Some sort of starchy, spongey food exists in most cuisines to dip, hold, absorb, bolster or compliment a meal. Save for latin and cuisine in which the primary grain is corn, most bread-like foods include some sort of yeast, and that development has involved both ancient and recent techniques. Bread is one of the biggest commercially produced products with brands and types earning an entire aisle or two in a typical grocery store; however, bread can be made from home, and it has been for years. div>br />/div>div>Today, I fed my three-day old yeast starter half a cup of flour and half a cup of water. I had googled a recipe, found a few on a blog and started making my yeast with flour and spring water like most instructions denoted. Today, I realized I didnt really understand what I was doing scientifically, and I thought it would be a great opportunity to explore what other people must have discovered while learning to make bread throughout history. So today, I took a quick look at the process of bread making. /div>div>br />/div>div>So the type of bread which hopefully I will see in the next few days if my yeast starter works is sourdough. I like sourdough bread, but some people dont. And there is a process for everyone. Now, how someone came to leave a bowl of flour and water out on the table until it was smelly and bubbling and then made a loaf of bread with that baffles me. But this process creates the leavening agent for much of the bread produced in the western world. And the process is also closely related to the fermentation of beer. /div>div>br />/div>div>So basically, I am fermenting a bunch of ground up wheat in flour on top of my fridge. Im not the first to create a Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis (which was named for its discovery in San Francisco) sourdough starter, although maybe the first person didnt have a refrigerator. This strain of sourdough bacteria has been around for thousands of years, dating back to the middle ages in Europe. However it didnt earn true glory until San Francisco adopted Sourdough Sam as their mascot for the 49ers. During the Klondike gold rush, sourdough recipes were brought to Alaska and the Canadian border. /div>div>br />/div>div>Today, the same strain produces over 3 million tons of sourdough bread yearly. And the historic bacteria is making a shorter and lighter history on top of my refrigerator as I write. /div>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08796410995592120907 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08796410995592120907 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Julia/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttps://blog.u-s-history.com/2020/05/breaking-bread-brief-history-of.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://blog.u-s-history.com/2020/05/breaking-bread-brief-history-of.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2020-05-25T12:22:00-07:00>12:22 PM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/5885694889378361361/92141678745495137 onclick>419 comments:  /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-290232502>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID92141678745495137&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID92141678745495137&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID92141678745495137&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475); return false; target_blank titleBlogThis!>span classshare-button-link-text>BlogThis!/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID92141678745495137&targettwitter target_blank titleShare to X>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to X/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID92141678745495137&targetfacebook onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height430,width640); return false; target_blank titleShare to Facebook>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Facebook/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID92141678745495137&targetpinterest target_blank titleShare to Pinterest>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Pinterest/span>/a>/div>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-2>span classpost-labels>/span>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-3>span classpost-location>/span>/div>/div>/div>/div>div classinline-ad>script typetext/javascript>!--google_ad_clientpub-1873177152979692;google_ad_hostpub-1556223355139109;google_ad_width300;google_ad_height250;google_ad_format300x250_as;google_ad_typetext_image;google_ad_host_channel0001;google_color_borderFFFFFF;google_color_bgFFFFFF;google_color_linkCC6600;google_color_url333333;google_color_text333333;//-->/script>script typetext/javascript src//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js>/script>/div>          /div>/div>                  div classdate-outer>        h2 classdate-header>span>Tuesday, May 5, 2020/span>/h2>          div classdate-posts>        div classpost-outer>div classpost hentry uncustomized-post-template itempropblogPost itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/BlogPosting>meta contenthttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1563352210-7f31e92992e9?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 itempropimage_url/>meta content5885694889378361361 itempropblogId/>meta content911914809912449307 itemproppostId/>a name911914809912449307>/a>h3 classpost-title entry-title itempropname>a hrefhttps://blog.u-s-history.com/2020/05/oregon-history-and-westward-migration.html>Oregon History and Westward Migration - The Beginnings /a>/h3>div classpost-header>div classpost-header-line-1>/div>/div>div classpost-body entry-content idpost-body-911914809912449307 itemproparticleBody>a hrefhttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1563352210-7f31e92992e9?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 imageanchor1 styleclear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;>img altgreen grass field during daytime border0 height266 srchttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1563352210-7f31e92992e9?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 width400 />/a>When I tell people I am from Oregon, there is an assumption that comes along with it. Oregon is the wild west, where even still, you will seldom find a resident who isnt connected somehow to the land, adventuring and camping in the great outdoors, and living a sort of home-spun life. All of these attributes, one could argue, are tied up in the rich history of pioneers who trekked the 2,170 mile trail from eastern settlements to make a new life in the west. The westward expansion of the united states was catalyzed by several movements such as the need for caretakers of Oregon and Californian land, a desire to acquire and trade resources such as fur and spread ideas and religion into the largely unsettled western parts of the U.S.br />br />br />a hrefhttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1568512064320-23d6ff5e31d5?