What about you guys?
Re: Your life's soundtrack...?
hrmm... 8 - 12 songs that influenced me or changed my life. well there have been several that meet that criteria so i'll try to explain why on each one.
Murder by Death - Devil in Mexico
This was the first song I was introduced to that was truly outside of the Christian pop genre and opened my eyes to massive amounts of music I had never heard and couldn't wait to try. It was actually the album "Who Will Survive and What Will Be Left of Them" that opened my eyes, but since we're doing songs and this is the first song I figured it would make sense.
Interpol - Obstacle 2
This is the song that got me to start looking past the drums in a song and looking at the lyrics. Lyrics like "I'm gonna hold your face and toast the snow that fell" and "Friends don't waste wine when there's words to sell" completely captivated me.
Interpol - Say Hello To The Angels
This song is along the same lines as the previous song, both are on the "Turn On The Bright Lights" album, because of the lyrics. I honestly can't understand alot of what he is saying but the way he said it caught me.
Eminem - Kim
First off, this is an incredibly violent song that has caused alot of controversy. But I discovered it in the middle of my divorce. As I started learning what Eminem was going through I realized that I was going through alot of the exact same things. As I explored further into his music and realized the entire range of emotions he had gone through that I was currently going through. All in all this song helped me through one of the hardest times in life and led me to definitively say that Eminem is really the only rapper I can stand.
The Blood Brothers - Ambulance vs. Ambulance
This song led me to start discovering harder music. I won't quote the lyric that really grabbed me out of this song since there are kids who read these posts, but I still say to this day that it is the best lyric in music. Most people don't agree with me, but w/e it's my opinion. =D
Radiohead - Electioneering
Interpol taught me to listen to the lyrics, Radiohead taught me to listen to the entire composition of a song and fully capture the beauty of a song.
Led Zepplin - Communication Breakdown
This is where I discovered the great Bonzo. Nuff said.
The Mars Volta - Drunkenship of Lanterns
This entire album completely blew my mind. I discovered John Theodore which completely changed my view of a drumset and led me to start discovering other incredible drummer. i.e. Buddy Rich, Billy Cobham, Steve Gadd, on and on and on.
Travis Barker
I'm not putting a song on here because even though Travis's playing amazed me, it was a comment from him that forever changed my line of thought while playing the drums. The comment was: "Drums are more than a beat machine". Think about it next time you're playing with your band and tell me it doesn't make you change things.
And that about does it. While i could mention more, I'll stop myself here as I've doubt anyone has actually read my post the whole way. hahaha, at least I know I would've stop reading half way down. Stupid selective ADD. =D
Re: Your life's soundtrack...?
My soundtrack would be a month to month affair. I usually tire of an album after 1 month and never listen again. So my life soundtrack would be inspired from styles.
Early years, 0 to 10. Glam metal, Slade, The Sweet, Suzi Quatro etc. Phil Spector Wall of sound productions, Motown etc. Drummers would include Hal Blaine and Earl Palmer and those in the various bands.
11 to 15. Big band jazz and movie soundtracks. First exposure to Zappa. Harder rock, AC/DC, Judas Priest etc.
16 to 18. Classic prog rock, Yes, Genesis, ELP, Gentle giant, Kansas etc.
19 to 25. JAZZ! All forms.
25 to 30. Began Playing percussion, seriously competing with drumset. Began to study world music. Became fascinated with Afrocentric rhythms from around the world. This continues.
Of course there have been many artists I have enjoyed along the way. Too many to name.
Re: Your life's soundtrack...?

In fact, I am going to see an LA cover band called "Gods of thunder" They are a Kiss cover band that look and sound very much like Kiss from 1976. They are friends/approved by the actual band.
Can't see KISS live, but these guys will do. Gods of thunder, and 3 opening bands for $18.00.

Re: Your life's soundtrack...?
And this:
New album (2008-present)
Late 2008 saw the band take another unexpected turn. Over ten years after their last studio album, and following years of denials about ever wanting to do a new album, Stanley and Simmons seemed to have changed their minds. In November 2008, Paul Stanley stated to rock photographer Ross Halfin that a new Kiss album is in the works, which Stanley would produce. Stanley also stated that the album would have a "real 70's Kiss sound" to it.[92] He also confirmed that Kiss would tour North America and Europe in 2009.[93] On November 26 2008, Gene Simmons confirmed the information about a new KISS album and said he expected it to be released in Summer 2009. [94] On November 29, Paul Stanley confirmed to the official Kiss website that the band will be entering the studio soon,[95] repeating the assertion that the new record will be modelled on the band's classic 1970s sound.

