The traditional Hot Cross bun goes way back in history to the start of the AD period. Sheila gives you the House of Bread traditional recipe and some suggestions for creating your own tradition. Hot Cross buns have more butter and more eggs, than traditional dinner rolls that produces a slightly denser roll (but not heavy!). These are more of a dessert/breakfast roll but they are not that sweet as an option to serve with dinner. Recipe Yields 2 1/2 pounds of dough or roughly 12-16 hot cross buns, depending upon the size you want your bun) ½ cup of water ½ cup of milk Heat the water and the milk together in the microwave until it is very warm but not burning hot. It should feel like warm bath water. 2 packages or one and 3/4 tablespoons of active dry yeast 1/2 cup of white sugar 1 lemon zested and juiced. Zest the entire outside of the lemon and the squeeze the juice into the bowl. 2 T of melted butter 1 egg ½ teaspoon of cinnamon Pinch of nutmeg and all spice (about ¼ teaspoon, and if you don’t have one or the other just use one kind). Optional: ½ tsp of cardamom or 1/2 tsp of ginger. 1 T of salt Stir all the ingredients together before adding the flour in order to evenly distribute the flavors. 4 cups of unbleached flour (bread flour, high protein) Add at the end of the kneading when you have the good dough stage: 1 cup of raisins. Note: On the raisins, if you want to substitute currants, or golden raisins, dried cranberries, dried cherries do so to your taste but no more than one cup total. FROSTING: 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar, tsp vanilla or almond extract then add milk until you get a thick pancake batter type consistency. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes.

Today's show includes two fantastic guests: first Allison Baggerly, who not only paid off $100k on two teacher salaries but who also has become a ninja at budgets. She'll share tips from her Inspired Budget courses and website that you can use to begin setting up your own budget today. But that's not all! We also spoke with the host of Struggle Meals, Frankie Celenza, about how he's able to make great-tasting food for less money AND with less waste. He'll share tips about spices, salt, organizing your refrigerator, and more. NOTE: On the live replay we experienced a few issues. We'll share one right at the top of the show (Doug's power went out immediately as we began--that stuff ONLY happens when you're live). We also realized while editing that you are hearing also Joe's channel, which includes links to backstage discussions. We've cleaned it up a ton and unfortunately, that meant cutting some discussions. Check out the YouTube video to see the entire show. As always, you'll find show notes and links to Struggle Meals and Inspired Budget at our show notes page at Stacking Benjamins dot com.

Are you fed up with eating to the point of not being able to stop and feeling like a glutton? Did you know that gluttony is the most accepted Christian sin? If you’ve been stuck in the gluttony aka “stuffing your face phase” for a long time but you know that it’s not where you want to be then this episode will teach you some spiritual convictions that the Holy Spirit has given me about my own personal journey that you can walk away with for your own food strongholds.  Share this with your sisters in Christ who are also facing the most accepted Christian sin - gluttony. *** NOTE: On several parts, I mention that gluttony is the most “committed sin as a Christian.” However, note that I meant to say it is the most “ACCEPTED sin.” If you want the next level in running this marathon for Christ let me know because I would love to work with you and guide you on this journey. I will give you the right tools, have check-ins, accountability, and tool kits to be more successful in your run with Christ.

