Douglas County
A 27-year-old Burlingame man was flown to an area hospital after he suffered injuries because of a trench collapse Monday afternoon in rural Douglas County, Douglas County Undersheriff Steve Hornberger said.
Emergency officials do not believe the man's injuries were life-threatening, the undersheriff said.
The man, Joseph Succi, an employee of ATC Inc. of Tecumseh, was working to replace tubing on the dam of a pond at 733 North 100 Road when dirt from the side of a trench gave way.
Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical and sheriff's officers were called about 3 p.m. to the scene about 10 miles west of Baldwin City.
Hornberger said the dirt struck the man and pinned his legs for a short period of time. The man was out of the trench when responders arrived.
The man suffered unknown injuries and was flown via a helicopter ambulance to an area hospital, Hornberger said.

Don't go here starving, 'cause you will be waiting a while for your food, but it's delicious ! Everything tasted very fresh. Husband had traditional gyro lunch special, which he said was great. I had lamb kabob bowl, which was wonderful, just too much in the bowl, which made it a little hard to eat w/o stuff falling out. Not complaining, tho, as it meant I got my money's worth. Will definitely be back here. (I don't know why this has different name on Trip Advisor -- makes it confusing.)

40 year old woman | West Palm Beach, FL, USA | Seeking men 32-44 within 50 miles of Palm Beach, FL
Searching for my last boyfriend, would it be you?
I'm from Europe, have lived in FL for over 14 years. I'm well travelled, adventurous, caring, spontaneous, easy-going and romantic. My family lives far, yet they're very close to me. I like to laugh (who doesn't?) & have fun, learn & try new things, go places I never been. I enjoy walks on the beach or hikes in a Nat'l Park. I love to travel/sightsee/explore, (drove cross country many times in the past 10 years), love animals, nature and warm weather. I pay attention to details and appreciate the small things, also like good conversations, go to the beach, theater, concerts, movies, and love to cuddle :)... I have wide range of interests, I am up for different activities or just have a quiet night at home with that special someone. I believe, you can have fun anywhere, do just about anything...with the RIGHT PERSON. I would like to meet someone with (sort of) similar interests, values, who is easy-going, honest, considerate, loyal, understanding, somewhat adventurous, like to travel & have fun, spontaneous, warm, caring, kind and romantic. Physical attraction is important, same as good connection for me but I am not looking for somebody perfect. (I am not perfect either.) We can meet in person to have a better "picture" of each other and to find out whether there is chemistry between us. If there isn't that's OK...but I hope THERE IS! I am searching for a long term relationship, where we can build some nice memories together, can be friends/parters in everything, make plans, and be there for each-other when needed (good & bad times), Looking for a real "friend" I can tell anything to. Note: I am not looking for dates with bunch of people (just looking for "the one"), if you are a serial dater, please go to the next person and I wish you luck in your search. :) Also don't take everything too serious here, you can't really tell how somebody might be, unless you meet them in person :) I could list more qualities or interests (of me & the person I am looking for) but I think, it's nice to figure out those details at the 1st, 2nd, 3rd...date. :)
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing
Other types of exercise, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Birds, Cats, Dogs, Exotic Pets, Fish, Horses, Other
I love all animals.
Some other viewpoint
Italy, Many parts of Europe, I've been 49 states but I like Western U.S. (NM, AZ, CA, CO, UT, NV, SD, WY, ID, OR, MT, WA), AK, HI, British Columbia, Any remote part of Canada, Australia, Palm Beach..Any place I never been ( Bora Bora, Sicily, Africa)
Movies: mysteries (e.g. Agatha Christie, Poirot) or anything with a good story, acting: horror, action, thriller, comedy, animated .. Food: Italian, Japanese, Seafood, Chinese, anything..as long as not spicy.
Travel/explore - any areas that new to me in any country Take long road trips anywhere (even to the middle of "nowhere") Like to find out the unknown - every areas in life (like learning) Outdoors, hiking, mountain biking, museums, making plans..
Escape by Carolyn Jessop ( it's a true story about living and escaping polygamous life in Utah) I read anything that informative or entertaining (perhaps your profile?) Books based on true stories & facts, different cultures, lifestyles, travel..

