It's easy to lower the gluten content in chappatties by using besan, also known as gram flour or chickpea flour. It has a nutty taste, and it's high in protein. I've never made one hundred percent besan flour chappatties though, as I'm assuming they'd be too brittle and tough. With these, I used fifty percent organic whole wheat flour, as well as a few other tricks to notch up the taste and texture.
1 cup besan flour
1 cup whole wheat flour (or more)
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin seed
½ teaspoon dried chillies
1 tablespoon melted ghee
1 cup whole wheat flour (or more)
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin seed
½ teaspoon dried chillies
1 tablespoon melted ghee
1 cup hot water
2 tablespoons melted ghee (perhaps less if you're sensible)
3 green onions, chopped
¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves
a few mint leaves (optional)
3 green onions, chopped
¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves
a few mint leaves (optional)
Besan, or chickpea flour is stickier than wheat flour, so I don't like getting it on my hands. Because it produces a tougher and stickier dough, kneading is much more easily done with a machine, so I suggest that if you have one, use it.
In the machine's bowl, add all the dry ingredients and stir, then add the ghee and stir some more. Pour in the hot water, and set the machine on to slow speed to begin, and move it up to medium once the flour is largely incorporated. Here In Alberta, which is dry as dust most of the time, our flours tend to be very dry, and we need extra water.
My friend Jeanne, who bakes bread nearly every day, advises me to add the full amount of water to begin with, and then add extra flour if the dough feels too wet. Add the extra flour just a tablespoon at a time.
You know you have the right consistency when the dough doesn't try to glue itself to your fingers.
Don't add too much flour, as you'll be adding a bit more later when rolling these out, and if too much flour is used, the dough will be dry and brittle. Once the dough is well mixed, remove the stirring tooll and attach the dough hook. Knead the dough for at least seven minutes. The dough should feel springy and cheerful when it's done. The machine is excellent for this, because it won't complain about the stickiness, or the amount of time spent kneading.
You can let it rest for up to a couple of hours, or you can use it right away. Separate the dough into golf ball sizes. Beginning with the first ball, flatten it, then on a very lightly floured surface, roll it out. Brush on a thin coat of ghee, and sprinkle on some onions and cilantro leaves. A bit of chopped fresh mint is delightful too, if you have it.
Fold the chappattie over and roll out again. Although I can get them nice and round on the first go, I have never yet managed to roll them out round the second time. Hopefully I'll improve with practice.
|My roundness is lost after the stuffing and folding!
My non-stick griddle works best when I have it on 5, with 12 being the top temperature. Many cooks go with a hotter griddle, but I wind up scorching the dough, and making a mess. Once upon a time I had a cast iron griddle, which worked very well, but I gave it away, and now I'm on a hunt for another.
Anyway, you don't need to grease the griddle. Pick up the rolled chappattie, and if it's too dusy with flour, brush off the excess and place on the griddle. In a few moments in will begin to change colour. Use a spatula or back side of a spoon and brush the top side with a thin coat of ghee. Gently press down on air bubbles. Flip it when it's a darker beige all over. Brush the next side with ghee and let cook, still pressing down a bit on the air bubbles.
You don't need to hang over it during the entire cooking time, you can roll out the next chappattie, but it's always nice to make these with two people, one rolling and one flipping and buttering. Flip over one last time, let cook a bit more, and remove to a warming pan. Each chappattie should be finished in about two to three minutes. You can brush more ghee on when laying it in the warming pan, if you wish. Ghee, (clarified butter) always improves the taste, but do think of your innocent arteries.These can be eaten with just a bit of plain yogurt and Indian pickles for a simple meal, or can be a side dish to a big feast.
|A blurry picture of a fabulous feast! Still learning the DSLR fanciness.
The stuffing can be varied to almost anything. I haven't tried it yet, but crumbled paneer would be nice, and chopped peanuts would be mighty delicious. What would you use? Please drop me a line in the comments below!

In 2001, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) created a program to explore Earth's largely unknown ocean for the purpose of discovery and the advancement of knowledge. This program, now part of NOAA's Office of Ocean Exploration and Research (OER), continues to advance NOAA and national goals to better understand the ocean through discovery, research, technology development, outreach and education.
OER responds to emerging scientific issues leading to discoveries and new technologies that benefit society. The accomplishments highlighted here are examples of the breadth, diversity, reach and importance of ocean exploration.
Getting ahead of the spill: Exploring Gulf of Mexico deep sea habitats
A close-up image of Lophelia pertusa coral taken by a remotely operated vehicle 1,450 ft depth. Credit: Lophelia II 2009 Deepwater Coral Expedition: Reefs, Rigs, and Wrecks.Data and information from more than 15 expeditions since 2001 provide perhaps the biggest source of pre-Deepwater Horizon ecosystem information on deepwater benthic habitats in the Gulf of Mexico. The foundation of baseline information is proving highly valuable to scientists trying to measure potential change that may be connected to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill. OER continues to be involved in damage assessment and long-term restoration efforts.
- Initiated a multi-year series of expeditions in 2004 focused on unique deepwater habitats in the Gulf of Mexico with the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement, formerly the Minerals Management Service. The partnership provided information that enhanced the understanding and protection of the ecology and biodiversity of deep-sea communities.
- Repurposed two expeditions in 2010 to obtain early and valuable data about the potential advance of oil and dispersants and to assess possible impacts on ecosystems.
- Hosted a national workshop to collect input from the scientific community on future exploration and research in the Gulf of Mexico.
- Supported the engineering of an underwater mass spectrometer coupled with an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), used by the Coast Guard during spill response to detect hydrocarbons in the water column. A second mass spectrometer developed by OER was used by scientists during the spill response.
- Won the 2006 and 2007 Department of the Interior's Cooperative Conservation Award and the 2006 National Oceanographic Partnership Program Excellence in Partnership Award.
- Conducted a summer 2011 expedition in the Gulf of Mexico to investigate applicability of new technology to map natural and man-made hydrocarbon seeps.
- Responded to educator and student interest in the Gulf by developing Lessons from the Deep: Exploring the Gulf of Mexico's Deep-Sea Ecosystems Education Materials Collection, and offered a three-week online educator professional development to nearly 700 participants from 21 countries and 46 states.
- Supported development of the Gulf of Mexico Methane Hydrate Seafloor Observatory. It is estimated that up to 60% of the world's global carbon reserves are located within methane hydrates.
NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer: America's ship for ocean exploration

