I could have soup or stew for dinner every night from November to March and be perfectly content. Seriously. Especially when it's so cold outside- warming up with a hot bowl of stew is just perfect. Lucky for him I do add more variety to our meals, however that doesn't take away from the fact that I adore stew!
A few years ago I began hunting down a really good beef stew recipe. I tried so many and none were quite right. Finally! I found one... only it wasn't really for Beef Stew, it was for Beef Bourgignon which is a more complicated, richer version of a classic stew.
At any rate- I altered the recipe and the result is an easy, delicious beef stew that's made in the crockpot. I listed two methods for preparing this stew- to really get a nice, full flavor, I like to take about 15 minutes and do some pre-cooking on the stove. It's not necessary, but I encourage you to try both ways and see which one you like more.
The BEST Crockpot Beef Stew
Serves 8-10
- 4 TBSP olive oil
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 2 lbs trimmed beef chuck, cut into 1-2-inch cubes, patted dry with paper towels
- about 1/4 cup of flour {tossed with meat to coat}
- 10-15 small red potatoes {mine were pretty small, I used 14, cut into 1/8ths since I was serving it to small children}
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cups sliced carrots {about 3 good sized carrots}
- 2 cups sliced celery {about 2-3 stalks}
- 1 cup of red cooking wine**
- 1 cup beef stock or canned beef broth
- 1 can diced tomatoes, drained {14.5 oz}
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 tsp allspice
- 8-oz container of sliced mushrooms {optional}
- meat tenderizer and about 2 tsp cornstarch
|Searing beef prior to putting it in the crockpot.
|Deglazing pan. Fancy word, but it's super easy, trust me!
|Everything is in the crockpot, ready to cook!
|It's DONE! Mmmm... smells divine!

I've got a question, what is meat tenderizer, where is it found, and is it necessary? Thanks!ReplyDeleteReplies
Meat tenderizer can be found in the spice section of most food stores- I'm from the South and they have it at Kroger and Walmart here!- its a combination of things and it is white in color. I use it on meats that I'm going to be slow roasting and let it sit on there for about 30mins with the other spices I'm wanting to use- hope that helps!!Delete
Here are some great tips for meat tenderizers you would have in your home everyday, from tea and coffee to beer and buttermilk. And it explains how they work. I have to say yogurt is one of my favorites. Enjoy!Delete
Meat tenderizers usually have MSG which many people have an allergic reaction to, causing headaches and migraines. Instead use salt and pepper mixed with the flour before you sear the meat. If you need to tenderize the meat, use a wooden mallet made for that purpose.Delete
Actually, meat tenderizer is generally comprised of an enzyme called 'Bromelain', and is naturally derived from pineapple. It breaks down many of the disulfide bonds in the meat protein, making it significantly more tender.Delete
Additionally, modern research on MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) has shown that it's completely safe to consume. MSG is also naturally produced (from seaweed), and is a derivative of the amino acid Glutamate. All double-blind studies of which I am aware have found that people who complain of adverse reactions to MSG such as headaches or nasuea are unable to correctly differentiate between food containing the compound and food that does not. Further, many foods that are often blamed for causing these symptoms are often very high in sugar and salt, which can dehydrate you and lead to the alleged symptoms of an "MSG reaction".
In other news, I just followed the recipe for your stew, substituting garlic for some minced wild ramps, and it smells absolutely delicious! T-minus 1 hour until feasting time!!
Consumers should know that the glutamate industry funded the majority of studies "proving" the safety of MSG. Independent scientists have not always agreed with those findings.Delete
Looks really yummy! I'm going to try this one.ReplyDelete
Alexis- GREAT question! Meat tenderizer is found in the spices/ seasoning section at any grocery store. It comes seasoned and unseasoned- I like the seasoned variety. It has quite a bit of salt, so you'll find I don't add any additional to this recipe. It's super cheap- I got mine at Walmart for less than $1.ReplyDelete
One of my biggest pet peeves with stew is tough meat. I think stew meat should be super tender! Even if you use a cheap cut, slow cooking it all day should help with tenderness, but adding meat tenderizer the night before really helps out too.
So is it necessary.... no, I guess not. But I'd never make it without it! I probably shake the equivalent of 2-3 teaspoons over the meat the night before and let it sit.
Well you learn something new every day! I'll have to look for it, thanks!ReplyDelete
Why the asterisks with the red wine? Is it optional? A certain brand?ReplyDelete
All8- ha! Thank you for your comment- I make the asterik, then forgot to add the note! I went back and added it- here it is:ReplyDelete
**If you don't have or don't like cooking with wine, you can use grape juice, apple juice or simply increase the beef broth to 2 cups instead. I use red cooking wine though- I think it adds a wonderful flavor!