Horoscope Pisces May 2015
The Moon waxes from the 1st to the 7th and from the 23rd to the 31st: good for starting new projects. The Moon wanes from the 8th to the 23rd: good for finishing projects and tying up loose ends. The Moon of the 23rd occurs in Gemini, your 4th Solar House. Deep psychological and family issues clear up during this period. The Moon of the 7th occurs in Libra your 8th Solar House, enhancing.your libido and giving you extra energy to achieve personal transformation.
The hectic pace of your career is.slowing down this month, and with most of the planets below the horizon it's good to focus on finding and functioning from your emotional comfort zone. Establishing a stable home base will be more difficult, but you have the will to do it.
There is almost no Water power this month, Pisces. People will seem to be unconsciously cruel – insensitive – out of touch with their feelings or the feelings of others. Don't take this too much to heart and don't draw any metaphysical conclusions from it – it's only the astrological weather. –
Most of the power this month is in the Air and Fire Signs. Though this enhances career and love issues, it is not especially comfortable for you. People talk but they don't feel. They think and theorize but don't do. Don't confuse big ideas with actions.
Health needs to be "guarded during this period; Pisces – especially after the 20th. Between 60 and 70 per cent of the planets are in stressful alignment "with you. This is an unusually high percentage. Do what you need to do and let go. Avoid judgement, resistance or power struggles. Flow and rest. Just getting through the day with your health and sanity intact should be considered a success.
Keeping a positive mood and attitude will do much to enhance your health. As we mentioned, don't force career issues now. Things will develop on their own. Try to talk less and think less. You don't need to be wasting vital energy on idle thought or gossip. It will be difficult to control speech this month, but you should try. It wouldn't hurt to schedule regular visits with a masseuse, reflexologist or natural healer either. This will preempt problems before they arise.
Your important areas of interest are: career; home, family and domestic issues; communication and intellectual interests; spirituality.
Your paths to greatest fulfilment are: children, creativity and fun; home, family and psychological issues; finance.
Though you're not going to starve this month, earnings are more difficult than usual. Mars, your Financial Planet, not only goes retrograde (on the 11th) but also receives stressful aspects after the 20th. Important purchases, investments and financial commitments should be made before the 10th. After that, research things more carefully. Family expenses could curb earnings. The desire for emotional harmony could make you pass up some lucrative opportunities. Overall energy could also be a factor – you just can't take on too much work right now. There could be some financial disagreements with your spouse or partner.
Love is bittersweet. Someone in love with a Pisces should offer emotional support and not add to his or her stress.

At last, a soy free phosphatidyl serine supplement!
6 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer1491632 on Dec 04, 2011
Because of a soy allergy I can't take most Phosphatidyl Serine supplements, they are all from soy lecithin. It only would be even better if Now Foods comes with a 300 mg edition instead of 150 mg (to low potency) and with gell capsules (instead of capsules with fillers) for an affordable price! Thank you for this soyfree supplement Now Foods !! Greetings from the Netherlands
Good substitute for people that have soy allergies

I've tried the GNC, Jarrows Formula, Solgar soy Phosphatidylserine for stress and got very bad side effects because i am allergic to soy. Once i found out there was a soy free version made from sunflower it has worked tremendously well in reducing my stress levels considerably where i haven't felt this great in many years.
Headaches and Nausea!
Posted by 5412520879221613798 on Oct 26, 2013
This not for me as it gives me headaches and nausea. I have used other brands with no problems.
Not good for me
Posted by Reviewer2388887 on Aug 28, 2011
I am sorry to say that sunflower is worse than soy for my body...

