Are Raw Egg Whites Healthy?Healthy Living
I posted a smoothie recipe yesterday that garnered several comments about whether raw egg whites are safe to eat.
It's not really a matter of what is safe versus not safe … the entire egg is "safe" to eat raw if you obtain quality eggs. It is best to avoid eating commercial eggs raw due to the unsanitary conditions and crowded production methods the unfortunate confined chickens are subjected to which increases salmonella risk.
The real question is whether egg whites are healthy to consume raw.
The egg yolk is a wonderful way to get healthy, raw fats into the diet. Loaded with enzymes along with brain boosting and nervous system calming omega 3 fatty acids when from chickens allowed to run free to peck for their natural food of insects and grubs, raw egg yolks are healthy to use in smoothies, ice cream and other uncooked foods.
The raw egg white, on the other hand, contains avidin and trypsin inhibitors. Avidin blocks the digestion of biotin, one of the B vitamins and the trypsin inhibitors make digestion of the protein in the egg white more difficult.
Both of these antinutrients are neutralized by cooking, so it is best to reserve the egg whites for cooked dishes. My favorite way to use up raw eggs whites in a hurry is to make nutrient dense, soaked waffles or delicious high protein cookies.
Raw egg whites can be stored in a glass container in the fridge for several days until you are ready to use them up.
One other salient point – the egg yolk actually contains about 43% of the protein in the egg, so don't worry that leaving out the egg whites from your smoothies will leave it devoid of this macronutrient.

I am on a Ketogenic diet for the treatment of severe health issues related to long standing Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and concomitant food sensitivities/intolerances. The only animal protein I can digest at this point is raw egg yolks. I blend them with heavy whipping cream to make "egg nog" in a ratio of 4 oz cream to 6 egg yolks. It works brilliantly for me and tastes good too. I would prefer to use raw cream, but I have not been able to locate a source for this where I currently live.
Curious what your take is on the GAPS milkshake recommending raw egg yolk and white (for supposed heavy metal detoxification)? If it is something to be done only while on the program… Just wondering if you know why she recommends the raw white. Thanks:)

I understand they are "safe when finding good quality eggs" but let me pose this question, "how on earth can you trust you are finding good quality eggs?"
With the new twist and changes on "organic" per our USDA and FDA, how is good quality eggs found?
Salmonella is NOT a risk I am willing to take, but I found a good recipe that I'd like to try but RAW eggs has kinda steered me away for the above mentioned reasons.
I have thought of spraying my eggs down with a certified, toxic free (alcohol free) sanitizer. http://www.mommysclub.com/product?ProductId=6
Lots of research shows that Stabilized Chlorine Dioxide is great for cleaning raw veggies and fruits, I'm sure it could serve justice in cleaning eggs if It makes me feel better.
Input please?
I often throw away the egg whites due to digestion related issues (the yolk gives nutrients and makes up for the digestion required to "consume" it)
Plus the egg yolk tastes better!
thank you again for a great post . always wondered what to do with the egg whites. Re your waffle pan I can only find ones with non stick surfaces. Can I ask where you got yours? Also I wanted to ask you a question re bircher meusli. I soak my oats in whey and then make bircher meusli but I have been told it is bad to eat oats bot cooked. Would you agree with this and if so any ideas how to make it with cooked oats?
thank you as always
We save up the egg whites in the fridge and make the Meringues in Nourishing Traditions. They melt in your mouth, they are so good!
Cindy (Clee)
Thanks, again for furthering my education. I have often used whole eggs in our smoothies. Had no idea the whites might hinder nutrient absorption! I always thought if it was MADE with both the yolk and egg together, it must be okay to eat them together. I'm printing out this post!
Hi Sarah, I am having trouble finding healthy eggs. I can find cage free eggs or organic eggs at the store. I can find pasture eggs from a farmer which also feeds his laying hens a little mixture of corm from another local farmer, which is sprayed, and little organic feed. Which eggs are best? And what about the winter months? I live in Michigan and no grass and bugs in winter.
Thanks you and thank you so much for all you do. I am learning so much.
I had always put the whole egg in our smoothies but last year my son began to have excema on his hands and he hadn't had any of that since he was a baby. Anyway, I read somewhere that excema can be linked to a biotin deficiency and that egg yolks have plenty of biotin but the white can inhibit it. So I just started putting the yolk in and within a week or two his excema cleared up completely and I haven't seen any sign of it since.