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 imageanchor1 styleclear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;>img altseal in body of water border0 height208 srchttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1568512064320-23d6ff5e31d5?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 width400 />/a>The first group of people to take the year long journey west to Oregon were fur trappers. Their aim was simple and relied on the resource of our furry Oregon friends ancestors such as beavers and foxes. They sold these furs as a commodity and made a living doing so in the early years of the a hrefhttps://u-s-history.com/pages/h189.html target_blank>Oregon Trail/a>. The California Gold Rush was also a great pull in the migration westward.br />br />br />The fur trappers were followed by missionaries who would be crucial deliverers of information to pioneers taking the journey later by a combination of horse-drawn covered wagons and by foot. Among the most noteworthy missionaries were a hrefhttps://u-s-history.com/pages/h317.html target_blank>Marcus and Narcissa Whitman/a> who landed eventually in Walla Walla Valley Washington (now home to the selective accredited liberal arts institution, Whitman College).br />br />So, the Oregon trail brought a disparate group of folks from many different places (often beginning their collective route in Missouri) to the Oregon Territory established by the a hrefhttps://u-s-history.com/pages/h1029.html target_blank>Oregon and Washington Treaties/a> in the 1800s. From this time on, in Oregon, many settled in a hrefhttps://u-s-history.com/pages/h2190.html target_blank>Salem/a> which is now our capital. Salem was founded in 1842 after Jason Lee rediscovered this territory which was formerly known as the Calapooya Indian village.br />br />br />br />div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08796410995592120907 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08796410995592120907 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Julia/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttps://blog.u-s-history.com/2020/05/oregon-history-and-westward-migration.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://blog.u-s-history.com/2020/05/oregon-history-and-westward-migration.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2020-05-05T14:23:00-07:00>2:23 PM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/5885694889378361361/911914809912449307 onclick>307 comments:  /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-290232502>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID911914809912449307&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID911914809912449307&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID911914809912449307&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475); return false; target_blank titleBlogThis!>span classshare-button-link-text>BlogThis!/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID911914809912449307&targettwitter target_blank titleShare to X>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to X/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID911914809912449307&targetfacebook onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height430,width640); return false; target_blank titleShare to Facebook>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Facebook/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5885694889378361361&postID911914809912449307&targetpinterest target_blank titleShare to Pinterest>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Pinterest/span>/a>/div>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-2>span classpost-labels>/span>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-3>span classpost-location>/span>/div>/div>/div>/div>div classinline-ad>script typetext/javascript>!--google_ad_clientpub-1873177152979692;google_ad_hostpub-1556223355139109;google_ad_width300;google_ad_height250;google_ad_format300x250_as;google_ad_typetext_image;google_ad_host_channel0001;google_color_borderFFFFFF;google_color_bgFFFFFF;google_color_linkCC6600;google_color_url333333;google_color_text333333;//-->/script>script typetext/javascript src//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js>/script>/div>          /div>/div>                  div classdate-outer>        h2 classdate-header>span>Monday, May 4, 2020/span>/h2>          div classdate-posts>        div classpost-outer>div classpost hentry uncustomized-post-template itempropblogPost itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/BlogPosting>meta contenthttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1509941654768-e0a6884be9b2?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 itempropimage_url/>meta content5885694889378361361 itempropblogId/>meta content3075330960514538156 itemproppostId/>a name3075330960514538156>/a>h3 classpost-title entry-title itempropname>a hrefhttps://blog.u-s-history.com/2020/05/history-of-cancelled-events.html>History of Cancelled Events/a>/h3>div classpost-header>div classpost-header-line-1>/div>/div>div classpost-body entry-content idpost-body-3075330960514538156 itemproparticleBody>With Covid-19 ravishing the event calendar to a degree unprecedented all over the world, I paused to consider - has there ever been a time like this before? The short answer is, no. There has never been a time as detrimental to the flow of events in the United States as the 2019 pandemic we are currently facing. Although, we have taken significant changes in course when it comes to terrorism, and natural disaster. How did we see the light at the end of the tunnel, then? Here is the rundown on some of the most significant events cancelled historically in the U.S.A.br />br />If we know one thing about Americans, it is that a large number of us love sports. Whether or not you fit into that category, perhaps these a hrefhttps://www.nicholashillgroup.com/news/2017/4/7/top-5-big-events-cancelled-throughout-history target_blank>events/a> will ring a bell:br />br />b>The New York City Marathon/b> has been held annually since 1997.