I moved back to the Toledo area over the summer. I am a single mother of two, and now with another on the way. I'm looking for some mama's, single or not, to hang out with. I know there used to be a big mama group in Toledo I was involved with when i was in the area before, but do not know if they are still around.
So who's in the Toledo area? Are there groups already?
: Mother (4/11/06) to Josephine and (4/23/09) to Oliver and baby (due June 1st)
Babies: Angel (6/29/02), Tiberius (3/8/11), Lillianna (12/27/11)
It's been a long time since I have seen any posts for the Toledo area Moms here on MDC.
I think most people now hang out on the Naturally Sweet Parents group on FB. You may also find a group at the Mother's Own Birth Friends page on FB. Mother's Own is a closed group. I'm not sure at the Naturally Sweet group.
Thanks, I'll have to look it up. This pregnancy is going to be hard from the pregancy through the labor and delivery. The father doesn't want to be involved and I'm afraid I'll be doing it alone. Mind you a part of me just thinks I'd rather just stay in the comfort of my own home and go unassisted. While I know it makes sense to have another there, one I don't feel comfortable with most people and two I can't afford to pay people. My labors are super quick with only complications that are supposed to slow down labor, but labors were 3 and 4 hours total. So I can't imagine what having a super quick one would be like.
: Mother (4/11/06) to Josephine and (4/23/09) to Oliver and baby (due June 1st)
Babies: Angel (6/29/02), Tiberius (3/8/11), Lillianna (12/27/11)

Moving forward, the Environment Program will support activities that help communities build resilience in the face of climate change by:
Report shows rising student debt for college undercuts path to middle class
Higher education in the United States has become a debt-for-diplomas system in which most students borrow increasing amounts and colleges increasingly use tuition revenue to balance their books.

Surprise: You've earned a college credential
When he stopped taking classes at Northwestern Michigan College, Kulin Froelich knew a single math class stood between him and an associate's degree. Like many adult students, the 29-year-old had sporadically attended several schools intending to piece together his transcripts for a degree. But working as a chef in a resort town, raising his toddler son, trying to buy a house and planning a wedding had kept him busy and away from academics the last few years. That missing math class just wasn't his top priority.

Community members, environmentalists find ways to mitigate impact of rail yard expansion in Chicago
In summer of 2012, residents of Chicago's Englewood neighborhood were increasingly concerned about the railroad yard in their south side community. Chicago is the busiest rail gateway in the United States, and the 140-acre Norfolk Southern rail yard in Englewood was ready to expand over 84 additional acres. With a goal of insisting that public health and quality of life are protected, a coalition of unlikely partners vowed to create a win-win outcome for residents and the railroad alike.
Lincoln Park Coast Cultural District revitalizing New Jersey neighborhood
A house of worship and then a soup kitchen, South Park Calvary United Presbyterian Church had been a focal point for the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Newark, N.J., for some 160 years. A fire in 1992 destroyed much of the building, leaving only the facade standing.
Study finds for-profit colleges have strengths, but cost questions are raised
Many students and employers remain unconvinced about the value of a for-profit college education, according to new research from Public Agenda. Although for-profit students are largely satisfied with the quality of their schools, many consider the financial burden of these schools high, and it is unclear to them whether that cost will pay off.

Puzzled Man Seeks Missing Piece!
I suppose that to any parent, their children are their world – and I'm no exception. While my two beautiful daughters are with me every other weekend and during school breaks and holidays, there's room in my life for a special woman with similar interests. Easy going and down to earth, I might describe myself as a bit of a "beach bum" because I like to bake in the sun when the weathers nice. Good-hearted, caring and loving, I love being spontaneous, laughing and having a good time. I'm not here to play games or get caught up in drama, but to make a genuine connection with someone whose interests and personality complement my own. Life's too short to take too seriously, so the woman I'm looking for is down to earth, loves to laugh, and as comfortable in jeans and t-shirt as she is rockin that little black dress for a night on the town. Wink – send me an e-mail – let's talk! I won't know you're interested until I hear from you and meanwhile we're missing out on all the fun. I want to hear some of your stories and share some of mine while we get to know each other and decide if we want to take things to the next level and meet in person. I hope to hear from you soon and we'll see where things go.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Gardening/Landscaping , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Travel/Sightseeing

