I modified this baguette recipe and did the following:
Mix 1 tsp yeast with 1 tsp sugar in 1/2 cup of 100F water and let sit for 10 minutes.
Add 1 cup white flour, mix and knead for 10 minutes.
Cover and leave in warm place for 45 minutes.
Pat flat and dust with flour. Fold in half and then half again.
Return to bowl and let rise 30 minutes.
Roll into ball and pat flat until oval and roll up along the long side.
brush egg white long top and place in oven for 20 minutes @ 425F.
It tasted like very plain bread, it could possibly have used some salt(none was added).
After watching a news report(On Global News) on how a couple their 70’s living in rural Nova Scotia was charged(and found guilty (8 months suspended)) for firing a shot in the air to scare off 16 teenagers from approaching their home(despite repeated verbal warnings). I wanted to find the story for reference(and maybe learn more). I started by checking Globals web sites, and while most of the headlines were there, this story wasn’t; So I emailed Global to get what information I could. Their Reply:
Hi Jason – thank you for your email. We don’t post our news stories
from our newscast on our website. Also, due to legal reasons, we are
unable to release our script of the story.

Now it seems to me if a station is going to Broadcast the story to potentially millions, it should be made available for reference. What would you bet that if a site started recording/repeating Globals reports, that the site would soon be sued for copyright violations.
A friend sent me this, maybe this has already been seen by most, but it’s new to me. It’s just interesting enough for me to post.
Let your eyes follow the movement of the rotating dot. The dots will remain only one colour, pink.
However if you stare at the black “+” in the centre, the moving dot turns to green.
Now, concentrate on the black “+” in the centre of the picture.
After a short period, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see only a single green dot rotating.
It’s amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don’t disappear. This should be proof enough, we don’t always see what we think we see