Shari, here is the site. it's an exchange of ideas, questions and answers over a 2 or 3 year period. It may take a while to finds topics, so maybe just asking Scott a question would be quicker. Most of the participants are primal dieters, so if you haven't read the book, 'We Want To Live' it may seem a bit confusing.
I knew raw eggs were safe (well, if they come from safe chickens, that is), but I had no idea about the anti-nutrients in the whites. Thanks for informing!
Jen Richard
Good post. So many people who think they eat healthy are unaware of anti-nutrients in food.
On another note altogether, anyone notice the ironic country crock ad on the sidebar of this arcticle?
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Yes, I've complained to my ad sponsor to have it removed.
Sarah, on saving the raw whites. When made into meringue, are they cooked enough to be healthy?
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Yes, the anti-nutrients in egg whites are deactivated even by a light cooking so the low temperatures for making meringue still works fine.

I've taken this from Scott Wheeler's blog
One of my raw food mentors convinced me that there was more than enough biotin in raw egg yolks to compensate for this problem, and I revised my previous recommendation to say that eating whole raw eggs would not pose a problem. This idea made sense to me as many wild animals consume raw eggs with no apparent problems.
However, recently a subscriber, Dr. Sharma, PhD, who is a biochemist with Bayer, contacted me about this issue. His investigation into the matter revealed that there is not enough biotin in an egg yolk to bind to all the avidin present in the raw whites. He found that 5.7 grams of biotin are required to neutralize all the avidin found in the raw whites of an average-sized egg. There are only about 25 micrograms — or 25 millionths of a gram — of biotin in an average egg yolk. †from the mercola website.
I guess you would still be getting a lot of biotin from the raw meats as well?
Scott Wheeler
Aug 20th, 2008 at 6:16 pm
Jad, the action of the amino acid avidin binding with biotin is shown empirically in laboratory analysis.(The bond has also been shown to be beneficial for retaining muscle glycogen and dissolving biocarbons). However the body has an innate ability to properly alter any chemically identified enzyme inhibitor in eggs, allowing them to be eaten in their entirety. The empirircal evidence is presented here by none other than mother nature. Many Primal dieter's have also eaten up to 30 eggs per day for at least 25 years and exhibit none of the symptoms associated with biotin deficiency. Conclusions based on lab analysis which arrive at contradictions when considered metaphysically should be dimissed. There is no doubting that biotin ( as with all of the B vitamin complex) is an essential nutrient. It has never been shown that the consumption of whole raw eggs can cause a deficiency of this or any other nutrient, in fact quite the contrary.
In addition, it should be fairly obvious that eating whole raw eggs cannot cause a biotin deficiency. Millions of years of evolution proves this. In Vitro, Avidin binds with Biotin. In Vivo, the yolk contains Biotin to combat this reaction and the inherent ability of the body to perform symbiotic biochemistry is primary. This is a good example of how experiments done in test tubes on isolated chemical elements bears no relation to the complexity of real life physiology.
End of quotes
it seems a lot of what is done in the petri dish/test tubes does not always quite relate or equate to what is happening in the body. So unbeknown to the scientists, at times their results are only a rough guide at best.
PS> I have great respect for Scott. He lives/walks his talk, and his living practices have proven to be spot on, so far as health benefits for his family and himself.
And great respect for your work as well, Sarah. These exchanges can benefit all to improve health and well being.
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Thanks for posting. It is important to get these issues discussed with open minds presenting evidence from both sides.
Could you please post Scott Wheeler's website/blog? I would really like to check it out.
I also like what you have had to say about the :"controversy".
While yes, scientifically it looks like egg whites should be cooked before being consumed, my common sense says it doesn't make sense that we need to take a food and eat part of it raw and part of it cooked…..
Does this mean we should be using 2 egg yolks in your mayo recipe instead of the 1 whole egg plus one yolk?
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
A occasional raw egg yolk as in the mayo recipe is fine. They are certainly not dangerous as pointed out in the post. I was more referring to eating them frequently as in several a day in a smoothie for example as the protein is not absorbed well when they are consumed raw and the biotin in blocked from absorption.
Sunny Day via Facebook
I have read that the raw white binds to a vitamin(maybe biotin if I recall???) so I save for other recipes or let them go, just use yolks raw.
That is interesting about the quantity of protein in the yolk. That was something I was curious about – thanks for posting!

Are Raw Egg Whites Healthy? – The Healthy Home Economist http://t.co/gTRnaPk
I'm with you Greg. i doubt if the animals that rob the nests of birds bother to separate the yoke from the white.
