12/22/2023 0 Comments Three levels of scrutinyI think the comparison's pretty apt - not, in the end, the crime of the century - but it's worth keeping in mind that as this hostile Wall Street Journal timeline points out, Whitewater "fade from the campaign" soon after Gerth's March 8, 1992, and surfaced as a huge issue much later and in the White House. So were the "plants." Interest in Obama's Chicago real estate dealings and political ties has been high in the Chicago press, but doesn't have the same array of Beltway forces driving it.ĪLSO: See Glenn Thrush's different take, which compares Rezko to Whitewater, and notes that there was a lot of scrutiny of the latter. On the other, every story about Hillary - say, the Clinton library - is interesting as a campaign story, a story about a past president, a story about history, and an episode in running conflicts between the Clintons and the press that date back 15 years. On one hand, this the Clintons have access to and relationships with senior editors, producers, and hosts. I think there are many more complicated dynamics at work that stem from the long history between the press and the Clintons. At the same time, I don't really buy that many in the press are rooting for Obama in a way that directly affects coverage. With Obama, everything's a discovery, which cuts in the opposite direction when it comes to campaign coverage. After proving this, the court will typically scrutinize the governmental action in one of several three ways to determine whether the governmental body’s action is permissible: these three methods are referred to as strict scrutiny, intermediate scrutiny, and rational basis scrutiny. On his broader point though, there is some truth to the fact the Clinton campaign often talks reporters out of stories by pointing out that they're "old news," because once, at some point in her long record, everything's been written. With apologies to Bill Burton, it's absurd to claim narrowly that "No candidate in this race has undergone more investigations and examinations than Barack Obama has." Did I miss the part where three of of the most aggressive American investigaive reporters, Jeff Gerth, Don Van Natta and Carl Bernstein, devoted years to detailed examination of Obama's life, as they did to Hillary's? Howard Kurtz's story today on Clintonite complaints of media bias is worth a read, though I'm not sure I agree with all that's said in it, by either side, or that I really have a firm grip on the media groupthink.Ī couple of points, though, sure to irritate everyone involved:

12/22/2023 0 Comments Best dutch crunch bread recipeI’ve saved a video in my Instagram highlights showing how to shape the rolls.I’ve split the process over two days but you can prepare this in one day if you wish or keep the dough refrigerated for two days and bake on the third day. It doesn’t require the same amount of close observation as a regular sourdough loaf. This dough can be made to suit your schedule.This recipe calls for bread roll sized balls at roughly 85 grams each but feel free to make larger sandwich rolls.The liquid component of this recipe calls for milk and both dairy and nondairy options work well.You may not need all of the paste and my tip is to be very generous when applying it to the rolls for more pronounced cracks on the surface. The rice flour paste proportions I used were borrowed from Foodgeek’s video here and it works very well.Feel free to replace half of the oil amount with sesame oil. For the rice flour topping, tradition calls for using sesame oil but my recipe here omits it.Store in an airtight container, if necessary. Let cool completely on a wire rack before eating. Let rise for another 20 minutes.īake at 375F for 25-30 minutes, until well browned. Once the rolls have risen a bit and the topping is ready, spread a generous layer on the rolls, trying to use all the topping in a thick coat on the top and sides. Let rise for 15 minutes while you prepare the topping.Ĭombine all topping ingredients in a medium bowl and mix very well. Shape each into a ball (demonstrated here) and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into 6 equal portions. Place in a lightly greased by and cover with plastic wrap. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 4 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add remainging flour a tablespoon or two t a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Using the dough hook attachment, mix at medium speed unti the dough comes together. Add in vegetable oil, salt and about 2 cups of flour. Stir to dissolve and let sit for about 5 minutes. In the bowl of an electric mixer*, combine yeast, water, milk and sugar. Alternatively, you could use it to make some gluten-free crepes instead.Ģ 1/2 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet or 1/4 ounce)ġ cup warm milk (105-110F) (nonfat is fine)ģ/4 cup white rice flour (not sweet rice flour) The topping can be used on other types of bread, including as a topping for regular sandwich loaves, if you only want a little bit of the “crunch” per serving.īy the way, if you have leftover rice flour at the end of this, just go ahead and make another batch. Dutch Nice cheetah print Dutch crunch is yummy :) For my dutch crunch I use: 100 rice flour/water 25 EVOO 5 yeast 10 salt/sugar I usually throw in a little more salt just cause it makes it taste amazing. The size also provides enough bread to not make the topping overwhelming. So, when I make the rolls at home, I like to make them big so that they make hearty, filling sandwiches. Sandwiches are my favorite things to make with this type of bread and if I’m at a deli (only in the SF Bay area, the only places I’ve seen them) that sells them, I will always get it. I didn’t stripe mine, which I suppose you could do by running a fork through the mixture before baking, but appearace doesn’t take anything away from the fantastically crunchy texture and the ever so slightly yeasty taste that complements so many sandwich fillings. Thanks to some of my commenters, we know that this bread is called Tijgerbrood, or “tigerbread” in Holland, named after its striped and textured appearence. On its own, the topping is pleasant, but when paired with some good bread, the contrast is amazing. The name comes from the distinct and unusual topping on the bread, which is made with rice flour, yeast and a little bit of oil, salt and sugar. I mentioned Dutch Crunch Bread on my list of five things to eat before you die. 12/22/2023 0 Comments Vpc1 pianoteqYou can upload and download the manual for the Kawai VPC1 - Virtual Piano Controller VPC1 in the following formats: If you own a Kawai keyboard controllers and have a user manual in electronic form, you can upload it to this website using the link on the right side of the screen.