"Ive fought a lot of wrestlers before, and I know Weidman has a good wrestling, but Im confident on the work Im developing with my team," he said. "I believe in my striking game against Weidmans wrestling. Hes complete in every aspect of the game, but Im confident in what I do."
A win at UFC 173 would be a historic one for Machida. The Brazilian, a former light heavyweight champion, will join B.J. Penn and Randy Couture as the only fighters to win UFC belts in multiple weight classes if he beats Weidman in Las Vegas, but hes not paying attention to those stats yet.
"This is the consequence of our work. I cant focus on that," he said. "Records and numbers are cool, everybody wants that, but I try not to think about that."
"The Dragon" is the underdog against Weidman, but (again) thats something he doesnt care.
"I dont pay attention to those things," he said. "I got to a stage in my career where Im more focused in what Im doing than in what people bet or what is Weidman training. Thats what matters. The experience that I have and what Ive done makes me more comfortable in a situation like this."

Settling in and setting up
Adjusting to life in a new country can be challenging. You are leaving behind all that is familiar and facing entirely new experiences – a new culture, language and expectations of you as a student.
For detailed information about transitions, Australian culture, and useful websites, visit our Adjusting to Uni pages.
Also, remember there are a number of student support services to help you – in particular Counselling and Psychological Services (CAPS).
Find accommodation
Read our advice on temporary accommodation and Tips for starting a search, and visit the Accommodation Information Service website.
Once you arrive in Sydney, take advantage of the free Accommodation Information Sessions being held on campus. These sessions explain the different types of accommodation available, where to look, and what you need to know about living in Sydney. Staff will be able to answer any questions you might have.
Get an Australian bank account
Most banks in Australia have accounts specifically tailored for international students. There are two banks on the Camperdown/Darlington campus: the Commonwealth Bank and the National Australia Bank, both on Level 3 of the Wentworth Building.
These banks offer accounts for international students and have a large network of Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) across Sydney, which is important so you don't have to carry large amounts of money around.
For the banks on campus, you can open a bank account using only your passport as identification, if you have been Australia for less than six weeks.
For help with budgeting, see Living costs for international students. The University's Financial Assistance Service is also available to provide support if you experience financial difficulty at any stage during your studies.
Apply for your Tax File Number
A Tax File Number (TFN) is a number issued to each taxpayer in Australia. It is important to provide a tax file number to your employer as soon as you have received it, otherwise they are required by law to deduct the maximum amount of tax from your salary.
It may also be a good idea to provide your TFN to your bank, to prevent unnecessary tax being charged on any interest you earn. For more information about tax in Australia, visit the Australian Taxation Office website.
Set up mobile phones and internet access
Australia has a very wide range of mobile phone and internet providers. Before buying a phone, installing internet, or signing a contract, read the consumer guide for international students at NSW Fair Trading. Also see the information below on computing services on campus.
Access University facilities
When enrolment opens, we will email you instructions for how to activate your UniKey and Sydney Mail email account.
Your UniKey is your login and password to online facilities, including free internet, learning tools, and our accommodation and job databases.
Your Sydney Mail account is your official University email address where the University will communicate to you during your studies here.
Living costs for international students
For an international student on a budget, Sydney need be no more expensive to live in than any other state capital city. Living costs in New South Wales compare favourably with costs in other Australian states. The increased competition found in Australia's largest city means that prices for many goods and services such as food, clothing, child care and medical costs can be actually lower than in smaller cities.
The mild climate Sydney enjoys throughout the year also means that students spend very little on heating or air-conditioning compared to students living in cooler or hotter cities.
The University is located close to a number of relatively inexpensive suburbs and students will find that there are many economical housing options available.
Costs can be substantially reduced by sharing accommodation and meals, living further away from the campus, and shopping carefully at the wide range of markets and discount shops that Sydney has to offer.

Comments about JIA Modern Chinese Tea Set:
Yes, they're small... but most Eastern dining and tea products tend to be much smaller than we are used to. But sitting down with that perfectly brewed, delicate service and serving and being served by your loved one is a sweet and gentl way to unwind at the end of the day and returns that peaceful, gentle, loving together time we often forget to set aside time for.
There are many larger, beautiful sets that are great for just sitting/standing around and discussing whatever's at hand. This set is best enjoyed in silence or with a peaceful flute or bell playing in the background as you reconnect with the one you love... (or dream about a past or future love). We try to make it a more formal event ... dressing and grooming for each other at least as well as we would for strangers we must meet with during the day.
Of course you don't need special equipment for that, but creating your own tea service is a nice, peaceful coming together.
Comments about JIA Modern Chinese Tea Set:
This is a lovely but 'toy' like tea set, very tiny, not really practical for serving more than one cup of tea for two at most at one time. Felt the price was way too high for the use you would get out of it after I saw the set in person. Still, it was lovely to look at and was made of good quality materials.