Also the freezing of foods(excepting fruits) does little for the nutrient levels.
I mostly agree with Sarah, but not on this one. A bit of flawed science, or science looked at from the wrong angle.
Also I guess I'm looking at it from an all raw perspective, whereas this site does promote cooked foods as well. They don't mix that well.
Cooked foods are not all that bad, but I feel raw is the ultimate for best health, and regeneration of the body.
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Hi Keith, I certainly respect your choice to consume all your foods raw; however, few things in life are completely black and white. Eating all raw foods is certainly better than eating all cooked foods, but there is a happy medium in there somewhere as is made clear from study of traditional cultures that cooking of some foods is best for nutrient absorption and neutralization of anti-nutrients. We are not Pottenger's Cats after all although much can be learned and put into practice from this study no doubt.
Hey Keith, Some animals *are* choosy about the parts of the animal that they eat. I've seen my aunts cats only eat the organ meats of some chipmunks that they caught, and WP spoke about lions being raised in captivity not being able to reproduce in captivity as in nature they usually only consume the high quality organ meats. In nature they leave the muscle flesh for jackals…. so in nature (some) animals don't always consume all that is available to them. Sometimes they select the best and leave the rest.
My stomach absolutely does not tolerate egg whites. Probably those inhibitors you mentioned. No problem with raw yolks, and I do fine with low-and-slow cooked whole eggs.
Debbie Robert-Moraal via Facebook
I'm on gaps and eatting lots of raw egg yolks. Thanks for the egg white ideas
Greg Crick
I wonder if the effects of avidin and trypsin inhibitors are purely theoretical or have they been proven empirically?
I myself have been consuming on average 4 whole raw eggs per day for the past 5 years and have suffered no ill effects that I am aware of. Whole raw eggs are one of the cornerstones of The Primal Diet espoused by Aajonus Vonderplanitz Phd and have been used by a great many people who follow his program to create vibrant health. The eggs themselves are rich in biotin and the undenatured proteins seem to digest very easily. So that is why I must wonder about advice about not eating raw egg whites and whether it has been proven in humans or is just theoretical.
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
This from Cholesterol and Health site (written by Chris Masterjohn)
Consuming 100 grams of raw egg white with one egg yolk compared to consuming the same food cooked was shown in one study to reduce protein digestion from 90 percent down to 50 percent.
http://jn.nutrition.org/content/128/10/1716.short (Journal of Nutrition).
It seems you would be absorbing that protein a whole lot better if you cooked the whites.
I would also add that folks consume improperly prepared gluten grains for years without seeming ill effect either and then out of the blue develop chronic IBS, colitis and other gastrointestinal problems.
Francie Dunlap via Facebook
That's interesting, I always just put the whole egg in my smoothie, and didn't think much about it. Now I'll just save the whites to add to everyone else's omlettes.
At Nourished Kitchen, they use them (along with refined table salt, I'm guessing) for skin care. I'm fond of chocolate & coconut macaroons, myself
thehealthyhomeeconomist via Facebook
Oh, save those whites!!!! They make such FABULOUS cookies!
Thank you for "hearing" your readers and guiding us! It is much appreciated..
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
I was going to put up a blog about a completely different topic today, but hey – you have to go with where the conversation is headed I think!
Thanks! Two questions: Can egg whites be frozen for later use? Can farm-fresh eggs be kept at room temperature? If so, how long? Oh, one more thing (question from your "high-protein cookie" recipe). What is the difference between Grade B maple syrup and Grade A? My grocery store (we live in a small town) only sells (organic) Grade A.
BTW, you have single-handedly changed the way my family eats!
Sarah, TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Hi Nelly, yes you can freeze egg whites. They last up to a week in the fridge though so just make a big batch of protein cookies with your kids for a very healthy low carb snack during the week instead as you do lose a bit of nutrition by freezing and thawing.
Farm fresh eggs can be kept on the counter for several weeks. I tend to do it only for a week or so where I live though especially in the hot humid summer in FL where our home does get rather warm during the day (78F .. we keep our thermostat pretty high).
Grade B maple syrup is darker and more nutritious with more minerals than Grade A.
I've also read it has less sugar than A.
Savannah Hattan via Facebook
I also always feel bad pouring out the whites.
So pour them into a bowl, use the egg yolks in a smoothie, and make an omelette with the free run eggs, and some organic greens. You'll get plenty of protein (and other good stuff), and you won't feel bad about pouring them out
Justyn Lang via Facebook
Thanks so much for the ideas on how to use the extra egg whites! I haven't used the yolks in smoothies because I couldn't bring myself to throw away the whites.

