|If it is not correct it should die a quiet death not be repeated over and over again which it has been in some form or other for almost 40 years now. People don't know it is not true and assume the statements are correct .
Strange I don't find anything funny about the death of Lincoln or the death of Kennedy which I remember quite well. I was a freshman in college and know exactly where I was standing and even what I was wearing the moment the guys came in to the student union and told me the President has been shot.

Bridges to the Future
Bringing new perspectives to Denver about the world's most pressing issues
Each year, DU chooses a theme and schedules a series of lectures and community events that address that topic. All the events are free and open to the community.
2014 – 2015 Theme: Transforming Media: New Realities of the Digital Age
In academic year 2014-15, Bridges to the Future is exploring the cultural shift of the digital revolution on multiple facets of our daily lives. Everything from where we get our news to our sense of community is evolving. Are we directing technology or is it directing us?
Tuesday, April 28, 7 p.m. – Always On: Social Media as Social Programming
Click here to watch live-streaming of the event.
Keynote Speaker: Douglas Rushkoff
Author of Present Shock: When Everything Happens Now, as well as a dozen other best-selling books on media, technology and culture, international lecturer and professor of media theory and digital economics at CUNY/Queens
With social media providing instant updates on news, personal stories and current trends, we are "always on" and continually reacting to updates. So has social media programmed us? Do we craft our thinking, reactions and relationships based on our social media interaction? Join the discussion about how social media has become social programming.
This event is free and open to the public.
Please RSVP, or call (303) 871-2357
Register early as space is limited.

We just got a puppy, and he gets walked at least 5-6 times a day. That adds up, as does running up and down the stairs doing laundry, parking a distance from your destination and walking, and running to all the bathrooms because you're drinking your water! Never give up, it all counts
My best friend who is a track and cross country runner told me about doing the Lying Abduction (or Adduction) exercise while you read. But you can do it while watching TV as well. I love doing this because then I feel more time-efficient!

Allan Kozinn, wrote in today's New York Times: "Winning the Chopin Competition early in his career did not stop the pianist Garrick Ohlsson from insisting on musical challenges from styles and periods outside his specialty...At the moment Mr. Ohlsson has Liszt on his mind, mainly because this season includes the bicentenary of Liszt's birth, though he has been known to mine the Liszt catalog in nonanniversary years too. In the 1998-99 season he played a three-concert series at Lincoln Center juxtaposing Liszt with Beethoven, Bach and Schubert. In one installment he undertook the draining feat of pairing Liszt's monumental B minor Sonata with Bach's "Goldberg" Variations. He revisits the sonata next Sunday as part of a Liszt recital at the 92nd Street Y..."

Welcome to 92nd Street Y's new fall season.
As always, this time of year generates excitement and anticipation. This fall, we are especially energized by 92nd Street Y's new look, designed to take us into the future and communicate to people around the world what you already know: that 92Y is "An Open Door to Extraordinary Worlds." Today, we also have wide open "virtual doors" so that people can experience 92Y wherever they are, whether it's through our new website or our blog, on Facebook or Twitter, or on YouTube, iTunesU, Fora.tv or Amazon.
Our mission, of course, remains the same: to enrich lives, create community and elevate humanity, all through the lens of our Jewish values, such as learning and self-improvement, family, the joy of life and giving back to the community. To achieve that mission, we offer an extraordinary breadth and depth of programming in the arts, education, health and wellness, and Jewish life to people of all ages, faiths, races, backgrounds and perspectives.
As a member of this very special community of communities, I am humbled and inspired by the many remarkable personal and communal journeys I have witnessed here at 92Y:

We know there have been a lot of stories in the media over the last couple of days about our evening at 92Y with Deborah Solomon and Steve Martin and our decision to offer gift certificates to our audience.
Put simply, we didn't handle this situation as well as we could have done.
We received numerous complaints from audience members about how the interview was conducted and responded quickly by offering the gift certificates. Although our gesture was made out of respect for our patrons and with the best of intentions, we know now that it came across to many as a criticism of our guests. We deeply apologize for this.
We realize now that offering a refund, especially without consulting with our guests who graciously gave of their time, was disrespectful. We have learned our lesson, and this will not happen again.
For 136 years, 92Y has been committed to supporting the arts and providing lectures and programs that educate and entertain. We deeply value our partnerships with those who help us in our mission.

