I've been craving chocolate cake for the past week or so, but I've been either too busy or too sick to make it. I'm not gonna lie, I usually make my cakes/cupcakes from boxed mixes because I think they always turn out ten times better than when I make it from scratch. Boxed mixes are always perfectly moist and come out beautifully every time… You just can't mess them up– They're so easy! PLUS, you don't have to worry about washing so many dishes!
Last night, I was so close to making my own chocolate cake from scratch, but I didn't have all the ingredients to make the frosting. We all know you can't make a chocolate cake without the chocolate frosting.. so off to the grocery store it was. Now, by the time I actually got dressed and into the car, I was just not feeling up to par and wasn't in the healthiest mood to be baking a cake. That's when my boyfriend (bless his heart) told me that he would make me red velvet cupcakes and even frost them for me! Granted they were both going to be cupcakes made from a boxed mix and frosting from a can, I was ecstatic that he would do all that for me. For those of you that are unaware, my boyfriend is not exactly the best person in the kitchen. Let's just say that he tried to heat up "microwave chicken" once and forgot to puncture holes AND cover the plate with a paper towel, despite the clear directions on the side of the box.
Anyways, I'm walking through the baking aisle and thought to myself.. it's already nearly midnight; I didn't want my boyfriend to make a mess in the kitchen and go through all the trouble for me just so I can get a piece of chocolate cake. I opted for the Betty Crocker Warm Delights in Molten Caramel Cake with some cookie dough ice cream on top, instead. It only takes a minute and 15 seconds to make and it's the perfect amount to satisfy my craving.. or so I thought. I woke up the next morning feeling ten times better with the same urge to bake a chocolate cake. Thank goodness I did! These cupcakes were magnificent!
This recipe is from Jennifer of Seattle's Trophy Cupcakes. If you've never had a cupcake from there, then you haven't lived. Seriously. I went to Seattle for my cousin's wedding last summer, and their wedding cake was made up of Trophy's Cupcakes. They are BY FAR the BEST cupcakes I've never had. Better than those Sprinkles & Crumbs cupcakes found here in LA. The red velvet was to die for, and I ate at least six different kinds of cupcakes from there when I went. Each one was just as delectable as the next. I'm still dying to try the Chai one (Chai tea lattes are my all time favorite drink and I love Chai EVERYTHING), but they didn't have it on the days that I went.
I had a bunch of my family over tonight to celebrate Chinese New Year a bit early, and by the end of the night, there were only 6 cupcakes left from the original 24 that I baked plus a mini cake. Everyone loved them– Even my dad, who doesn't normally like super sweet desserts. I'd use this recipe over and over again! Now if only Jennifer from Trophy's can release their red velvet recipe….
- 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (not Dutch-processed)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (from about 20 squares)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
- Marshmallow Frosting (See recipe below)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 standard muffin tins with cupcake liners; set aside.
- Sift 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together into the bowl of an electric mixer. Using the paddle attachment, mix ingredients together on low speed.
- In a large bowl, mix together eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla. Add to flour mixture and beat on medium speed for 30 seconds. Scrape down sides of bowl and continue mixing on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add boiling water and stir to combine; set cake batter aside.
- Place graham cracker crumbs, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter in a large bowl; stir until well combined.
- Place 1 tablespoon graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each prepared muffin cup. Use the bottom of a small glass to pack crumbs into the bottom of each cupcake liner. Reserve remaining graham cracker mixture for topping.
- Place 2 teaspoons chocolate in each muffin cup. Transfer muffin tins to oven and bake until the edges of the graham cracker mixture is golden, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven and fill each muffin cup three-quarters full with cake batter. Sprinkle each with remaining chocolate and graham cracker mixture. Return to oven and bake, rotating pans halfway through baking, until tops are firm and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer muffin tins to a wire rack and let cupcakes cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and let cool completely.
- Transfer frosting to a large pastry bag fitted with a large plain round or French tip (such as Ateco #867 or Ateco #809). Pipe frosting in a spiral motion on each cupcake. Transfer cupcakes to a baking sheet. Using a kitchen torch, lightly brown the frosting, taking care not to burn the cupcake liners. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container, up to 2 days.
Marshmallow Frosting
- 8 large egg whites
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- Place egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar in the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer. Set over a saucepan with simmering water. Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and whites are warm to the touch, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Transfer bowl to electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat, starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form, 5 to 7 minutes. Add vanilla, and mix until combined. Use immediately.