text: To an outsider, standing in the center of Loja's central market is like facing a torrent of sensory stimulation. Vendors bombard you from every direction with information on what they are selling and how economical it is. Moreover the rich blend of colors and textures draws your eyes to a hundred things at a time. At first it is impossible to do anything except wander however, after some time, structure begins to take shape. Most apparent to me was that everything was fresh. Nothing in this market had ever been packaged or shipped overseas. Even the meat, one of the most overly processed items in the states, was fresh from the farm. Nothing is refrigerated and everything is sold as fast as possible, a method which helps both the local farmer and the environment.

Legislative briefs
Published: Friday, June 4, 2010 at 11:20 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 4, 2010 at 11:20 a.m.
Oil-processing tax will be heard
The Senate voted Thursday to grant debate to a proposed constitutional amendment that would place a new processing tax on foreign oil processed in Louisiana.
The motion to give Senate Bill 432 a hearing passed by a single vote, with Senate President Joel Chaisson, D-Destrehan, being the deciding factor, a rare occurrence, as the Senate president usually abstains.
Sen. Butch Gautreaux, D-Morgan City, voted in favor as well, while Sen. Norby Chabert, D-Houma, opposed giving the measure a hearing.
Sen. Rob Marionneaux, D-Livonia, is pushing the bill, which estimates say could raise more than $1.5 billion a year. His bill would direct the money to coastal protection, transportation, education and the so-called rainy-day fund, created for fiscal emergencies.
Marionneaux says BP's oil disaster in the Gulf was not the catalyst but serves as an appropriate reason to make energy companies cough up more money.
According to an analysis of the bill by the Legislative Fiscal Office, approximately 26 percent of all the oil processed in Louisiana and 50 percent of gas imports would be diverted to another state during year one of implementation.
Coastal zone expansion advances
Legislation that would expand the state's coastal zone awaits action on the House floor next week.
The House Natural Resources Committee approved Senate Bill 65 Sen. Jody Amedee, D-Gonzales, on Thursday.
As the bill stands, the zone would be expanded to include Ascension and Iberville parishes.
A similar bill was moved through the process last year, but it failed as coastal lawmakers voiced concerns because their own parishes would in theory get a smaller portion of the money and resources that are set aside for the program.
Those concerns remain for many coastal lawmakers this year as well.
"Right now, we're more concerned with the true coastal area," said Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville, whose district includes northern Terrebonne Parish.
Voting against the bill were Harrison and Reps. Gordon Dove, R-Houma, chairman of the committee; and Jerry Gisclair, D-Larose.
Charter captains could get fund
The House Natural Resources Committee gave unanimous approval Thursday to legislation that would fund a new marketing program for charter-boat captains.
Senate Bill 498 by Sen. Norby Chabert, D-Houma, would direct 10 percent of the license fees charter captains pay to the state to the account.
"Now, more than ever, these guys need to promote their industry," Chabert said.
According to an analysis of the bill by the Legislative Fiscal Office, about $20,800 annually would be
The bill heads to the full House for final passage.
Local levee bill heads to House
With no opposing votes, the Senate advanced legislation by Sen. Norby Chabert, D-Houma, Thursday that would give levee districts the autonomy to handle small-scale projects.
Senate Bill 708 would extend by four years a special provision in state law that allows levee districts and parish governments to handle work on non-federal levees in-house if the cost is $1 million or less.
The $1 million cap is set to expire Dec. 31.
The original law was enacted to address fixes in the wake of hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005, a situation exacerbated by hurricanes Gustav and Ike in 2008.
The law can be applied statewide, but Terrebonne Parish officials have been relying on the provision to move forward with local levees inside the 72-mile structure of the Morganza-to-the-Gulf hurricane-protection system.

SDCC: Marvel's "Doctor Strange" Combats "Death and Pain" in New Trailer
Comic Books, Film
In recent years, we've seen a boatload of comic books and graphic novels make their way to the silver screen, from Big Two stalwarts like Spider-Man and Batman to independent titles like Scott Pilgrim and 30 Days Of Night. Among the various adaptations, some creators have emerged as magnets for Hollywood types — although in this case not specifically for his comic work: Neil Gaiman.