Credit: Randy Canfield and NOAA.NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer, the only federal ship dedicated to systematic ocean exploration, began operations in May 2010. After the U.S. Navy transferred the former surveillance vessel to NOAA in 2004, OER worked in partnership with NOAA's Office of Marine and Aviation Operations to design, refit and ready the ship for explorations. The ship has a state-of-the-art multibeam sonar system, a science-class remotely operated vehicle (ROV) with high-definition video cameras and advanced telepresence technologies to connect personnel, images and data from the ship and ROV to audiences ashore in real-time.
- Collaborated with NOAA's Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS) to map priority areas during the ship's sea trials in 2008 and 2009. The areas included 35% of Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary (NMS) and 7% of the Gulf of the Farallones NMS. It also included 91% and 31% respectively, of the areas proposed to be added to those sanctuaries through pending legislation. In total, the ship mapped 2,226 square statute miles off central California.
- Collected bathymetric and habitat data in 2009 and 2011 to support National Ocean Service and National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) priority deep-coral activities.
- Discovered an extraordinary 1,400-meter gas plume in the water column near the Mendocino Ridge off California using the ship's state-of-the-art mapping system.
- Supported NMFS in sampling plastics in the 'Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch' and collecting plankton during a record 5,000 nautical mile ocean transect.
- Conducted a May 2011 community workshop to develop high priority exploration targets in the Atlantic Basin.
- Partnered with NMFS in a 2011 joint expedition with NOAA Ships Okeanos Explorer and Pisces to test various sonars in mapping Gulf of Mexico seeps.

An international team collaborated on a 38-day, two-ship expedition to explore the depths of Indonesian waters. The expedition was the maiden voyage of NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer and featured live video from the seafloor to Indonesian and U.S. scientists in Exploration Command Centers (ECC) ashore.
- Mapped more than 15,000 square miles of seafloor, including a seamount rising nearly 12,000 feet from the bottom, and discovered several unknown seamounts.
- Conducted 27 ROV dives, the first deepwater dives in Indonesia's Sulawesi Sea.
For the first time documented deepwater biodiversity in the Coral Triangle's Sulawesi Sea, imaging possibly 40 potential new coral species and 50 potential new species of other ocean animals.
- With the Exploratorium in San Francisco, conducted live webcasts bringing mission explorers at sea in contact with teachers, students and the general public in the museum and via the web.
- Produced education materials on the Ocean Explorer website in English and Bahasa Indonesia.
- The expedition was part of a larger Indonesia-NOAA partnership in areas of exploration, fisheries, food security, climate observations and tsunami warnings.
- Developed an educational brochure and special activity-based fact sheets in English and Bahasa Indonesia to help raise public awareness of the importance of exploring Indonesia's deep sea. Through partnership with SeaWorld Indonesia, students received Duta Samudra (Sea Scout) wristbands as they promised to every day think about Indonesia's ocean, learn something new about the ocean, and tell someone else about Indonesia's deep ocean.
Pioneering telepresence technology for science and ocean science literacy

Credit: NOAA Okeanos Explorer Program.Since 2003, OER has partnered with the Institute for Exploration (IFE) and Dr. Robert Ballard whose vision of ocean exploration through telepresence technology has scientists ashore actively participating in expeditions at sea. Telepresence technology will increasingly connect ocean expeditions with scientists, newsrooms, classrooms and living rooms, helping to advance science and raise ocean science literacy through the excitement of real-time ocean discoveries.
- Partnered with the National Geographic Channel in 2004 to give audiences unprecedented access to a telepresense-enabled expedition in a one-hour special from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown, including live views of RMS Titanic more than two miles deep on the ocean floor.
- Supported the first participation of an international science team, not at sea, but in shore-based ECCs at the University of Washington and the University of Rhode Island during the 2005 Lost City Expedition in the mid-Atlantic.
- Advanced NOAA's telepresence capabilities with live Internet broadcasts of images from an ROV on a 2007 ONMS expedition in the Gulf of Mexico.
- In July 2010, had Dr. Ballard's ship Nautilus in the Mediterranean and NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer in Indonesia conducting simultaneous telepresence-enabled expeditions. The University of Rhode Island Inner Space Center, the technical hub for telepresence-enabled expeditions, displayed live seafloor video from both ships. Live video from both ships again streamed to the Inner Space Center in August 2011.
- Established ECCs ashore at NOAA facilities in Seattle, Newport, Ore., and Silver Spring, Md., and the University of New Hampshire, the University of Rhode Island, Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut and in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Understanding arctic ecosystem change and supporting the U.S. ECS Project
View of USCGC Healy and Canadian Coast Guard icebreaker Louis S. St-Laurent working together. Credit: UNH/NOAA.Before environmental change in the Arctic garnered media headlines, OER-sponsored scientists were collecting baseline data about marine life in sea ice, in the water column and on the sea floor, as well as geologic and morphologic seafloor data in the ice-covered high Arctic. With partners, OER-sponsored more than 10 major expeditions and projects north of the Bering Strait. OER's Arctic efforts have largely supported the U.S. Extended Continental Shelf (ECS) Project which coordinates U.S. efforts to establish the full limit of the nation's continental shelf-beyond 200 nautical miles. Knowing these limits is important because each coastal state has sovereign rights over its continental shelf including natural resources on and beneath the seabed. Certainty and international recognition of limits help establish stability for development, conservation and protection of these areas.
- Partnered with Canada, Japan and China in 2002 to initiate biodiversity assessment of the high-Arctic's Canada Basin from the sea ice down to the sea floor. Demonstrated that ROV operations could be conducted successfully in the pack ice. Scientists on this expedition went on to lead the Census of Marine Life (CoML) Arctic Ocean Diversity project.
- In conjunction with NOAA's Office of Coast Survey and the University of New Hampshire, OER conducted the first U.S. Arctic ECS-related mapping expedition in 2003.
- In 2004, co-sponsored with the NOAA Arctic Research Office the first joint Russian-American Long-Term Census of the Arctic (RUSALCA) expedition.
- In 2005, sponsored the first U.S. high-Arctic icebreaker expedition dedicated to under-ice ROV operations. Funded the engineering, development and testing of an under-ice capable deepwater ROV.
- Supported four international ECS Arctic mapping expeditions between 2008 and 2011, involving the icebreakers U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy and the Canadian Coast Guard Ship Louis S. St-Laurent.
- Supported the U.S. ECS Project where value of resources associated with an extended shelf have been estimated in the billions if not trillions of dollars, and preliminary studies indicate the nation's ECS may be equal to an area about twice the size of California, or more. OER coordinates much of NOAA's participation in the U.S. ECS Project-an interagency group chaired by the Department of State.
Explorations leading to research, protection and innovation

