markets, and high native peak load. Certainly the rate's intended use will significantly affect the utility's usage of the interruptible rate, therefore impacting its value to the utility.
A second factor is the utility's capacity position. Is the utility long or short in capacity? A utility's capacity position changes from year to year. In one year it may be short capacity, then, if a plant comes on line, it could be long the following year. The impact of the utility's capacity position will vary depending on the interruptible rate's objective. For example, if the objective of the rate is only to be used for system reliability issues and the utility is long on capacity, than the interruptible rate has reduced value. However, if the interruptible rate can be utilized to take advantage of favorable market conditions and is priced appropriately, it still has financial value.
A third factor in an interruptible rate's value is the restrictions placed on the utility in calling interruptions. The key parameters that influence restrictions are as follows:
- Frequency of interruptions
- Duration of interruptions
- Total number of interruptions
- Notice period before an interruption
- Assurances of interruption
The value of curtailable and interruptible programs to the utility is the result of a reduced cost to serve load (or revenues from selling the capacity). If a utility can substitute nonfirm load for firm load, the value of the nonfirm load is the marginal cost of the foregone resource additions. As noted above, not all degrees of nonfirm service provide equal value. A kilowatt of curtailable or interruptible load must therefore be evaluated in the context of the restrictions placed on its availability and utilization.
The three factors (intended use, capacity position, and restrictions) combine to determine the value of the interruptible rate for the utility. The full potential of an interruptible rate will be realized when the three factors are optimized to work together (see Figure 1). If the factors are not complementary, the value will be reduced. For example, an interruptible rate that allows unlimited curtailments (restrictions) but only for system reliability reasons (intended use) will have minimum value to a utility. On the other hand, an interruptible rate that allows 400 hours of interruptions (restrictions) for economic reasons (intended use) at a time when the utility is short in capacity (capacity position) will have significant value to the utility.
Each of the three factors mentioned above should be considered when valuing the capacity and energy value of an interruptible rate. Since an interruptible rate is a demand-side option and customer demand typically is met on the supply-side (i.e., generating plants), an equivalency needs to be established between the supply and demand sides. To establish the equivalency, resources with similar characteristics are compared. For example, an interruptible rate is a demand-side option for reducing peak demand throughout the year. A comparable supply-side option is a peaking plant. If all operating characteristics (see factors above) are equal, the two options should have an equivalent value to the utility.
A peaking, supply-side option is valued on the capacity (fixed) and energy