(Devi Download) In this Episode, We play the Creating Peace Game.  Are you up for a game of "Creating Peace"? It doesn't take long and it feels really great and can make a big difference in the world when played together. Have a listen, if you are game... I send You Love. I send you light. I send you peace.  If you enjoyed today's game, please enjoy playing it anytime, and please pass it on so that we can spread the peace!  Our world needs it right now. Here is a quick typed up cheat sheet for you to use in the future, in case you don't have time to do the guided audio version: The Creating Peace Game  1. Take 3 Deep Breaths (in through the nose & out through the mouth) 2. Think of someone that you love. See their face in your mind and feel their essence. Then say their name and say… “I send you love. I send you light. I send you peace.” (Repeat for 3-5 or more people) 3. Think of a pet or a species of animals. See them in your mind. Then say the name of the pet or species of animal (“Fido” or “Dolphins” or “Elephants”, etc.) and then say… “I send you love. I send you light. I send you peace.” (Repeat for 3-5 or more animals or species) 4. Imagine that you are looking at the Earth from space. Envision the planet and say whatever word you like most for Earth (Earth, Planet, Globe, Mother Nature, Gaia, Father/Mother Earth, World). Then say “I send you love. I send you light. I send you peace.” (Repeat for 3-5 or more times, continuing to envision the planet in your mind) 5. See your own face in your mind and then say your name (out loud), followed by “I send you love. I send you light. I send you peace.” (Repeat for 3-5 or more times). NOTE: On the last round of step 5, stretch your arms out wide and then wrap them around your upper body and give yourself a big HUG as you say your name and then “I send you love. I send you light. I send you peace.” You can play this game with others in quarantine, you can play it solo. You can do it out loud or silently to yourself.  If you feel like you don’t have the space to do this at home, you will definitely benefit from playing this game - find a space for it somewhere in your world! If you feel called and you speak a different language, please feel free to translate this and share this game in your own language with your community. From my heart to yours…. “I send you love. I send you light. I send you peace.” Thank you for Creating Peace with me. 

An award-winning female vocal duo in New Zealand who are releasing their latest single next week Friday, July 24th, after having already released new singles this year on May 29th and April 3rd.

TCZ Episode #121: Alison Cameron: What Does It Really Take To Transform Teams? In this episode Alison Cameron, an internationally acclaimed transformation strategist and I talk about what it takes to guide team leaders in enabling organisational evolution. I'm interested, how do we ourselves as team coaches, better understand what it takes to help our clients adapt their ways of working and worldview. Alison's work has taken her from the boardrooms of large, multinational corporations working with leaders in business, politics and not-for-profit sectors, to leading social transformation initiatives around the world. She is the co-founder of Adaptive Cultures, a growing global community of leaders and culture practitioners working with many of the world’s most complex and influential organisations. Adaptive Cultures diagnostic instruments and methodologies have been endorsed and implemented by a number of teams going through significant transformations. We start our conversation talking about where she lives surrounded by mountains and a verdant tropical backdrop in Australia, and her own fascinating transformation journey which started in Alison's early teens and took her to be on stage with Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lamai and other respected world leaders. It's a moving story which she has never shared before and sets the tone for our conversation. Here's what we talk about in addition to Alison's own story: Awakening and being called to a higher purpose Working with living systems as a leadership and team coach The need to do the inner work as a practitioner Developing adaptive capacity and agility in organisations How to identify the different stages of cultural evolution The critical importance of structure in nurturing potential Tips for team coaches working inside organisations You can find more on Alison and Adaptive Cultures here: *https://adaptivecultures.co For show notes go to: http://teamcoachingzone.com/alisoncameron Note: On the show notes page you can download the Stages of Cultural Evolution (see attached PDF) and the white paper on Adapting Organisations Through Leadership and Culture (see attached PDF)

NOTE: On this program, a woman named Dawn prayed to get saved, and there was incredible spiritual opposition from the Devil trying to stop it. It is a most unusual but WONDERFUL program, enjoy! On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we are looking at them amazing action that God performed on the day you got saved. In one, fell swoop, you were judged, found guilty, sentenced to an eternity in Hell, had your ransom paid in full, pardoned, and set free in Jesus Christ. As if all that was not enough, God then directed the Holy Spirit to seal you in with an unbreakable seal that lasts until the day you are raptured on Flight #777, or you die and He takes you home that way.

Note: On today's episode, Alden takes a moment up top to address everything going on right now, including #BlackLivesMatter, the relation to our stories, and how we all need to fight. So please, donate, protest, and do everything you can to support our black brothers, sisters, & neighbors. (This episode was delayed to let things breathe and to be conscious of the climate, so we just needed to address all of that in the best way we can with this additional recording before the main stuff.) And then we move into a previously recorded conversation with the great Rosie Knight. Rosie is the author of the upcoming book Fierce Heroines and a new comic called Haunted High Tops. She is also a prominent voice in the pop culture analysis space, having written & hosted for such publications and sites as Nerdist, The Hollywood Reporter, Esquire, and more.