Michael Jordan. Roger Federer. Muhammed Ali. Tiger Woods.
Lin Dan could join the echelons of sporting greats with a victory on August 5 in Wembley Arena. Regardless of badminton's stigma as a minority sport – especially in Europe, Lin Dan's achievements transcend his sport with the magnitude of his success. A superstar in his native China, he is already a 4-time world champion and reigning Olympic champion but he plays for something that no player before him can boast nor claim.
Retaining his Olympic title will make him an immortal of the sport and he will become the benchmark of what can be achieved within badminton. His victory in Beijing four years ago was shrouded in controversy before the Olympics began. A bust-up with his national coach; Ji Xinpeng had fans and media questioning his selection for the 2008 Olympics.
The bust-up was over practice matches and Lin Dan's thirst for success, even in training. His attitude and outbursts divided fans of the sport, with some claiming he was simply spoiled in China, although he was revered as a sporting superstar for a population of over one and a half billion.
His "bad boy" status within the game has always received mixed appraisals but in Beijing four years ago, he produced one of the single greatest performances the sport had ever seen. He played with arrogance and with an aura of the best player in the world, in his home nation with almost a quarter of the world's population hoping for a Chinese gold.
What he provided in the final was an absolute master class. All of his antics off the court forgotten for one night when he destroyed Lee Chong Wei 21-12, 21-8 in the most one-sided of their 29 matches. He could have gone into the second game interval 11-0 up if not for a careless cross net shot clipping the cord.
His salute upon victory to all four corners of the capacity stadium was a symbol of being a solider of his nation, China but also for the crowd to accept who he was – a player that thrives on success. He would do anything to succeed whether it was the right or wrong way to conduct himself.
Immortality would be assured with a gold medal in London but defeat would paint a different picture. It is known that anyone could beat any other person on any given day. Even the great Lin Dan is mortal and could be defeated. Defeat would open up the subject of who is the greatest player in the world. Rightly or wrongly, at this point, if the Malaysian Lee Chong Wei was to win gold in London, then he too would have to be considered.
Recent times have seen a change in Lin Dan. Instead of rackets or a punch being thrown, his shirt has been thrown into the crowd, for example at the Thomas Cup in May or at Beijing four years previously. The calming influence of his wife, Xie Xingfang has been credited with his change in temperament.
Lin Dan will make the trip to Shaoshan to pray for the legendary Chinese leader – Mao Zedong's blessing. In 2004, before the Athens Olympics, he took this trip for granted, choosing to remain in the team bus playing cards. He then promptly lost in the opening round. Learning this valuable lesson, he is now one of the first Chinese Olympians to seek the blessing of Mao Zedong.
Some feel it is perhaps a blessing to have such a player in our lifetimes, whilst others claim he is a spoilt child blessed with a gift. He will arrive in London with countless nicknames, one half of the "Condor Couple" with Xie Xingfang, "Super Dan", Lieutenant Colonel in the People's Liberation Army, world number 1 and also favourite for the title in London.
His only wish is for one name, 2012 Olympic Champion.
Immortality will follow soon after.

Former Marine Police Headquarters Compound (Tsim Sha Tsui Hill, Tsim Sha Tsui)
The former Marine Police Headquarters was constructed in 1884, comprises a main building, a stable block and signal tower (commonly known as Round House). The compound has been occupied by the Marine Police since its establishment until 1996, except for the Japanese Occupation (1941-1945) when it was used as a base by the Japanese navy. The main building was originally a two-storey structure to which was added an extra storey in the 1920s. The south-east and south-west wings of the main building served as married quarters. During the Japanese Occupation Period, extensive underground tunnels were constructed beneath the lawn but after World War II, in view of public safety, these tunnels were blocked and the lawn was re-turfed. The Signal Tower is the most unique building within the compound and was constructed to provide time signals to ships in the harbour. Its use diminished in 1907 when the time ball apparatus was removed to Signal Hill. Being one of the oldest surviving government buildings in Hong Kong, the former Marine Police Headquarters Compound was declared a monument in 1994.

