Welcome back to Doughvember! This week, Linda and I are giving away sourdough-related prizes, so keep reading if you're interested in today's giveaway. Have you had any sourdough adventures yet this month? I'm saving my bread baking for the second half of the month, but this week I decided to experiment with using sourdough starter to replace part of the flour and water in a simple pumpkin cake.
The great thing about keeping a sourdough starter is that you can experiment with using it in all sorts of recipes. As long as you know the percentage of flour to water in your starter, it's easy to figure out how much flour and liquid to replace in a recipe. I keep my sourdough starter at 100% hydration. That means that I feed it with equal parts flour and water (by weight). If you've followed my instructions for creating and maintaining a sourdough starter and have been feeding it with one cup of unbleached all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup water at a time, yours should be very close to 100% hydration because one cup of flour and 1/2 cup of water are close to the same weight (about 4 oz).
If you're interested in keeping your starter at 100% hydration and you'd like to be exact, you should start weighing your ingredients when you feed your starter.
Maintaining a Sourdough Starter at 100% Hydration
In order to keep your starter healthy, you should be doubling the amount each time you feed it. Since you don't want the starter to take over the kitchen, you need to use or discard a portion of the starter before feeding it. A good amount of sourdough starter to keep on hand at any one time is 16 ounces (which is about 2 cups by volume). To feed the starter by weight, measure out 8 ounces of your starter and use or discard the rest. Feed the 8 ounces of sourdough starter with 4 ounces of flour and 4 ounces of filtered water (water should be at room temperature or lukewarm – never hot to the touch). Now you have doubled the amount of starter and you're keeping it at 100% hydration. If you need to increase your amount of starter for a recipe, just keep doubling the amount until you have what you need for the recipe (plus extra to keep on hand). If you'd like to keep a smaller or larger amount on hand, that's fine, too. Just remember to always double the amount (by weight) when feeding.
Using Sourdough Starter in Recipes
By keeping your starter at 100% hydration, you know that it is always half water and half flour by weight. So 8 ounces of 100% hydration sourdough starter is always equal to 4 ounces of flour and 4 ounces of water. This makes it fairly easy to use discarded sourdough starter in any recipe that uses flour and liquid, especially quick breads. For example, If you want to use one cup of sourdough starter in a muffin or quick bread recipe, you just need to remember that you'll be replacing 4 ounces of flour (about 1 cup by volume) and 4 ounces of liquid (1/2 cup by volume) in the recipe. Of course it's not exactly that simple. Sourdough starter is acidic, so if you want to swap it in without changing any of the leavening amounts, it works best in recipes that would normally have an acidic liquid like buttermilk. But don't let any of this scare you. Experiment and have fun!
One thing to keep in mind is that when using sourdough starter in a quick bread or cake recipe, it's not necessarily going to make your baked goods taste like sourdough bread. The "sour" flavor in sourdough bread is developed over the long, slow fermentation times that most of those breads require. In quick breads, the starter will add an extra bit of flavor and the texture will be a bit different, but it's usually very subtle.
On to the pumpkin cake. Since I'm still trying to avoid refined sweeteners as much as I can and because I thought it would be a great flavor combination, I used maple syrup in place of sugar to sweeten this cake. As cakes go, it's not especially sweet, but after sampling a few slices Phil and I both decided that it was just sweet enough. If you'd like to increase the dessert factor of this cake, a smear of cream cheese frosting would be just perfect.
Pumpkin-Maple Sourdough Cake
1/2 cup pumpkin or squash puree (canned or homemade)
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup "fed" 100% hydration sourdough starter
3/4 cup whole wheat flour (I used whole white wheat)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
heaping 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and move rack to center position. Butter an 8-inch round cake pan (or coat with baking spray).
Start with all ingredients at room temperature. In a mixing bowl, whisk together squash puree, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla. Fold sourdough starter into squash mixture into until well combined. In a separate small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Add dry ingredients to squash mixture and stir just until incorporated. Stir in melted butter. Pour batter into the greased 8-inch round cake pan. Bake at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched.
Doughvember Prizes
I told you that there would be prizes for Doughvember, didn't I? Well this week Linda and I are both giving away one of these beautiful filtered water pitchers by MAVEA. Since wild yeast can be sensitive to the chlorine and other impurities in tap water, it's important to use filtered water when feeding your sourdough starter and baking bread. One of the easiest ways to always have filtered water on hand is with a filtered water pitcher like this one:
Here's some info about MAVEA:
MAVEA is about bringing a new philosophy and generation of water filtration products to North America. We believe in and support the municipal water systems in North America. While these systems are excellent, they were not designed to treat or remove the numerous chemicals and pharmaceuticals that are present in water today. As an alternative, bottled water is not only questionable in terms of quality, but harmful for the environment and expensive.
Developed as a solution to these modern day problems, MAVEA is a new generation of premium water filtration products. The aim of MAVEA is to provide healthy and safe water in a way that is stylish, convenient, economical and personal. All MAVEA filters and pitcher systems are produced in Germany using the highest quality materials and design technology.
I haven't yet tried one of these pitchers myself, but the company is providing one for me as well as one to give away for Doughvember. Linda has been using hers for a while with great results (you can read her review here), so I'm looking forward to replacing my leaking Brita pitcher with this one. I'll let you know later how it works out!
If you'd like a chance to win a Mavea pitcher (color of the pitcher might be different than the one in the photograph), just leave a comment below. For up to two extra entries in the giveaway, you can like Pinch My Salt on Facebook and/or like Mavea on Facebook. Just leave an extra comment for each after you've done so (if you already like my page on Facebook, you're still eligible for the extra entry, just leave a comment saying so). Contest will close on Sunday at 9pm Pacific and I'll choose a winner using Random.org. Update: The contest is now closed. A winner was chosen using a Random Integer Generator and was notified by email. Thanks for participating!
Doughvember Roundup
Now I'd like to share a few of my favorite things I've seen around the web so far this Doughvember.
Linda, my partner in sourdough this month, has created yet another Doughvember masterpiece. She wrapped a seared beef tenderloin with comte cheese and sourdough and then baked the whole thing. She then served the Sourdough-Comte Beef Wellington with Port-Fig Compound Butter. Head over to Salty Seattle for the recipe and another chance to win a Mavea filtered water pitcher (remember, sourdough starters prefer filtered water).
Sara from Three Clever Sisters decided to combine her loves of sourdough and brioche by making this beautiful Sourdough Brioche using the formula found in Tartine Bread (a book that is on my Christmas wish list).
Kerrie from Serves Four has been keeping us updated on her sourdough baking via Instagram and I love this photo arrangement she created that shows her process of baking a gorgeous loaf of sourdough bread.
Brandon from Kitchen Konfidence has been writing about his adventures in creating a sourdough starter from scratch using a slightly different method than the one I've written about here. His starter begins with whole wheat flour, water, and a red cabbage leaf. It might sound strange, but it's actually a great way to get a sourdough culture started, especially if you've had trouble getting one going in the past. The white film that is usually visible on red cabbage (and on grapes) is actually wild yeast. Check out his progress on Kitchen Konfidence.
And finally, here's a photo of what I've been up to with my sourdough starter lately. I dried a bunch of it to take with me to the International Food Blogger's Conference in Santa Monica this weekend. I powdered it and divided it into 20 packets to hand out to anyone who wants one. If you'll be at the conference and are interested in some starter (plus instructions for bringing it back to life), find me! If you're interested in dehydrating some of your own starter for long-term storage or for mailing to friends, you can find good instructions at Chocolate & Zucchini.
We have been following and communicating with the growing community of Doughvember bakers on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. If you're talking about sourdough on twitter and/or posting photos of your creations on Instagram this month, please use the hashtag #Doughvember so we can all see what you're up to. If you write a blog post this month featuring sourdough, send Linda or I the link (or post it in a comment). I'll continue sharing links and photos throughout the month and we'll hopefully come up with a big Doughvember roundup at the end of the month.
If you'd like to create your own sourdough starter from scratch and play along with us, you can find detailed instructions here.
And don't forget to leave a comment to enter the giveaway and visit Salty Seattle for another chance to win a Mavea filtered water pitcher!