First Circuit Solicitor David Pascoe is seeking an additional $192,918 from Dorchester County to offset losses in grants and state funding.
Pascoe appeared before Dorchester County Council on Monday to plead his case.
The county currently provides $671,350.
Dorchester County's population, and therefore its caseload, have increased, but funding from the county has remained flat and state and grant funding has decreased by almost 60 percent in the last four years, he said.
Pascoe said he hasn't requested an increase in seven years.
Councilman Jay Byars noted the General Assembly hasn't been funding the Local Government Fund according to the formula in the law.
The Local Government Fund is supposed to help local governments cover the cost of supporting state functions.
There was much grumbling at the county budget workshop last week over a House vote to suspend the formula, and over the fact that Summerville Rep. Jenny Horne voted in favor of suspension and Summerville Rep. Chris Murphy didn't vote at all.
St. George Rep. Patsy Knight voted against suspension.
At Monday's meeting, Pascoe promised he would be an ally in the fight for more state funding and would make any calls requested of him.
But without additional funding, he said, he would probably have to start making cuts in his office.
The first cut would likely be to prosecuting magistrate court cases, because he isn't Constitutionally required to handle those cases, he said.
The county agreed to fund an assistant solicitor at the magistrate court level last year to reduce the backlog of cases and discovered over the course of a six-month pilot that the county collected more fines and saved money by getting people out of the county jail more quickly.
Pascoe said he would probably also ask for fewer terms of court.
His attorneys already handle more cases than recommended, he said. The ideal is 250 cases per prosecutor, but his attorneys handle 402, he said.
Because Dorchester's population base isn't in the county seat, this is the only county in the circuit where he has two offices and has to pay rent, Pascoe said.
Orangeburg and Calhoun counties provide him with free office space and utilities and sometimes cover the costs of expert witness fees, he said.

Instant replay has become a hot topic of conversation lately thanks to a controversial soccer goal scored by France's William Gallas after Thierry Henry had an obvious handball that set it up. Because of that goal, France is going to the 2010 FIFA World Cup and Ireland has been eliminated. Apart from an unofficial, nationwide ban on French wine (not too difficult for the locals provided that the whiskey tap keeps pouring), this controversy does beg the question, should FIFA take a look at Instant replay?
Thierry Henry Handball Video
The replay naysayers in soccer are the same as the naysayers in Baseball, they talk of the game's history and not wanting to slow the sport down for five minutes at a time with reviews (as seen in American Football). But the proponents of the idea point out that this is not medieval football, it's the twenty-first century and we have the technology to correct these mistakes.
Diego Maradona Hand of God Video
It is an interesting question though and worthy of review, not just for the regular soccer powerhouses like England who were defeated by the Maradona "hand of god" goal, but for the fans of US Soccer as well who were robbed of an opportunity to see a Semi-Final berth in World Cup 2002 when a German defender used his hand to save a goal.
US – Germany World Cup 2002 Quarterfinal Handball Video (Handball Footage at 2:11)
For now, FIFA is resisting the idea but don;t forget that the big three sports leagues in the United States, the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball, also initially resisted the idea. Will it happen? Who knows, should it happen? Well, there are some people in Ireland who certainly think so.