We know Gaiman best for his comics work, but it's arguably his prose work that made his name for the mainstream public-at-large and the Hollywood types that have hired him for jobs. While none of his comics work has been adapted to the screen, his prose and prose/art hybrids have come to life in the movies for Stardust and Coraline, and the BBC series Neverwhere. He's been brought in to write episodes of Doctor Who and Babylon 5, and has written original screenplays for movies like Beowulf, Mirrormask and several unreleased projects. Be that as it may, people have attempted film adaptations of his comics work in the past, including an adaptation of Death: The High Cost of Living several years back.
But with Gaiman's stock in people's minds continuing to ride high, I'd bet money on more of Gaiman's comic work making it to the screen. Here's a crib sheet for the Hollywood-types on what they should do and how they should do it. Take note, I chose to leave out the variety of prose work that would be natural fits for adaptation, even the prose work that's later been adapted to comics.
The Sandman: If there's one comic that Gaiman will always be remembered for, it's The Sandman. It's his defacto definitive work in the comics form (and arguably the written word), and rightly so. The story of a rebellious brother in a family of gods, the Sandman is the person in charge of the realm of dreams and all that comes with it. It provided a gateway into a world of different stories, and it's stoked many cinematic storytellers to try to bring it to the big screen. At one point, Quentin Tarantino's former writing/producing partner Roger Avary was attached to direct, and recently writer/director James Marigold (Walk The Line) was pitching it as an HBO series. The last news released was that DC's parent company had lined up Supernatural creator Eric Kripke to push it on the television front. Five years ago a TV series might seem preposterous, but with True Blood doing what it does, a Sandman serialized series is feasible.
Signal To Noise: One of Gaiman's earliest comics works, Signal To Noise follows a filmmaker trying to finish his final project before succumbing to a terminal illness. It's been adapted twice to other formats (radio and stage) but no film/television translation has ever been discussed. This could be a great cerebral drama that wouldn't need a big budget; take long-time Stephen King adapter Lawrence Kasdan in and this could be a great film.
Lady Justice: Not many people remember this, and those that do might have a bad taste in their mouth right now, but it's not Gaiman's fault. Lady Justice was one of several comic concepts Gaiman sold to a comics company called Tekno Comics that they developed with other writers. Peel that away, and there's still a strong concept there: a blindfolded woman holding scales takes physical form in a supernatural version of 100 Bullets, offering wronged women a chance to bring justice to their persecutors. This would work perfect as a serialized story, allowing standalone episodes while also sowing the seeds for a larger arc.
The Books of Magic: The success of the "other" story of a boy magician might skew The Books of Magic for some, but Gaiman's creation still remains a potent bed of creativity. DC's head honcho Diane Nelson has a history of shepherding J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books to success; maybe she could do that same magic here.
Death: The High Cost Of Living: One of the most promising of Gaiman's ouvre, and also the one that came the closest to filming before falling through. For several years, Gaiman himself was shepherding a film adaptation based on his own script titled Death and Me. Guillermo del Toro was signed on as executive producer with Gaiman penciled in to direct, even going so far as to shadow del Toro for a week during the filming of Hellboy II: The Golden Army. It came on and off the backburner for years before Gaiman pronounced in dead in late 2010 due to intervention from DC and Warner Bros. When someone wises up, this could be a blockbuster film in the making — perhaps even more popular than a Sandman film.
If a Books of Magic show/movie came out featuring a boy wizard with glasses and an owl, Warner Bros and JK Rowling's lawyers would be all up over that.
I say Mr. Punch or Violent Cases are elligible for a movie. They were made in the same fashion as Signal to Noise, and they're both better stories (in my opinion).
I believe that Dave McKean has the intention of directing the film version of Signal to Noise.
"If a Books of Magic show/movie came out featuring a boy wizard with glasses and an owl, Warner Bros and JK Rowling's lawyers would be all up over that."
The "Books of Magic" mini-series was first published in 1990. "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was not published until June 1997, by which time the regular "Books of Magic" title had been going for almost four years.
Add that to the fact that (DC being owned by Warner Bros.) Warner would essentially have to sue themselves…and you've got a total non-starter.
While I don't think an adaptation of Sandman as a whole would be a good idea, I think there are one-issue stories and individual arcs there which could be turned into interesting films…Would I want to see A Midsummer Night's Dream as a film? Definitely!
And yeah, High Cost of Living would be great too. Were I making these, I'd try hard to ignore as much of Endless mythology as possible because that would just not work.