Forum > Mustang Discussions
Need some help
I just bought a 65 Gt 350, and it's in great shape. It has a blue interior, and the outside is primer black. I'm going to pay to have it painted, but what colors would look good with a blue interior? Black, blue and white are oblivious, but what other colors are there to choose from that would match?
Are you talking about a real Shelby GT350 Mustang or just a clone?
If it is a real one you have to get an original black interior and paint the exterior Wimbledon White. The 1965 Shelby only came with this color combination.
If you have a clone then why not go all the way and make the interior look like the Shelby one?
Hey bro if it is a real 65 GT go with what is suppose to have but if it just a clone then go wild silver has always been a head turner with those even if you don't put the stripes on there or not. STANG OUT.
Jerry Baker:
I agree with you all if its a real shelby go shelby all the way but if its a clone you can go shelby or what ever make you happy? Im guessing your talking a light blue. if so white and blue, the smae blue as the interior, or silver. You could go to a good paint store and see what they have to set the blue insides off.
Lets see a photo of it maybe that will help us.

Tokyo, Japan — In May, 2007, the Canadian Institute of Stress / Hans Selye Foundation launched its first formalized international affiliate relationship, The Tokyo-Selye Center (TSC). The TSC has offered us a "demonstration model" opportunity to evaluate the viability of such cross-cultural relationships. Building on our Institute and Foundation's work, the Tokyo-Selye Center has continued to:
♦ Conduct applied research concerning workplace change and stress in Japan
♦ Train and certify professionals in appropriate brief counseling methods
♦ Certify professionals for, and to directly provide: workplace diagnostics, training, coaching and consulting services
The Center is headed by Professor Takashi Sato, an extensively experienced industrial psychologist who has been trained by and worked closely with the Canadian Institute of Stress since 1996.You are invited to visit the Tokyo-Selye Center's Japanese language homepage at www.sipe-selye.co.jp — Japanese-to-English translation is available from a Google URL search.
Three years' collaborative evaluation of the TSC experiment have clearly demonstrated effectiveness in the transfer and cross-cultural integration of the knowledge, instruments and methods developed by Dr. Selye's Canadian Institute of Stress.
Damaam, Saudi Arabia — In January, 2011, the Canadian Institute of Stress / Hans Selye Foundation accredited the Vital Work Center to serve the Arab world. The Vital Work Center, headquartered in Damaam, Saudi Arabia is directed by Dr. Abdullah Almulhim, an internationally experienced workplace psychiatrist and trainer. Based in his 16 years' work with the petrochemical leader, Saudi Aramco, Dr. Almulhim had become aware of the close links between a company's success and on-the-job health, satisfaction and engagement of staff.
In 2007, Dr. Almulhim began a worldwide search for best-of-breed resources to safeguard these corporate vital signs in the Arab world. By 2009, his research gave top priority to the work of Canada's Vital Corporation and its parent organization, the Canadian Institute of Stress. Leading edge applied science, he concluded, well tempered by applications in a broad range of private and public sector workplaces in Canada and in Japan would be essential to Arab world success.
Working online with his Canadian mentors in a series of pilot projects, Dr. Almulhim has developed the Vital Work Center to integrate these evidence-based solutions with the unique challenges and opportunities of Arab workplace culture. Rooted in the Institute's "Making Change Successful, not Stressful™" model, the Center's "Vital Organization Program" has become its flagship service … providing well documented pre/post results in wellbeing and business metrics.
Madison, Wisconsin, USA – In September, 2015, Vital Organization, LLC, launched its suite of services modelled on the applied research, diagnostic tools and core programs developed by the Canadian Institute of Stress. Vital Organization's chief executive is Ed Adib, MD, a cardiothoracic surgeon who graduated in 2007 from the Institute's online certification training for Stress & Wellness Consultants SWC(c).
His on-going consultation with the Institute is reflected in Vital Organization's suite of services, including:
- Executive assessment and coaching
- Corporate training, coaching and blended E-learning with a specialization for health care organizations and professions
- Human resources programming focusing on productive wellbeing, especially during corporate change