Credit: Art Howard, FAU/Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute.Baseline information discovered during OER-funded expeditions led to the designation of numerous protected ocean areas. Exciting discoveries during expeditions have also led to research addressing emerging ocean concerns, such as ocean acidification and biodiversity.
- Funded early expeditions that developed information crucial to the emergent NOAA focus on important deep-sea coral habitats. The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act of 2006 included a provision on deep-sea corals. In 2009, NOAA established the Deep Sea Coral Research and Technology Program.
- Funded more than 10 expeditions off the Southeast U.S. coast since 2001 that provided a basis for the South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council to designate Habitat Areas of Particular Concern to protect deep corals and associated communities of life.
- Discoveries from a series of OER-funded expeditions played a major role in designating the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument and in expanding Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary to include the Davidson Seamount.
- With other NOAA offices, crafted the Guidelines for Research, Exploration and Salvage of RMS Titanic.
- With partners in the South Pacific in 2009, discovered and captured high-definition video of a violently erupting volcano 4,000 feet below the ocean's surface. It was the first recording of flowing boninite lava, seen before only on extinct land-based volcanoes a million years old or older. Discovery of this lava helps scientists understand basic Earth processes.
- With partners, discovered in 2004 liquid droplets of carbon dioxide rising from the seafloor on the Mariana arc of submarine volcanoes. This became a natural seafloor lab to study effects of ocean acidification on ocean life.
- OER expeditions have resulted thus far in 682 science publications (26 audiovisual publications, including photo galleries and television specials; 34 scientific books and/or book chapters; 118 conference papers; 400 journal articles; 72 magazine articles and 32 technical reports including NOAA technical memoranda).
Establishing a biodiversity baseline

Credit: © Kevin Raskoff, California State University, Monterey Bay.OER has long focused on the importance of ocean biodiversity and at-sea efforts to document the diversity and distribution of marine life. That focus was key to the success of the 10-year Census of Marine Life (CoML) project and continues on many OER expeditions.
- More than 50 OER-sponsored projects adopted by CoML between 2002 and 2010.
- OER and the National Science Foundation (NSF) were the largest U.S. funders of CoML-associated at-sea expeditions.
- Established and led a NOAA Biodiversity Team that contributed to interagency efforts to better understand marine biodiversity.
- Between 2002 and 2004, OER focused on salmon, humpback whales, tuna and elephant seals in pioneering NOAA efforts to use animal-borne sensors to significantly increase the pace and scope of ocean exploration.
Discovery and protection of maritime cultural resources
Since 2002, OER has been a substantial source of public funding in the discovery and protection of shipwrecks and other submerged cultural resources. Efforts include expanding the use of emerging technologies and introducing new methodologies to the field. Notably, OER's participation in two RMS Titanic expeditions set a precedent by adhering to the Guidelines for Research, Exploration and Salvage of the RMS Titanic that align with the United Nations model for the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage.

- Supported work on the continental shelf of North America to explore for evidence of early humans in the New World.
- Partnered with Dr. Robert Ballard and the Institute for Exploration to discover shipwrecks in the Mediterranean and Black Seas that trace the development of western civilization.
- Partnered with ONMS and the U.S. Navy to raise the turret of the Civil War ironclad U.S.S. Monitor.
- Funded expeditions that discovered the remains of Trouvadore in the Turks and Caicos Islands, the only slave ship known to be sunk after an international treaty to abolish slavery.
- And as part of AUVfest 2008, OER worked with the Office of Naval Research, teaming with the Navy to apply advanced undersea technology to examine shipwrecks.
The excitement of discovery engages students, educators and the public
Since 2001, NOAA's Ocean Exploration Program has consistently reached out to the public in new and innovative ways to enhance ocean science literacy. OER engages educators and students in real-time ocean exploration to help increase interest in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines and in ocean-related careers. Inquiry and standards-based education materials teach students about the importance of ocean exploration, the technological tools used to explore, and the valuable discoveries that have been made. Each year, thousands of teachers participate in intensive onsite and online professional development workshops.
- 40 million individuals have visited the program's award-winning website. In 2001, oceanexplorer.noaa.gov pioneered the chronicling of expeditions from sea with explorer logs and imagery.
- Developed more than 500 lessons and supplementary background materials over the course of 10 years to convey exploration science and describe the explorers behind each expedition. In 2010 alone, more than 900,000 lessons were downloaded from the website. All educational materials align with the National Science Education Standards and more recently with the Ocean Literacy: Essential Principles and Fundamental Concepts.
- In partnership with 15 Aquarium Alliance Partners around the country, offered on-site professional development for teachers of Grades 5-12, in Earth Science-based curriculum titled Learning Ocean Science through Ocean Exploration.
- In 2010, OER developed The NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer Education Materials Collection Volume 1: Why Do We Explore? and Volume 2: How Do We Explore? along with onsite and online professional development for educators focusing on the importance of ocean exploration related to climate change, energy, ocean health, and human health and on ocean science and technology careers.
- Integrally involved in the development of the NSF-supported Centers for Ocean Sciences Education Excellence (COSEE) Network and in the National Marine Educators Association. Consistently presented at professional conference and published in peer-reviewed journals.
- OER led a NOAA-wide team in a five-year partnership with the Smithsonian Institution and others to envision, develop and open Sant Ocean Hall in the National Museum of Natural History. Since this permanent exhibit opened in 2008, more than 15 million people have visited. The team won the Department of Commerce Gold Medal. OER was integral to the placement of a lead educator in the Sant Ocean Hall.
Did you know?