I edited the plugin to include this, but it would be great if it had it by default. Here's the code I used:
if (has_post_thumbnail()) {
$post_thumbnail = wp_get_attachment_image_src(get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'thumbnail');
$imageUrl = $post_thumbnail[0];
Obviously that's pretty simple and only uses post thumbnails, so there's no support for a default image or images inserted into posts, but it works for what I need.
og:description support might be good too to correct the warnings here: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/.

Heart Disease Health Center
Should Everyone Over 65 Take a Statin?
The study, which did not receive any drug-company or other outside funding, was published Aug. 28 in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
In the United States, guidelines already recommend statins for primary prevention of heart attack and stroke, an expert said.
"Statins have been proven to substantially reduce fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events in individuals without known cardiovascular disease, even among men and women with cholesterol levels considered in the normal range," said Dr. Gregg Fonarow, a spokesman for the American Heart Association.
Guidelines in the United States recommend statin therapy for primary prevention in men and women regardless of age. The guidelines from the European Society of Cardiology, however, do not provide recommendations for statin use in older people, Fonarow said.
The benefits of statins outweigh their risks for primary prevention in the clinical trials conducted so far, said Fonarow, a professor of cardiology at the University of California, Los Angeles.
"As cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death, disability and health care expenditures among men and women age 65 years or older -- and most men and women in this age range are at intermediate or high risk for cardiovascular events -- statins, together with a healthy diet and regular exercise, represent one of the most effective ... strategies for individual and population-level cardiovascular health," Fonarow said.
Cost is a consideration for any drug taken regularly. An April 2012 issue of Consumer Reports noted that statins vary widely in cost -- anywhere from $12 to more than $500 each month. The article, however, listed generic statins that can cost just a few dollars a month when supplied through programs run by major chain stores.

If anything, next warstory could use a bit more commentary because this one was a bit sparse. Other than that a nice read, keep it up!
OMG an LC warstory. Good battle overall, props for using Croagunk, even if you did use the evil Mienfoo too. It's a shame most LC battles just turn into sweeps, because it would be great to have more good battles worthy of a warstory.
Hi! Could you upload the replay for this battle to http://pokemon.aesoft.org/ ?
I need to test Little Cup replays to see how they do.
This inspires me to replace my Machop with Mienfoo.
*goes on teambuilder*
excellent warstory 9.5/10

Frei, who had been battling Milos Kocic for the No. 1 keeper job, broke his left leg a week and a half ago in a training-ground accident. At that time, the prognosis was that Frei would be out for eight to 10 weeks.
But, in a terse press release sent to media last Tuesday night, TFC announced that the recovery time has been changed. Frei had surgery to repair ankle ligaments that were torn, and now is expected to be out four to six months. The club stated that surgery was "successful."

Tad Kubler: The Hold Steady are a New York band
Photo by Mark Seliger
As Minnesotans, we just love claiming people as our own. Prince? Ours. Garrison Keillor? OURS. Bob Dylan? TOTALLY OURS. HE WAS BORN HERE. So it's no surprise that every time the Hold Steady returns to the Twin Cities to play a show, we throw up our arms in a welcoming homecoming embrace. After all, lead singer Craig Finn is a born-and-bred native, and his earlier work in Lifter Puller earned him an increasingly nostalgic, cultish local following. And in the Hold Steady, Finn often uses Minneapolis and St. Paul landmarks as backdrops for his lyrical passages, paying homage to landmarks like the Southtown Mall, Payne Avenue, the Grain Belt Bridge, and "Penetration Park" in his songs.
But are the Hold Steady really local? Do we have any right do claim them as "ours"?
In a recent interview with City Pages, guitarist Tad Kubler says that the Hold Steady is without a doubt a New York band. "The band started in New York. It's not like we started in Minneapolis and moved to New York," he said. "I remember Minneapolis fondly, but New York is my home now. This is where my family lives, and my daughter goes to school here. [It's] where creatively my career took off."
Though Kubler joined one of the later incarnations of Lifter Puller and is often regarded as a "local" musician, he actually grew up in Janesville, Wisconsin, and doesn't relate to the history of the Twin Cities music scene as strongly as one might expect. "It's interesting to hear people say, 'Yeah, these guys sound like the Replacements,'" Kubler reflects. "As somebody who writes the [Hold Steady's] music, I don't own a Replacements record."
Finn and his bandmates undoubtedly love playing in Minnesota (they'll be back in town this weekend to play back-to-back shows), and will always have a special place in the landscape of Twin Cities music history. But though their lyrics may suggest otherwise, the Hold Steady are a Brooklyn band.

