another old standard for me.

I have been playing with my own wild starter for several months now. And I have really liked the results. I just do a basic starter (water flower) and feed it and work it. It is down to just taking care of it (feeding) several times a week. I used a basic technique from Chad Robertson of Tartine (the best bread I have ever had). You can Look Inside on Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Tartine-Bread-Chad-Robertson/dp/0811870413 And the basics of making a starter are available on page 45. It can be fun, but the trick is to listen to what the bugs want. I have not tried any other yeast (bought). I really wanted the dough to express what is right here.

Think it is going to a a close and tense season for Mercedes this season. Various frustrations around the track for several teams. Too bad for Kimi - had a good race ahead of him, and Alonso always seems to be there way outdriving his car.

and they make a slightly larger set...

Newspaper dampening base makes sound so nice....

Yeah - my first release that I got from them had lots of surface noise. I contacted them and they sent me a new one (not even asking to return the other). I would contact them - I am sure they will make it right. (I should spin mine to make sure - I am a little behind on my listening)