Sounds delicious! Can't wait to try it!ReplyDelete
This looks wonderful! I just made beef stew in my crock pot last night and it was cozy and good! I like your recipe a lot!ReplyDelete
Found you through Pinterest - this recipe looks fantastic!!! I'm planning on making it very soon! I was hoping to get some input from you on something though...my boyfriend is very opposed to the texture of tomatoes; do you think there is anyway I could take out the can of drained diced tomatoes or replace them with something else and still maintain the deliciousness of the stew? Let me know what you think.ReplyDeleteReplies
I see that your question is not answered as of today so I thought I would post my opinion on this. I have never added tomatoes to my beef stew, but I do use them when I make a veggie-beef soup or stew.
I don't think you really need to, but if you want to substitute, I suggest you use a few (3-4) tablespoons of tomato paste. I have seen tons of stew recipes that use paste and sometimes I use it, sometimes not. It does seem to add some depth to the stew.
If you open a can of tomato paste and don't want to waste the remainder, scoop it out into tablespoon size balls and freeze it on a sheet of wax paper. Then once it is frozen you can throw it in a ziploc to keep in the freezer for future use. When you need it again, it is there already measured, just take out what you need.
Thank you! I have a freezer full of meat I need to use and am hunting for recipes. I"m in the process of swapping my uncooked foods in one freezer (that needs to defrost) with cooked meals in the other. I look forward to trying this recipe ... sans bay as my mother hates bay :(ReplyDelete
Wow it's looking delicious, but I like your time consuming fact, Today I'll try to cook for my wife. stew recipesReplyDelete
Pinning this! Looks so good!ReplyDelete
This is hands down THE best beef stew my girlfriend and I have ever had. Thank you for posting!ReplyDelete
I have a question about the flour. Is it tossed with the meat tenderizer and beef the night before, or added to the stew the next day?ReplyDeleteReplies
Chris- it really doesn't matter, I've done it both ways. I usually toss the flour in with it right before I cook it in the skillet though- so before I add it to the stew the next day.Delete
WOW! This is really an amazing and attractive post about well described recipe of beef stew. I appreciate your posted wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing such an interesting post. Cowboy HatsReplyDelete
I made this today and it was awesome!ReplyDelete
I made this morning for the first time and was rushing as I had to leave for work. I tenderized the night before, did the extra deglazing step, however I forgot to coat the meat with flour. If I do the extra two cornstarch steps at end, can I salvage the meal? How important was that for the gravy? My family likes a thicker gravy, so any suggestions to fix this would be great.ReplyDeleteReplies
D- if you do the cornstarch steps at the end you should be just fine!! ;) ENJOY! We're actually having it for dinner tonight as well!Delete
This recipe does not even come close to fitting in my oval crockpot! I did the measurements exactly, used 10 small red potatoes, etc. Had to pull out a bunch of ingredients and still could barely get the top on. Maybe you should indicate what size your crockpot is? From the photo, it looks HUGE, and I wish I had paid attention to that. Still looking forward to a delicious dinner though.ReplyDeleteReplies
Just put in half of the recipe and save the rest for the next day.Delete
If I don't tenderize the night before and if I don't brown in the skillet, do I still toss the meat in flour before adding to the crockpot?ReplyDeleteReplies
I would say no, don't add it. The flour is to help brown the meat when you put it in skillet, and to thicken the gravy at the end, but you can do that with corn starch.Delete
Thanks very much for this recipe, everything turned out wonderful for me. I especially appreciate the night-before tips, as I'm not pro in the kitchen.ReplyDelete
I did the extra time method, and I think it's definitely worth it. I didn't have "cooking wine" but I did have nice bottle of Garnacha. It's definitely noticeable and adds a nice touch; however, I can't help but wonder how it would have turned out using a less dry/"potent" wine or a normal red cooking wine.
Thanks again!