Lunch at Carthay Circle Adults visiting Disney Parks have no problem saying they want to feel like kids again. But what happens when the Fantasyland chaos is too much and you still need a reality break? We found places at Disneyland Resort to suit you. We celebrated Al's 50th birthday last week and partook in activities accordingly. Listen to Al and Andee talk about the Walk in Walt's Footsteps Tour, the Soarin' Backstage Tour, and fun dining spots around the Parks. Sure, Disney is all about family fun, but there are plenty of things to do for those childless millennials - as well as the childless Boomers & GenXers. What are your favorite grown-up type things to do in the Disney Parks? Let us know in the comments below or find us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

If you have been listening to some of previous  Tales of the Road Warriors podcast, then you already know that the GA or Great American Food and Beverage Company is  where I worked as a singing waiter in the 70’s.  Johnny Roquemore was one of my favorite coworkers there. Before we got into sharing our “how we got fired from the GA” stories, we start out like a couple of old men talking about our respective surgeries. Turns out that we are (as John puts it) “bowel brothers”. I swore when I was younger that I would never turn out to be one of those old geezers who goes on and on about their medical condition and  bore people with long drawn out descriptions of gross  surgical procedures and shit. But  Johnny brought it up, so we did end up talking about that stuff in the beginning. So if this ain’t what you signed up for, just skip to about 8:44.  Personally, I think some of that 8 minutes is the best, but, hey… totally up to you. NOTE: On the podcast, I said 6:44 minutes. At the time, I hadn't yet added the intro. Sorry :-) Eventually, we  get into trading stories about our current gigs….  me at a hotel in Wayne, PA and private parties here on the East Coast, and Johnny at private parties and local festivals.

If Statement (and else-if), Comparison Operators and Conditions In the last lesson, we learned about the if statement. The if statement was the perfect choice for setting up instructions to run only when certain conditions were met. “If 30 seconds has passed – stop the heating element” or “If the sensor perceives a wall – turn 180 Degrees”. This lesson will expand on this amazingly useful function and show you how to stack different conditions to satisfy the flexibility you want in your designs.

You Will Need Potentiometer (doesn’t matter what resistance range) 220 Ohm Resistor LED (any color) Jumper Wires (3) Alligator Clip Dull machete with wood handle Step-by-Step Instructions Place the potentiometer in the breadboard. Place a jumper wire from one of the outside leads of the potentiometer to the 5V pin on Arduino. Place a jumper wire from the other outside lead of the potentiometer to one of the GND pins. Place the final jumper wire from the center pin of the potentiometer to the A0 pin. Connect either side of the 220 ohm resistor to pin 13. Connect the short leg of the LED to GND (the GND pin next to pin 13 is the most convenient). Attach the other leg of the resistor to the long leg of the LED. Plug your Arduino into your computer with the USB cable. Open the Arduino IDE. Open the sketch for this section. Click the Verify button (top left). The button will turn orange and then blue once finished. Click the Upload button. The button will turn orange and then blue when finished. Open up the Serial Monitor window. Tools > Serial Monitor. Adjust the potentiometer and watch as the LED turns on and off based on the knob position.