Shippensburg ousts Edinboro women's soccer team on penalty kicks
EDINBORO -- After 110 minutes of scoreless soccer, fourth-seeded Shippensburg (11-5-2) edged fifth-seeded Edinboro (12-5-2) 4-3 in penalty kicks in the PSAC tournament quarterfinals Tuesday afternoon.
Edinboro players Liz Debo, Jansen Hartman and Emillie Wetzig all scored their penalty kicks, but it wasn't enough to push the Fighting Scots into the next round.
Goalkeepers were stellar for both squads, as Shelbie Rackley of Shippensburg recorded eight saves and Meghan Kelly made two.
Shippensburg will move on to play top-seed California in the semifinals Friday at a location and time to be announced.

It may seem a bit ambitious for a team that has yet to play a single MLS game to arrange a mid-season matchup with a world power, but that's indeed what will happen on July 18, as league newcomer Seattle Sounders host EPL giant Chelsea at Qwest Field in a game to be televised live on ESPN2.
"There have been a lot of exhibitions here [in Seattle]," said Sounders general manager Adrian Hanauer. "But to have arguably one of the five biggest clubs in the world and one of the best teams in the world playing against an expansion MLS team will be interesting."
Chelsea CEO Peter Kenyon said the club is "delighted" to be making a preseason return to the Emerald City, where they played a friendly in 2004, and promised that they'd be bringing a "full-strength squad," giving fans hopes of seeing the likes of John Terry, Michael Ballack, Deco and Didier Drogba among others.