The Cookstr Weekly: Roasting Season
As I begin gearing up for the holiday season, I'm thinking about one of the easiest cooking methods for proteins and cold-weather produce. Roasting is a hands-off method that melds spices and seasonings with whole ingredients, giving food an impressive depth of flavor and also making your home smell divine.
And if you're planning menus for Thanksgiving and winter holidays down the road, why not take the first half of the month to test out some new recipes for roasted side dishes? Roasted vegetables can make a delightful anchor for a winter salad. And you can also look to roasting when thinking about what to serve for dessert.
by Moosewood Collective
"Roasted vegetables, cucumbers, rosemary. and olive oil are typical ingredients in Armenian cuisine, but then many countries of the Near East and Mediterranean may lay claim to succulent, big flavored salads like this. It's a beautiful dish, glossy and colorful, and the soft roasted vegetables and crunchy celery make for an interesting texture. It's typical of dishes created by our partner and talented cook Laura Branca, who brings her Armenian heritage to our literal and figurative "table." Picture a small, beautiful woman mixing an enormous bowl of some pilaf or other and coming up with a lovely, perfectly seasoned dish every time."
- The Moosewood Collective
The Cookstr Weekly: Finding Your Inner (Julia) Child
Can you believe we're halfway through October already? As the days get shorter, the amount we hope to pack into them can start to feel overwhelming, and the big food holidays are starting to loom. Add to that a goal of getting dinner on the table every night, and you can be setting yourself up for disappointment. I've been following with a lot of interest the recent debate over cooking at home – whether it's a feasible job or even a worthy one, or just another way to make us (mostly, make moms) feel like we're falling short.
At Cookstr, of course, we believe in the power of cooking to nurture us creatively and emotionally as well as calorically. We believe there is great value in learning to cook and in learning to cook well, from the experts, from the chefs and cookbooks that paved the way and from those up-and-comers who continue to explore and innovate. In many ways, our approach to cooking is informed quite directly by that queen of the kitchen, Julia Child. Her simple recipes, classic techniques and uproarious sense of humor always delight us.
by Julia Child
This recipe remains one of the most popular on Cookstr, which used to mystify me a little. Aren't mashed potatoes pretty straightforward? But the longer I spend with the Cookstr recipes and community, the more I get it. We make mashed potatoes on big, important holidays, for celebration, for comfort, for a treat, to make someone's day a little bit better. You don't want just any mashed potatoes – you want the mashed potatoes. That's what we aim for in the recipes we feature on Cookstr. To deliver just the right recipe, by a chef or cookbook author we trust, right when you need it.
The Cookstr Weekly: Ten Jamie Oliver Recipes
Jamie Oliver is one of our longtime favorite chefs at Cookstr, and we're so impressed with how he's inspired and empowered people across the globe of so many different ages, backgrounds, and levels of culinary ability to spend more enjoyable time in the kitchen.
Here are ten of our favorite Jamie Oliver recipes for simple, hearty food that's a joy to cook and to eat together.
by Jamie Oliver
A lesson in how a simple smattering of ingredients can create kitchen alchemy, this recipe is perfect for a late-night craving, a quick lunch in the middle of a busy day, or a last-minute dinner when you need to go grocery shopping. An emulsion of lemon, olive oil, and Parmesan forms a creamy sauce to coat the linguine, and the basil and arugula wilt gently when they hit the hot pasta. It's not difficult, but it is delicious, as the best recipes should be.
The Cookstr Weekly: A Garlic Lover's Menu
When I'm asked my favorite food, it's a tough call. Osso buco? Mashed potatoes? Spaghetti and meatballs? But if asked my favorite ingredient, I don't think I'd have to hesitate too long before settling on garlic. Across cuisines and seasons, fresh garlic provides a nutty, sweet, bitter, umami punch that can brighten a salad or give a kick in the gremolata, or melt in a slow-cooked, braised, or roasted dish into something deeply comforting and satisfying.