- OER-funded expeditions in the Gulf of Mexico used Dr. Edie Widder's "Eye in the Sea," a camera and light system designed to be undetectable by deep-marine organisms. When the camera was deployed for only 86 seconds, it videotaped a previously unknown six-foot squid. Another mission deployed the system in complete darkness where an electronic lure flashed patterns of light. One pattern repeatedly elicited a significant response from other organisms that flashed back, suggesting rudimentary communication with marine life.
- On one OER-funded expedition, deep-sea animals were brought to the surface without harming their eyes, using light-tight, pressurized boxes developed by an OER partner. This led to an unexpected discovery of ultraviolet vision in these animals. Such vision capability was not expected in the darkness of the deep-sea.
- Animal-borne sensors significantly increase the pace and scope of ocean exploration, saving money and time while providing data describing areas of the ocean difficult for humans to access. For example, OER funded a mission in Greenland's Baffin Bay where sensors were placed on narwhals to gather critical ocean temperature data. Results indicated warmer winter ocean temperatures since last measured there in the early 2000s - an important finding in our understanding of climate change.
- The OER Digital Atlas displays a 10-year, comprehensive map of expedition locations and provides a central point of public access to expedition-specific data, information and outreach materials for nearly 150 expeditions.
- The OER Video Data Management System provides wide discovery and access to expedition videos, images and documents via NOAA Central Library's online search. More than 2,400 online documents were accessed by more than 382,000 unique visitors in 2010.
- OER funded a number of expeditions using autonomous undersea vehicles (AUVs) to increase the pace and scope of exploration.

BELOIT - In February, School District of Beloit faculty and staff spoke out by the hundreds at a town hall-style meeting held at Beloit Memorial High School, strenuously objecting to what several said were chronic discipline problems, administrative lack of support, large class sizes and more.
As the district has moved into a new year, are conditions and morale any better?
After the town hall meeting the Beloit Daily News launched a major project intended to take a deeper dive into the district's discipline issues, staff complaints and efforts to create improvements. Over the full week the newspaper will publish its findings.
No doubt, the School District of Beloit has its challenges. It serves a community in which, statistically, the population is poorer and less educated than most in the state. Incomes and housing values are low by statewide comparisons. That limits revenue opportunities locally for the district, which is one of the most heavily subsidized by the State of Wisconsin as a result.
Academically, the district struggles as well. Recent statewide report cards demonstrated Beloit's overall performance ranks well below state averages as measured by testing. Likewise, as one of Wisconsin's more diverse districts, Beloit continues to grapple with a measurable achievement gap separating racial groups.
If changing the dynamic starts in the classrooms, the message from staff at the town hall meeting was frustration that persistent discipline issues from a relatively small number of individuals often prevent teachers from focusing on students who want to learn. Over the past few years, a significant number of experienced teachers have chosen to leave the district because of such issues.
Student discipline also has been on the minds of some students. At an Oct. 24 board meeting, Beloit Memorial High School senior and board of education student representative Evelyn Mendoza said she's heard complaints about discipline this fall from her fellow classmates. She said some students are misbehaving and not caring what's going on in the classroom. When a teacher sends them to a discipline room, she said they often end up being sent back to the classroom. Mendoza said such practices don't support the authority of the teacher.
Stories in this series will present information on the numbers and kinds of serious discipline offenses in the schools; teachers' thoughts on discipline and turnover; the district's response including a major new literacy initiative; and data on the many challenges to children in a district with a 71 percent poverty rate and a city where 63 percent of babies are born to unwed mothers.
The challenge facing Beloit is for the community as a whole, along with service agencies and committed individuals and community groups, to help the school district educate and nurture increasing numbers of children vulnerable to the impacts of poverty and social trauma. At the same time, the district's challenge is to meet the needs of children from strong families who are eager to learn, and also to support staff trying to teach all children in their classrooms.
At the town hall meeting, dozens of teachers emphatically expressed concerns over lax student discipline interfering with overall classroom learning, along with growing class sizes. One common complaint was students being sent out of class, only to be quickly returned by the building administrator. Some teachers had been hit, kicked and spat upon. Some said a small percentage of students were preventing other kids from learning by their continual disruptions.
In response, the district reviewed its code of conduct with all students and staff and each student, staff member and family was required to sign an acknowledgment form. The district also devised more clear procedures around its policy on using cell phones.
But again, at the end of the school year, a number of teachers chose to leave. The newspaper spoke with some of them about why.
In 2016-2017, 76 teachers left, following 85 teachers who left in 2015-2016. In 2016-2017, five administrators left following the 10 who left in 2015-2016.
The district also has been a net loser in Wisconsin's public school open enrollment process, and the loss has been accelerating. There was a 24 percent increase in Beloit resident families choosing not to enroll their children in the School District of Beloit this year, compared to the 2016-2017 school year. On the third Friday of each school year Wisconsin districts report enrollment numbers, including the number of students enrolling in or enrolling out. In September of 2017 there were 685 students enrolling out of the Beloit district and 151 enrolling in, for net loss of 534 students. It is up from 2016 when 553 students were enrolling out, and 164 were enrolling in for a net loss of 389 students.
If the net of those enrolled-out students instead had chosen to attend Beloit schools, state aids could have been as much as $3.8 million higher for the district.
All public schools are non-selective, meaning they are required by law to turn away no student who is eligible to attend as a resident of the community. While acknowledging the significant challenges of educating substantial numbers of students experiencing poverty and social trauma, School District of Beloit officials told the newspaper they are resolute and committed to educating all children. Administrators say they work to avoid expulsions when discipline problems arise, trying to keep students in school and away from the streets and temptations.
Those officials say the district is working harder than ever to be proactive, stepping in with literacy interventions, mental health programming and other initiatives intended to serve the many students who are living with trauma. District officials are also excited about a new administrative position added to address early literacy intervention for children age birth to 3, hoped to improve reading abilities. Although the challenges are great, the newspaper was told by several people that staff morale is improving and there is a renewed focus to improve school climate.
At this fall's convocation, teachers were visibly excited and hopeful for a fresh start as a new year began.
Superintendent Tom Johnson acknowledges there are discipline issues, but he insists there are erroneous perceptions about Beloit schools and the district is continually working to overcome them. (Johnson was placed on leave late last week; the newspaper interviewed him earlier.)
Johnson said most students are well mannered and some schools are filled with real joy. He encourages anyone who doesn't believe it to contact him for an unannounced tour.
The numbers tend to bear out what Johnson suggests. The most egregious offenses in the schools are caused by less than 10 percent of the student body.