Historical Traveler Reviews Heathman Lodge Vancouver
Service poor at faciilty
My family just spend a night at the Healthman Lodge and came away very disappointed by its level of service. First, we drove six hours through a heavy rain storm with a one year old and arrived at the Heathman at 12:45pm on a Saturday afternoon. We were told that it was impossible to check in early as there wasn't a clean room available and that we should go to the mall. (I find it hard to believe that they had a full house the night before). We also found it impossible to find hotel parking on a Saturday night as they had a huge corporate event going on at the Lodge.
Finally, on Sunday morning, we were unable to find a cart to assist us in transporting our luggage b/c the one around was taken up by the caterers setting up a huge buffet in the lobby.
Also, I wasn't aware, by reading the previous reviews and the Lodge's actual website, that this is actually located in a suburban business complex, meaning that you can't easily take a walk anywhere.
Overall, I got the sense that the staff could not have cared less about its hotel guests and that they were more interested in their restaurant guests and those attending large group functions.
The room itself was fine - basic but very clean.
Nicest place to stay in Vancouver!
This is my hometown so I rarely need accomodations here but a special event gave me reason to spend the night at the Heathman Lodge. This is a beautiful hotel near the Westfield Mall. It's location isn't romantic but the building and grounds are really lovely. It feels like a lodge with lots of wood, a northwest feel and native american accents. The restaurant is fantastic. I was too busy to get down to the pool but I hear it's nice. My room was an above average hotel room. Nothing out of the ordinary but very nice. If I have to put up relatives, this is where I send them. Truly the nicest place to stay in Vancouver (maybe until the new Hilton opens!)
I love the Heathman
The Heathman Lodge is a comfortable hotel and the amenities are tops. The Lodge is located conveniently to other attractions. I have stayed here many times and it keeps getting better.
Stay here instead of Portland
Our family of 4 stayed at the Heathman Lodge twice - about 5 years apart - and during our latest stay, the facilities inside and out look none the worse for wear - everything was as nice and clean as the first time we stayed there. Parking is ample, staff is competent and friendly. The free computer access is invaluable - especially being able to check-in for e-ticketed flights, check on work e-mail, etc. The bathroom is big, there's a microwave and coffee maker in the room, temperature control was very good, manuevering around the halls to the elevators and then downstairs was easy. The beds now have that body-forming foam mattresses which are very comfortable and quite warm. The pool and gym were wonderful. The restaurant is tempting, but since there are so many good restaurants nearby that are not available in our hometown, we chose to eat out. The surrounding neighborhood is great for taking an early morning walk, there are a few malls, and Portland is just a hop-skip-and-a-jump away. The directions to/from the airport given on the hotel's website are great. During our latest stay in Oregon, we also spent two nights in a 4-star hotel in downtown Portland, but the parking was nonexistent, the surrounding blocks in the shopping area were scary at night, and we vowed to always stay out in Vancouver whenever we come to Portland - the price is great and the atmosphere exactly what we'd expect from the Pacific Northwest!
Beautifully rustic appearance
Our family stayed at the Heathman Lodge August 4, 2004 and were thrilled at the beautiful, log cabin/mountain lodge look of the hotel, both inside and out. I was able to get it through Expedia for $91 and thought it was a great deal, considering I had to pay the same for a gross little chain hotel the following day.
We were pleased at the spaciousness of our room, but it may have been because it was a handicap room (at least I assume it was due to the chair in the shower and absence of a bathtub). The kids thought that was very novel. :)
The pool was too chilly for my taste, but the exercise room was wonderfully stocked and had lots of great machines (i.e. treadmills, stair machines, etc.).
We didn't eat at the restaurant or utilize any other services, but we certainly loved the beauty of the hotel and the log-cabin-style decor. The kids loved the goldfish (koi?) pond outside the main entrance too.
Great getaway
A great get away. He stayed here over the 4th of July and we found the staff to be outstanding. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and the location was great.
Excellent value
If you must stay in Vancouver, the Heathman is mervelous consolation.
The hotel is lovely, the service is excellent, the meeting facilities are professional and comfortable, and the dining (both restaurant and catering) are above average. The rooms are comfortable and nicely appointed. The pool and gym facilities are well-maintained and convenient.
Nice, but itchy wool blankets, limited pool hours
This is a nice hotel for the Vancouver area, which is sort of blue-collar and a poor step-child for Portland across the river.
Attractive hotel that is a bit more impressed with itself than its due.
Front desk staff were young and a little snippy. You feel like they are waiting for the important guest to arrive, and it's not you. When we asked to extend an additional day (Sunday night) on a three-day weekend, they bumped the rate to the weekly rate, even though the next day was a holiday and their parking lot was half-empty. They specialize in Pendleton wool blankets for the bedding, which we found itchy and not really better than the usual polyester spreads. They'd do better to upgrade their bedding to cotton comforter covers.
Restauruant is nice and very good for grownups, but the kids breakfast selection is limited. Great booths, but we felt like our kid was merely tolerated. We did have a very nice dinnerthere when we just the grownups had dinner and the grandparents looked after the kid.
Beautiful wood throughout the place. Could smell smoking rooms in hallways, and wide space under entry doors sends a lot of hallway and door-closing sounds into your room.
Sort of hysterical to have a Vancouver lodging act as if they were a destination resort and you are darn lucky to be there. It's an approach, but we travel quite a bit and think they are a sort of Hyatt or better wanna-be that doesn't cut it.
Weird hours of not opening the pool until 10:00 am - we and several other families took our kids in at 9:00 anyway, but we felt like we were sneaking around.
We were over the entry and thought that and the adjacent parking area made things a little noisy. Good sized rooms though, and as the nearest Embassy Suites is at the airport, it's a good option for the area.
Business travelers would be happy here, and although we don't think it's perfect we'd stay again given the local selection.
Wonderful place
The Heathman Lodge is first class all the way! We were very pleased with the friendly staff, cleanliness, appearance and overall stay.
The staff will go out of there way to help. We spent a week there and it wasn't long enough.
First Class all the way!
This place is first class in everything! The rooms are large, well designed and comfortable. The restaurant is truly top-of-the-line... but the best of all is the service - you are treated like royalty. I highly recommend the Heathman.
TripAdvisor Reviews Heathman Lodge Vancouver
Travel Blogs from Vancouver
We made it to Vancouver, Washington!!
... extra hour!
The Interstate 5 Bridge, built in 1917, crosses the Columbia River and connects Portland, Oregon with Vancouver, Washington. That means the border between the States runs down the middle of the River!!
What a gorgeous driving day! Clear blue skies all the way from leaving California, through Oregon into Washington - 660km & 3 States all in one ...
Back in the USA!
... We took 2 days for the drive, and it was really beautiful. The road was very curvy and hilly, and we couldn't believe it when we saw several loaded touring cyclists. I can't begin to imagine how they could ride on that narrow, hilly road with so much traffic, including trucks, since it's the only road into the area. It didn't look like fun at all. We're continually discovering that there are crazier people than us out there, which is ...
Picturesque Portland
... Park is the centerpiece of Portland's park system. The International Rose Test Garden as well as the Japanese Garden are among the six attractions on the 130 acres. After a blissful morning in the park, we headed for downtown Portland (and the nightmare of a hunt for parking)! We snagged the last place in a three-level parking garage. However, designated driver Duane couldn't open the car door because of the tight space and had ...
Government Shutdown changes our plans
... from our hotel. The food is typical Mongolian grill style and so if you don't like your dinner it is your own fault for not selecting the right combination.
The rest of the evening is spent doing laundry, hanging out at the pool making alternate plans for the next few days since the shut down is still locking us out of the parks.
Fruit Looping
... views.
Back to Hood River to begin our fruit looping. This area is a huge fruit growing region. Apples, pears, cherries, plums, grapes and berries. At the moment it is peak apple and pear picking. A trail is provided which you can follow and stop at the various fruit stands and other places of interest. We stopped at a few fruit stands buying some honey crisp apples ( huge and delicious) and some jam and syrup. We then came upon the Apple ...