When I think about it, probably all my favorite foods include or pair well with garlic, from Caesar salads to mushroom soup. Braised meats, stews, soups, and other fall foods are ideal fits for the rich flavor that garlic offers.
by Kimberly Mathai
I can't get enough of coconut milk as an ingredient. When cooking for dairy-free friends and family, I'm entirely reliant on its richness and texture in both desserts and savory dishes. Coconut milk, with its rich sweetness, is a perfect counterbalance for garlic's intensity. In this surprisingly simple soup, both the garlic and fresh ginger are grated or pureed and then sautéed for a toasty flavor. Bok choy and bell pepper provide a tender crunch against the creamy backdrop of the coconut-enriched broth.
The Cookstr Weekly: New Year, Familiar Recipes
The Jewish New Year, and its coincidence with the start of a new school year and the beginning of the fall holidays, is an ideal opportunity to rediscover the joys of roasted meats and vegetables, baking bread at home, and the way that crisp apples melt into cake batter.
Whether you're celebrating the new year next week or simply looking for a roster of comforting, balanced weeknight meals for the cooler weeks ahead, this menu has plenty to offer. And if you'd like even more tips and tricks from great chefs and cookbook authors, check out the Clever Cookstr podcast every Wednesday.
|Chicken Marbella
by Sheila Lukins and Julee Rosso
"This was the first main-course dish to be offered at The Silver Palate shop, and the distinctive colors and flavors of the prunes, olives, and capers have kept it a favorite for years. It's good hot or at room temperature. When prepared with small drumsticks and wings, it makes a delicious appetizer.
The overnight marination is essential to the moistness of the finished product: The chicken keeps and even improves over several days of refrigeration…Since Chicken Marbella is such a spectacular party dish, we give quantities to serve 10 or 12, but the recipe can successfully be divided to make a smaller amount if you wish."
The Cookstr Weekly: Get Baking
As the first leaves start to fall and it's no longer unbearable to turn the oven on, I'm starting to think about fall baking. The coming months will bring plenty of birthday parties, family dinners, Rosh Hashanah, and Thanksgiving, which means cakes, cookies, and quickbreads.
By all means, let's dust off those tried and true favorites, but I'm also taking time to experiment with new ingredients and techniques to debut at holiday gatherings this season. But don't worry, friends – I promise I'll still make that pumpkin cake at least once.
|Cinnamon Crumb Surprise
by Rose Levy Berenbaum
"Topped with fragrant cinnamon crumbs, this golden loaf has a hidden treat in the middle: a tart layer of buttery apple slices, nestled inside a layer of cinnamon crumbs. This is a real favorite in our house, perfect with coffee or tea; I also enjoy it with a glass of cold milk."
- Rose Levy Berenbaum
The Cookstr Weekly: Ten Dinners Under Ten Dollars
If I'm going to splurge, it's likely not going to be on this-season designer jeans or a shiny new gadget. It'll probably be on a set of dry-aged rib eyes, or some really spectacular chocolate, or a must-have cheese. My splurges are usually edible, and I enjoy them for all they're worth. But most nights, I'm just trying to get a delicious, inventive, and inexpensive dinner on the table.
These recipes will help. At under ten dollars a plate, they're not just plain old spaghetti, but they certainly won't break the bank. So you can save up for those fall fashions…or, if you're like me, maybe some truffle oil.
|Swiss Chard, Rotini, and Cannellini Beans in Parmesan Broth
by Stephanie Stiavetti and Garrett McCord
"All too often, people toss away the rinds from their Parmesan, not realizing what flavorful bounty they are. Just like the greens from leeks or the bones of a chicken, these scraps have tons of flavor if you know how to coax it out. Stuff a chicken with Parmesan rinds before roasting; toast them under a broiler and use them as Parmesan "croutons"; or pop them into a pot and simmer them to make a hypnotic Parmesan broth. This aromatic brew is sure to lure anyone nearby into the kitchen. The flavor is salty, nutty, and unmistakably cheesy. Fortified with a bit of pasta, hearty Swiss chard, and cannellini beans, it results in a soup that is satisfying, inexpensive, and easy to make."
- Stephanie Stiavetti & Garrett McCord