|Eaton's Neck, NY
Description: Eatons Neck received its name from one Theophilus Eaton, who arrived in America from London in 1639 and seven years later purchased the land that now bears his name from the Matinecock tribe. A part-time surveyor named Joshua Hartt noted in 1795 that the area included a great reef of rocks which run off into the sound more than a half a mile and are very dangerous to shipping, and added, Hereabouts, it is expected a lighthouse will be built for the advantage of seamen.
Hartt was correct, as the seventy-three-foot-tall Eatons Neck Lighthouse was completed in 1799 at a cost of $9,750. The contract stipulated a payment schedule of $5,000 when the contract was signed, $2,000 when the first story beams are Laid, $2,000 when the Lanthorn is completed, and the final $750 when the described work is perfected. On March 14, 1798, Congress appropriated $13,250 for the building the lighthouse and fitting it up with the necessary supplies, and John and Joanna Gardiner sold the necessary ten-acre site to the government for $500 on June 16 of that year.
Just the second lighthouse ever built on Long Island Sound, Eatons Neck Lighthouse is a freestone tower described as standing on an eminence, about 73 feet high; the building is 50 feet more, and the total height, above the sea, is 126 feet. The tower stood 300 feet back from the high-water mark and was originally painted in black and white horizontal stripes. An 1854 Light List shows the tower was all white by that time. Built of hammer-dressed stone, the octagonal tower tapers from a diameter of eighteen feet at its base to ten feet at the lantern, while its walls shrink from a thickness of five feet, seven inches to twenty-one inches. Two windows adorn the western side of the lighthouse, three the towers eastern face, and a spiral wooden staircase originally provided access to the lantern room. A one-and-a-half-story keepers dwelling was linked to the southern side of the tower by a thirty-four-foot-long passageway.
John Squire was appointed as the first keeper on December 6, 1798, but he immediately refused the position. A week later, Thomas Burgher of New York City accepted the post, and the station became operational shortly after. Another of the early keepers of the lighthouse was John Gardiner, who provided the land for the lighthouse, and when he passed away in 1812 his son, John H. Gardiner, was appointed in his stead.
Rocks, extending northward and eastward from the point for three-quarters of a mile, have seen more shipwrecks than any other location on Long Islands northern shore. During just one storm in December 1811, at least sixty ships and most of their crew were lost on the rocks. A particularly bad shipwreck motivated residents to petition Congress to raise the towers height to seventy-three feet.
In 1837, a Lieutenant Blake inspected the station after receiving multiple complaints about the light. He found all the lamps defective, and reported: The keeper admitted that the lights were bad, and he was censured for keeping a bad light. The American Coast Pilot also joined in the complaints noting that most, if not all, the lamps of this house should have been condemned many years since; the light, for the most part, cannot be seen more than 7 or 8 miles. In 1838, a new Argand lamp/reflector combination, having twelve lamps and reflectors arranged around two circular tables, was installed in the lantern room. In 1857, after the tower had been remodeled and strengthened to support a larger lantern room, the illuminating apparatus was changed to a single third-order Fresnel lens fabricated by Henry Lepaute of Paris. Over a century later, the lens remains in service today, although it is now powered by an electric light instead of oil.
The next day, the scene was described by Joseph J. Comstock who was aboard a vessel searching for survivors: From Cranes Neck to Old Mans landing, twelve to fifteen miles east, including the deep bays adjacent, is covered with pieces of the wreck, among which I noticed her name among the siding, nearly in full length, large pieces of her guards, and portions of almost every part of the boat, all of which is mostly burned to coal. We found one of her quarter boats, from which three of the bodies now in our possession were taken; she is very slightly damaged.
On August 25, 1850, Keeper Benjamin Downing, who had been in charge of the lighthouse for seven years, sent the following to the president of the Life Saving Benevolent Association:
I have to inform you that an accident occurred here today, during the violent northeast storm which is now raging, that called for the use of the Life boat. About 9 o'clock I observed a small vessel coming round the head of the reef; I kept watch of her, and in the act of jibbing, coming into the bay, she capsized, and directly I saw two men on her bottom, the sea running very high, and breaking over her. I immediately sent off for help, when Mr. John Gardiner's workmen and others came with two yoke of oxen. I had the boat hauled down to the shore, but you may judge of my surprise when I inform you that I could not prevail upon one single person to go in the boat; and knowing that no time was to be lost, I got into the boat with only my son, a lad 16 years of age, and myself, lame with one arm. We pulled off in the trough of the sea until I got to the windward of the wreck, when I ran down before the wind, and succeeded in saving one of the men. The other undertook to swim ashore, and met a watery grave. Had he remained on the wreck, he would have been saved.
For their heroic efforts, the Life Saving Benevolent Association awarded Keeper Downing and his son silver medals and 100 dollars in cash. Keeper Downings medal carried the following inscription: Present to Benjamin Downing, who by his humane and courageous exertions, during a gale, saved the life of John Clark, from the bottom of the schooner Jane when upset in Long Island Sound, on the 25th August, 1850.
The parapet of the tower has been covered with cast-iron panels, and a cast-iron deck-plate put around the lantern. The wooden stairway in the tower has been replaced by iron steps and landings built inside of a cylindrical brick wall. Iron window frames and sashes were substituted for those of wood; an oil-room of brick provided with closets and shelves, built in connection with the tower; the passage-way between the tower and dwelling rebuilt. The keepers dwelling was also partially torn down, remodeled, and expanded at that time. After those renovations, the dwelling consisted of a kitchen, a pantry, two storerooms, three sitting rooms, and five bedrooms. The other structures at the station included a shop, a barn, a coal bin, and a fog signal building.
A steam siren fog signal was installed at the station in 1871, to help mariners navigate Long Island Sound and find the entrance to nearby Lloyds Harbor in thick weather. As it had to blow as much as 500 hours per year, the siren required a lot of fresh water, and a new well and cistern were added to help quench the signals thirst. A duplicate fog signal was added a year or so later to provide redundancy. On June 30, 1904, a first-class automatic siren, powered by two, thirteen-horsepower oil engines and housed in a new brick building, replaced the steam sirens.
The intensity of the light was increased on February 28, 1907, when the illuminant used in the lantern room was changed from oil to incandescent oil vapor.
The keepers dwelling was demolished in 1969, and eleven Coast Guard housing units were added to the station. Eatons Neck Lighthouse was also scheduled for demolition, but local activists went to work and succeeded in having the tower placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. The lighthouse continues to show a white light from its classic third-order Fresnel lens the only Fresnel lens in active use at a Long Island lighthouse. As Eatons Neck is an active Coast Guard station, the lighthouse and grounds are closed to the public.
Located on the grounds of the Coast Guard Station at the end of Lighthouse Road on Eaton's Neck, north of Asharoken and on Long Island's north shore. The lighthouse is owned by the Coast Guard. Grounds/tower closed.
The lighthouse is owned by the Coast Guard. Grounds/tower closed.
Notes from a friend:Kraig writes:
A sign near the lighthouse reads:On March 4th, 1798 Congress passed an authorization act to acquire this site for the purpose of marking the treacherous reef that lies off the north coast of Eatons Neck. Constructed at a cost of $9,250, it is the second oldest lighthouse on Long Island. The lighthouse was designed by John J. McComb Jr. who also designed Montauk and Cape Henry lighthouses. Eatons Neck lighthouse was completed and first lit in January 1799. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 3, 1973.

This Recipe is for a 2lb machine!February 18, 2013 By mlissy4u
Followed this recipe exactly. What I didn't notice until afterward was that this recipe is for a 2lb bread machine and nothing smaller. My machine must be for a 1.5lb machine. The bread came out really dense and mostly burnt crust. Oops!