Rocky Magwood will set off on the Winds of Fortune this week when the Provisional Areas within the SC General Trawl Zone open to shrimp trawling Thursday, May 22. Mel Bell, Director of the Office of Fisheries Management for the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources Marine Resources Division announced the opening last week.
He said in a memo that the opening was based on their assessment of how things are looking related to white shrimp along the coast.
He's captaining his uncle Wayne Magwood's boat for the season after the devastating loss of his boat Lady Eva. The boat began taking on water late last year at her slip in Shem Creek. She later sank while being towed to Georgia for repairs.
Magwood is a fourth-generation shrimper, whose family's bloodstream is filled with the salt water of Charleston's harbor. His father Skipper passed away when Rocky was just 16. He had a heart attack while shrimping off St. Augustine.
From that day forward his uncle Wayne filled in as a father figure. Three days after the funeral he went with Wayne to pick up a boat. That boat happened to be The Winds of Fortune.
He has owned a shrimp boat since he was 13 years old. And even after last year's unsuccessful shrimp season and the sinking of his own boat, he's still going at it.
Rocky said he came to the realization the other night that he's going to keep on shrimping despite declining success. "We've made a lot of money on this boat. I can't see giving that up now because the seasons haven't been good," he said.
He's working on getting his 100 Ton license and he's not leaving the creek that his family helped build.
"The ocean...that's what I do. I'm dedicated to shrimping. I can't imagine doing anything else. I can't imagine not one Magwood owning a shrimp boat," he said.
South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (DNR) biologist Larry DeLancey said the regular season will open very soon. Once open, shrimpers must operate only from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m.
DeLancey and other biologists check local waters consistently in the weeks leading up to shrimping season to ensure the shrimp are there for harvest.
The late cold has slowed the crop.
But with federal waters open for shrimping, Magwood has taken a few chances to drop the nets. Some trips are successful, others not so much. Last week, he managed a couple hundred-pound hauls.
Magwood said he is starting to see signs of stuff way off shore. "Hopefully, it's going to be a decent season." He said DNR biologists are seeing good signs as Magwood's Seafood is slowly starting to open now as shrimp are available. Customers are encouraged to call ahead for shrimp orders. As soon as shrimping season officially begins, both Magwood's Seafood and Geechee Seafood will be open in full swing.
Geechee Seafood is located at 248 Magwood Lane in the Old Village. Call ahead at 843-860-7046.
Magwood's Seafood is located at 110 Haddrell Street in the Old Village. Call ahead at 843-884-3352.
Visit www.dnr.sc.gov/licenses/pdf/trawlingfy2014.pdf to see maps on pages 9-11. Bowed out areas with cross hatching are provisional areas beyond three miles off Charleston jetties for instance.

Deal held the attention of DFES kindergarteners during her March 26 visit with her enthusiastic interpretation of the children's book Who I'd Like to Be and left copies of the book for the school library.
So far she has visited 100 counties and 170 schools during her campaign to support the governor's Read Across Georgia initiative with the goal of emphasizing to parents, teachers and mentors the importance of being proficient in reading.
Deal said the governor's goal is to have all of Georgia's children reading on grade level by third grade.
Among those who came to the elementary school for the first lady's visit were Jones County Board of Education members Deloras Moon, Alfred Pitts, and Chairman Ginger Bailey.

The Southeast Michigan Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation program is a six (6) month residential rehabilitation program that provides services in the area of substance addiction. The spiritually based work therapy program affords the men the opportunity for recovery within a Christian atmosphere, offering friendship, encouragement and spiritual motivation, a compulsion to help the men as an expression of Divine Love. The ultimate aim of rehabilitation is the re-entry of beneficiaries into society as functional and productive citizens.
Other services provided include, Individual & Group Counseling, Christian education & Guidance, Chemical Dependency Education, Domestic Violence Intervention Program, Relapse Prevention Education, Anger Management Education, Bible Study, and Community Re-Entry/ Outreach Program.
The Five Level Program provides a comprehensive holistic service that meets the physical, social & spiritual regeneration of men with substance abuse problems.
Interactive journals are the framework of the program. The journals provide organization & structure to the program that help beneficiaries stay focused on important issues of their life and develop a personal plan for success.
Beneficiaries are assigned journals for each level. Each level is measured by completion of specific goals and objectives. Advancement to the next level will depend on completion of all requirements of the beneficiary's current level.
The overall result of our program delivery is gratifying. From October 2008 through October 2009, a total of 180 Beneficiaries were rehabilitated from chemical dependency, providing hope and compassion to the less fortunate substance abusers in our community. The 180 beneficiaries who successfully completed the 180 days program translate into 32,400 days of freedom from substance abuse.
The growing of our program is gaining in both public awareness within other service providers throughout the metropolitan area, as indicated by the increasing number of referrals from other agencies.
The current scale of the program is impressive. Equally important is the quality care offered to each beneficiary. Every beneficiary admitted to our program receives a continuing supportive social services and referrals through the office of the Post Completion Counselor.
Admission to the program is Monday-Friday, 8:00 to 11:30 AM. Applicants must have a current Michigan State ID or Driver's License & a social security card.
Thank you and God Bless,
Harrison U. Igwe, MPA, MA, CAADC, Ph.DDirector of Program