Just recently, Visual Studio 2008 kept failing with a System.OutOfMemoryException when doing a build. The problem seems to have been due to inadequate Windows virtual memory. I upped the value of the paging file and, so far, have had no further exceptions.
... 1 hour later... whoops, spoke too soon. A re-installation is now taking place.
[Edit 2/5/2008: Still no luck. I have noticed that massive amounts of data are generated in the temporary ASP.NET files folder (C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files). The other day, VS created over 3Gb of data in there when building a solution that was only 187Mb in size. Might be part of the problem.]

Hi Kubilay,
Unfortunately not. A colleague sent me a link to a solution I haven't yet tried. I shall need to find it again. I shall then post it here. As an aside, I've noticed the problem seems to occur, or be more frequent, after I've viewed an ASPX or ASCX file in design mode.

Are You Required (These Days) To Confess How Many Times You Committed a Mortal Sin?
Good morning, my good people,
A few years ago I heard a priest (whom I suppose we'll call "Priest W", for no reason) give a little presentation about Confession, and thank the Good Lord, almost a whole room of people ended up making use of this Sacrament that evening. Unfortunately, Priest W made a common mistake, which I'm sure you've heard: he said that although people used to confess the number of times they committed their given sins, it's not done like that these days.
And considering that's what I had heard for years and no one ever mentioned doing it the "old way" to me, I was rather surprised to learn that the old method still holds: according to the 1983 Code of Canon Law, "A member of the Christian faithful is obliged to confess in kind and number all grave sins committed after baptism" which have not already been confessed (Can. 988 §1).
Pope St. John Paul II also wrote the same thing in his 2002 Motu Proprio, "Misericordia Dei":
" Since 'the faithful are obliged to confess, according to kind and number, all grave sins committed after Baptism of which they are conscious after careful examination and which have not yet been directly remitted by the Church's power of the keys, nor acknowledged in individual confession' (Can. 988 §1), any practice which restricts confession to a generic accusation of sin or of only one or two sins judged to be more important is to be reproved. Indeed, in view of the fact that all the faithful are called to holiness, it is recommended that they confess venial sins also."
So what does this mean? It means that if you (unfortunately) have a mortal sin to confess, try your best to remember how many times you ended up doing it. If you can't remember precisely, then make an approximation. If you can't do that, you should tell the priest you really can't count how many times it was but you are sincerely sorry anyway.
Now, that's all well and good, but what if you haven't confessed your mortal sins in number before? You don't need to confess them again, do you? Thankfully not. You confessed them previously with invincible ignorance of the actual protocol. They're gone. You're good to go. But do bear it in mind for the future. Venial sins are not required to be confessed in number (since they're not required to be confessed at all). Still, for the sake of getting into the habit of confessing mortal sins properly (if, God forbid, you have any in the future), it wouldn't be a bad thing to confess even venial sins in number.
As Fr. Z so bluntly put it over here at his blog, "Pay no attention to the liberals who belittle the necessity of confessing in kind and number by stupid phrases like 'laundry list'." It's not about legalism or scrupulosity or OCD. It's about giving an admission of all your sins so that all your sins can be forgiven and, furthermore, it's so that you can know they've been accounted for.
Who knows? It might even deter you from mortally sinning in the future so you won't have to go through the added mental process of counting how often the sin was committed!

Protecting his mom...
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
From the gofundme page:
Update from Juan's family:
"Update on Juan #6:
The doctors are absolutely amazed with the speed with which Juan is recovering. In the words of his pulmonologist, he has never seen anyone recover that fast in his 20 years of practice; anyone else would not be alive at this point. He is no longer connected to a lot of the machines, only the bypass machine, and he is starting to speak to us little by little.
We have told him that all of Shreveport is rooting for him and he is thankful for everyone and your support. God is good and is listening to our prayers.
Again, thank you for your continuous support. Much love to all."
Juan is a friend of mine. Still hard to believe this happened. So glad his condition is improving!
I don't know him or his family, but you can tell that they were all very highly regarded in the Shreveport area. Everyone loves them. Hope he rebounds quickly.
My prayers are with him and and his family...God Bless!
Anybody know how he's doing now? Hope he's doing well.
He's doing a lot better, inflating his lung on his own now. Still sedated but will be awake tomorrow
This Go Fund Me account is within $510 of meeting its $25K goal. This young man is a young BULLDOG and is going to need a lot of help in the coming days and weeks. Please consider donating and helping us get over the top.
He did have one of his lungs removed, but his condition is improving. Another way to show support is just to go eat at his family's restaurant, El Compadre.