A new staple in our home!January 21, 2013 By mrshsantos4
The flavor and texture of this bread is wonderful! My children (ages 3 & 5) are begging for more toast and sandwiches on my ""yummy bread machine bread"" :-) They are super picky eaters, so this is high praise, in deed. It isn't as heavy as some wheat breads are, it rose nicely and made my house smell amazing. This recipe is getting filed away for regular use!

Amazingly tasty and Fluffy Whole Wheat BreadOctober 20, 2012 By vnzdn
This is probably the first 100% fresh whole wheat flour bread that I've made with this recipe that has turned out so great! I highly recommend it to anyone. I made the flour at home from ground up whole wheat berries. I also used 3 TBSP of raw cow milk, and added 1 TBSP of honey, the scent when it was cooking was awesome! I also used grapeseed oil. It's the perfect consistency of dense and fluff - just perfect! FOR THE NEWBIES, because I was definitely one of those that always wanted others to really expand on what exactly they did because I was just clueless! Here's exactly what I did and how I did it: 1. I heated the water, milk, oil, honey and salt to 120 degrees F (Yes I used a thermometer for accuracy). Once these ingredients reached 120 degrees I added that to the breakmaker bowl. 2. Next I stirred together the dry ingredients (flour, sugar), and dumped them on top of the liquids. This whole thing should cover the wet ingredients so that you don't see any liquid. 3. Next I made an indentation in the dry ingredients using my fingers and put the yeast in there. 4. I have a Breadman TR444, and it doesn't have many fancy settings, so I just selected ""Whole Wheat"" and that was it and ""2.0"" for the size. **It took a good 3 hours and 40 some minutes to make. I really hope this helps everyone who may have some issues with this recipe, honestly, if you follow these instructions it should all work and you'll be amazed with the results (that is, if you enjoy whole wheat breads, if you're new to whole wheat, this will in time be your favorite recipe!)

So good my husband ate it!March 26, 2012 By bakergirlct
This loaf was delicious, easy to make, and so good that my husband, who is not a wheat bread fan, ate two slices voluntarily! The kids had it as an afternoon snack, coming home from school to a house filled with the fragrance of fresh bread. Wonderful!!!

Great sandwich breadJanuary 30, 2012 By KarenZee
New to breadmaking and to a Zojurushi Virtuoso bread machine, this is the first bread I made for my family. I used the basic wheat cycle. I followed the recipe exactly. Bread rose up beautifully making a perfect loaf for sandwiches. The texture is perfect and the loaf had a nice soft crust. It was easy to slice once completely cooled and received good reviews from my family. Will definately be making it again.

Great bread!January 29, 2012 By lmh12620
I made this 2 lb loaf with King Arthur White Wheat flour and a light crust setting with my machine's whole wheat setting. I like that it's whole wheat without being a heavy dense bread. I made no other substitutions Good flavor! Will definitely make again.

Going to attempt againJanuary 27, 2012 By WellDrick22
This looks like it should be an easy recipe. I tried doing it last night on my GE 2lb breadmaker and......it didn't work. :( Lots of dry flour in the canister but some level of rising - a really weird-looking blob. My second attempt is in production as I write this. I just read the other reviews and noticed where one person said the water added must be hot - I used room temperature H20. Although I read the recipe twice as I added the ingredients, I didn't see the part where it said ""hot water"", just the word ""water"". I must be getting senile in my young age. I don't have much experience using a breadmaker and I don't have a manual to consult. I used the whole wheat setting and it automatically cooked for 4 hours 35 minutes - I couldn't seem to set it for the requisite two hours only. I'll see how it goes this time. Should I fail (and even if I don't fail), I'll definitely switch to hot water. All my other ingredients including the yeast are fresh so I am hoping none of them are the culprits in my bread disaster. Thanks for the positive reviews and success stories - there may be hope for me yet!

No complaints here ! Everyone loved it!December 04, 2011 By iprogcnc
This is my second time making a bread machine loaf from scratch and this one was fantastic! I made sure I used fresh yeast like the lady said and it was perfect ( not to dense and heavy). The only substitute I made was to use three tablespoons of 1% milk instead of powered milk and mixed it with the warm water ( dry powdered milk at 7 to 8 bucks a box was a bit much to spend) I used to 2LB setting on the machine but next time I will go with a lighter crust or the A setting on a Breadman. Thanks for a great recipe!

Not just for the birds!!!March 15, 2011 By doodlebug0817
This recipe is great, I added about 2 tablespoons of honey to it as the last ingredient, pressed start on my machine and a little over two hours later i had the most delicious loaf of bread, it has a great texture and denseness ( not too dense and not too lite), great to slice, toast up or use for sandwiches. I give 5 big stars! And to the bird lady I think one of two things happened with your dough. Either you did not use hot water (first ingredient) it should be about 115 degrees, or your yeast was old and did not react, so your bread didn't rise and when it baked it turned into a small hard lump. Retry this recipe, hopefully you will become a believer yet!!!!!!

for the birds...literallyFebruary 18, 2011 By TKolo61
I took great care to follow this recipe, exactly as it was written. The dough was very dry, and the dough never rose. This two pound loaf is the size of a half pound loaf. It looks like a brick, I will feed it to the birds, I don't know if they will eat it. I had to give it one star, I wasn't allowed to give it NO stars.