My husband made this for dinner tonight and I thickened the sauce when I got home. Everyone loved it!ReplyDelete
I want to try this recipe but switch the beef for venison... Would I need to change anything if I made that switch?ReplyDelete
as venison is so lean I would increase the oil by half.Delete
We have this on the stove on low now. It was too much for the crock pot size we have. I am enjoying the aroma of the allspice as it simmers! We'be made alot of stewa and this one I know is going to be the best! It smells INCREDIBLE. We're having a loaf of italian bread on the side.ReplyDelete
Cold weather is right around the corner, and I just found your recipe. Quick question: what can cooks do to keep veggies crisp-tender when crock-pot cooking this stew? My carrots, onions and celery end up with a consistency more akin to mush than something healthy.ReplyDelete
Mine has been in the crockpot for 5 hours. I just got home and my house smells amazing! I can't wait to try it. I don't feel like mine has enough liquid in it. There broth on mine is a much lower level than in your pics. I can't decide if I should add another can of broth or just let it go. Either way, I can tell it will be delicious! Thanks!ReplyDelete
@LindaMarie, Did this today, I added more broth because I was worried about fluid level too. Will be done in about 20 minutes but smells incredible and I keep stealing vegetables from it. Absolutely delicious, better than my mother's!ReplyDelete
You are my new favorite cooking blog! And I am NOT one to read blogs. This is roasting in my crockpot right now! Thank you!!ReplyDelete
LOL- so glad you took a chance on us Mrs. Swanson! ;) I hope you enjoy your stew!ReplyDelete
I was reading the post about the vegies possibly being a little too mushy. Did yours get that way and should I just cut the vegies bigger? Thanks. I hope to make this for my boyfriend and I. We are both in school and hope to have an easy day. And crock pot cooking seems ideal for that :)ReplyDelete
This is my second time making this recipe, and I love it. This time I added 3/4 pound of frozen corn. ;-)ReplyDelete
Just ate my first bowl, and oh is it delicious! I had the same issue with the size of my crock pot, luckily I have two, so just grabbed the second one and fired them both up. Thanks for the great recipe, allowed a novice hubby cook like myself to make many great meals for my wife and I!ReplyDelete
Of all things, I had no thyme and no allspice on hand. That never happens! Subbed herbs de Provence and I can't stop going over to smell the crock pot. I think my wife and kids are going to love this.ReplyDelete
I'm so glad you all are enjoying the recipe! :)ReplyDelete
I cooked this today and it came out absolutely delicious. I did the long version where I browned the meat in the pan and then put it in the crock pot.ReplyDelete
My 8 year old boy who is picky ate it like a wolf and couldn't stop bragging about it while eating it. That says a lot.
Great recipe and will cook it again for sure.
Made this tonight. Turned out amazing! Thank you so much. Happened to stumble upon you while googling recipes. Will definitely make again.ReplyDelete
I made this last night and it was GREAT! I make beef stew in a crock pot all the time because I think it is a smart idea to stretch a $ and get a lot of nutrients. I did not have any red wine so I left that out but it was still terrific. I have never grilled the onions first before but the extra steps are worth it. And the allspice added some very nice and different flavor! I don't use corn starch because I try to avoid GMO but I use tapioca flour or organic potato starch instead. VERY GOOD!ReplyDelete

This looks yummy- can't wait to try it! Can you add your crockpot size when you get a chance? That would be super helpful. Thanks!ReplyDelete
@ Jessica WilliamsReplyDelete
As there are some variants in seasoned meat tenderizers, what flavor base is the one you use? I do use other forms of meat tenderizers, like home made marinade bases, so I was checking what seasonings are in your seasoned meat tenderizer.
I'm making this right now. I didn't have wine so I just doubled on the broth. Can't wait. Thank you for the recipeReplyDelete
As I was searching for a crockpot beef stew recipe to see if I could get a fresh idea/inspiration I just had to click on your link because I just loved the title of your blog :). Thanks for sharing your recipe.ReplyDelete
Jessica, this is the first pinterest recipe I've tried! Like you, I have a favorite beef bourguignon recipe but it requires a lot of time at home while it'sReplyDelete
cooking on the stovetop. My very particular family and I enjoyed this meal very much. Your recipe was clear and easy to follow. I chose the
longer method and the results were wonderful. I'll be looking for more of your recipes. What's for dinner tomorrow night? Lolly
Looks fabulous. I tried it and the sauce was my favorite part. You are right. The red wine adds a wonderful taste. Thanks for the idea.ReplyDelete
Looks awesome....I'm looking forward to having this simmer in my crock pot all day tomorrow. Quick question, can I do the Browning and deglazing step today, combine everything, and return to the fridge until tomorrow? This would save me some time in the morning.ReplyDeleteReplies
I've never done the browning/ deglazing steps early like that, Jessica, but you know, it's worth a shot?? I like to do those steps to incorporate the added flavor deglazing brings...so if you have to do it the night before or not at all, I say do it the night before. Let me know how it turns out! (I think it will still be fantastic!)Delete
It's been a long cold winter and even though daylight savings time started today, there's no sign of spring yet!ReplyDelete
Was looking for an awesome slow-cooker recipe when I came upon this one. From what I've read in this blog, it should be fantastic.