My Notes: I followed the recipe to the T and it turned out beautifully. The batter might seem a bit thin, but that's how it's supposed to be! It turned out for a super moist cupcake. I didn't have that many graham crackers, so I wasn't able to sprinkle the top with it. I'm sure it didn't make much of a difference, but I'll make sure to have more on hand the next time I make these. I also had a TON of batter leftover and was able to bake a mini cake, so you can line some more muffin tins and make more cupcakes instead (there was enough to probably make at least 6 more cupcakes). The frosting was just AMAZING. Seriously. AMAZING.

Just about two weeks back, the article " The Decline of Gentoo Linux" created an rippling avalance of Gentoo scantiness that caromed into an an awkwardly tied Cnet article of Gentoo vs. Ubuntu.
Distrowatch Weekly recalled attention to the original article several days later and amplified the lightly trolling post. The past two weeks Gentoo has taken a beating.
First Thomas Capricelli (a Gentoo user) voiced his disappointment that KDE-4.1 is not in the tree yet.
This has become a big issue because 4.1 essentially marks KDE out of beta and because it has been more than a month of KDE-4.1's official release. Marcus Hanwell (part of Gentoo's KDE team) noted three weeks ago that the KDE-4.1 delay is partly do to Portage's new EAPI 2 standard and how KDE-4.1 can be multi-slotted. Jan Kundrát, another Gentoo KDE team member, points out the new spec as well as that several of Gentoo's KDE team left recently.
The gong really sounded on an article last week not because of it's content but rather it's title. This article generated alot of unwanted buzz and stopped a few hearts (including yours truely). "Gentoo Linux Cancels Distribution" the article was largely optimistic though, and was probably just written by someone new to Linux definitions.
Justin Dugger also pondered "Is Gentoo Dying? and Loren Bandiera asks "What happened to Gentoo?"
The " The Decline of Gentoo Linux" loosely posited Gentoo's decline by three criteria: long delay of installation media releases, KDE-4.1 not being in the portage tree yet, and the project's fewer developers. Criteria hardly indicating his assertion that Gentoo is barely holding it together.
I've used Gentoo for one and a half years now and I have no evidence that Gentoo is declining. Gentoo's package system almost always has the newest version of a package I need in the portage tree. Gentoo recently has changed it's voting method so it is more likely the most experienced, most active developers make the decisions as part of the Council that best influence Gentoo. I also still see a good volume of postings in Gentoo's forums, and the Gentoo-wiki.
Gentoo is in a change of flux more than usual (I believe) because of the new leadership structure. And I think you can argue here that there is a warning signal going off on Gentoo's decentralization. Many people choose to create their own projects. But is this decentralization going to cause an unraveling of Gentoo? I don't think so.
Gentoo is a hobbyist's distrobution so fluxes are expected, to predict it's demise by those three criteria is a loose exposition at best. The Gentoo Council seems to be more homegenous than I have known it for the last year and a half. So I look to a greater Gentoo later. Gentoo is a great distrobution and I plan to use it for a long time.

"I AM is a sure-fire conversation starter. An emotional thought fest that inspires hope for an evolutionary shift. I Am and its director are a welcomed newcomer to the documentary scene. The film offers a hopeful antidote to disconnection and despair. It is a wake-up call to the forces of good within each of us to write a new story for the world."
-Dan Siegel, The Huffington Post
"A positive, expansive experience."
-John Hartl, The Seattle Times
"Upbeat and enjoyable."
-Jeffrey M. Anderson, San Francisco Examiner
"A passionate film. It's what Shadyac was saying all along in his comedies, but this time he's saying it with feeling."
-Tad Friend, The New Yorker
"The film is crammed with intriguing ideas but Shadyac earns is keep as a filmmaker. He illustrates the serious talk with provocative images emphasizing our sense of connectedness."
-Patrick Goldstein, The Los Angeles Times
"The transformational movement has a great friend in Tom Shadyac. He delivers esoteric knowledge to a popular audience, expressing the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern consciousness in a way both entertaining and enlightening. I AM is a spark of light and a work of love."
-Marianne Williamson
"Terrific. A highly principled film that tackles esoteric content in a grounded and (of course) humorous way. We sincerely encourage our readers to check out I AM."
-Rob Sidon, Common Ground
"A positive and hopeful vision of the real essence of human nature. Has the depth and integrity you would expect of a seeker of truth. Shadyac inspires us by how he has changed his own life, and is happier for it. I can't think of a more positive film to serve as an antidote to the fears generated by the economy, war, politics and the approach of 2012. There is hope, and we are it."

As new energy efficiency programs proliferate, regulators increasingly will seek to use the associated demand reductions to reduce capital expenditures on new transmission and distribution assets...