This paper addresses the problem of controlling the speed of a permanent-magnet stepper motor assumed to operate in a high-performance drives environment. An artificial neural network (ANN) control scheme which uses continual online random training (with no offline training) to simultaneously identify and adaptively control the speed of the stepper motor is proposed. The control scheme utilizes two three-layer feedforward ANNs: (1) a tracker identification neural network which captures the nonlinear dynamics of the motor over any arbitrary time interval in its range of operation; and (2) a controller neural network to provide the necessary control actions to achieve trajectory tracking of the motor speed. The inputs to the controller neural network are not constructed from the actual motor/load dynamics, but as a feedback signal, from the estimated state variables of the motor supplied by the neural identifier and the reference trajectory to be tracked by the actual speed. A full nonlinear model (with no simplifying assumptions) is used to model the motor dynamics, and to the best of the authors' knowledge this represents the first such attempt for this device. This paper also makes use of a very realistic and practical scheme to estimate and adaptively learn the noise content in the speed-load torque characteristic of the motor. Simulations reveal that the neural controller adapts and generalizes its learning rate to a wide variety of loads, in addition to providing the necessary abstraction when measurements are contaminated with noise

Mirecki hospitalized after beating
By Ron Knox, Eric Weslander (Contact)
Originally published 05:37 p.m., December 5, 2005 Updated 06:31 p.m., December 5, 2005
Douglas County sheriffs deputies are investigating the reported beating of a Kansas University professor who gained recent notoriety for his Internet tirades against Christian fundamentalists.
Kansas University religious studies professor Paul Mirecki reported he was beaten by two men about 6:40 a.m. today on a roadside in rural Douglas County. In a series of interviews late this afternoon, Mirecki said the men who beat him were making references to the controversy that has propelled him into the headlines in recent weeks. Mirecki
I didnt know them, but Im sure they knew me, he said.
Mirecki said he was driving to breakfast when he noticed the men tailgating him in a pickup truck.
I just pulled over hoping they would pass, and then they pulled up real close behind, he said. They got out, and I made the mistake of getting out.
He said the men beat him about the upper body with their fists, and he said he thinks they struck him with a metal object. He was treated and released at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Im mostly shaken up, and I got some bruises and sore spots, he said.
Douglas County Sheriffs Officials are classifying the case as an aggravated battery. They wouldnt say exactly where the incident happened, citing the ongoing investigation
The sheriffs department is looking for the suspects, described as two white males between ages 30 and 40, one wearing a red visor and wool gloves, and both wearing jeans. They were last seen in a large pickup truck.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 843-TIPS or the sheriffs office at 841-0007.
Mirecki recently wrote online that he planned to teach intelligent design as mythology in an upcoming course. He wrote it would be a nice slap in the big fat face of fundamentalists.
The remarks caused an uproar, Mirecki apologized, and KU announced last week the class would be canceled.
Yes, Mirecki's face does irritate, no doubt about it. After a second look though, it's not a face I'd want to stick a fist into, but rather a face that is begging for a cream pie to be shoved into it.
They are definately laying it on thick and turning every ant hill into a mountain of contention. I suspect we all have dealt with this bunch or their peers before, under different names of course.
They knew who he was when he confronted them. They could have recognized him as that ay-thee-yust egghead. You don't know they knew that before they stopped.
So was the prof stopping over for a little rumble, too?
My wife told me today she's scared it's exactly the kind of thing I'd do. And living in this part of the country, you really don't expect violence.
Telling in a way that I am more than happy to claim ownership of.
There's a weak spot in the GOP when it comes to libertarians and the religious right. The libertarians have to learn to understand that even their cultural opposites can have a seat at the table--their tax cuts and property rights may well depend on a little tolerant alliance.
"Telling in a way that I am more than happy to claim ownership of."
I know you do. That's what's so sick about it.
The survival of America, may well rest upon a little tolerant alliance. Hope they get it, before it's too late.
Are you kidding? You are no more capable of determining who needs "help" than you are of determining the difference between gloating and sarcasm. Suggestions of "help" from someone who has no moral anchor are as valuable as a red visor cap in the dead of winter. Besides, you are not really interested in anyone receiving "help." You merely tossed out the suggestion as an insult.
" That's what's so sick about it."
If that's sick, I don't want to be well.
"If that's sick, I don't want to be well."
That's why you're sick.
A professor sets up a class designed to ridicule the beliefs of others, and somehow certain folks are "appalled" that unpleasant consequences ensue. I don't buy their sanctimonious, drama queen indignation.