Light heavyweight has been MMA's showcase division since Frank Shamrock beat Olympian Kevin Jackson to become the division's first ever champion back in 1997. That was so long ago that 205 pounds was considered "middleweight" and current champion Jon Jones was just 10 years old.
When Shamrock retired after dispatching Tito Ortiz, a new generation of stars dominated the division, including Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture and Wanderlei Silva. Today, Jon Jones rules the roost.
All of this great talent in a single weight class leads to plenty of divisive discussion about who can lay claim to being the division's top star. Allow me to add my two cents.
Using science as my guide, I ranked the top 10 fighters in history in five statistical categories (wins, winning percentage, quality wins, finishing percentage, wins in title fights).
My subjective opinion was not enough. Behold the power of math.

Zimbabwe, Here We Come! 0 commentsAsia Times has a great article by John Lee on what lies ahead for the U.S. dollar. Mr. Lee studied economics and engineering at Rice University. His credentials are better than mine. His conclusions are the same.At the risk of sounding like a Town Crier that has worn out his welcome, you should read this article. Mr. Lee paints a bleak picture and gives us a little history lesson on debt based economies.You can buy Zimbabwe money on EBay as a collector item. I found a nice collection of 10, 20, 50, & 100 Trillion notes for sale, for only $14.95 If you don't believe it can happen, click on trillion.Zimbabwe's money used to be worth something, until President Mugabe endorsed taking land from the "rich" and giving it to the "poor". This redistribution led to land laying idol since the new owners didn't want or know how to work. Agricultural exports plummeted, spending continued, resulting in hyperinflation.The spending that Congress is passing and the Fed is funding are leading us down this path. The dollar is sinking and oil, gold, silver, base metals and other commodities are heading higher, in many cases hitting six-month highs. Commodities are one safe haven to protect your assets.Our trade balance will get worse as energy costs go up, and our government blocks drilling where the oil is, to increase domestic supplies.Oh! Bama promised not to raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000 per year. He did not promise that we would have a sound currency as he pursued his agenda. This is the easiest way to steal wealth from retirees, investment funds, pension funds, endowments, and other citizen's assets that will not adjust with inflation.I hope U.S. Dollars are not being sold on EBay as collector's items in a few years.How do you mitigate the danger? If your portfolio is full of long-term holdings that you have held through thick and thin, look to add some inflation hedge plays. Mining companies are a great place to look, the price of their commodity is increasing and mining costs are down. Base metals that are required by industry in an economic recovery are moving higher along with precious metals. Some of the ETFs we use are SLV (silver), GLD (gold), PTM (platinum), KOL (coal), and GDX (gold miners). Every investor should have at least 10% of their account in precious metals, or some exposure to them through stocks.If you like currencies, look to Canada, Brazil, or Australia. These currencies enjoy an economy backed by strong commodity exports and should hold up and even move ahead of the dollar. ETFs that follow these economies or currencies are ENY, EWZ, and FXC.You may also want to add some exposure to energy. We like USO (oil), DXO (Ultra crude), UNG (natural gas), and UGA (gasoline). As energy prices go higher, alternative energy becomes more competitive. Look no further than FAN (global wind), NLR (nuclear), PBW (clean energy). The added wind behind the backs of these plays is government funding and tax incentives.I do not mean to scare you, you probably already are. If not, you will be shortly, as the dollar is heading lower as news gets worse. We are careening down the highway of stagflation brought on by out of control spending by the government. Unemployment is headed higher (everyone cannot work for Uncle Sam), interest rates going higher, and inflation is just around the corner.The stock prices of your long-term holdings may not keep up on an inflation-adjusted basis. You need to adapt a strategy to hedge your portfolio against the probable future.

Holyfield and Rahamn sure, also his fight with Vitali was a barnburner whilst it lasted, but i don't put much stock in the Tyson fight. It's probably close to a decade removed from Tyson's prime, and at least 4 or 5 years removed from when he was still a very good HW.

But the Tyson fight was the highest selling PPV of all-time at one point, so people who may not have felt like tuning in to see Lewis fight Rahman would have seen the Tyson fight and had that fight remain his signature win.

Wow, the K2 must have really done something to piss Big George off after he opened the door to Wladdy's dressing room prematurely prior to his ring entrance! Nah, I can see where Foreman is coming from but I think it will be just like Lewis and Holmes in the fact that both Klitschko bros will be appreciated long after they have retired.

wlad should change his style. if he doesnt want to be aggressive
he has to be more like ali. dance around , show boat
and fight like a dancer style of boxer. nothing wrong with not being
aggressive, how aggressive is mayweather.
if he fought like a boxer, mover he will be more popular
the problem is he fights like a flat footed brawler but without the aggression
he should just dance about and fight like ali in future
and he will get more fans

That is undoubtedly a big factor in why Wlad will not leave much of a legacy behind but the other factor that has to be mentioned is the weakness of the current heavyweight division.

George is only telling how it is. Sure Wladimir Klitschko will be more respected once he retires but he wont go down in the 'great' fighter category. If only Wladimir was more exciting and let his hands go more often instead of sitting behind the jab all night. Sometimes it takes half the fight till he unleashes a single right hand.. Its hard to like Wladimir as a boxer with his boring styler, but he is a great ambassador for the sport.