Comments: I use the Babolat Club Line Blue 6 Pack Bag and absolutely love it!! Just switched to Babolat and have
had a tremendous 2012 year with it!
From: Noah, 2/12
Comments: Just purchased the blue, 6-pack bag yesterday. Racquets and all my gear (extra clothes,
balls, etc) fit perfectly with room to spare. The bag is very lightweight, which is one of the reasons I purchased it - very easy on
the shoulders and back. Single shoulder sling strap works better than the two-strap system found on most bags. Very well made
and sharp looking too! I highly recommend it.
From: Cathy, 12/11
Comments: I love this ace pack. It is not too heavy and not too light. I think it is perfect for a normal
tennis practice.
From: Eddie, 11/11
Comments: I love my 12 pack bag. The design is amazing and it carries all 8 of my racquets (2 Babolat
AeroPro Drives, one Babolat Pure Storm GT Team 2009, 2 Babolat Pure Storm GT Tour 2011, one Head MicroGel Extreme Pro MP,
and my new pair of Wilson BLX Six.One Tour racquets) and also carries a lot of extra gear like shoes, socks and clothes and even a
660 string reel. Anyways, you better not leave it in the sun because it gets hot because of the black interiors. I give this bag a 10!
From: Alfonso, 9/11
Comments: I bought two bags to check out for my 11 year old son - the Babolat 9-pack Team and the 12
pack Club Line. We were looking for a bag that would hold 2 racquets, and some other stuff, not too big but roomy enough.
Even though the Team Line bag looks better and is sturdier and seems like of a higher quality, it was extremely uncomfortable
and even painful to carry on the back because of the wires that hold the shape of the bag being too stiff and hard. My son couldn't
wait to take it off (and he is tall and strong). After trying the Club Line 6-pack bag we were very impressed: good quality, light,
very roomy with three compartments, very comfortable to carry on the back. It would be nice if it also had a handle on the top and
at least one thermal compartment, like the Team Line bag does, but it's ok, we'll just have to be careful not to leave it in the car
during hot and freezing months.
From: Ilona, 9/11
Comments: Recently I bought the 6 pack bag off this line, and I love it! It holds ALL of my things, literally
about 30 tennis balls until I get a hopper, and after? It'll hold several sets of clothes, shoes, 2-3 tennis racquets for sure, and the
front pocket for my small accessories is perfect. I always come with my wallet, iPod, phone, and keys. However I would suggest
when you set your bag down, make sure the small compartment is facing away from the sun. As it's black, and attracts a lot of
heat so it could heat up your electronics substantially. Overall I would give this bag a 9/10!
From: Brendan, O'Fallon, Missouri, 7/11
Comments: This Backpack is way to small to hold shoes or anything that is that size that you need to go
to the courts. I am returning it.
From: Tim. 5/11
Comments: The Backpack Bag actually isn't as bad as I initially found it. Sure, rainy days aren't the best of
times to use it (I use a swiss backpack for such days) for school or work, but it holds well. After several months with it, and with
school, clubs, actual tennis, camping, and etc, it really isn't that bad a bag. Again, this isn't rain's best friend, so water easily gets
inside this bag, so no laptops, no mp3's, mp4's, tablets, books, or anything else that will tarnish when soaked. If you are looking
for an all-purpose bag, go to swiss, this back pack is meant solely for tennis and does that job admirably, I've fit in textbooks,
with tennis rackets (2), 2 cans of tennis balls, some drinks, wallet, phone, extra shirts, a pair of shoes, you name it (under
common-sense logic). It made me look like a total nerd at school, but it can fit a decent number of items, say, 2 rackets, a couple
shirt (sweatbands included), drinks, say 4 drinks, and a pair of shoes.
From: Anon, USA, 08/10
Comments: The 6 pack is a very high quality racquet bag for its price. However, it's a rather small
racquet bag. It only fits 6 frames and that's it. The side zipper pocket is rather smallish too.
From: Jack, MD, USA, 07/10
Comments: Does the six pack have that thing where you put it on your shoulder to carry it?
From: Monty, Australia. 6/10
(There is a shoulder strap but the bag does not have backpack straps. -- TW Staff)