"You sir, need help."
I can't argue with that. Could you come over and rake my leaves sometime?
Sick is as sick does.
Your tuning pegs are wound waaaay too tight, CarolinaGuitarman.
"Sick is as sick does."
That doesn't help your case any.
On Andrew Jaspan, editor of the Australian newspaper The Age, who was offended by Douglas Wood, an Australian who was kidnapped and held hostage in Iraq, and then referred to his captors as "a**holes" after he was rescued:
"The Ages editor didnt care for this brusque mean-spirited judgmentalism. As Mr. Jaspan told Australias ABC network, 'I was, I have to say, shocked by Douglas Woods use of the a**hole word, if I can put it like that, which I just thought was coarse and very ill-thought-through and I think demeans the man and is one of the reasons why people are slightly skeptical of his motives and everything else. The issue really is largely, speaking as I understand it, he was treated well there. He says he was fed every day, and as such to turn around and use that kind of language I think is just insensitive.'
And heaven forbid were insensitive about insurgents. True, a blindfolded Mr. Wood had to listen to his captors murder two of his colleagues a few inches away, but how crude and boorish would one have to be to hold that against ones hosts? The liberation of Douglas Wood is surely a first: He didnt get Stockholm Syndrome, but everyone back home did. Whats with this guy, anyway? They fed him every day and if theyd ever got around to sawing his head off theyd have got out the nice sharp scimitar, not the old rusty thing they used for Nick Berg. Like, whys he so totally insensitive? Is he a Bush supporter or something?"[2] - Mark Steyn
Whatever my case is, it's curable. Stupidity is a lifetime condition that only grows worse with age.
"Whatever my case is, it's curable. Stupidity is a lifetime condition that only grows worse with age."
In which case, your doubly damned.
Well I'll be damned.
"Well I'll be damned."
No doubt.
Hate to be picky but Your in this instance should be You're.
"Hate to be picky but Your in this instance should be You're."
Hate to be picky but you are an apologist for terrorists.
That's nice. Does mom know you're on her computer again?
The domestically grown terrorists, kill babies faster than they can be conceived. You are the apologist for those terrorists.
What are you? Ten years old?
Do you support the actions of the slugs who have become billionaires, butchering babies????
I'd say he's not the only one, re-read the exchanges from post 570 onward.
The scolding schoolmarm has not completed all of her dossiers on the vast conspiracy the misbehaving boys are involved in. Once that hugely time consuming task is completed, shell go to the principal, (oops, I mean the FR administrators) to try get all of the misbehaving boys expelled (oops, I mean banned).
Then they'll just disappear from FR into the 'Night and Fog'.
Next question: who let him in here?
I know where he can find a whole posse of clowns as juvenile as he is.
The entire thread is a severe embarrassment to FR.
I gurantee you'll see more of the same. If you look back through the posts, you'll see some of the usual suspects found in other threads of note commonly referred to as 'science-vs-religion".
I've been tempted to ask some of these folks, 'why are you here'? It's definitely not to discuss issues related to the purpose of FR, as stated on its entry page.
Yes, it is an embarrassment.
Careful - illiterate clowns are on patrol tonight :)
By the same token, your non-answer suggests that you support the baby butchers, and are a disgrace to everything that separates humans from the beasts.
"By the same token, your non-answer suggests that you support the baby butchers, and are a disgrace to everything that separates humans from the beasts."
Do you support the actions of Eric Rudolph?
Nine why? Am I too old to be talking to you?
C'mon men, last call. Drink up.
Let the lady finger her guitar and the Senator bed whatever fellows he likes.
Not exactly an auspicious beginning, but whatever...
Do you two Bedfellows?
You tend to be a somewhat demanding person PaleHorse. Perhaps you're an indian chief who is used to having his orders carried out by underlings. In any case, my comments on this thread seem to have struck a negative chord...stirring up more negative than positive comment. I wonder how many of you consider yourselves to be prolife. If any, the life you seem most interested in preserving is that of the abortionist doctor. You have the nucleus of a foundation for the care and feeding of abortionists...kind of like the care and feeding of cancer.
PaleHorse...Question: What's the differance between a cruel, sadistic, bloodcrazed islamofascist terrorist and an abortion doctor?
Answer: The abortion doctor has murdered more innocents and is much better paid. Otherwise not much differance.
So why are we fighting a war on terror and not on abortion.
Grammar good. You try grammar. You like.
Do you support the crud he was attempting to remove?