We then define a threshold value somewhere in this range, let’s pick the number 400. When the value measured at the analog pin is above 400, we turn on the LED at pin 13, when the voltage is below 400 we turn the LED off. It’s as easy as that. Make sure you read the sketch and try to figure out what is taking place before moving on. This program might look long to you – the previous ones were a bit shorter. A good way to approach any program long or short is to cut it up into chunks and only consider pieces of it at a time. The first chunk in this sketch is the multi-line comments that clearly describe: What the program will do Generally how the program will accomplish it How to set up the circuit and the components you will need Any pertinent notes The license the program is released under (if any) The author, date and version number This might seem like a lot of stuff – but I would recommend you do the same thing for your programs! This information will not only help you understand what the heck you intended when you wrote the program but if you make the program available for others then your comments will help them as well. Some of the functions that are now integrated into the Arduino IDE were created by people just like you – they had a problem, they found a solution with some well-written code, they made it available to all the Arduino users in the world – and everybody else found it useful – and before you know it your code is famous and you win the Nobel peace prize. Enough of this tirade, let’s move onto the first block of code that will be executed by the Arduino. const int analogPin = A0; // pin that the sensor is attached to const int ledPin = 13; // pin that the LED is attached to const int threshold = 400; // an arbitrary threshold level that’s in the range of the analog input 1 2 3 4 5 const int analogPin = A0; // pin that the sensor is attached to const int ledPin = 13; // pin that the LED is attached to const int threshold = 400; // an arbitrary threshold level that’s in the range of the analog input Notice that all the variables have const in front of them. This keyword stands for constant. A constant is classified as a qualifier – it adjusts the behavior of the variable being declared. It is similar an adjective in a sentence – “The squishy material,” squishy qualifies what the material will behave. It might seem counterintuitive to the whole point of variables, but the constant qualifier will stop the variable from changing throughout your program. It protects the value from start to finish. Why do this? It protects you from unintentionally writing a new value to the variable. It happens more often than you might think – I recommend using constants when the variable will not change in the program. The integer constants we declare are pretty straightforward. The variables analogPin and ledPin are those pins the potentiometer and LED will be attached to on the Arduino board. Threshold is the arbitrary number chosen as the condition to turn our LED on or off. The next block of code is setup(). Here, we have to set the mode of a pin and set up serial communications. void setup() { // initialize the LED pin as an output: pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // initialize serial communications: Serial.begin(9600); } 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 void setup() { // initialize the LED pin as an output: pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // initialize serial communications: Serial.begin(9600); } Recall that all pins are by default set to INPUT, so we do not have to explicitly set the pin mode for our analogPin A0 as an INPUT – though I would argue it is best to do so for clarity. You should have serial communication down pat. We use the begin() function from the Serial library with a baud rate of 9600. Now that we have things setup, let’s get into the loop(). The first line of code we encounter reads from the value at the analog pin A0 and assigns this value to an integer variable called analogValue. int analogValue = analogRead(analogPin); 1 int analogValue = analogRead(analogPin); To do this, we use the analogRead() function. Recall that analogRead() will return a value between 0 and 1023. This value will change as we adjust the potentiometer. This line of code is checking the position of the potentiometer every time through the loop(). The next thing we want to do is compare the value we just read from the analog pin to our threshold value. The if-else statement is perfect for this. if (analogValue > threshold) { digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); } else { digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); } 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 if (analogValue > threshold) { digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); } else { digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); } You have seen the if statement before, now we add an else statement. The if statement checks a condition in the parenthesis, if it is TRUE, then the code in the curly brackets is executed – if the condition is not met (FALSE), then it moves to the else statement. Consider this pseudocode: if(apple is NOT rotten) { } else { } 1 2 3 4 5 if(apple is NOT rotten) { } else { } You can see that the else statement gives you control over what to do when the condition in the if statement is not met. In a later lesson we will talk about the else-if statement which will offer even further control over conditions. Explanation of iF-Then Statements In this example the condition we are interested in is: In this example the condition we are interested in is thus… analogValue > threshold 1 analogValue > threshold If this is TRUE we turn the LED on by using the digitalWrite() function: if (analogValue > threshold) { digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); } 1 2 3 4 5 if (analogValue > threshold) { digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); } If this condition is FALSE we turn off the LED by executing the code inside the curly brackets of the else statement: else { digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); } 1 2 3 4 5 else { digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); } Before we continue discussing the sketch, let’s do a quick overview of Comparison Operators. The condition set in an if-else statement will use what are called comparison operators. The list of comparison operators on the Arduino Reference page is as follows: == (equal to) != (not equal to) < (less than) > (greater than) = (greater than or equal to) These operators offer a broad spectrum of comparisons to use. It’s vital to pay close attention to the syntax of the comparison operators. Accidentally dropping an equal sign, or typing a > instead of a < is easy to do, and usually leaves you scratching your head when the program acts differently than you might have expected. Now that we have turned the LED on or off depending on the position of the potentiometer, let’s see exactly what values are being read. We want to do this to ensure the program is doing what we think it should and also to make sure our potentiometer (sensor) is working properly. // print the analog value: Serial.println(analogValue); 1 2 3 // print the analog value: Serial.println(analogValue); This line of code uses the println() function from the Serial library – which (as you know by now) sends the values from the Arduino to your computer. Adjust your potentiometer and watch the values change in the Serial Monitor window. Then adjust the potentiometer so the value is right at the 400 threshold and make sure the LED is responding appropriately. Finally, we want to slow down the readings to add some stability. We do this with the delay() function. delay(1); // delay in between reads for stability 1 delay(1); // delay in between reads for stability Let’s recap. First we read the value at the analog pin and assign that value to a variable. Next we check if that variable is more than or less than our threshold value. If it is above the threshold the LED turns on, if it is below the threshold the LED turns off. We also want to see the actual values at the analog pin, so we print them to the serial monitor. Finally, we wait a millisecond before our next reading – which starts the loop() at the top. You can see how handy the if-else statement can be. As I have said previously, the if-else statement is a staple of programming – you will see it (or a similar form of it), in any programming language you encounter henceforth. Try On Your Own Challenges Adjust the value of the threshold variable. Write an additional if statement to turn on the LED when the analogValue variable is less than 100. The LED should turn on when analogValue is greater than 400 and less than 100.