'Hope Against Hope' explores education in New Orleans
New Orleans did not volunteer to become a laboratory for experiments in revitalizing public school education. But the widespread destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 led to a series of actions that have almost completely altered the city's schools.
The Louisiana Legislature placed many New Orleans schools, already underperforming and troubled, in the state-run Recovery School District. Most are now charter schools. »Read Full Article

Chamber Theatre blossoms again with lighthearted 'Jeeves in Bloom'
Given the miserable spring we've been having, I probably don't need to explain the appeal of a play titled "Jeeves in Bloom," the second of Margaret Raether's three stage adaptations of the P.G. Wodehouse stories and novels featuring Bertie Wooster's ever-capable valet.
Under Tami Workentin's direction, Milwaukee Chamber Theatre produced the first of these light comedies, with Matt Daniels as Jeeves, in 2010. In "Bloom," Workentin again directs and Daniels returns as Jeeves. The remaining characters and actors are all new, as is the setting. »Read Full Article

Back on topic, it's no good that Nintendo has a pending lawsuit against them (I'm sure they have some great lawyers working for them though), let's not forget that this is just the beginning. Nintendo is a powerful corporation, and knowing their hardiness they will bounce back. With the Wii's sales, not to mention the booming popularity of the DS, Nintendo's revenue would surely make up their losses (should there be any based on the outcome of the trial).

I started knitting at age 8 and learned all the rest as I went along - crocheting, sewing, tatting, latch hook, macrame, quilting, needlepoint, leather work, and woodworking. I became a professional seamstress and got into quilting big-time. These days, I mostly concentrate on knitting, crocheting, needlepoint, quilting, and woodworking. I began doing my own designing when I was laid up in a full leg cast. Since then, I have created over 200 of my own designs in various mediums, the patterns for which I sell everywhere and anywhere. I decided to sell my patterns individually, since I hate to have to buy an entire book to get the one or two that I want.
I do sell some hand-made items from my own designs, including woodworking items made by myself, at:
Snowflakes are not just for Christmas any more. I designed this afghan because snowflakes are my favorite winter theme, as well as my favorite Christmas theme. The idea haunted me and I designed the afghan and then had to wait for the inspiration for the border. I did not want to do just a "single crochet around the out side edge". The border is a unique design of my own, which duplicates the slip stitch joining of the motifs. I have used it in other designs since, including a beach shoulder bag .As well as the pattern for the hexagon motif, there are instructions for half-motif fillers on the long edges, so you will not have those big gaps between the hexagons.
Finished afghan measures about 45" by 61".
I have this pattern already made, or made to order, in my Etsy shop at http://etsy.com/shop/originalsbyterry, as well as other hand-made items, including woodworking, from my own designs.
Be sure to check out the rest of the crochet designs in my shop, as well as my other original knit, crochet, and needlepoint patterns.

AFTER DAN LAUER LEFT HIS VICE PRESIDENT'S job at the Royal Banks of Missouri in May 1989, he began packing around water-filled condoms. A banker gone bonkers? Nope. The condoms were a prototype for Waterbabies, a Lauer brainchild that has since ballooned into what's likely to be the season's hottest-selling baby doll.
A Waterbaby "doesn't buzz or beep," says Lauer, 30. "It's just, well, very real." The reason: Warm water poured through a valve in the doll's back gives it lifelike bulk and temperature. The tots stay toasty for only two hours, but even when chilled, says Lauer, kids like their wiggle.
"I know it will be our No. 1 doll by far," says John Haunschild, a merchandise manager for the 80-store Venture chain. After Cabbage Patch Kids, he adds, "it's the best doll of the last 10 years."
Waterbabies, now on store shelves nationwide, were born of memories from Lauer's youth in St. Louis. On summer days, he and his five siblings fashioned dolls out of water balloons, drawing a face on one, dressing another in diapers. Lauer also liked to play entrepreneur, and at age 5 told his mother, Betty, he wanted a suit for Christmas. She bought him a space suit. He nearly wept. What he wanted, Mom says, "was a three-piece vested suit with a briefcase."
After getting a B.A. in business from the University of Missouri—St. Louis, Lauer wore banker suits for six years while harboring entrepreneurial dreams. When a sister mentioned the water dolls, he went to work, showering toy companies with hundreds of letters. Finally landing an interview at Mattel, he spent a night crafting samples out of balloons and condoms. Alas, by morning all he had was a soggy mess.
Undiscouraged, Lauer returned to the kitchen of his Clayton, Mo., bachelor apartment. He experimented with dozens of varieties of polyvinyl chloride, the plastic generally used in dolls, until he found a formula that didn't leak and had the softness he sought. A six-week, 1990 market test in St. Louis yielded a stunning 65,000 orders, and the following year Playmates, maker of Ninja Turtle toys, bought the rights to Lauer's baby. The inventor in Lauer was delighted; the proud parent was not. "I felt like my baby had left," he sighs. "I started suffering from empty-nest syndrome." But there are compensations. So far, stores have ordered 2.8 million Waterbabies that will retail for an average of $19 and could bring Lauer nearly $2 million in royalties.
Hey, Doll, What's Cookin'?