The Water Missions International seventh annual Walk for Water in Charleston raised more than $190,000 on March 23 in conjunction with World Water Day. Funds contributed from the event will allow the nonprofit organization to provide safe water and sanitation solutions to more than 19,000 people in developing countries and disaster areas.
The walk in downtown Charleston inspired more than 1,800 participants from all over South Carolina and surrounding states to experience the daily trek women and children in developing countries make every day to collect water that is unsafe for human consumption. Participants were invited to carry buckets filled with dirty water halfway through the walk. At the end of the walk, the dirty water was then filtered through the organization's Living Water Treatment System (LWTS), the primary treatment tool used in safe water solutions.
Team "Heart of the Lion" raised the most funds out of 130 teams, contributing more than $17,000. The team was formed in memory of slain teenager Marley Lion, whose life infused energy and love into everyone he met. Now, lives will continue to be transformed by the gift of safe water in his honor.
"'The Heart of the Lion' team was able to help our family beautifully honor our Marley Lion's great love of life by giving the gift of life and health to others," said Elizabeth Paige, mother of Marley Lion. "We could see our son's spirit reflected in many during the 2013 Walk for Water - his outgoing friendliness in the smiles of the walkers, his solid courage in the Kenyans leading the walk, his contagious joy in the laughter of the children and his amazing strength in the youth proudly carrying their bucket of water without complaint."
Notably, the inaugural 'Marley Lion Spirit Award' was presented at this year's walk, in honor of Lion. The award recognizes a passionate participant in the Walk for Water and an advocate fighting for the global water crisis. This year's award was presented to Mia Llamas, an 8-year-old girl who asked friends to donate to Water Missions International in lieu of presents for her birthday. She also held fundraisers in her hometown of Galax, Va., before traveling with her family to the event.
"Every year we continue to be amazed by the outpouring of community support," said Brittany Fogle, special events coordinator at Water Missions International. "We could not fulfill our mission if we did not have passionate sponsors and advocates for our organization and our cause."

Our daughter's middle name is Alyssa after you. We always thought is was a beautiful name. As for your son's name… we think Frederick Matthew has a very regal sound to it. Of course, for the first years of his life, he'll most likely be Freddy to most people. So congrats and we hope you have an easy delivery. God Bless!
Hi webmaster and commenters ! The page was absolutely wonderful! Lots of great know-how and creative thoughts, both of which we all need! Keep 'em coming. you all do such a really good job at such Concepts. can't tell you how much I appreciate all you do!
Hey Alyssa,
My wife and I have a soon-to-be 3 year old who I got to name. Being Italian I originally wanted Dacenio Anthony. But that was a lil to traditional for my Irish/German wife. So I shortened it to Dace Anthony. We love it because it is a very unique name. She is currently expecting and we will find out next week what we are having. Although she gets to name our next child I have stressed that I like Natalie Alyssa after my two favorite actresses growing up, Natalie Wood and yourself. BEST OF LUCK and enjoy every second.