Very GoodNovember 22, 2010 By snowqueen690
I made this in the bread machine last night. I set the machine on timer so that the bread would be warm and ready by the time I got up. It was a bit hard, I forgot to add the extra two tablespoons of water so it didn't knead exactly right, but it was still good. I am vegan so instead of dried milk, I used 1 cup of unsweetened soymilk, and made up the rest of the liquid with water.

add this one to the recipe boxNovember 10, 2010 By nobaker
I followed the recipe with these exceptions. canola oil, and replaced 1/4c flour with 1/8 c each of wheat germ and ground flax seed. I used King Arthur 100% Whole Wheat Flour in my Breadman Ultimate Plus bread machine on the whole wheat/light crust setting. I am terrible at baking, that's why I have a bread machine. I saw the good reviews with this recipe and decided to try it. This is the best recipe I've made. The loaf is dense enough to be hearty with just a slight sweetness, yet still light and airy enough to make a fabulous sandwich. Next time I'll try honey instead of brown sugar and applesauce instead of oil.

the best recipe for whole wheat bread in a machineJune 09, 2010 By heatherryanmorse
I loved this recipe. It is for a 2 pound bread machine. I have tried so many recipes and never have I gotten a bread this airy when using whole wheat flour. So many recipes are dense and have a low rise. This was fluffy and airy and yummy and full. I am very impressed. I did use 1/2 baking flour and 1/2 whole wheat flour because I was worried about it being too dense. Next time I will try it with just whole wheat and see how it fairs. Great recipe!

Great sandwich bread!March 02, 2010 By ameadows01
I followed the recipe as given, adding chopped cranberries and walnuts during the last knead cycle. The result was a beautiful, high rising loaf with a crunchy crust and a dense crumb. Great for toast and sandwiches. This will definitely be my go-to recipe for bread machine wheat bread. Thanks for a great recipe!

The best bread yet!!January 16, 2010 By YeeHawWatchthebirdie
This is a great bread. I did switch mine up a bit. I used a 1/4c of agave instead of brown sugar, and loaded in some ground flax and oat brand in the second need. I also cut the salt down a bit. Machine setting were for wheat bread, two lb loaf , and light setting. I also added some oats and flax to the top of the loaf. Came out perfect. Hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Now my favorite breadJune 08, 2009 By Babsbabbles
I followed some of the suggestions of the 1/10/09 reviewer. I substituted 1/4 c. of the flour with sesame seeds and chopped walnuts. I used canola oil instead of veg. oil. I selected light crust for this 2 lb loaf. And, oh my goodness, this bread is soooo good. It has a crusty crust, quite like artisan bread. Using brown sugar is much better than the molasses my other whole wheat bread recipe calls for.

My Weekly BreadJanuary 10, 2009 By Jay.Swizzle
This is the basic loaf of healthy bread that you should be making! I bake it on the weekends to use for 3 or 4 days fresh, keeping it in a sealed container on the cupboard. If I still have bread left after that time, I slice the remaining loaf into toaster-ready slices and put them in a sealable freezer bag for freezing (I like things as fresh as possible). I use the remaining slices from the freezer until I make a fresh loaf. That's just my system, and it seems to work for me (I'm single). A couple of notes on modifications and experimentation: For those concerned about sweeteners, I do a mixture of brown rice syrup and honey; I do not, however, change the amount (1/3 cup), so you may want to look at the equivalent of a liquid sweetener vs. the brown sugar. (Tip: Coat the inside of your measuring cup with cooking spray so that your honey or syrup pours out nicely.) I havent had a problem with how I do it, so I havent bothered with conversion concerns. Additions (in fairly small amounts) that I have used include milled flax seed, sesame seeds, wheat bran, and chopped walnuts. I usually dont use that final 1/4 cup of flour because I add these other ingredients. Im winging it a bit on these additions and I know baking is an exact science but thus far Ive had only wonderful loaves come out of my bread machine. And it beats store-bought bread for a range of reasons from saving a few bucks to being more in control of exactly what you put in your body (and in this case youre eating simple, really healthy ingredients).

Made with variations - Yum!October 14, 2008 By tacoheadjones
I got my bread machine at a yard sale for $5 and was tired of the wheat bread recipe in the enclosed book, so I found this one and wanted to try it. I have hypoglycemia so didn't want to use the brown sugar, so I used fructose instead and I didn't have any dried milk, so I left it out and it turned out fantastic! I also added about 1/4 cup of wheat germ and about 2 TBS of wheat gluten to add more texture, maybe that's what made it very chewy. Try it!

At the risk of sounding like a bumpkin, why do I see some bikes sold without pedals or at least pictured without pedals? Is there some kind of benefit to buying pedals separately? Do some people take their pedals off the bike when not in use, like they might take off their wheels or seat post?
Higher-end bikes are expected to be used with clipless pedals. However, there are several different standards for these pedals, and all of which have a different type of cleat that fits in them.
Most cyclists tend to stick with one of these standards across all of their bikes, so they don't have to have multiple sets of shoes. Thus higher-end bicycles typically are sold without pedals so that the customer can select the style of pedal that matches their existing shoes.
Because most of the high end bikes are sold without pedals.
Pedals are a totally personal matter. A rider is expected to buy pedals for the new bike or use pedals from an older bike. Especially in the MTB world this is more prevalent where the rider will either be riding clipless or flat pedals and there are tons of variations for each of the two types.
No. Never.