LAUREL, Miss. — The second floor of an activity center at a rural Mississippi church collapsed during an evening youth service, sending about 70 people crashing down and injuring 35 of them, survivors and authorities said today.None of the injuries were life-threatening, an official said.Pastor Tommy Davis at Freedom Baptist Church in Myrick told The Chronicle in Laurel that the floor at the activity center collapsed as dozens of youth were holding a worship service Wednesday evening. Witnesses described an ominous-sounding rumble before the floor crashed down."In the middle of the student service, the floor — which is a second-story floor — gave way, causing about 70 students to fall," Davis said. "But it's got to be said that no one was seriously injured, no one was trapped. God's hand was certainly taking care of the kids who were in that building."Survivors reported brief moments of panic before calm was restored.Linda Cranford, a spokeswoman for the Jones County Fire Council in the region where the church is located, told The Chronicle that 35 people were hurt but none of the injuries were life-threatening. She said a 16-year-old girl with a head injury was taken to a hospital in Hattiesburg.She said 19 others were taken to a local hospital closer to the church. Authorities said most of those hurt were later released and witnesses described injuries including scrapes, cuts and possibly some broken bones. Several others were treated and released at the church grounds and didn't require further medical attention, reports said.Cranford did not immediately answer calls from The Associated Press for comment early today.Students said the collapse came unexpectedly while the service was under way, starting with a rumble in the building. Tori Hodge, 18, told the newspaper there was an initial scene of panic before calm prevailed."We heard a huge rumble and the floor collapsed and people collapsed with it," she said. "Everbody heard it. The floor started crumbling and waving. People started falling through the ceiling, just like you'd see in a movie."There was no immediate report on what caused the floor collapse.Davis praised the leaders of the worship service for quick action in restoring calm. He said the students, ranging between the 7th and 12th grade, had all been reunited with their parents afterward.A number of the shaken students had only minor injuries and were treated and released at the scene once they were checked out by emergency crews, authorities said. Worried-looking relatives stood by amid the flashing lights of ambulances and emergency vehicles in the aftermath.Jones County Sheriff Alex Hodge told local media outlets that the drop was about 12 feet in the floor collapse.Dispatcher Amanda Lofton at the Jones County Sheriff's Office told AP early Thursday she had no additional information to release about the injured and no information on a possible cause of the floor collapse.Page 2 of 2 - Myrick is a small rural community northeast of Hattiesburg in southeastern Mississippi.

The Kantara Initiative created the Pledge Page as a vehicle for debate and discussion about a digital identity professional association, its value to practitioners, employers and other technical and business professionals. IDnext has signed and wonders if you will.
This year's Trust in the Digital World conference dedicated part of the first day to round table talks, where participants could discuss any topic they missed in the programme, subjects they wanted to elaborate on and issues they'd like to discuss with peers. Esther Makaay (SIDN) wrote a report on these round tables.
On Friday 23 September we'll host the IDnext golf tournament for the third time.
Since the first two tournaments were highly appreciated by all participants, we organize another golf day this year. In the afternoon of Friday 23 September, the IDnext golf day will take place at Rijswijkse golf.

Modern portfolio theory (MPT) is a theory of finance that attempts to maximize portfolio expected return for a given amount of portfolio risk, or equivalently minimize risk for a given level of expected return, by carefully choosing the proportions of various assets. Although MPT is widely used in practice in the financial industry and several of its creators won a Nobel memorial prize for the theory,[1] in recent years the basic assumptions of MPT have been widely challenged by fields such as behavioral economics.
MPT is a mathematical formulation of the concept of diversification in investing, with the aim of selecting a collection of investment assets that has collectively lower risk than any individual asset. This is possible, intuitively speaking, because different types of assets often change in value in opposite ways.[2] For example, to the extent prices in the stock market move differently from prices in the bond market, a collection of both types of assets can in theory face lower overall risk than either individually. But diversification lowers risk even if assets' returns are not negatively correlated—indeed, even if they are positively correlated.[3]
More technically, MPT models an asset's return as a normally distributed function (or more generally as an elliptically distributed random variable), defines risk as the standard deviation of return, and models a portfolio as a weighted combination of assets, so that the return of a portfolio is the weighted combination of the assets' returns. By combining different assets whose returns are not perfectly positively correlated, MPT seeks to reduce the total variance of the portfolio return. MPT also assumes that investors are rational and markets are efficient.

Highball With The Devil
Highball With The Devil
He came to conquer what he could, but he held back
'Cause his tongue was tired and shy.
So he laid the money down and he drank up, put the sparkle in his eye.
Sittin' down you saw his paunch, so he stood up,
And he gazed across the room.
The toxin squeezed the head, so he slipped back.
He knew he left his seat too soon. A-Haw.
Come the morning, we'll be waiting and weilding the power to paralyze.
So we state now, for the record you brought this upon you.
Paralyze, agonize, terrorize.

State to share info on wildlife violators
MONTPELIER — A hunter whose license is suspended in Vermont can no longer hunt in 38 other states.
The Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife announced Monday that it's joining those other states in sharing information about hunting and fishing license suspensions to deter people from violating hunting, fishing and trapping laws elsewhere.
Under the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact, any person whose license privileges are suspended in one compact member state will have his or her licenses suspended in all other states that belong to the compact.
Vermont chief game warden, Col. David LeCours, said Monday that the compact is an added deterrent for Vermonters who might be tempted to violate fish and wildlife laws at home and then expect to hunt, fish or trap in other states.
"Also, we didn't want Vermont to be one of the last states where bad actors from other states can come to violate our fish and wildlife laws," LeCours said.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Goalie Emily Bashara stopped 44 shots but the Green Knights still had a field day...