Why is Psycho rated R?
Official MPAA Rating: Psycho is rated R for
Violence: A characters steals a large amount of money. Arguments between a son and his mother are overheard several times. A woman is slashed with a knife while showering, although the audience never sees the knife make contact with the body. Blood runs down the drain and is later seen splattered in the shower and around the bathroom. A man washes blood from his hands after cleaning up the bathroom. Another character is stabbed in the face (blood shown), falls down the stairs and is repeatedly stabbed after collapsing on the floor. Several murders involving stabbing or poisoning are discussed. A character badgers another with questions and causes him to become angry. A man is hit over the head with an object. Characters, one holding a knife, struggle with one another. Several corpses are shown.
Sexual Content: A man flirts with a secretary. A woman is shown in her bra on several occasions. A couple redresses after an implied sexual encounter. They kiss and cuddle on the bed and discuss the future of their affair, dirty love letters and the next opportunity to be together. Through a peephole, a man watches a woman undress. Bare shoulders and stomach are seen in a shower scene along with very brief backside and partial breast nudity. A character is incorrectly referred to as a transvestite because there are no sexual desires involved in the cross-dressing.
Language: The script contains a term of Deity and adult oriented dialogue about murders, suicide and illicit sexual affairs.
Alcohol / Drug Use: A character makes reference to a bottle in man's work desk and later talks about going out for drinks. A character pulls out a package of cigarettes and smokes one.

Every year endless attention is paid to the players who are entering their NHL Draft seasons and are expected to go amongst the top picks. Whether it's your power forwards, your play-making centres, stud goalies, or flashy puck-moving defensemen, if you put up numbers, you'll be paid in press clippings and (eventually) a jersey.
But every year there are also countless kids who don't hear their name called and end up going home disappointed once the draft finishes. Some will hear that they're too small, others that their seasons weren't good enough, and some will get told flat-out that they aren't good enough.
But here's what we need to remember about these kids: They're 18. Take a look at your class pictures from High School, and you'll see plenty of differences: Some kids got a little taller, some finally filled out a couple of years later, and others (while the pictures won't show it) simply became more co-ordinated and athletic.
For some of those kids, the transition and advancement can take just a year. While they didn't have successful Draft seasons, their follow-up years were lights-out and enough to earn them draft consideration a second time around. For some, it's a third time around.
Dany Syvret, a Memorial Cup champion and former London Knight, had to wait for his third draft-eligible season to finally get selected before he went to Edmonton in the third round in 2005. Pearson, a Canadian World Junior and premiere scorer for the Barrie Colts, is experiencing the draft spotlight one year after he was eligible, and figures to hear his name called this year.
But Pearson isn't the only OHL'er who could crack a smile on Draft day after missing out the first time around. Each year there are a couple of players who, one year later, draw some hard-earned attention. Here are a few of them...
Starting Goalies: Both Michael Houser of the London Knights and Franky Palazzese of the Kitchener Rangers have had sensational seasons. Houser's has been almost too obvious, coming into the season dubbed as 'the best in the OHL' by his then-Head Coach Dale Hunter. Palazzese meanwhile, has captured the hearts of Rangers' fans with gutsy efforts night-in, night-out in place of John Gibson who has battled injuries. Both goalies rely on solid positioning, while Palazzese is willing to improvise from time-to-time. Houser is a 1992 birthday who was released from Philadelphia Flyers' camp during NHL pre-season this year (and has attended a Canucks' prospect camp), while Palazzese is a 1993 birthday, who went un-drafted and un-signed last year.
Seth Griffith, F, London Knights: Let's put it this way: What hasn't Seth Griffith done for the London Knights this year? After getting overlooked during last year's draft and getting cut from Tampa Bay Lightning camp and left contract-less, Griffith has made many look silly off, and on the ice. Griffith has shown a spectacular all-around offensive game, playing a pivotal role in the Knights' pre-trade deadline success. He leads league-leading London in goals, points, power play goals, and shorthanded goals, while he's fourth on the team in assists and plus/minus. Griffith's size may still scare some teams off, but it's hard to argue with the production over the last two seasons the '93 has put up: 66 goals and 80 assists in 130 games.
Ben Fanelli, D, Kitchener Rangers: It's never easy to step back into a lineup after an extended absence. It's even harder when you had barely experienced the league before that time away. That's the challenge that faced Ben Fanelli at the beginning of the season, as the Kitchener Rangers' defenseman looked to resume a normal hockey life after essentially missing the first two seasons of his OHL career. But after everything he's been through, Fanelli has quickly ascended the Rangers' depth chart, to the point that his lightning-quick development in both ends of the ice had the team confident in his abilities to take over for the recently-departed Julian Melchiori. Fanelli's injury and rehab kept the '93 out of his first draft eligible season, but the way he's performed this year would have had him drafted last year, and should be good for at least a camp invite this season.
Darcy Greenaway, F, Kingston Frontenacs: Not many people expected much out of the Kingston Frontenacs when it came to this season. With the re-shaping of a coaching staff and management underway, it was thought that this was a growing year for the team, and it has shown to be as much. One player that has grown leaps and bounds in a short time though, is diminutive forward Darcy Greenaway. Greenaway, the Wellington Dukes' Rookie of the Year following his lone season (2010/11) with the team, has become the Frontenacs' biggest weapon. A consistent performer all year long with the hands to score goals in bunches, Greenaway leads the Fronts in goals, assists, points, and power play goals. Greenaway, a former draft pick of the London Knights and '93 birth-year, is one of those players the puck seems to find, and with a little more exposure in the OHL this year, someone out there has probably taken notice of him.
Tanner Richard, F, Guelph Storm: Playing his draft season in Switzerland, Richard (like many of his countrymen) went un-drafted last year. In fact in the 2011 Entry Draft, just two Swiss-born players were selected with one of them (Sven Baertschi), coming out of the Western Hockey League. Now Richard has spent a season in the OHL, gained exposure at a much higher level, and has been able to show that he can compete playing the North American game. On a Guelph Storm team that needed a play-maker after losing their 'Big Three' in the off-season, Richard has provided just that. His 34 assists have him tied for second on the team, and that's taking into consideration that he hasn't played since February 7th with an 'upper body injury'. It would have been nice to see if Richard could have finished out the season strong, but Richard showed that he's got the hands and the hockey sense to compete at the OHL level and it wouldn't be too surprising to see an NHL take a flyer on him.
Zach Hall, F, Barrie Colts: All of the talk has centered around Tanner Pearson in Barrie this year, but if you want big improvements from one year to the next? It's hard to overlook what Zach Hall has done. Hall went from a 12-point player in 2010/11to a 60-point player this season. Beginning from the first game of the year when he had a five-point game on the top line with Pearson and Colin Behenna, to later in the season where he's found himself alongside overager Daniel Erlich, Hall has produced. Like a couple of the others on this list, it's the size that may get him overlooked and leave a little to be desired, but Hall could find himself at a camp next year. Chances are with the scouts coming out to see Pearson, someone might have seen something out of Hall.