Imagine everyone is gathered together for a relaxing evening of snacks and television when gradually there is no way to avoid or ignore the odors being emitted by the otherwise happy family dog. Jokes abound but really what one wants is a solution to this problem, especially if it is ongoing.
Flatulence comes from an excess of gases in the intestinal tract. These gases may represent air that has been swallowed, gas produced in the biochemical process of digestion, gas diffusion from the bloodstream, or gases produced by the bacteria that populate the intestinal tract. Over 99% of the gases that pass from the intestinal tract are odorless; the gases with objectionable odors are typically those containing hydrogen sulfide.
Flatulence is a normal biological function. A surprising amount of air is swallowed with the simple act of eating and if this is not burped out, it must exit through the other end. The amount of air swallowed tends to be increased when dogs feel they must eat quickly or in the brachycephalic breeds who tend to breathe more by mouth rather than by nose. Swallowed air tends not to have objectionable odor.
The really stinky gases are produced by colon (large intestine) bacteria. Dietary fiber in pet food is not readily digestible by the pets own enzyme systems but is readily digested by the gas-producing bacteria of the colon. As these fibers are broken down, gases are produced. A diet heavy in fibers tends to favor these gas-producing organisms. The more supportive the intestinal environment, the more bacteria there will be and ultimately more gas will be produced.
The following are easy changes that can be made in the management of the pet:
Prescription Low Residue Diets
Changing to a low residue diet means that most of the nutrients of the food are digested and absorbed by the pet before they reach the colon where the gas-forming bacteria are. This means there will be less food for the gas-forming organisms which will ultimately mean fewer gas-forming organisms and less gas formed. Sometimes just going through a case and/or bag of such a low residue diet solves the problem and the pet can return to a regular food afterwards. If necessary, the therapeutic diet can become the pets regular food.
A carminative is a medication that reduces flatulence. There are an assortment of available products but unfortunately most are not helpful or not even labeled for animal use. Changing the diet and ruling out actual intestinal disease are of primary importance in addressing flatulence. If further therapy is needed, the following products have some basis to suspect they might work:
Yucca shidigera supplementationPresently this extract is labeled as a flavoring agent for pet food but it is also available as an oral supplement. Several studies have shown that it helps decrease the odor in flatulence.
Zinc Acetate supplementationZinc binds to sulfydryl compounds in flatulence ultimately serving to deodorize the gas.
Non-absorbable AntibioticsSuch antibiotics serve to kill the gas-forming bacteria of the colon and may be helpful as long as their use is not ongoing.
ProbioticsThere are many ineffective probiotics being marketed so it is important to use one that has been shown to actually contain live cultures and that its cultures actually withstand stomach digestion so as to populate the small intestine with beneficial bacteria. It is unknown if this type of product would really help in flatulence as it is asking a great deal for such bacteria to travel all the way to the colon and attempt to displace the gas-forming resident bacteria. Still, these are unlikely to be harmful and may be beneficial in other ways.
Activated charcoal tabletsNot likely to be effective as the charcoal binding sites are filled on the journey from mouth to colon and by the time the tablet sees the gas-forming large bowel bacteria, it has essentially been used up.
SimethiconeMay control the volume of gas produced but not the odor. It is an antifoaming agent that reduces gas bubbles.
Pancreatic Enzyme supplemenationIn the absence of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, it is unlikely that a patient would be helped by extra digestive enzymes. Further, this treatment is relatively expensive for something that only may be helpful.

"Ako, si Akihiro, si Daniel, everybody really works very hard to have what we have now. Like, you know, it's just not about the money, it's about like how you live your life here in the Philippines. If you're happy. And I think the three of us, we are really, really happy talaga here in the Philippines. With the work, binigyan kami ng bagong experience dito sa Pilipinas as an artista, not just as a model. Iba compared to modelling, di ba? So, I think that's one of the reasons why we decided to stay here in the Philippines," says Fabio Ide about himself and other Brapanese model-actors Akihiro Sato and Daniel Matsunaga.Photo: Erwin Santiago
Si Fabio Ide ang kauna-unahang Brazilian-Japanese, o Brapanese, model ng Mercator Model and Artist Management na dumating sa Pilipinas.
Kaya masasabing si Fabio ang nagbukas ng oportunidad para sa iba pang Brapanese models/actors—tulad nina Akihiro Sato, Hideo Muraoka, Daniel Matsunaga—para magkaroon ng career at pangalan sa Philippine showbiz and modelling industries.
Sabi ni Fabio sa PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal), "Siyempre, masaya ako!
"Kasi I was the first one to pumunta dito, tsaka pagdating dito, after, I called si Akihiro, si Daniel...
"Para, 'O, dapat kayo pumunta dito kasi masaya dito tsaka madami work!'
"And then siyempre, masaya. I'm really...proud ako to be part of Mercator.
"I've been with them for almost six years na pala, so matagal na talaga, di ba?
"And then si Jonas [Gaffud, Mercator head], yung manager ko, I really, really, you know...
"I have no words to express how happy I am with him as a manager, as a friend also.
"Yung mga staff ng Mercator, lahat really professional talaga.
"They really work hard to put the name of the agency up and the name of the artistas."
Sabi pa ni Fabio, "I was the first one to arrive [here in the Philippines].
"I arrived as a model and then, now, I became an artista, di ba?
"So, I can't complain. I'm really happy with all the blessings and everything.