To perk up the flavor a bit, I added about a cup of Merlot!Replies
I hear ya, medicineman! We have snow forecasted for this week... sigh. Bring on the Beef Stew!Delete
I stumbled across this blog yesterday while looking for some ideas to add a new twist to an old dish. the allspice is what intrigued me. I've used wine, tomatoes and such before and the added richness they bring really compliments the beef. I prepped everything last night and it's in the slow cooker now. I eyeballed the amounts of everything as I was prepping last night and when assembling this morning was pleased to see that everything just fit into my 6 quart cooker. I did add extra liquid, in fact I doubled the wine and quadrupled the broth as I wanted more gravy for the final product. I used fresh mushrooms, as I find the canned variety to be unpleasant tasting, and fresh herbs. I only use dry when I have no choice. there was a post earlier on that someones husband didn't like the texture of tomatoes, I used crushed tomatoes which should break down completely by the time this is done. I don't think I would eliminate them. I'm looking forward to enjoying this tonight, and hope to update with my results later.ReplyDelete
Saw this on Pinterest and decided to toss it all in the slow cooker today. I didn't have any red wine, so I subbed apple juice which should add an interesting flavor. And I've never seen a beef stew recipe that called for allspice before. I'm really looking forward to dinner tonight!ReplyDelete
I made this beef stew yesterday. I agree it is the best crock pot beef stew recipe out there. The allspice is a key ingredient. I've never used an entire cup of red wine in a stew before but it gave it a wonderful flavor. I have experimented with beef stew recipes my entire adult life and so far, I like this one the best. This recipe is a keeper.ReplyDelete
I made this for dinner tonight. I didn't have red wine so doubled the beef broth. I did add a dash of Kitchen Bouquet for flavor. This was a very good beef stew recipe. Thank you for the recipe!ReplyDelete
Excellent recipe! Barely fit in my crock pot.ReplyDelete
I made this about 10 days ago. Hands down, best crockpot beef stew ever. It is even BETTER the next day. Sure to become a family favorite! It is worth the extra effort of browning the meat...ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you- I'm SO glad you enjoyed it!!Delete
I just made this recipe, but cut it in half for our small family. The amount of liquid is concerning me though!! Do I need to add more broth or wine? Or do the vegetables let down a lot of liquid as they cook? Please let me know as soon as you can :) I'm excited to try this, my house smells amazing already!ReplyDelete
I m thinking the same thing. I haven't used my crockpot in awhile so am hoping someone knows the answerReplyDelete
Can either of you report back about the liquid and how it turned out? I have this in my crockpot now and have the same concern.ReplyDelete
Unfortunately due to tendinitis in my right shoulder elbow and wrist I had to buy frozen/precut veggies, just cutting the potatoes and the meat bothered it.ReplyDelete
This looks so inviting. Must make soon - can't wait - mouth watering. tk u for sharing. Merry Christmas!ReplyDelete
Has anyone tried adding fresh green beans to this recipe?ReplyDelete

Treat your audiences to something very special — a journey through the Otherworld — a magical place born from the mythology of many cultures. It's a place of legends, where mythical creatures once existed in harmony among the mountains, islands, springs, and forests. Today, we experience the Otherworld through our imaginations, and perhaps in our dreams.
Now, this mystical realm can be explored in the immersive fulldome environment in a beautiful 50-minute entertainment show that comes from Mediendom Kiel. Magic of the Otherworld invites audiences into virtual landscapes accompanied by the beautiful harp music of Christine Högl.
The show's journey begins deep inside a cave, then we wind our way through enchanted mountain forests, drift along placid streams and peaceful rivers, visit a mystical coastline, and board a fantasy wooden sailing ship for a leap out to the deep expanses of the cosmos.
Magic of the Otherworld is a groundbreaking production, both in terms of its stunning visualization and its use of music. While rock and pop have appeared in the dome in laser shows for years, this is the first time a concert of harp music and animation has been done. Joachim Perschbacher, visual artist and manager of the North Docks production company, worked with Christine to weave together high-end 3D animation and green-screen filming. The result is a magnificent sensory journey, and Christine's gentle harp music transforms the experience into a tour de force of art and music.
Christine Högl has received international acclaim for her musical performances, ranging from live concerts in planetarium domes, open-air concerts in gardens, to the series "Music of Silence" in churches. She collaborated in the production of the virtual landscapes, and through the use of green-screen technology, actually appears occasionally on the dome, playing her harps to accompany the fantastic immersive scenery.
Shows like this are relatively new to the fulldome repertory, and represent an expanded use of the dome. This show paves the way for a cross-disciplinary appreciation of art, science, music, and culture. Use it as a concert, for special events, fundraisers, or simply as an entertaining and mesmerizing blend of art and music. Transform your dome into a multimedia concert hall, with Magic of the Otherworld!

Shows created by Loch Ness Productions come with English language soundtracks standard. Translated soundtracks are provided as additional items, not substitutes for the English ones. If your show's movies contain multiplexed audio, you'll receive separate movie files for each language.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
THAILAND/ASIA PACIFIC-Abac Poll Finds 10 Million Voters Remain Undecided About Election
Released on 2012-10-17 17:00 GMT
|2011-06-23 12:38:54
Report by The Nation: "10 million voters still undecided, Abac Poll finds"
- The Nation Online
Thursday June 23, 2011 03:06:03 GMT
About 10 million voters, 30 per cent of those who plan to cast ballots,
remain undecided about the July 3 election, Abac Poll found in a survey
released yesterday.
The nationwide survey was conducted from June 1-21 on a sample group of
5,349 respondents in 28 selected provinces to gauge the sentiment on
party-list candidates.
One of the survey's conclusions is that 36 million people, accounting for
76 per cent of eligible voters, plan to cast ballots. Given a
7-percentage-point margin of error, voter turnout is projected to range
between 69 and 83 per cent.