Tuesday, January 12, 2010
Ah, remember the good old days when bread came out of a plastic bag with a twist-tie seal, soft, malleable and glaringly white, already sliced for your ease, comfort and speed? Open the bag and breath in all that bready goodness, reach in your kid-sized hand and grab a couple of slices and the making of a meal is yours for the taking. To toast or not to toast, that was the biggest dilemma. Mom rarely worried about the health benefits – or lack thereof – it's hard even to remember if wheat bread could be found on our local Florida supermarket shelf, and the concept of gourmet anything never crossed her mind. White sandwich bread was simply a pantry staple for our Space Age modern family in the 1960's, something so simple to use that even a kindergartener could make his or her own lunch, much to our mother's delight. As long as a jar of peanut butter could be found in the cupboard and a jar of grape jelly – in a collectible Flintstones jar that could be turned into a juice glass – was wedged in next to the ketchup bottle in the refrigerator, something wholesome, something wonderfully yummy could be made by even the youngest one of us.
When we were old enough and had permission to use the kitchen appliances, we developed our culinary skills to turn that plain old sandwich into a hot meal. One day, you may just want the chewy resistance of the untoasted, that satisfying sensation of teeth sinking into fluffy, tender white bread, the delicate pliancy, the cloud-like airiness giving way to delightfully pasty, stick-to-the-roof-of-your-mouth denseness that only highlighted the peanut butter or salami encased within the two slices of white and prolonged the pleasure, yet one day you may take it upon yourself to pop that bread into the toaster and, abracadabra, transform this otherwise ordinary ingredient right before your very eyes. Golden and aromatic, crispy and suddenly savory, adding a new dimension, a complexity to the otherwise simple and homely: the once sticky peanut butter would melt and ooze smooth and hot onto your tongue, or butter the outside and fry it to create the perfect grilled cheese sandwich. Plain old white sandwich bread was pure magic. White bread was my tabula rasa, my artist's palette on which I could create a multitude of exotic, experimental gustatory sensations, blending the salty and the sweet, the nutty and the fruity. It was all we had back then, but alongside a glass of Grape Koolaid, it was my own private culinary institute, the beginnings of my fascination with food.
My sons, on the other hand, have been raised in France and Italy where white sandwich bread is reserved for reliving mom's American experience: the occasional grilled cheese treat, utterly fascinating to their friends, or a peanut butter sandwich when absolutely nothing else will do. France and Italy, lands of la boulangerie, la panetteria, where a trip is made each and every day for a fresh loaf, where minutes are spent breathing in the heady aroma of yeast and flour and fresh-from-the-oven breads and admiring the amazing selection, the ciabattas and fougasses, the baguettes and the miches, with cheese or olives or walnuts or whole grains, the large loaves bought by the kilo or the fine thin long flûtes carried home cradled like a delicate prize jewel or rich viennoise and brioche as one stands in line, coins clinking in hand, waiting to buy today's perfect bread. How to choose? Each one with their own personality, their own texture, their own unique flavor. Rip off a chunk on the walk home from the bakery and bite into the warm, dense bread, the crisp crust, the perfect crumb. How can one ever turn back again to the old, plain, homey white sandwich loaf?
I have grown up a lot over the years. My gastronomically sheltered life has been opened to a world of visions, flavors and foods I had never before dreamed of. My lifestyle has been transformed to include the daily trips to market and bakery, filling up my basket with fresh fruits, greens, breads I never knew existed and my daily meal planning includes dishes that were once over-the-top exotic and are now ordinary fare. Yet what is new and surprising to this Florida girl is everyday normal to my European sons. And these boys' expectations of what is placed before them on the table are high! They both – along with their French father – are bread fiends. Bread to sop up sauces, bread as a host to a variety of cheeses, bread for tearing off chunks and shoving in the mouth as they walk through the kitchen, bread as snack and bread to stave off hunger. Bread is a way of life, sustenance, the heart and soul of their culture. And as I stand in the kitchen and blend yeast and warm water, spoon in flour, knead and shape each and every loaf, as I pull the steaming, fragrant loaves from the oven and slide them onto the wooden cutting board and lay the bread knife alongside this princely offering, I find myself utterly amazed at how far I have come from those girlhood days of store-bought white bread sitting on the counter next to a simple jar of peanut butter and slices of plastic-wrapped cheese slices, our manna, our very first step into the world of bread.
A stunning focaccia, yes another focaccia, my boys' favorite of all, studded with tangy green olives and gorgeous sun-dried tomatoes, luxurious, delicately nutty pine nuts offering a crunchy bite and a dusting of freshly grated Parmesan cheese adding a salty, cheesy finale to this dense, hearty loaf. The basic Olive Oil Dough is from my new favorite cookbook Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day by the brilliant Zoë François and Jeff Hertzberg, M.D.
This focaccia is my offering this week to Yeastspotting, a weekly yeast-only event created and hosted by my friend Susan of Wild Yeast.
As you remember, I received a fabulous Pay It Forward Package from Sophie of Sophie's Foodiefiles. Along with receiving a box filled with goodies came a set of rules which each recipient in their turn must adhere to: we must send out 3 Pay It Forward Packages to 3 bloggers (or non-bloggers) in turn. Well, I made the announcement and 9 people let me know that they wanted to play along. So I assigned each one of these excited people a number, wrote the numbers on pieces of paper (equal size, equal shape) and tossed them onto my half-asleep son's bed as he lay struggling to wake up in the room's half-darkness. He blindly groped for and grabbed 3 slips of paper and handed them to me and I am now revealing the names of the 3 people who will receive packages from me! Once you see your name here, simply send me an e-mail (to jamieannschler(at)gmail(dot)com) with your home address and you'll be receiving your gift box from Nantes within the year – okay I am sure you won't have to wait an entire year, but them's the rules! Once you receive the box I send, you must let me know by e-mail that you have received the box, then turn around, announce it on your blog and select – and send to – 3 other people. Got it? Okay, here are the 3 (I am discovering this now as I write!):
1) Katrina (I don't know your blog)
2) Pam of The Cooking Ninja
3) Simone of Junglefrog Cooking
Please contact me within the next week to let me know you've seen this.
And don't forget to join me for Bread Baking Day #26! Bake Bread for my Birthday Party!
I prepared the Olive Oil Dough here using the following ingredients:
2 ¾ cup (650 ml) lukewarm water
¼ cup (50 ml) extra virgin olive oil
1 ½ Tbs (15 g) active dry yeast
1 ½ Tbs salt
1 Tbs sugar
6 ½ cups (975 g) flour (I used read flour type 55, you can use all-purpose)
Combine the yeast, salt and sugar in a very large mixing bowl or a lidded (not air-tight) food container. Add the olive oil and the lukewarm water.
Stir in the flour with a wooden spoon (although you can use a food processor with a dough attachment or a heavy-duty standing mixer with a dough hook) until completely blended. If you have trouble getting the last bit of flour to blend in you can use your wet hands.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap (not air tight) and allow to stand at room temperature for 2 hours, until the dough has risen and then collapses or flattens on top.
The dough can now be used immediately or stored in the bowl covered with plastic wrap or a lidded (not air tight) container for up to 2 weeks. It is easier to work with when chilled.
For the Olive Sun-Dried Tomato Pine Nut Focaccia:
1 lb (500 g) / a grapefruit-sized piece of the Olive Oil Dough *
¼ cup green olives, drained and sliced
5 – 6 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and patted with paper towels, sliced into slivers and halved
2 – 3 Tbs pine nuts
½ tsp dried basils
Olive oil
Freshly grated Parmesan Cheese, a couple of tablespoons
* My boys prefer their focaccia thicker, denser and chewier than the traditional thinner, crustier loaf so I used a bit more dough. As you like.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a floured work surface and flouring the surface of the dough, roll out the dough into a rough rectangle about ½-inch (1 cm) thick. Sprinkle the sliced olives and tomatoes as well as the pine nuts and dried basil evenly all over the surface of the dough. Roll up jelly-roll style.
Curl the log around onto itself and press together into a circle then shape and press into a ball. With the seamed side down on the work surface, roll the dough out into a large, flat loaf, as large and in any shape you like, but traditionally it is rolled out to a thickness of ½ inch (1 cm) in roughly an oval shape.
Carefully lift the dough and transfer it onto a parchment-lined baking tray or cookie sheet, pressing back into shape if it shrinks. Using a sharp knife dipped in flour, make slits in the dough then pull apart the slits to shape them into large holes, flouring your hands as needed.
Brush the surface with olive oil and sprinkle the Parmesan liberally and evenly over the surface of the dough.
Bake the focaccia in the preheated oven for 20 – 30 minutes, depending on the thickness of the loaf, until the top is golden and crusty and the bottom is golden.
Remove from the oven onto a cutting board and serve warm.
This focaccia is fantastic! The dough does, indeed, literally take 5 minutes to mix together, so easy and simple! Putting together this focaccia was just as simple and fast. My boys just love olive bread and I decided to add the sun-dried tomatoes for a little tang and zing, the pine nuts for the crunch as well as the nuttiness and although I usually sprinkle the top of focaccia with coarse salt I thought the Parmesan was perfect with the Italian list of ingredients. The bread was perfect all the way through, a great crust and a dense, chewy yet airy, light crumb inside. Fantastic!