The first program you usually write when learning a new programming language is called, “Hello World”. Its only function is to display the words “Hello World” on the computer monitor. When learning to program microcontrollers such as the Arduino, the equivalent of “Hello World” is a program that blinks an LED. Guess what it is called – Blink. You Will Need An LED (any color works fine) A 220 Ohm Resistor An alligator clip (not essential but makes the circuit easier) Fourteen small and smooth rocks from the a western pacific island (not essential but adds an esoteric feel) NOTE: On most Arduino boards there is an LED soldered right by pin 13 – it is actually connected to pin 13 – so if you do not have an LED laying around (or a resistor for that matter), you can use the board mounted LED – it will blink with the same sketch. Step-by-Step Instructions Insert the short leg of the LED into the GND pin on your Arduino (use the GND pin closest to pin 13). Connect the 220 Ohm resistor to pin 13 on the Arduino. It doesn’t matter which way you connect the resistor. Use the alligator clip to connect the long leg of the LED to the other leg of the resistor. If you do not have an alligator clip, twist the two leads together as best you can to get a steady electrical connection. Plug the Arduino board into your computer with a USB cable. Open up the Arduino IDE. Open the sketch for this section. Click the Verify button on the top left. It should turn orange and then back to blue. Click the Upload button. It will also turn orange and then blue once the sketch has finished uploading to your Arduino board. Now monitor the Arduino board – the LED should be blinking. This image was made using Fritzing.