It has been a force of community and uniting people in the big apple, but that changed for a brief moment in 2012 amidst the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. It was a moment of contention for city officials and runners alike, most of which had arrived from all over the country to partake in the race already. In the end, the point that city funds should be allocated for disaster relief must take precedent over hosting the race, and the a hrefhttps://www.google.com/url?clientinternal-element-cse&cx002033744443348646021:jwng1otxkgw&qhttps://u-s-history.com/pages/h2122.html&saU&ved2ahUKEwiUn_jbjZvpAhVMrZ4KHfFjCHEQFjAAegQIARAB&usgAOvVaw2i4hZ_veTleszd2-3YdEzl target_blank>New York City/a> Marathon, for one year, dissolved.

That year, b>The Boston Marathon/b> was subject to a disheartening terrorist attack. Two brothers placed bombs close to the finish line of the race. Three runners were killed, and 260 people were injured in the incident.

However, the cultural and political differences between the two countries escalated after the war. The United States had always been wary of Joseph Stalin and the Soviet Unions communist culture. Likewise, the a hrefhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Union target_blank>USSR/a> grew frustrated at the United States neglect toward their incorporation within the international community of leaders, as well as their delayed entry into the war which caused the death of thousands of Russians.br />br />After World War Two, the brewing conflict between the two countries came to a peak in what we now regard as the a hrefhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_War target_blank>Cold War/a>. Contrary to World War Two, The Cold War wasnt fought by men on battlefields and in trenches. It was built by a network of threats largely created by the emersion of nuclear technology. Florida comes into play due to its proximity to Cuba, where the soviet union was harboring weapons. Cuba and soviet Russia have a complex relationship which was prompted by Fidel Castros introduction of socialist ideals in Cuba, and followed by Soviet a hrefhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikita_Khrushchev target_blank>Nikkita Kruschev/a>s arms race with the U.S. to develop and test an a hrefhttps://www.britannica.com/technology/atomic-bomb target_blank>atomic bomb/a>.br />br />img altperson standing beside of pink convertible car height640 srchttps://images.unsplash.com/photo-1530779189757-4a7734852dfd?ixlibrb-1.2.1&ixideyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&w1000&q80 width425 />br />(photo of Cuba)br />br />The conflict was further escalated when spy photographer Richard Heyser captured an image of a Soviet SS-4 medium-range ballistic missile being constructed in Cuba. The soviets saw the introduction of this missile in Cuba as a way to level the playing field between the two countries, and U.S. contention with Cuba was also at play after the failed a hrefhttps://u-s-history.com/pages/h1765.html target_blank>Bay of Pigs invasion/a> in 1961.br />br />Fortunately, contentions were relieved after the Cold War. Even during the tensions of these times, Cuba and the United States wrote letters to one another. In one final letter, soviets agreed to remove missiles in Cuba id the U.S. did the same in Turkey. a hrefhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_John_F._Kennedy target_blank>The Kennedy administration/a> agreed to this on the terms that they would also not invade cuba.

It encompasses 2,357 square miles, the largest a hrefhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtropics target_blank>subtropical/a> region preserved today. It took nearly a decade to claim the land as National Park Territory, part of the reason being the vast array of ecosystems preserved by the singular park which also borders a hrefhttps://www.nps.gov/bicy/index.htm target_blank>Big Cypress National Preserve/a>, a hrefhttps://www.nps.gov/bisc/index.htm target_blank>The Biscayne National Park/a> and a hrefhttps://www.nps.gov/drto/index.htm target_blank>Dry Tortugas National Park/a>. The Everglades and surrounding areas preserve at least nine different ecosystems, and these serve as the home to the most diverse set of a hrefhttps://www.evergladesholidaypark.com/flora-and-fauna-everglades/ target_blank>plant and animal species/a> in the United States. There are also numerous a hrefhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_invasive_species_in_the_Everglades target_blank>invasive species/a> to the Everglades including the a hrefhttps://www.fws.gov/refuge/florida_panther/wah/panther.html target_blank>Florida Panther/a>. These panthers, now endangered, used to roam throughout the southeaster United States, but they are now restricted to about 5% of their historical breeding grounds. They, along with other invasive species aggressively adapted to the Everglades, and are now considered part of the meticulously monitored network of a