I love that bb5 book too. Though I have never made foccacia and this just looks so so beautful and yumm. Love those olives which are almost bulging out.
I love white bread , don't use that much maybe once in three month. White bread alwaus reminds me of back home. We only had white when i was there, that is the only bread which was available ( i am talking decades ago)

Fantastic focaccia recipe! Copying now.
There are some things you just have to use that old fashioned white bread for: grilled cheese and pb&j sandwiches. Not much else though.
We are a pretty bread savvy nation, I think. Most of us prefer the flavors of whole wheat and grain breads.

Jamie, that is stunning bread, and I love olives in so many things (hubby does not :(, but that is okay)
The pic with the bread being squeezed reminds me of my sister, who insists on squeezing loaves of bread beyond repair in her quest for freshness :)
Too bad she does not bake huh?

living in germany for the past 16/7 years i am spoiled for choice when it comes to bread. i do not like the white sandwich bread - i know call me a bread snob - but once you have gone the European way with bread you never want to return to the other one!
- January 12, 2010 at 11:21 PM
- Jamie said...
@doggybloggy - Christo, the deadline for baking and posting your bread for BBD #26 is February 1st so you still have plenty of time!

OK, can I come to YOUR house for a week to get over my yeast-o-phobia? Please?? And can we make and eat lots of this DROP DEAD GORGEOUS focaccia?? :)
Funny how, even after you've grown up/moved countries/learnt to appreciate artisinal foods, there are some things filled with like NO nutritional value at all that you still crave?? I know I have a few of those skeletons rattling around my closet...!
- January 13, 2010 at 6:51 AM

@Jeanne - YES! and Oh, yeah, baby! You should see what I eat when I go back home to Florida!

Wegmans makes an olive bread in this shape and I've always wondered how they do it - this is awesome! I love the addition of pine nuts too!

Jamie, you have a gift for making a white bread sandwich sound like the most amazing thing in the world! That's why I love reading :D

So delicious! I could eat that whole loaf.
(I was raised by wolves, I mean hippies, so never saw the wonders of sliced bread, cheese slices, and Kraft peanut butter until later childhood. Such a revelation! Bread that came pre-sliced - who knew?)

That bread is just beautiful!

I was a weird kid and actually like whole wheat. Whole wheat for pb&j with chips on the side was my fav quick lunch. These days, focaccia like this looks so much better! The olives, tomatoes, and nuts sound great in this.