"Paytm is an absolutely no brainer, nil-risk product and there is no doubt it is going to win across," said Sharma during a panel discussion on "Disruptive power of technology in financial inclusion."
Sharma said that people in his company's board thought Paytm is the biggest risk he is taking.
"When we started Paytm I remember people in my board telling me, Vijay you are taking the biggest risk of your life by building a payments business in a country where people are so comfortable using cash."
According to Sharma this was the biggest myth that Indians who are poor and do not have financial inclusion are interested in keeping the cash to themselves.
"Infact Indians are the people who if given the power of the smart phones in their hands and then the applications that can be on top of it, they can change every behaviour that you expect them to do."
The Noida-based company was able to get 100 million users on board their platform within the first 15 months of starting operations.
"We were totally shocked to see that in our initial 15 month we crossed 100 million users in the country and those 100 million users were doing more than half of the transactions of every Visa, Master Card and American Express combined in the country. And that has been phenomenally surprising to us. And truth be told I am not surprised," said Sharma.
"I believe as Indians we will build next half a billion platform in this country which will be the benchmark for the world to see," Sharma further said.
Sharma also said during the discussion that Paytm will go on from payments to financial inclusion, wealth management, insurance and fund management among other things.

By Jonathan Hatchman, Food Editor, @TLE_Food
It seems as though just about everything at present has its own assigned, celebratory day – especially within the world of food and drink. Waffles, however, have become so popular that World Waffle Day is celebrated twice with each passing year. The first of these celebrations takes place on March 25th (this coming Friday) – having originated in Sweden as Våffeldagen, marking the first day of spring and thus an opportunity to indulge in a gluttonous feast of waffles. The other Waffle Day, conversely, began in the USA and falls on August 24th, the anniversary of the first US waffle iron's patency, invented by Cornelius Swartwout of Troy in 1869.
So, tying in with the first of the year's two Waffle Days, this week, a buckwheat waffle recipe has been provided by Barnyard – another Fitzrovia restaurant from Chef Ollie Dabbous, owner of Michelin-starred Dabbous.
You will need a waffle iron
Plain flour, 400g
Buckwheat flour, 250g*
Salt, 10g
Sugar, 40g
Eggs, 8
Milk, 1 litre
Molasses, 1tbsp
Butter, 250g, melted
Mix the dry ingredients together.
Whisk together the eggs, milk and molasses, then whisk into the dry ingredients.
Whisk in the butter to the mix. Beat until smooth, but no longer than necessary.
Cook the waffle for 4mins in a hot oiled waffle griddle until lightly crisp on the outside and fluffy within.
* You can replace the buckwheat flour with plain flour for a standard white waffle, to serve with berries and jams. This version lends itself to the maple syrup & smoked butter, with which it is served at Barnyard.
Barnyard can be found at 18 Charlotte Street, London, W1T 2LY.

The product mentioned in this article is called "Cell Recovery Management Platform" (in short CRMP) and might soon enrich our network management suite portfolio. Network Management within Group 2000 means integration with various vendors (for example Nokia or Huawei) in a customer network. The vendors follow ETSI specifications so therefore Group 2000 needs to have in-depth knowledge (of ETSI specifications) in order to translate the individual use cases to vendor specific commands that need to be send into the customers network.
The initial idea for a new product came from a disaster that occurred a few years back when the mobile networks from multiple operators were disturbed for a long period of time. One of the striking things was that the impacted network area was far greater than the disaster area. This was caused by the handover behavior of cell phones when they lost the connection to the network.
Some time ago Group 2000 was in the phase of creating a product called LIMA Network Protect that required in depth knowledge concerning the process of cell phones setting up (and terminating) a connection to an operator network. This knowledge was gathered by investigating numerous (versions of) ETSI specifications. It was during that investigation that we found a way to potentially solve the problem that was mentioned earlier.
Group 2000 encourages employees to develop their own ideas. The process for these new ideas is that they are logged and pitched (internally) to see if the idea has any potential. The initial steps for our new product CRMP were taken. Next will be the creation of some high level documentation that can be used to determine the market potential for such a product. After these phases it is time to work out the requirements of the product so that each of the relevant use cases is supported and the product is compliant to the Group 2000 standards. During this requirements phase we identified a series of challenges that needed to be addressed.
As earlier mentioned, one of the features for a Network management product is the need to support various vendors. Due to the relatively long lifetime of a network element our product will encounter a broad range of different software versions in customer networks. In order to limit the impact and still be flexible enough to support the different setup between operators, group 2000 has chosen for the separation of concerns (SoC) principle.
By implement according to the SoC principle, the Group 2000 software has a base that supports the use case and standard features and some small sections/modules (called provisioning modules) that encapsulate the vendor specific code. The result is a stable base product that has separate small provisioning modules which are impacted when the product encounters a different software version or even a new vendor. The provisioning modules are also the entry points into the customer's network and that means high security requirements and support for multiple connection methods like SSL, SFTP, SSH etc. Next to the method that is used to setup a connection, the product also needs to support parallelism in order to speed up a use case by opening multiple connections to the same network element.
Although Group 2000 software is highly configurable this particular product requires another level of configuration. Group 2000 wants this product to constantly fine-tune the settings on the customer's network. One of the challenges is the varying performance of the network elements. The fastest network element responds in a matter of seconds while the slowest takes about 6 minutes to respond to a command. Normally there is no need to perform a second use case while the first use case isn't finished but that would mean that the product is 'inoperable' for at least 6 minutes. That is not acceptable and to overcome this problem the product is going to use an "event driven process chain" (EPC) that is capable of maintaining events over different use cases. Also the EPC should be capable to react in a preconfigured manner to events that are sent from the network to the product. This feature enables the product to adjust the setup behavior of cell phones in the same area.
These are just a few technical items that need to be addressed in the requirements and of course in the product. Besides technical items there were also a series of commercial challenges, some of those could be addressed in the prototyping phase, others through desk research and interviews with potential customers. One particular challenge which significantly could impact the commercial success of the product was the Net Neutrality legislation as it was implemented in various countries. With the recent harmonization of the net neutrality regulation in Europe, introduction of CRMP now actually facilitates the new net neutrality regulation.
The next phase is the prototyping phase in which a subset of the requirements are build. The subset of the requirements is determined by some standard criteria's like time and costs but, more importantly, features that are either technically challenging or identified as interesting for the market.
After the prototype and the market exploring, Group 2000 has a solid understanding concerning the costs, risks, effort and market potential of creating such a product. If the product still has enough potential then a new product is born and is added to Group 2000's product portfolio.