Anatomy of Sealed-Bid Auctions
Bringing flexibility and efficiency to energy RFPs.
utility to a same-term purchase of power supply from the utility (with Maine PUC oversight). In Maine, utilities have historical entitlements to power supplies ( i.e., non-utility generators). These supplies are sold at the same time wholesale suppliers are solicited. The prices for both purchases and sales can be linked by the bidder. However, this approach is not the same as allowing a bidder to condition acceptance of one tranche of its supply offer on the utility's purchase of other tranches.
12. United Illuminating's offering structure also allows for linking of different term offers; however, each unique product term is defined as a separate tranche.
13. Utilities in Connecticut, Washington, D.C., and Maryland convert these prices on the bid sheet so that bidders can see the price per tranche they are offering when the bid sheet is completed. In contrast, utilities in Massachusetts do not provide the weighting calculation that is used by bidders.
14. There can be situations in these auctions where offers are rejected by the utility commission if the prices are above a level considered reasonable.
15. For example, there could be a particular aspect of the credit requirements or default provisions of the proposed contract that a supplier may indicate are unnecessarily costly.
16. Combinatorial Auctions, 2006, edited by Peter Cramton, Yoav Shoham, and Richard Steinberg, at 616.
17. A similar comparison can be made to United Illuminating's auction structure instead of PPL Electric's format.
18. Such cost structures can arise from economies of scale and scope in production and distribution technologies, as well as the supplier's approach to managing wholesale supply and delivery.
19. Given the bid format, the price of the subsequent tranches cannot decline, but either remain the same or increase.
20. See, e.g. , Baumol, William J., and Alan S. Blinder, Economics: Principles and Policy , 1988, at 605-606.

It has not been public investments in sustainable fuels and modern tools that have led to the re-awakening of the U.S. economy. Rather, it's been mostly private investment in shale gas development...
The Art of the Plausible
Prospects for clean energy legislation in 2011.
while President Obama's proposal for adding 33 percent of new clean energy by 2035 might be accepted, it's unlikely his metric of "total" clean energy will.
In addition to absolute percentage requirements, ramp rates (how fast the percentages go up) for new clean energy will be a hotly debated issue. Slower initial ramp rates would tend to provide better ratepayer mitigation, while faster initial ramp rates would tend to promote technologies that can be developed quickly, and have little technology risk associated with them— e.g., gas or some renewables. In turn, larger medium-term ramp rates might tend to promote cost-intensive clean energy sources such as nuclear and coal. For context, the Graham CES bill started at 13 percent for the first two years, increased nominally by another 2 percent for the next five years, then jumped an additional 5 percent starting in 2020, and generally increased 5 percent every five years after that.
In addition, banking and borrowing provisions can have an effect on the ultimate generation mix that's constructed. Banking provisions allow sources to over-comply in certain years and "bank" the extra credits for use in later years. An unrestricted banking mechanism, such as in the Graham bill, would tend to promote lower-cost solutions, but might also generate an early overbuild and banking of credits from well-known clean energy sources such as gas or renewables in order to delay the need to invest in more cost-intensive technologies such as nuclear or CCS. In turn, structured borrowing mechanisms could allow developers to take credit early for long lead-time clean energy technologies, such as nuclear or CCS, or technologies such as smart grids, which might produce greater savings further in the future. Under the Graham legislation, for example, if a company had a project under construction, it could petition to pull forward an amount of credits expected from the facility when it's complete for current compliance use. Graham's borrowing mechanism was, however, limited to a three-year window. A longer window might better promote long lead-time technologies such as nuclear or CCS— e.g., a ratable portion of the credits expected from a nuclear power plant to be completed in 10 years may be used for compliance in each of the 10 years prior to completion of the plant.
• Qualifying Sources: The primary CES debate will center on what resources qualify for compliance. Under the Lugar bill, qualifying clean energy sources included a broad array of renewable energy and energy efficiency; coal with 80 percent GHG sequestration, storage or reuse; and new nuclear. 11 Clean energy sources under the Graham bill included renewable energy; coal with 65 percent GHG sequestration; biomass; energy efficiency; and new nuclear generation. 12 Both bills tended to allow power generation from methane (coal-seam methane, landfill gas and biogas from such sources as sewage sludge) to qualify. Obama's proposal would add natural gas to this mix.
In addition to these perhaps-more-traditional clean energy sources, Graham would allow some credit for retirement of coal facilities, while Lugar would allow credit for power plant efficiency improvements. Notably, the Lugar provisions on power