We can use the aspect ratio calculator tool to calculate the correct width: The image that you see above has a height of 334 pixels. Note it would make sense to round the height to 500 pixels and crop 1 pixels from the top or bottom of the image. The calculator will return the correct height value: 501 pixels Next, I will click the blue "Calculate" button. I can simply enter the following data into the aspect ratio calculator tool above: I know that on my blog I want the image to be a maximum width of 750 pixels. The original downloaded image from was 4240 x 2832 pixels. So when I download an image from I need to quickly and accurately calculate the correct height for the image.īelow you can see an example image from In most cases, when you are editing content for a website, you are more concerned with the width of the image and this is the main constraint factor.Īt DCP we use the aspect ratio tool above to calculate the height of images we add to our blog post content.Īll images added to our blog post content must be a maximum of 750 pixels wide. In most cases, aspect ratios are calculated by the width and height using pixels.įor example, you probably have a TV and heard of 1080p, this is a common HD resolution that has a width of 1920 x 1080 pixels with an aspect ratio of 16:9. Using this free tool will help you to preserve the aspect ratio for both video content and images. Having an understanding of accept ratios will help when you need to resize an image or video clip to fit a specified dimension. A 1:1 aspect ratio, for example, would be a square. You should see the correct size calculated in the "Output Width" field.Īspect ratio is used to describes the ratio between the width and height of an image or video clip. Step 2 - Next enter a specific height into the "Output Height" field. How to use the Aspect Ratio Calculator tool - Example 3 You should see the correct size calculated in the "Output Height" field. Step 2 - Next enter a specific width into the "Output Width" field. How to use the Aspect Ratio Calculator tool - Example 2 You should see the correct size calculated in the "Output Width" and "Output Height" fields. Step 3 - Now select the blue "Calculate" button. Step 2 - Next you can enter the "Resize Percentage" value. Note the "Source Ratio" will be automatically calculated".Example: Enter 1920 for the "Source Width" and 1080 for the "Source Height". Step 1 - To use this tool you need to first enter the "Source Width" and "Source Height". >This is for giclee prints, and giclee printing for Watercolors, watercolor paintings, watercolor artists, oil paintings, charcoal paintings, pastel, chalk, pen & ink, art fairs, art shows, art galleries, galleries, art exhibition, nude art, figure drawing, figure painting, giclée, fine art prints, giclée prints, photographers, photography, photo lab, inkjet, digital printing, artwork, artists.How to use the Aspect Ratio Calculator tool - Example 1 There are many other examples, but this should suffice in understanding the concept. You can have an 8″x12″, but not an 8″x10″. Now for example, if you want to make an 8″x10″ print from a 20″x30″ painting, you will realize quickly that you can’t do it. If you have a 20″x30″ painting, or 20/30 = 10, which equals 2/3, this gives you have a 2:3 aspect ratio. Dividing 18/24 by 6, you get 3/4, or a 3:4 aspect ratio. Factor your width and height to the lowest common denominator and you will have your aspect ratio.įor example, if you have a painting that is 18″x24″, then you factor 18/24 to its lowestĬommon denominator to understand the ratio. Even if you only finished 8th grade, you know how to figure out aspect ratios if you can remember how to factor fractions. Everybody had to do basic fractions to get out of middle school. Understanding aspect ratios can be intimidating, but it’s really quite easy. 12/22/2023 0 Comments Avid media composer crack macYet, this particular editing computer program goes to write compelling videos and ease the duration of a video.