Notice the comments at the top of the program. Note the use of the multi-line comments syntax /* */. It is always a good idea to take time and see what the programmer has to say about the sketch they wrote. The comments will likely be concise, describing how the program works or what it should accomplish. A few may even tell you how to connect the circuit. The next block of code you encounter in the Blink sketch is…   1 2 3 4 void setup( ) { // initialize the digital pin as an output. pinMode(led, OUTPUT); } Recall that the setup() function is in almost every Arduino sketch you encounter. Inside the curly braces is code that will only be run once by the Arduino. For this sketch notice the function pinMode() is inside the curly braces of the setup() function. Let me start by saying that pinMode() is a wonderful function. If you recall, functions can take arguments. The pinMode() function takes two arguments – it wants a pin number and a mode for that pin. The pin number is easy, 0 to 13 for digital pins, and A0 to A5 for analog pins. The mode is an easy designation as well, you want the pin to be either an INPUT (good for reading a sensor) or an OUTPUT (good for powering an LED). When a pin is set as an INPUT, it prepares the pin to read voltages that will be applied at the pin. When a pin is set as an OUTPUT, it prepares the pin to output voltage – more on this later. In this example, we want to light an LED, this requires that voltage is applied at pin 13. Therefore, we need the mode of pin 13 set as an OUTPUT. Keep in mind that setting the mode of the pin to OUTPUT does not apply a voltage, it enables the pin to supply a voltage once it is programmed to do so. Moving on to the final block of code, we come to our favorite and ubiquitous function void loop()…   1 2 3 4 5 6 void loop( ) {   digitalWrite(led,HIGH);// turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)   delay(1000); // wait for a second   digitalWrite(led,LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW   delay(1000); // wait for a second } You may recall that void loop() runs over and over again. In this loop, we see two functions: digitalWrite() and delay(). The function digitalWrite() is used to apply either HIGH or LOW voltage to a pin. HIGH will apply 5 volts to the pin you designate and LOW will apply 0 volts. If you apply 5 volts to a pin that is connected through an LED to ground, then the LED will light up. There is a voltage difference between the pin and ground, thus current is able to flow through the LED. If you apply 0 volts to the same pin the LED will not light up because no current is being “pushed” through the circuit – the voltage at ground and at the pin are both zero.   1 2 digitalWrite() takes two arguments, the pin number and the level of voltage, either HIGH or LOW, as we have discussed above. digitalWrite(led, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level) We want to start the loop by applying HIGH voltage to pin 13, where our LED is attached. In the digitalWrite() function we use the variable name ‘led’ to refer back to the value 13 – which was previously assigned. Notice that there is no need to explicitly write 13 in the digitalWrite() function, instead we are able to use the variable ‘led’. Variables are awesome like that – they can take the place of numbers and are much easier to change and track. Every time we use the ‘led’ variable, the Arduino will see 13. If we later decide to move our LED to pin 10, then all we have to do is change the value of ‘led’ once, and all the instances of ‘led’ are changed too. Once digitalWrite() function has been executed, the LED will get bright – we just applied 5 volts, so hey, that makes sense. The next thing we do is delay the Arduino sketch to enjoy the bright glow of our LED. To do this, we use the delay() function. The delay() function takes one argument – the number of milliseconds you want the program to delay. In this case, we want 1000 milliseconds, which equals one second. First we said, “apply high voltage” and now we say – wait one second. Our LED will glow for exactly one second. But that gets old, and we have to stay true to the name of the sketch, so next we tell the Arduino to write a LOW voltage to pin 13 – to do this we use the same function as before, namely digitalWrite(), but, this time, we want LOW voltage instead of HIGH. Now the LED goes dark because no current is flowing. In order to sustain that darkness we use the delay() function again for one second. Now the LED is dark for one second. We are at the end of the loop. We turned the LED on for a second, then we turned it off for a second – what next? Once the Arduino completes the loop, it starts at the top of the loop again and repeats like a broken record. Once again, the LED will light up, delay a second and then go dark for one second. And repeat – now you have a blinking LED – pretty cool for just a couple lines of code!   Try on Your Own Challenge Change the value of the delay functions. What happens? Change the number of the led variable to 12 and move the long leg of your LED to pin 12. See what happens. Further Reading int pinMode() digitalWrite() delay()

This week we're taking a look at a lesser known band called Rosetta Stone. They were active from the mid-eighties until around the year 2000 and were definitely influenced by the evolving industrial scene during the recording of their later albums. Early in the band's career they had a very gothic rock sound that produced some very catchy and unique tracks, but does their catalog of albums include a plethora of hidden gems or merely a collection of average songs? Listen and find out what we think of the albums An Eye For the Main Chance, Adrenaline, Chemical Emissions, Unerotica and the live release Under the Rose.Note: On this episode's news segment we discuss and wish David Bowie a Happy 69th Birthday. The day after recording the episode, David Bowie unfortunately passed away due to complications from cancer.Click here to listen