Playing with sourdough
Well since its been raining here the past 3 weeks and I couldn't tend to the oven construction, I decided to dabble in some bread making in my kitchen oven. I began a sourdough starter around 3 weeks ago according to the instructions in The Bread Bakers Apprentice. After about a week and a half of feedings I decided to make bread (basic sourdough recipe in the aforementioned book) with the half that usually gets discarded.
One of the initial problems I had was that the bulk rise really didn't rise too much. Maybe about 30-50% if that. Then the final proof didn't really rise at all. The first picture below is the finished product. Very little spring, dry crust, and VERY dense crumb. It seemed as if the only air pockets in the crumb were the giant caverns that weren't supposed to be there. The bread actually tasted quite well though.
So a week later I tried again. This time the starter looked a little more active than it was before. The bulk rise took quite a long time (4-6 hours) and this time rose to about 70%. I think i kneeded this batch better, but when I did my final proof (overnight in the fridge this time) it only rose maybe 50%. I put it in the oven (better steam technique this time as well) and got much better spring and color to the crust. After cooling I cut into it and while the crumb had improved it was still denser than I would have liked and still had the caverns. Again the flavor was good and the crust was actually edible this time. One good thing is a couple days later I bought a freshy made loaf of 'pain au levain' from Central Market and had it with dinner. My wife asked how I could get my bread to look like that (lol). But after eating the bread she said mine was much better than the store bought one...she said the store one tasted fake. Oh the pics of the second run are below as well.
So with this limited information, anyone have any pointers? I'm cooking the bread on firebricks that have been preheated in a 500F oven for 1.5-2hrs. Oh and I usually feed my starter the day before. Is my starter still not active enough?
Re: Playing with sourdough
Well the second two loaves are definitely better than the first.
1. What kind(s) of flour are you using?
2. When you say feeding, are you in fact doubling?
3. Where and at what temperature is your primary ferment taking place?
4. How cold is the fridge?
Starter should be active enough to bake in my opinion. the good news is it gets stronger with time. Store bought is sometimes somewhat fake, I have seen where some add vinegar to give the bread the sourdough tartness.

