1/2 cup warm water
3 teaspoons dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
4 cups high-gluten flour, plus more for dusting
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil


Place the warm water in a warm mixing bowl and add the yeast. Stir to dissolve the yeast, and let stand 3 minutes. Add the salt and the sugar and stir to combine. Add the flour and the olive oil and mix, using your hands until the dough comes together in a form that you can knead into a ball without the dough sticking to your fingers.
Wash and dry your hands. Remove the dough ball from the mixing bowl and place on a smooth cutting board. Knead the dough, occasionally dusting it with a teaspoon of flour at a time, until you form a smooth, firm, homogenous ball, about 15 minutes.

Place the dough ball into a lightly oiled bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen cloth. Place the bowl in a warm area (like above the refrigerator) to rise until the dough is doubled in size, about 2 hours. At this time, punch the dough down,

Newsweek has a wonderful online spread on politics and religion up today, so expect a lot of questions, hee...

In the article here, about Christianity attempting to break away from the image formed by politics in the past years: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15566654/site/newsweek/page/6/

is this quote:

Cal Thomas hits a common refrain: "What are Christians known for? We're against abortion, against same-sex marriage. But what are we for?"

So, as a Christian, what do you think you are known for in the everyday world besides the picture painted by politics?

For non-Christians, what's your answer to Mr. Thomas' question?

I have this theory that Mono Culturalism sped up the race to secularism in Europe. This would be analagous to mono cropping exhausting the soil. The great Cathedrals of Europe are empty because everyone was Christian and became culturaly bereft of new ideas, new impetus. Just like planting corn on the same field over and over. Look at Israel, it is one of the most secular countries in the world, because they are all jews so whats new to talk about, they have heard it for centuries. I think that maybe in the US the proliferation of many Christian sects has kept some freshness in the dialog. But I am curious about why American Christians don't take the lead from the Europeans and pack it in. After all, Christianity is largely a European construct. Don't beleive it? Think of Rome and all its pronouncements many followed even by Protestents. If France grounded the Airbus, a European construction, we would look into it. Europe has "grounded" religion, a European construct...

If you look around you, everywhere, billboards, commercials, tv shows, magazines. Everybody they show has the so-called perfect " barbie doll image ". Making every girl think she has to starve herself to be beautiful. My cousin is 8 years old and already she thinks shes " fat " and needs to wear makeup to be beautiful. Before you know it anorexia will be a common disease among young kids. And its not like guys help this. Many of them demand girls to be skinny. And other girls are also like this.

So what im trying to say is, why does the media portray this image of perfection. Don't they ever think of how this .. effects peoples image of themselves, and whats beautiful..

The girl I like give me signs that she likes me but sometimes she acts so differently.. avoiding me and making me believe that she is not interested. there are moments when she is getting close and moments when she is pretty distant. i don't know how to get closer... i feel like she's playing games... is she just being childish?