This is so interesting. I never realized that humans were the only creatures who actually cry.
Heidi (Dita)
Hi Yasha, I thought so too! I study linguistics and the topic of language comes up, but this point of view is much more dividing because, like it mentions, different animals have advanced communication systems. (However, I'm pretty sure animals don't have ways or needs to talk about the past or future. Ha!) I once also took an emotions class, but we didn't touch on this aspect of tears in humans.

|SY 2016 - 2017 Engineering/Architecture CHARLIE CORN SCHOLARSHIP
Hafa Adai,
On behalf of all of our members, we welcome you to the Guam Post of the Society of American Military Engineers. Currently, our Post is comprised of nearly 100 individual members, approximately 40 Sustaining Member companies and a total membership of approximately 250 persons with a mixture of active duty, civil service, students, architects, engineers, and contractor personnel.
Located nearly 3,000 miles west of Hawaii, Guam boasts the westernmost point of U.S. soil. That very fact has once again has raised the strategic importance of Guam to our National Defense. The military investment is rising and the future should be exciting and full of challenges for the Military engineering community!
The Guam Post is active in the local community and in the local economy. Through our Charlie Corn Scholarships, we offer a total of $15,000-20,000 in scholarships each year to benefit local (Guam and the CNMI) students interested in architecture or engineering. Our members are closely connected with the Guam Chamber of Commerce, Guam Contractor's Association, Guam Society of Professional Engineers, Rotary, and many other agencies and organizations on the island.
Although DoD budgets are shrinking, we believe exciting times lie ahead for Guam and the Guam Post. As the place "where America's day begins," Guam plays a pivotal role in the security and defense of U.S. interests in the Pacific. From Andersen Air Force Base in the north to the Naval Base complex at Apra Harbor, the military mission on our island is growing. Although the final scope and timing has not yet been determined, we believe that a contingent of U. S. Marines will be relocated from Okinawa to Guam. The military spending associated with that relocation has most people on the island energetically awaiting the final decision. Therefore, we believe that the future looks bright for government agencies, the engineering community and contractors alike.
We hope that you will join us for we we will need a strong team to build the road that lays ahead for Guam's Military Infrastructure and SAME is taking point!!

Binders, Moisturizers, Preservatives, and Colors
The remaining ingredients in toothpaste perform functions unrelated to cleaning the teeth. Toothpastes need something to keep the solid and the liquid ingredients together, and a binding agent performs this function. Most such agents are some form of cellulose, a gel, or an extract of seaweed. Without the binder, the toothpaste would separate into a liquid portion and a sort of mush and would have to be stirred, like paint, before each use.
In addition, moisturizers keep the toothpaste from drying out. The most commonly used moisturizers are glycerin and sorbitol.
Whenever the cap is left off the toothpaste tube, molds or bacteria can get inside. Most manufacturers add a preservative such as methylparaben or propylparaben to the toothpaste to prevent the microbes' growth.
To make toothpaste visually appealing, manufacturers add coloring agents, which usually are food colorings. Some coloring agents are natural, and others are artificial. White, pink, green, and blue are the favored colors of toothpaste. White toothpastes often contain titanium dioxide, a brilliant white pigment used in some paints, to make the toothpaste appear whiter and brighter.

When the Supreme Court upheld President Barack Obama's health-care mandate last week, many Republicans declared that the ruling would become a rallying cry.
But for several days, GOP leaders struggled to settle on a single message. The sticking point, of course, was one word – tax – that makes everyone nervous during an election year.
While many Republicans were quick to seize upon the court's suggestion that the requirement to buy health insurance could be deemed a tax, Mitt Romney's campaign had to wrestle with the question of whether the Romney-approved Massachusetts mandate then could be called a tax instead of a penalty.
More In Health Law
- For Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, a Slap Fight Over Health Care
- Davy Crockett Presses Obama on Health Care
- For Republicans to End Obamacare, They Need Something to Replace It
- Chief Justice Roberts Again Faces GOP Backlash Over a Health-Care Ruling
- A Gasp, Some Giggles and a Shrug: The Scene Inside the Supreme Court
And so began seven days of message testing. Here's how the Romney and Republican responses have evolved:
Day one: After the Supreme Court ruled the law constitutional, Mr. Romney said that the health care overhaul was still bad policy. He made only a passing reference to the T-word issue, saying, "Obamacare raises taxes on the American people…"
Days two, three and four: Other Republican officials made the tax question a top talking point. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell called the president's plan a "middle-class tax increase."
Day five: Eric Fehrnstrom, a top adviser to Mr. Romney, moved the conversation in a decidedly different direction when he rejected the tax descriptor and said, "The governor has consistently described the mandate as a penalty." The campaign confirmed in a statement that Obamacare amounted to an "unconstitutional penalty."
Day six: The presumptive Republican nominee and his campaign were quiet on this issue.
Day seven: Mr. Romney changed course, telling CBS, "Well, the Supreme Court has the final word. And their final word is that Obamacare is a tax. So, it's a tax."
After a week of week of refining the message, the Romney campaign disagrees with the ruling but agrees with the court that the mandate is a tax. And the Obama camp agrees with the decision but disagrees that the insurance requirement is a tax.
For their part, the Democrats have been more consistent, but their argument has required some linguistic gymnastics to bypass some of the reasoning behind the ruling while embracing the court's bottom line.
Although both campaigns have carefully parsed the tax vs. penalty language, some strategists in both parties have begun to ask: To what end? Polling before and after the Supreme Court decision shows Americans deeply divided, mostly along party lines, on the health care overhaul. The needle doesn't appear to be moving much.
What's more, a Kaiser Family Foundation poll released this week found that only 59% of those surveyed were aware that the court had ruled and upheld the health care law. Delving deep into the differences between a tax and a penalty is fodder for the political chattering classes, but that nuance may not resonate with average voters, particularly when many of them haven't even caught up to the top line take-away from the court decision.
As White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew walked the narrow path between tax and penalty earlier this week, he said, "Frankly, what you call it is not the issue." In fact, plenty of voters probably agree with that assessment. But just in case, both presidential campaigns are still working hard to ensure that their preferred labels stick.