Re: Playing with sourdough
I'm using King Aurthur unbleached bread flour. I began the starter with organic dark rye. When I feed I use at least a 50/50 by weight mix of flour and water to double (or triple as in today's feeding) the starter. Primary fermentation is taking place at about 75F. The fridge temp is set between 38 and 40.
Re: Playing with sourdough
You say you feed it the day before...are you feeding it twice a day for the few days before? Then using it 8-12 hours after the last feeding? Also the doubling that Dutch mentioned is pretty important, I get the best results when I am doubling the mass each time...
Re: Playing with sourdough
RLF5 - great looking loaves, the carmelization of the first batch looks great, and the gringe on the second set is clearly what we're looking for in a nice loaf.
I have to say, I'm not as particular about my starter regarding feeding carefully before use - I've used it even after it has sat cold in the fridge for over a week after feeding and it seems to do the job. I just try to be patient with the rising. I do a bulk ferment until it has clearly doubled, which is often 6-8 hours out on the counter (usually assemble the dough in the evening before bed). Once it has doubled I knock it down, then place it in the fridge for another 10 hours or so, then shape it (usually the second evening) and let it rise in a cool place (this time of year covered on the back porch works well) overnight until it has clearly risen. Then it's ready to bake in the morning. At some point I'll run into overrisen dough, but I have not seen that yet. The long slow rise gives me a slight sourdough flavor and I'm getting those beautiful tiny bubbles on the surface when I bake it.
From the microbiology standpoint, I wonder why feeding the dough twice a day a few days prior to baking would be any better than what I'm doing? I appreciate that better bakers than I (probably all of the bakers here) have been doing the (I'll call it) obsessive feeding technique Drake describes for quite some time, but once the yeast wakes up and starts feeding in earnest it should be all the same. I might introduce a little extra lactic acid in my dough with my week old starter, but that is diluted out pretty quick, and a little lactic acid is a good natural preservative. Besides, yeast can even use lactic acid as fuel in the presence of oxygen. I'm sure a well fed starter gets a faster jump on helping the dough rise, but a slow rise doesn't hurt the flavor or texture. My approach is all about baking on my schedule - it's casual - I just want to eat good bread.
Re: Playing with sourdough
I don't have a lot to add here yet, but I am joining the sourdough crowd. I had another boule with 50% king arthur and 50% caputo (and 6 grams of yeast in a 500 gram batch) fall in today after an overnight proofing -- using commercial yeast. Haven't had a culture in the refrigerator for two years, but.... it's time.
I'm ready to start the the "obessive feeding technique" again.

Re: Playing with sourdough
Re: Playing with sourdough
The marked difference between the first and second batch shows you're definitely on your way. The spring on the second batch tells me you used enough steam to keep the surface moist for the correct amount of time. Let's not forget that home ovens read air temp, not surface temp. It's virtually impossible to mimic the results of a brick oven in a home oven. You will get better spring, volume, caramelization, crust in your WFO with a floor brick temp of around 550 F.
I suspect that your starter is not quite mature yet, hence the difference in the bulk rise of the two batches. Be patient until all the good bugs you want take up residence and thrive, but don't stop baking in the meantime. Dutch and Drake are correct, you should always at least double your starter. If you want it to be slightly sour, feed it with hard, unbleached bread flour. If you want to increase the sourness somewhat, use organic whole wheat a few times in whatever proportion with bread flour you wish. If you want to really increase the sourness, use about 50 percent organic whole rye with bread flour. This has to do with the proportionally larger amounts of grain sugars in whole wheat and whole rye, plus the naturally sour flavour of rye grain.
Recently, I've been following Jeffrey Hamelman's recommendations on feeding. The day before I make the dough, I take the "mother" starter from the fridge and measure out the amount I'll need then feed it. I simply let it sit at room temperature for about 14 hours. It's ready to go when there are definite stripes of foam on the surface, as well as deeper bubbles. See the pic attached.
There are many, many variables in making consistently good sourdough. The trick is to remove one at a time as you progress. The density and crumb of your loaves might have to do with overkneading. Reinhart and Hamelman differ on this. Reinhart usually specifies a fully kneaded dough temp of 77 to 81, while Hamelman sticks mostly at 76. Reinhart commonly requires water at 90 to 100 F, while Hamelman manages dough temp by accounting for the mixer's friction factor, plus sourdough temp, plus air and flour temp, then adjusting the water temp to get into the 76 range. On a hot summer day, this might mean the water is at 47 F. Sounds odd, but it definitely works. It's better to shorten the mixer kneading time and finish by hand, rather than risk overheating the dough. Also, you might experiment with very short machine time and stretching and folding the dough once or twice during bulk fermentation to strengthen the gluten matrix. It's the gluten, in part, that contributes to good crumb.
I've found over time that levain doughs don't really double in bulk fermentation; they swell and grow to almost but not quite that. During retardation of the shaped loaves, you'll get about the same. Commercial yeast doughs will definitely double (or more ), but the activity is not the same or at the same rate.
It may be, too, that you are overhandling the dough when shaping. Believe me, this takes practice. My procedure is to divide and scale the loaves, then pat the pieces more or less flat, but not too aggressively, then do a preliminary shaping, let rest for 15 minutes, seam sides up, then flip them over and shape quickly before turning them into banneton.
However, having said all this, the difference between your first and second batch shows enormous improvement. Just keep at it. After all, good levain loaves are highly prized because they can be tricky to make consistently well. That's why people write books about them.