Jamie Oliver and the Food Revolution
Jamie has a really unique view on this issue. He is not a doctor, a crunchy granola hippie, or a politician. He is a chef and a father who understands the profound importance of food in our lives, not just that we all deserve to eat well, but that eating well is intrinsically connected with living well. We are killing ourselves with our eating habits. The way we eat needs to change and I think what Jamie says so well is that we can change it. Its not that hard. It's about giving people the resources they need to eat and live well. Teach someone how to cook. Introduce kids to fresh food.
Jamie calls it "tangible change." Nothing is more tangible to me than sitting down to a beautiful, freshly made, healthy meal. Get involved in making that change a reality for yourself and for people around you.
What else can we do to help this movement? It's worth checking out this site for new ideas about this movement (and you can vote for you favorite). And watch Jamie's fantastic series on ABC from earlier this year Food Revolution!

As I'm sure everyone has heard, Milan Lucic was traded to the Los Angeles Kings in late June. It was a business decision above all else and something that, unfortunately, had to be done to make way for a better Bruins future.
At first I misread rumors flying around about how and why the Bruins cleaned house over the summer, which means I also misread the dealing of Lucic to LA. I initially thought Lucic was dealt for locker room issues and things of that nature, but after reading his piece in the Players Tribune everything I thought over the summer disappeared.
He put his heart into what he said in the Tribune and actually made me kind of choked up by thinking of all of the things he helped change for the city of Boston.
If you have a handful of minutes to spare, I suggest you give it a read.
I always loved seeing Lucic out on the ice. His last season was kind of a slump-year for him, and that inspired a lot of doubt in how fans thought Lucic actually felt about being a Bruin. But other than a fraction of last season, Milan Lucic played his heart out any time the spoked B was on his chest. He resonated the spirit of Boston and deserved the love he got from New England.
If you don't have the time to read the whole piece here's a few bits I feel like everyone should read:
"When I came into the locker room the first day, I was just so happy to be around NHL players. Zdeno Chara walked in the room, and I was trying not to even make eye contact. I didn't want him to think I was starstruck. I was so nervous and excited."
- I just thought this was kind of weird because someone you see on national television playing in front of the world gets nervous and a little fan-boyish just like a regular guy.
"Hi, I'm Zdeno. Very nice to meet you."
- I don't know why but I laughed reading this. I can picture Chara lumbering across the locker room and saying this in broken English. Love it.
"Boston was full of guys who had my back. One of them was Shawn Thornton. Early on, he gave me some very valuable advice: 'Listen. It's not about how many times you beat somebody up. It's about how many times you don't get beat up. You don't always have to win. Just don't lose.'"
- I miss Thornton so, so much. Things like this are the reasons why. The Bruise Brothers Era was a great period of time in Boston.
"I knew I had to make my presence felt or I'd be on a plane back to Juniors. So my first game, I decided going in that I was going to drop the gloves. Just get it over with, you know? The night before the game, I looked up and down the Dallas Stars roster."
- A lot of talk these days about ending fighting in hockey. Yet here's a guy coming into the league, trying to make a difference, and is willing to drop the gloves just to make himself known right away to earn a roster spot. These guys literally do homework on who they might fight in their next game.
"So I hop over the boards and see Brad Winchester out there. Real tough guy. 6-foot-5. I don't even think I had to say anything. I just kind of looked at him. He knew."
- First shift for the B's. Immediately fights a guy. Is that Boston or what?
"Again, I barely remember the fight. What I remember — actually, what I will never forget — is the sound of the Garden when the referee was taking me to the box.
That roar. Oh my gosh. It's the best.
After that game, I thought, Man, what if we could bring that Big Bad mentality back? This city is ready for it. They love it."
- This proves how much he loved this city. He knew the cost of bringing life into the Boston squad and was willing to do it for Bruins nation.
"This summer, I was working out one morning when a buddy sent me a text. It was a picture of a Tweet from an NHL insider. (I'm not a big social media guy)."
- It kills me how often I hear of players not knowing they're being traded until someone asks them about it. No one deserves to find out anything that way.
"Coming back to the Garden for the first time this week, I'll be battling the butterflies, for sure. Who knows, maybe I'll just go out there and drop the mitts just to get the blood flowing. For old time's sake.
Boston: Thank you. For everything."
-First off I need to see a fight between Lucic and Belesky. Need it.
-Second off, I'm not lying when I say I might tear up seeing him come back on the ice. Boston should put a montage up for him before or even during the game. He deserves that and a standing O.
This isn't the first time Lucic thanked Boston. After he was shipped off he took out an ad in the Globe to give his thanks:
This is what it says if you can't read what's in the picture:
I was 19 when I joined the Boston Bruins, a very young man.
Now at 27, I must say goodbye to this special city. I lived my dream when we won the Stanley Cup. I married my wife here. Both my children were born here. Boston will always be a key part of who I am.
I played in front of a group of fans I will never forget, especially my pals in the North End.
I want to thank the entire Jacobs family, Cam Neely, Peter Chiarelli, Don Sweeney, Scott Bradley and the rest of the Bruins management team; coaches Claude Julien, Geoff Ward, Doug Houda, Doug Jarvis, Craig Ramsey [sic] and Joe Sacco; captain Zdeno Chara and the rest of my teammates; the medical staff, trainers and strength coaches who kept me going; and of course, all the fans and my friends.
Boston embraced me over the years and I would not be who I am personally or professionally without each of these special relationships.
To the people of Boston…
You ARE #BOSTONSTRONG
Milan Lucic
Thank you, Milan. I'm sorry for the times I have doubted you.