About 25 million, or 70 per cent, have already made up th eir mind on
which party they will vote for, according to the survey.
Based on the projection of proportionate votes to be cast, Pheu Thai is in
the lead and should win 46-63 of 125 party-list seats up for grabs in the
House of Representatives. The Democrat Party is projected to win 40-58
Bhum Jai Thai could win up to 17 seats. Chart Pattana Puea Pandin has the
potential to secure up to 13 seats. Other parties have the combined
potential to grab up to 18 seats.
If the vote were to take place today instead of election day, Pheu Thai
might win 55 seats, followed by the Democrats with 49 seats. Bhum Jai Thai
would get eight seats and Chat Pattana Puea Pandin four.

Time to pay up for what you owe! This is what is wrong with this generation, no one feels they are responsible for their actions and decisions .
Then start going after professor salaries. Colleges that keep building new wings all the time.
No kidding , I agree with you. There is no shame with americans anymore. I remember when a handshake would seal a deal. Now the progressives have people reneging on contracts. They go to college for art and basket weaving, then expect to be making 70 grand a year. Not my , nor the rest of the paying publics problem. You eat it !
I may not want the government paying for your bridges, but, I might one day need to drive over them, and not know it yet. Yours is a logical fallacy. You want the nurse or doctor that treats you when you might die from a car accident, to be exhausted from having to work extra hours, while taking care of their families, to pay back unreasonable loan rates when they are attempting to save your life? I would guess no. Again, the govt is not trying to give anybody anything free and clear, they are trying to set reasonable rates and make them standard, so you aren't paying an ever expanding bill. They are trying to make it so that the bill you signed up to pay, is the bill you pay. Also, in terms of contracts, the thing about contracts is, that the economy can change what they mean, and when the economy tanks because of irresponsible folks that can't pay back the real debt (banks, wall street) you can't rescind your signature. America is not separate, we are us and them, join us.
Truly has no e in it. It is difficult to pay student loans back however, I support this bill. You sir are making a blind argument. This bill does not create a world in which you do not have to pay, it means you pay at reasonable rates without being abused by the private financial system. A system that proves over and over again that is criminally abuses our capital at our expense. It is a system that uses our payments and investments of all kinds as gambling money and hikes the rates for their playtime fun, when they make mistakes. Here are some basic economics and just well, a reflection that some of us read the legislation; capping an interest rate at 3.5% is in no way a handout. Do the math if indeed you have a degree. Your argument has no substance.
Dearest Flash, your remark is infantile regurgitation in the plain style of sucker simple. You suggested to whomever claimed to be duped, they should go on ahead and pursue those who had done the duping.
Think really really really hard for a minute and try your darnedest to imagine a hybrid game play of the classic "Ten Thousand Puzzle Piece Dominoes Chutes & Ladders Monopoly Train Set." Once you understand that game theory, you'll quickly adjust your mind so long as logic and reason carry some weight with you.
By the way, I graduated in May and earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology.
However, if 1 in 5 people default on their loans and are unable to contribute to our capitalist economy, what will happen then? Unfortunately, it will be worse than the housing crisis. So before the levee breaks and burdens taxpayers at some point in the future, why not address the problem and pass the bill? Everyone in our society can benefit from the bill – from the student suffering from debt, to the parent who co-signed, to the business owner who needs people to pay for their items. It is a broad problem and HR 4170 addresses the problem in a practical way.
After reading many of the comments about the Student Loan Forgiveness Act, I would like to add a few things. Like so many of you, I am a student burdened by over $130k in student loan debt. Although I was awarded scholarships every year, I needed to borrow money. My middle-class parents were unable to support college costs, but they stressed the importance of a college education. I do not blame my parents at all – they were doing what our society told them to do. That a higher education leads to overall success in life. I also want to stress that I take responsibility for my loans. Since my repayments exceed my full-time income by $300/mo, I would like to see things change. I would like to have the lenders change their own out-dated conditions and access repayments based on income. The reason that they don't is simple – they believe that they would make less money. …
Flash: whatever happened to you to make you so mean? Are you suggesting that these borrowers live on the street and give all their money to the Sallie Mae Corporation or whomever they borrowed from? What's wrong with you? People making part-time or half-time income cannot give $500-$1,000 per month to Sallie Mae.
Don't worry, Andy, things will get better, and there are many of us in your situation. Congress is even starting to wake up. My significant graduated a couple of years ago, as an older student, and now works half-time.
By the way, Flash, it's not "truely," it's "truly."
I agree that tuition prices need to be addressed; the cost of tuition has risen over %800 since 1980. However, the immediate problem is the economy, and some economists are saying that we are in a depression. Money spent repaying debts does not contribute to the GDP, meaning no new products are being purchased. There's about 1 trillion dollars of student debt that isn't going to be spent on new products and services. With an already struggling economy, that is the issue that needs to be addressed first.