Games to watch this weekend
It's pretty obvious what the game of the week is. Alabama vs. Texas A&M has enormous implications. Outside of Saturday's Alabama game and a midseason tilt at Ole Miss, the Aggies won't be tested again until a showdown at LSU on November 23. They don't face Florida, Georgia or South Carolina, which means a win against the Crimson Tide would vault them into the top three where they could sit all...Read more »
Alabama focused on showdown against Texas A&M
Alabama is fresh off a convincing win over Virginia Tech in its opener a few weeks back and got last Saturday off to rest up for the much-anticipated trip to College Station this week.
The time off was surely a good way for the top-ranked Crimson Tide to reflect on last season's game against Texas A&M. It's rematch time as Alabama plays No. 6 Texas A&M and reigning Heisman Trophy winner...Read more »

Each oscillator can be tuned separately, or synched to create intervals or interesting harmonics. Oscillator 2 can also be set to a consistent note or used as an LFO to modulate the filter. The internal low-pass filter with variable cutoff frequency is used to shape the sound and this can also be controlled with an external expression pedal or CV source.

Waldorf Zarenbourg First Impression
Waldorf Zarenbourg is a pretty, chunky, digital piano. It has a certain amount of internal sounds (physically modeled, sampled and fm synthesized). On this video, a quick run on the internal preset. Audio out goes straight into digital recorder.
Another quick run on the internal presets (Tine, Bars, Reeds, Clavi, CP Piano, FM Piano, Grand Piano…) contained into Waldorf Zarenbourg digital piano. Audio goes straight into digital recorder.
When Waldorf introduced the Zarenbourg in 2006, this piano was one of a very small minority. It had dawned on us that few contemporary instruments offered electric pianists and keyboardists that elusive quality called soul. Reduced to the essentials, this rare breed of instrument does one thing so well that it grows on the player, becoming an extension of body and mind. It has that magical touch of purism that all-in-one devices lack. So we aimed high, achieving a sound nothing short of sublime. And we conjured a look that blends the hallmarks of classic designs with a more contemporary clean and cool vibe.
Handling is intuitive, not inquisitive. No more fussing with cords for this and that; simply power up, play, and possess instantly satisfying sound for player and audience alike. Its aluminum hood offers a sturdy perch for your other favorite instrument, and its integrated speaker system can render the piggybacked device's signal. Let your laptop roost on this tower of power, and you can control plug-ins via USB and monitor the results via the Zarenbourg's audio input.
Two new electric pianos for Neo-Soul Keys for iPad
Gospel Musicians has released two new electric pianos for Neo-Soul Keys for iPad and updates to version 2.0.
Neo-Soul EX5
- Neo-Soul EX5 is an electric piano library that uses the EP synthesis technology from the Yamaha EX5 synthesizer. Gospel Musicians sampled their electric piano through the FDSP engine of the EX5 to simulate the physical modeled expression of an EP pickup. There is a new dedicated knob that will control more of the EP Pickup sound.
Neo-Soul Dyno
- Neo-Soul Dyno is an emulation of the popular "Dyno-My-Piano." Utilizing wavetable and sampling techniques Gospel Musicians designed it to achieve an extremely expressive and playable emulation of a Dyno electric piano sound.
There are other minor bug fixes and improvements as well as a new chorus algorithm that is intended to be warmer and richer than the previous version.
Price: Each electric piano is $9.99

Machine Machine – Granular synthesizer
Machine Machine (2013) is a 32″ touchscreen installation that functions as an electronic instrument. Granular synthesis is used to loop "grains" of sound and video at variable lengths and frequencies. These parameters are based on the y-axis of the touch point on the monitor. The x-axis determines the position of the grain within the timeline. The piece was exhibited last month at the Northrup King Building in Minneapolis during Art-a-Whirl and for Visual Storage; the MCAD MFA thesis exhibition.
Within the piece there are five different segments that can be manipulated. Each segment provides the sound and visuals of a particular machine doing its job. These include a magnetic scrap crane, a train engine, a hydraulic metal cutter, tanker cars, and foot traffic. The video demonstrates some of the range and subtlety possible with the device.

Microsoft Virtual Earth Enhances UK 3-D; EveryScape Seeks To Make 3-D Better, Cheaper
Microsoft announced that it's enhancing Virtual Earth in the UK with improved 3-D elevation data from Intermap Technologies. These improvements will make their way throughout Western Europe and to the U.S. The idea is to use better terrain and elevation data to provide a more photorealistic 3-D experience overall.
Meanwhile EveryScape says it has found a cheaper, more scalable way to build 3-D environments.
Everyscape, which we wrote about here, told me yesterday that the company has spent roughly five years developing a technology that makes it simple, relatively inexpensive and scalable to build 3-D models and cities from traditional photography.
"We don't require a specific type of camera or rig or anything like that. We can start with anybody's photography; the core technology is very different than traditional approaches," said Jim Schoonmaker, the CEO. Schoonmaker added that while there's complexity and heavy lifting going on "in the middle," both "ends" of the process are very simple.
Prior to the debut of EveryScape.com, the company had been building virtual tours for travel sites, such as TheBreakers.com. The idea that EveryScape can potentially leverage ordinary photography from people in the community is very interesting and might mean the company can quickly build out lots of cities. The company also wants to capture interiors of public buildings and stores, in addition to providing exteriors.
EveryScape identified three markets that comprise its initial focus: travel, real estate and local search.
The challenge with the Microsoft Virtual Earth 3-D experience right now is its speed. While spectacular, it's slow to load in most cases. EveryScape believes it has created a mass-market 3-D experience that promises to be fast and accessible to most users.