What steps did the Allies take to punish the Nazis for their treatment of the Jews?
Extracts from this document...
What steps did the Allies take to punish the Nazis for their treatment of the Jews? With Hitler seeing his luck in the war ending and losing the strong power he held over the German nation he still refused to negotiate with the Allies or to make any realistic defence by pulling back his troops from the front. He blamed everyone else for the ruin with which Germany now faced. He accused the German people of having gone soft and of being unworthy of victory. He considered that the other Nazi leaders were useless. Finally when the end was in sight, he returned to his more familiar theme of blaming the Jews for everything. At no time did he take any personal responsibility for Germanys destruction. Nor did he give a hint of regret for what had happened. With the Red Army pounding Berlin, Hitler retreated to a fortified bunker under his Chancellery, where he decided to commit suicide. On 30th April 1945, Hitler took cyanide and at the same time, shot himself. Goebbels ensured that the remains were burned, and then killed himself. The Third Reich survived Hitler for exactly one week and surrendered unconditionally on 7th May. Meanwhile the British, American and Soviet troops had found the evidence of mass killings and neglect in the extermination camps. ...read more.
The tribunal tried a group of leading Nazis, which included Haydrich's successor as chief of the Reich Main Security Office, and Hans Frank, the Governor - General of occupied Poland. Over the following months the prosecution then continued its task of detailing the whole history of Nazism. Emerging many details about the horrors of the Nazi persecution and death camps. A vast amount of what is now standard history was revealed the first time at Nuremberg. It is possible that the true horrors of the concentration camps would never fully be appreciated without the showing of an American film complied as the camps were liberated. Week after week, the case against the accused built up by the truckloads consisting of documents and eyewitness accounts. There were Himmlers orders for the enslavement and extermination of 'sub - human' races. There was Hans Frank's thirty-eight-volume diary, a history of murder, starvation and extermination, an unassailable indictment of its author. All the horrors of Nazi rule came out: the concentration camps, the experiments and the exterminations. In their cells, the prisoners were clearly shaken by what had been revealed. Even Goring admitted that things seem to have got out of hand, placing the blame more on Himmler than Hitler. ...read more.
The crimes involved were so enormous that the idea of there being no redress was never raised. Not everyone got away with the terrible things they inflicted on the Jews, such as, after the conclusion of the first Nuremberg trial, 12 more trials were held under the authority of Control Council Law No. 10, which closely resembled the London Agreement but provided the war crimes trials in each of the four zones of occupied Germany. About 185 individuals were indicted in the 12 cases. Those indicted included doctors who had conducted medical experiments on concentration camp inmates and prisoners of war, judges who had committed murder and other crimes under the guise of the judicial process, and industrialists who had participated in the looting of occupied countries and in the forced-labor program. Other persons indicted included SS officials, who had headed the concentration camps, administered the Nazi racial laws, and carried out the extermination of Jews and other groups in the eastern territories overrun by the German army; and high military and civilian officials who bore responsibility for these and other criminal acts and policies of the Third Reich. A number of doctors and SS leaders were condemned to death by hanging, and approximately 120 other defendants were given prison sentences of various durations; 35 defendants were acquitted. However many of the people were brought to justice there were still many, many others who weren't. ...read more.

Multilevel "General Policy Equilibria": Evidence from the American Unemployment Insurance Tax Ceiling
Daniel S. Hamermesh, David Scoones
NBER Working Paper No. 5578
In a large variety of multilevel political systems changes imposed by a higher authority alter the equilibrium panoply of lower- level policies. The new equilibrium depends on the type of change imposed and on the relative strengths of and differences among interested parties at the lower level. As an example we describe how the equilibrium parameters of American states' unemployment insurance (UI) systems are changed when the federal government raises the minimum annual earnings on which employers are taxed to finance UI benefits. Even though benefits determine total taxes at a point in time within state systems, bargaining among the interested parties alters the equilibrium level of benefits and taxes. We estimate a `difference-in-differences' model describing total system costs in those states where federal increases in 1972, 1978 and 1983 forced increases in the tax ceiling. Holding constant changes in interstate differences in unemployment, where the federal constraint was binding costs rose roughly 20 percent above where they would have been. The increase was larger in those states where unionism, a measure of workers' legislative power, was greater. The theoretical model and the implied empirical analysis suggest themselves as examples for future research on a variety of topics in labor economics, public finance and international trade.

School Councils are democratically elected groups of students who represent their peers and enable pupils to become partners in their own education, making a positive contribution to the school environment and ethos.
Each September we start with a new set of School Council members. All the children in Key Stage 2 are asked to consider becoming their class representative. Those who wish to participate stand for election within their classes and each class votes for their representative on the council.
We have sixteen School Council members – two children from each Key Stage 2 class. Each of these children can be identified at school by their school council badge. They are: –
3G Mason Webster & Cian Wilson
3M Bowman Byrom & Keira Grindey
4B Alex Craven & Millie Liver
4F Jacob Kennedy & Ashleigh Evans
5B Alice Turton & Charles Hall
5M Kieron Mansfield & Leah McPhilemy
6F Wiktor Sowa & Mia Shepherd
6WF Jessica Titman & Amy Tyson
Members meet every Tuesday at lunch time with Mrs. Farish in 4F. Each member brings along their school council book in which they record ideas given to them from their peers, what we do in our meetings and plans for the future.
In 2014/15, the school council:
• put up a display to tell children who are in the school council;
• organised a poster of ideas from each junior class showing the children's feelings about the proposal to extend our school;
• organised a 'Christmas Jumper Day' to raise money for Save the Children and written a letter to all the parents to explain this;
• taken visitors and prospective staff members on tours of the school;
• and begun to talk to the relevant members of staff at school to try to bring about some changes requested by children in Key Stage 2.
We are planning changes to the school in the new year. All the children are keen to improve our school grounds, equipment and the overall experience of the children throughout the school. We want to hear plenty of ideas from anyone in our school.