Addressing the tuition cost is another issue. One idea is that the government would cut off federal funded student aid from a school if they can't justify tuition rises. That makes sense, but it could ultimately just hurt the students. I think schools should allow students a more active role in the spending of their tuition money. A student government could represent the students's best interests to the school. Of course, the government couldn't implement this.
The fact that 8 people find this comment useful is so sad.
"Wasting money on women's studies or psychology and such" – these are very viable things to study and enhance a needed knowledge in society.
I think I am looking at this bill has as an economic booster, 10% of the income is towards the bill, I paying around 50% of my income towards my loans, so if I was only paying 10% as well as many others, there will be more economic activity, meaning increase in spending, such as houses, and in turn creates a better atmosphere for investment, lower risk, lower price in credit, I can even see the dollar increase in value, therefore making all American's happy, not just a few. I think outside of the box, maybe it time for everybody seek ways of improving the economy outside of the box, is it a handout? Or is it an investment in our economy? That is the question here, I see it as an investment in our economy, making it better for all Americans, as the economy grows all social classes will benefit.
I feel that this will give a boost to the economy, I really do not want a handout, bailout as with the car companies, but the economic situation as brought it on, as many graduates are underemployed or unemployed, 50% of graduates are, there is a need to be a way to give the economy a boost and this is a way. 10% of the income going towards loans gives more income for graduates to invest into the economy helping the communities, businesses and all Americans. It is similar to the bailout of the auto industry; it helped the car companies to realign to be more competitive, how a graduate is loaded down with debt able to obtain a position with a company that looks at your credit for employment. There has to be a solution, and I feel this is a good one.
Please include students with JOINTLY CONSOLIDATED FFEL LOANS in this relief program! My husband and I are in this situation, and while we individually qualify for every program to assist with student loans currently available, because we jointly consolidated at the recommendation of our lender before it was decided it was a horrible idea, we do not qualify for anything! I would at the very least like the opportunity to refinance these loans at a lower interest rate so that we could actually make some progress on this mountain of debt!
Negative amortization. Can't pay the full amount due? Pay what you can right? Then fees, then interest capitalization and the principal balance goes up putting the person deeper into debt.
Example: Undergrad+grad school in Biology =$132000 borrowed for one student. A couple layoffs, months of unemployment, debt goes into hardship forbearance at 7.5% interest and now equals $220000.
A person going into Biotech was told in the early 2000's they could figure on making70-80k with their degree, but ended up with 38k. The loans go into extended payment that is negatively amortizing but gets 'forgiven' after 25 YEARS. The balance now is about 500k. THEN the former student owes a tax bill on the forgiven portion of the loan, likely has no retirement or other savings and is well into middle age.
All those years spent paying student loans and NOT building future security, patronizing business in their community or giving charitable donations and now what? Welfare. Welfare til they die.
I knew that I was going to pay back the amount I borrowed. I made the biggest mistake in taking out private loans. By the time I graduated with my masters degree, the interest was nearly more than the principal. I am truly blessed to have a job where my degree is actually used, however, I make NO money. I've never missed a payment, never been in deferment and nor have I ever or will ever put my loans in forbearance. I was always told that student loan debt is "good debt". That is such a lie. My credit is PERFECT but due to the amount I make and how much "good debt" I am in, I can not get my own home, own car or even a small loan. Getting a degree was to help me get a home and my own car. I do not have money to pay my rent so I had to move back in with my parents. At first I felt horrible but I have great parents that do not charge me rent. I want to own my own home one day and this bill will allow that for me.

At first I felt horrible but I have great parents that do not charge me rent. I want to own my own home one day and this bill will allow that for me. Myself and other want to pay the loan off but we should pay what we borrowed. I borrowed 35k, no 50k.
My degree is in Criminal Justice. There will always be crime but there will not always be job. I'm working my butt off to pay my loans. No, I don't want my loans to be wiped clean but repayment options would help. I make 32K a year and I work 2 part time jobs. You must bring in 6 figures to pay off your debt in the amount of time. That is great and I am happy for you but not everyone has it like you.
I worked 2 jobs during school and that was to pay for my own housing gas and food. the basic necessities of life. i didnt have money for cars or anything. i went to college to get educated and find a decent job. i started school in 2005 and when i was done in 2010 with 2 degrees i had 23 thousand in debt. im so sick of seeing people blame us students or say we dont deserve any forgiveness. we dont want the debt to disapear i support this bill because i know how hard it is trying to pay ur loans back and this bill would give me the oppurtunity to do that. we took the loans because college is supposed to help u get a good paying job. but somewhere in the mix all the good jobs are now in other countries. college graduates cant get work service men lost their homes while they were oversees and all Republicans can say is "well those college kids shouldnt have gone to school if they couldnt afford it and those army men shouldnt have bought houses before they got shipped out"
AGREED ! and well stated – it is unfortunate that we are in this position, but the solution is NOT to avoid solution. History shows, people cannot repay and feed their kids. Settling SOME of the debt is way better than none – why do you suppose so many creditors offer discounts on old debt ? It would be a huge step in boosting our economy.