Editor's Notes: Leadership summit cancelled
|| Print |
|Robin Doussard
|Friday, November 13, 2009
The annual business summit that brings together hundreds of the state's business, political and civic leadership has been cancelled this year after seven consecutive summits. "We have decided to take a year off," said the Oregon Business Plan's steering committee in an announcement Nov. 13.
"In these difficult and uncertain economic times, we want to 1) continue to promote implementation of the work already proposed in the Business Plan and 2) take a fresh look at the plan and its initiatives to bring to the Leadership Summit in December 2010," the committee said.
That summit would come after the general election, where the state will elect a new governor. The state's business community has made no secret about how unhappy it is over Gov. Ted Kulongoski's signing into law this past Legislative session tax increases on businesses and the incomes of wealthy Oregonians. Businesses led the drive to bring the measures to a vote in a Jan. 26, 2010, special election.
Last year's summit tackled issues such as the corporate kicker. But any such collaborative discussion on tax or other issues this year seems unlikely until the tax measures are settled in January, and a new governor is elected next November.
In the next year, the group said it plans a series of regional meetings, work on initiative developments and hosting and co-hosting forums with candidates for Congress, governor and the Oregon legislature.
"We know that the Summits are popular events," the committee said. "They provide the opportunity to learn about the Plan and to connect with peers. But it is very hard at a large one-day event to deeply hear about what you think is most important for strengthening the state's economy. The plan presented at the first Summit in 2002 was the result of a year of industry focus groups, regional meetings and intense listening sessions. Going back to these roots, over the remainder of this year and next, we will focus on engaging with industry clusters, regional business and public leaders, policy experts, and candidates for office to prepare a newly refreshed plan ready for the December 2010 Summit."
Was cancelling the summit the right thing to do? I'd like to hear what you think.

That's Horn and Hardart's automat above, a noble restaurant that no longer exists now, but which is fondly remembered by everyone who took a meal there. What I remember best was their pumpkin pie. For kids its appearance in the Fall was a major event, eclipsed only by giant super holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving.
...the glorious ORANGE original, just like the innards of a real pumpkin! And I dare to hope that the finished pie will have that slightly rough H&H texture, which is a nice reminder of the stringy pumpkin interior which gave it birth.
If you make it, don't buy the pumpkin mash in a can...what you want are real baking pumpkins (small), and real evaporated milk, not condensed milk, which is different.
Here's the recipe:
The recipe doesn't tell us how H&H made the pie crust. I seem to remember it tasting a bit like shortbread. And I can't tell from the wording if the pumpkin mash is pre-cooked before the other ingredients are put in. I don't think it is, but it would be nice to be certain. Also, I'll hazard a guess that H&H used a little more butter and spices than is allowed here. After all, people loved butter in those days! And where's the teaspoon full of orange peel scrapings!? You better add some.

F.E.A.R. is the first notable attempt in a year at toppling the crown of valves epic Half-Life 2; a game that also seemed to have some similarities to busses where time keeping is concerned, although none at all when it comes to a rewarding experience. What we looked at then seemed extremely promising but have Monolith come up with a classic, and should we all be searching for a spare pair of pants? Read article

Posted by: Mike Sowerby on: 09/19/2005 07:00 AM [ 0 comment(s) ]
As many of you will be aware, F.E.A.R (or First Encounter Assault & Recon for short) involves a rather mysterious looking girl in a red dress, a man with an unappetising taste for human flesh, and some rather flashy action set pieces al la' The Matrix. All of this is brought together by one of the best game engines around. There has been a great amount of talk surrounding this game of late, and as we here at Guru 3d aim to please, it was decided we would take a quick pre-release look at both single player and multiplayer aspects of this game, with some preliminary testing and benchmark results, to give you an idea of just what to expect, and whether your brand spanking new 7800GTX will be just as scared of that Girl in the Red Dress as you!