Re: Playing with sourdough
Here's two pics that might help you. One is a close up of the grigne of an olive levain hearth loaf. The other is the crumb of the same bread. You'll notice the pronounced caramelization in the loaf shot, as well as the dark portion on the flap of the grigne. Both have to do with grain sugars on the surface of the dough that benefit from overnight retardation.
"Made are tools, and born are hands"--William Blake, 1757-1827
Re: Playing with sourdough
Thanks to everyone for your replies. I forgot to mention that I'm kneading exclusively by hand b/c I have no mixer. I kneaded for about 15 minutes on the second batch and the internal temp was about 80F. The first batch only had a ten minute kneading and I forgot to get a temp. Also, I believe I used room temperature water (75F) for both batches. When shaping the first batch I could see the dough slightly tearing, or wanting to tear from the surface tension. This was not the case with the second batch.
Jim I really like the idea of measuring out the starter I'll need and feeding it. I'll have to try that for my next loaves. I"ll also try to handle the dough better during shaping.
Thanks again!

Poem 18
Percival Jordan
1892 - 1912
I am where I am
Because of who I was.
I imbibed a million breaths
And observed the stars dotting the night skies
Like actors taking the stage for another eternal encore.
I am in the air
As I am in the ground.
And I know the truth now.
Life was an impossible possibility.
Born of pleasure and fear and desperation.
And I'm relieved the ridiculous race is over.
I spent most of my carefree days here in Clark Cemetery.
Helping Artilissa water the flowers.
And as a boy I played amidst the sunken graves.
I sat in silence like a scheming spider
Under the stretching shadows of the old tombstones.
I wrote poems to the dead
And read the Psalms aloud
With my many lady friends dressed in silk
Sitting scandalously close to me.
Under a darkening full moon shade one evening
I kissed Ethel Woodstock on the lips
And I released my emerging manhood
With a simmering sigh.
I felt strangely odd when Ethel died that night,
Enveloped in her mother's helpless embrace.
I placed a rose bud upon her mahogany casket
And I cried as a light rain descended
Upon the drinking gorged ground around us..
Indeed I was the annoying little boy in the graveyard;
That flim-flaming rascal
With the cocky smirk of a broken gentleman.
With costumed enterprise,
I tricked many a passerby
With repeated low-moaning dirges
From behind the Hadley tombstone.
Their screams were hilarious but they never caught me.
God knows I had plans.
Plans to be a lawyer.
Plans to be an electrician.
Plans to be married and to find peace of mind.
But when I awoke one cold morning in 1912,
My bed was soaked in warm blood,
And all my plans were forever harvested by the Grim One.
I love Clark Cemetery in the autumn.
When the leaves turn dark and deadly.
When the rippling landscape illuminates the truth and finality of all things.
Life is just a fast-moving storm
And none of us has the time to notice the returning rainbow.
Oh, for a simple cup of coffee again!