The taxpayer is currently involved in all of this debt. Look at the numbers – the debt keeps climbing and none of it is being given back. people get crushed by it and can't move forward. I agree there are lots of underlying issues that should also be dealt with, but this is a great way to get things back on track for millions of Americans. This is not the problem of a few, this is the problem of many.
I am unsure about Andy, but the US Government Duped me. I was completely and totally convinced that I would need that piece of paper to succeed. And my parents and myself were literally advised that this was the best and only way to have a future. They even brought representatives right into the high schools to help you sign your life away. Lowered payments were not an option for us when we could not get the jobs to make the pay. The government failed to support industry in the US costing many jobs that we were promised would be there. I do not regret my decision to attend school, only my decision to borrow to do so. I don't run up credit cards and buy homes I can't afford and yet those folks get forgiveness by the government – I am asking the government to provide a little help for me – so I can have a chance at helping my own children succeed.
Very proud of all the folks who were able to pay their loans back. Congrats. Some of us were taken advantage of and misled by the lenders and financial aid offices of our schools. Not many 19 year olds truly understand what they are getting themselves into when they take out student loans. I was told, "everyone does this" and "they have a cap of how much they can ask you to pay". BS. I have over $140k in private and federal loans going into a profession that does not support that kind of education debt. The laws passed in 2005 that protected the private student loans in the same fashion as federal loans are unconstitutional. No other lender in the world gets such protections. Imagine if every credit card company could go after you the same way Sallie Mae can, wage garnishment, insurmountable collection fees, taking away professional licenses, etc. The blame is partly my own but I cannot and will not take all of it. I was misled and deceived by a corrupt industry and I demand change.
Four Years*, typo. Not for years. LOL!
I know*, typo. Not "DI know".
Sorry for all the typo's, guess I need to double check what I send so I don't look like a dummy!
Andy, I understand your concern and I feel for you. However, there is not one person that held a gun to your head and made you go to college that cost 80K. Looking for a job? Join the military. They have student loan repayment plans where they will pay off your student loans in its entirety for a commitment of 5 or 6 years. I am a veteran that saw this coming…(student loans). I went into the Army, served for years and got my GI bill. I didn't ask for a "handout" as other people here have said you are looking for. Granted it is technically "government money", however it is also an employment contract. You have guaranteed work for 5 years, student loans wiped out and you can go directly to OCS (officer candidate school). DI know you have said you were over qualified for fast food and I agree, but our military is in need of REAL leaders. I was there and I have worked for some pretty dumb officers. Make a change and join the military, doesn't matter what branch!
Forgiveness is a terrible idea. People will never learn from their poor decisions. Putting a cap on interest rates or capping deferment penalties may help but the loan provider needs to get their investment back plus interest for taking the risk.
I have some friends who missed loan payments and had to differ a number of times. They blame the loan provide and in each case it was my friend who made terrible decisions on how to spend their money. Buying new cars, spending hundreds going out partying every month, vacations, etc. Fools.
Undergrad loans: $40,000+ at 7.1% 1995 – 1998, $10,000+ at 5.7% in 1999-2000.
Racked up an addition $15,000 in credit card debt
Graduated and paid off all debts by 2006
Graduate school loans: $35,000 at 6.5% 2006 – 2008
Zero credit card debt (learned my lesson)
Graduated and paid off loan in 2012
Also worked part to full time during undergrad and grad school.
Success = picking a degree with a good ROI in a field I liked, stayed in state at a public school, worked my ass off, networked, got jobs within my field during school, got involved in on-campus groups related to my field.

text: Interesting. Didn't see this posted previously so hopefully not a repeat. I'm thrilled to have CW stay at ND and not come into the NFL. BB pipeline guys who are in the college ranks HELP us (by helping to identify potential draftees, and potential weaknesses of players that they may have recently played against who are now in the NFL). Conversely, they HURT us when they are in the NFL, because they try to institute similar philosophies and draft similar players. http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/story/5613238

Rice Recipes
Yeah I said it! Rice.:laugh: I have fallen in love with Miracle Rice, I think possibly even more than the noodles. I just made a quick soup with MR, chicken broth, rotel, and shaved mozzarella cheese:yummy:
I need rice recipes. Stuffed things (the only thing I can think of is bell peppers and they are kind of high in carbs), casseroles, anything you got. It can be a high carb recipe, I can de-carb it. I just don't know where to start.