Some breeders prefer to do business another way: "I don't bring my kittens to shows," says Diane Sweeney, a Maine Coon breeder at Coronadocats Cattery in Coronado, Calif. Sweeney encourages interested people she meets at shows to come to her home. This can be a plus for a prospective buyer because it guards against an emotional and impulsive decision and allows you to get a look at a kitten's environment, assuring the buyer the cattery has provided a caring, uncrowded and healthy habitat for your future pet.
Even if you don't find the perfect cat at your first show, you'll go home with valuable information and contacts for the future. Take notes and ask breeders for their business cards.
How to Find a PedigreeKittens are ready to leave their mothers when they reach 8 to 16 weeks of age, depending on the breeder's preference. Check back with the breeders you met at a show or look for a breeder directory in the back of cat magazines such as CAT FANCY, Cats USA or Kittens USA. Classified ads may also appear in local newspapers at this time, or you may spot breeders' cards on local bulletin boa rds. A call to local veterinary clinics can also provide you with information.
If you'd prefer an adult pedigreed cat, consider buying a retired show or breeder cat. These adult cats, around 3 to 4 years old, cost less than show-quality kittens, and they may even be grand champions. An advantage to choosing an adult cat is its personality is already known. Your show contacts and the Internet are good resources for researching this possibility. Many catteries advertise on the Internet, offering photographs and biographies of their retired friends. Some will even ship a cat to you.
Prices vary for a pet-quality kitten or an older cat and from coast to coast. For example, on the West Coast, Abyssinian pet-quality cats are about $500, breeder females are $800 and show-quality cats are $1,500. Even a pet-quality Sphynx is a high-end cat at $800 each, whereas a more widely available Maine Coon averages about $300.
Sylvia Orchard Park, NY
I got my beautiful girl at a cat show. She was a 9-month old Maine Coon kitten and really lovely. I've had her 7 years now. I knew the Maine Coon breed and like their personality, and their "lynx" like looks. She sat on my lap and fell asleep in my arms, I knew she was for me. However, being a cat she hasn't done this since! She's very good with my dog and they've gotten along great from the first. I love the cat shows and go every year. I just like the Maine Coons and at the shows find them to be extremely intelligent - all seem to watch what is going on and do not miss anything! I used to take care of neighbors Maine Coons when they were away. Sadly both cats have since passed away. Thanks for all your articles!

Albert shines at Buttons
October 04, 2010 at 1:06 PM
I went with the Carter family to watch a Racing For Buttons karting event at the PFi circuit near Grantham, which is a European standard Kart track.
Well being a professional race engineer, I have worked in a lot of formulae and with a lot of drivers including everyone from gentleman drivers up to world champions. Therefore I'm not easily impressed, and in any case I went to PFi not as an engineer but as a friend, but I couldn't help notice that this little kid can really drive. I had seen him before at his other home in the US, on a wet test day somewhere in Florida, but this was the first time 'in competition'.
Now when the kid's Dad is Andy Carter, it begs the question; is it the machinery? Well I was impressed to see that it wasn't the Kart, because I observed the speed trap on the main straight and there were many quicker Karts than his. He was also on old tyres so it wasn't just speed from new rubber. Where his speed comes from is from corner turn in through apex, and this affects exit speed and therefore also the speed onto the next straight.
Furthermore he is super smooth with it, these are the fundamentals of going fast, the things that you just can't teach to some drivers, and he has them, and hes 7!
Watch out for this kid!

Bearing Witness: Cornerstone of the New Evangelization
The New Evangelization is all about testimony. Each is called to be a witness i...
The parents of the Virgin Mary, the grandparents of Jesus, are known by the names of Joachim and Ann from a tradition dating back to the Second Century as noted in the document known as the Protoevangelion of St. James. Their feast in July 26. Here St. John Damascene extolls them.
Ann was to be the mother of the Virgin Mother of God, and hence nature did not dare to anticipate the flowering of grace. Thus nature remained sterile, until grace produced its fruit. For she who was to be born had to be a first born daughter, since she would be the mother of the first-born of all creation, in whom all things are held together.
Joachim and Ann, how blessed a couple! All creation is indebted to you. For at your hands the Creator was offered a gift excelling all other gifts: a chaste mother, who alone was worthy of him.
And so rejoice, Ann, that you were sterile and have not borne children; break forth into shouts, you who have not given birth. Rejoice, Joachim, because from your daughter a child is born for us, a son is given us, whose name is Messenger of great counsel and universal salvation, mighty God. For this child is God.
Joachim and Ann, how blessed and spotless a couple! You will be known by the fruit you have born, as the Lord says: By their fruits you will know them. The conduct of your life pleased God and was worthy of your daughter. For by the chaste and holy life you led together, you have fashioned a jewel of virginity: she who remained a virgin before, during and after giving birth. She alone for all time would maintain her virginity in mind and soul as well as in body.
Joachim and Ann, how chaste a couple! While safeguarding the chastity prescribed by the law of nature, you achieved with God's help something which transcends nature in giving the world the Virgin Mother of God as your daughter. While leading a devout and holy life in your human nature, you gave birth to a daughter nobler than the angels, whose queen she now is. Girl of utter beauty and delight, daughter of Adam and mother of God, blessed the loins and blessed the womb from which you come! Blessed the arms that carried you, and blessed your parents' lips, which you were allowed to cover with chaste kisses, ever maintaining your virginity. Rejoice in God, all the earth. Sing, exult and sing hymns. Raise your voice, raise it and not be afraid.
This passage on Sts. Joachim and Ann is taken from a sermon by St. John Damascene, bishop (Oratio 6, in Nativitatem B. Mariae V., 18.104.22.168: PG 96:663. 667670 ) delivered ca. AD 740 and is used in the Roman Office readings for the Feast of St. Joachim and St. Ann on July 26.