York County District Attorney Tom Kearney issued a report Monday finding a state trooper was justified in the Sept. 23 shooting of Joshua Mosha Harding in Hanover.
The 30-year-old York County man allegedly attacked Trooper James O'Shea, overpowering him until the trooper shot Harding once in the chest, according to the report.
Harding was flown to York Hospital, where he was treated for serious injuries. Harding survived; the bullet with which he was shot remains in his body because physicians said it was "medical necessity" to leave it there, according to the report.
Kearney investigated the incident as a matter routine because the trooper discharged his firearm.
"...The issue is whether the deadly force that was used by Trooper O'Shea was reasonable under the circumstances," the report reads. "With regard to the mental state of the troopers, it would have been clear to any reasonable person that Mr. Harding presented an imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury at the time Trooper O'Shea used deadly force in the discharge of his service weapon. Accordingly, the conduct was justified and no criminal action is warranted."
The incident: Kearney's report was compiled from the police incident report, statements from civilian eyewitnesses, statements of the police officers involved, the statement of the treating paramedic, interviews with neighbors, a forensic report, and other information.
In an interview for Kearney's report, O'Shea said he arrived at 312 E. Middle St. in Hanover around 6:20 p.m. with Conewago Township Officer Matthew Kile. Both men are part of the Adams County Drug Task Force.
They were planning to serve arrest warrants on a man and a woman, two residents of a second-floor apartment in the building.
O'Shea and Kile told investigators they felt their lives were in danger when a third person in the apartment, Harding, started to attack.
The report from Trooper Jeffrey Gotwals said Harding pulled away as O'Shea was handcuffing him, "sucker-punching" the trooper. With one handcuff attached to his wrist, Harding continually punched and struck the trooper about the head and body with the fist to which the handcuff was attached, according to the report.
The handcuffs caused lacerations to O'Shea's head, and he sustained a broken finger before he fired on Harding.
According to the report, the woman who was also being arrested said Harding was her drug dealer.
She owed him money, so she would let people come to her residence to conduct drug deals with him, she told investigators. She said Harding had a large amount of heroin on him at the time of the attack, and police found the heroin in Harding's coat when they executed a search warrant.
Harding declined to be interviewed for the investigation into his shooting.
He has been charged with possession of heroin with the intent to deliver, two counts of aggravated assault, escape, resisting arrest, and two counts of simple assault.

Miniseries 'The Bible' aims to 'tell the stories as written,' producer says
Famed TV producer Mark Burnett tackles his projects with passion, but "The Bible" is a special labor of love.
The 10-hour, five-part docudrama, which will premiere March 3 on the History Channel, will span the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, presenting some of its best-known stories, including Noah's Ark, the Exodus, Daniel in the lions' den and the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.
Former "Touched By an Angel" star Roma Downey, Burnett's wife and fellow executive producer, heads a large international cast in the role of Mother Mary. Keith David, an Emmy winner for voice-over performances, will narrate with a musical score by Oscar- and Grammy-winning composer Hans Zimmer.
"In terms of importance, nothing we've ever done, not 'Touched By an Angel,' not 'Survivor,' not 'The Voice,' not 'The Apprentice' — none of this could possibly compare to 'The Bible,' " Burnett says. "To us, as a family, we love the Bible. This is not a TV show to us. It's images and sound and sacred text that people will still watch, way after our grandchildren are old people."
Because the entire Bible can't be covered in 10 hours, the miniseries, which was filmed in Morocco, focuses on a select group of stories and features such compelling figures as Abraham, Moses and David. Some stories had to be compressed for artistic purposes.
"What we've done is a grand narrative of emotionally connected stories," Burnett says. "We know we're not qualified to teach the Bible. We're qualified to be good television producers and storytellers."
He hopes the project brings comfort after the Sandy Hook school shootings, "absolutely the saddest tragedy imaginable. ... We hope 'The Bible,' by shedding some light into the world, can help in some small way to try and stop the darkness."
Downey came up with the idea for the miniseries a few years ago. "It is our obligation to tell the stories as written," Burnett says. "The stories are so brilliant and compelling."
The project will have broad appeal, he says. "If you know the Bible, you'll enjoy seeing the stories come to life. If you've never read the Bible, I think you'll love the stories," he says. "There's a reason the Bible is the most widely read book in the world."