The optical properties of Pr3+ activated LuCl3 and LuBr3 under intra-ionic 4f2rarr 4f1 5d1 and band gap (lambdaex = 193 nm; X-ray) excitations have been evaluated. The luminescence of Pr 3+ in these hosts is found to be strongly dependent on the excitation energy: for energies less than the absorption edge of the host, the luminescence is dominated by the 4f1 5d1 rarr 4f2 interconfigurational optical transitions. When luminescence is excited by photons with energies corresponding to the absorption edge or the band gap of the host, the emission spectrum is dominated by the intraconfigurational 4f2rarr 4f2 optical transitions, which emanate from the Pr3+ 3PJ states. A model to account for the dependence of the emission behavior of Pr3+ ion on the excitation energy is presented.

Guest contributor Tom Fox, of the Partnership for Public Service, writes weekly about issues in the federal workplace.

Question: Given the nature of the allegations and his past history, could Dominique Strauss-Kahn recover the credibility necessary to lead the IMF, or run for president of France, even if he were found innocent of last weekend's sexual assault charges?
The accusations against IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn are stunning, and whatever the outcome of his arrest in New York on sexual-assault charges, they are surely career ending.
With a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Paris, Strauss-Kahn had had an extraordinary calling, with earlier service on a university faculty, in the French National Assembly, and as the French minister of economy, finance and industry. Then, as chief of the IMF, he was at the top of his game, with a campaign for the French presidency a realistic next step.
The blue-chip credentials of a long and distinguished career, however, cannot somehow make up for Strauss-Kahn's alleged criminal behavior in a New York hotel on May 14. The report has so damaged his reputation that his service for the IMF is assuredly finished, as is any prospective service for his country.
Corporate executives who have fallen short of governing-board expectations have often recovered to lead another company. But executives who have fallen short on honorable behavior have not. Whatever their other leadership capacities, character shattered is career ending.
This piece is part of a discussion with our On Leadership panel of experts about the IMF's Dominique Strauss-Kahn, and whether his credibility is recoverable.

A Papillion church group learned Wednesday you don't have to leave the area to go on a mission.
The group from Trinity Lutheran came to midtown Omaha for an alley cleanup. The high school-aged students and adult sponsors are spending part of their summer vacation doing volunteer work locally and in other states. Cutting weeds in the overgrown alley at 33rd and Chicago was just one of several projects for the youth in the metro.
"No one wants to clean it up so you feel like you can do it and feel better about yourself that people can have this alleyway to walk through," said volunteer Cindy Mitchell.
"It's great we're out here helping out the community," said volunteer Kylie Lippincott. "It's not really like our own, but we're all one community as Omaha."
This was just one of several groups at work across the metro with 29 volunteers in all. They'll also be helping at a special ranch near Fort Calhoun that treats child victims of sex abuse.

Ice Age Unfrozen: Now Open!
NEW! Hunting Mastodons Workshop (Free with exhibit purchase)
Learn about the people who lived in Michigan around 12,000 years ago and how they may have interacted with mastodons. Every family will leave the workshop with a clay cast of a Clovis point (or tool that may have been used for hunting). Workshop times may vary.
Ice Age Unfrozen will give aspiring paleontologists a chance to "bone up" on prehistoric facts, paleontology, climatology and zoology. Beasts including the platybelodon, woolly mammoth, hyracotherium along with saber-toothed cat and Australopithecus families and more will roam the Science Center's Traveling Exhibits Hall. In addition, this experience offers an inside look at the physics and engineering of robotic animatronics from September 27, 2014 – January 3, 2015.
Pair it with Titans of the Ice Age in the Chrysler IMAX® Dome Theatre for a mammoth experience!
And, check out our new, Ice Age themed birthday parties!
Ice Age Unfrozen is presented in partnership with the Detroit Children's Museum and the University of Michigan Natural History Museum. Learn more about the Natural History museum with this scavenger hunt.