Lobster Dien Bien
These two dishes were originally made with rice cooked in some of the seafood stock. You might like to try your Miracle Rice in one of these:
Lobster Dien Bien
Shrimp and/or Crawfish Dien Bien
I lived in Hampton, Virginia in high school and my family often drove to Yorktown 30 miles away to eat at this wonderful restaurant called Nick's Seafood Pavilion, operated by a Greek family. Sadly, Nick's no longer exists. But I often think fondly of one of their signature dishes, Lobster Dien Bien. My Dad and Mom managed to concoct their own version of the dish over time. My version is not quite the same, because I have to modify it for low-carb eating, but it's real close. The original dish had 1 cup of rice (cooked in lobster stock) stirred in right before serving. This dish reminds me of a Spanish paella, but on Atkins, we could serve this seafood dish over steamed cauli-rice or simple oven-baked eggplant slices. I can't get very good lobster in Central Texas, so I fix this more often with shrimp now. It's divine with lobster and quite good with shrimp and even large sea scallops. I have also made it with fresh lump white crab meat (when I lived on the Gulf Coast). As is true of most seafood dishes, this one really packs in the nutrients! This dish is OK for Induction.
1 lb. lobster meat, cut in bite-size pieces (or shrimp or crawfish tails, shelled)
1 stick unsalted butter
½ c. onion, chopped
1 c. celery, chopped
1 carrot, grated
1 2 oz. jar pimiento, drained
1/3 c. parsley, chopped
¼-½ tsp. cayenne pepper
10 drops Tobasco
½ tsp. ground thyme
DIRECTIONS: Saute onion, celery and carrot in melted butter until onion and celery are completely tender. Add parsley and pimiento. Add seafood and remaining seasonings. Simmer on low heat for 15 minutes only. For non-Atkins diners, add some cooked rice. For Atkins diners, serve with steamed cauli-rice, spaghetti squash, sauteed mushrooms or oven-baked eggplant slices. (To steam cauli-rice, grate or food process raw cauliflower to fine grains and steam in microwave for 2-3 minutes, stirring every minute).

I add miracle rice to my cabbage, laughing cow, chicken (or shrimp) mixture. lots of tasty bulk for no cals. I also love curried "rice" and chicken.
What is miracle rice and where do you find it?
I make a stuffed pepper casserole for my dh. And it goes like this.
Stuffed pepper casserole
2 cups of cooked rice
1 can diced tomatos
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 green bell pepper chopped
1/2 chopped onion
1 lb. cooked hamburger
1/2 tsp. italian seasoning
Saute the onion , bell pepper, and mix it all together. Pour into a casserole dish and bake for 40 to 50 minutes at 350.
I think the only thing you would have to change is the rice.
I miss my jasmine rice sooooooo much--maybe the smell of it cooking as much as the taste but dang I miss it--maybe there could be a replacement?????
Wow, I never heard of miracle rice, but I'm off to Whole Foods to see if they carry it. Otherwise I'll order it online. I'm thinking any stir-fry recipe served over rice, or you could just mix the rice in to make more of a casserole dish.
And if I like them AT ALL, I'll try my old stuffed grape leaves recipe (ground beef or lamb, onions, and rice), but I'll have to dig it out.
Ok, here are my two favorite recipes that contain rice:
Cheeseburger Pitas
1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 cup cooked long grain rice
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
4 pita breads (6 inches), halved
In a large skillet, cook the beef, onion and green pepper over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the rice, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Stir in cheese; cover and cook 2-3 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Spoon 1/2 cup into each pita half. Yield: 4 servings.
I eat the above one in low carb pitas or tortillas now, and omit the rice. I think it would be good with your miracle rice. The next one is more rice-based. It tastes like chili rellenos! I'm going to fix it with cauliflower next week. Both recipes are from Taste of Home magazine and website.
Green Chili Rice Casserole Recipe
4 cups cooked rice
2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chilies
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 pound Monterey Jack cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cups (16 ounces) sour cream
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 8 servings.
Is it just like the Shiratake Noodles, only cut into rice size pieces? I saw some on Olive Nation for $2.99 per bag and it looks just like that, cut up Shirataki noodles and it's made by the same people. Please let me know, okay. TIA
Is Miracle Rice anything like Miracle Noodles? If so, I will stick with cauliflower.
Just wondering, why is the Dien Bien a little on the high carb side? Is seafood high in carbs?
Yes, some seafoods have carbs. Lobster has 1.8 carbs per cup. Plus, jsut look how many different veggies are in it, Tilly, including pimiento. Carbs add up, even small amounts per veggie ingredient. :)
Netrition sells them
Stuffed grape leaves would be good - a little lean ground lamb or beef and this "rice" and some Greek seasonings, topped with a lemony hollandaise - mmmm mouth watering.
Rice pilaf, chicken and rice casserole, rice pudding?
I use them in soup and also love it in yogurt.

Thank you Billie!
This afternoon I made Spanish Rice with ground beef and the Miracle Rice. I was one who could *not* stomach the texture of the shirataki noodles, but the rice I love. I squirt a little lemon over the rice after rinsing, or into the soaking water, and that funky smell is gone immediately.
Thanks for that link, Billie! I downloaded it!
Ya'll are welcome!! I downloaded it to!
I guess sometimes it is good when your "smeller" don't work too well. (Unfortunately, sometimes it works overtime! :sad:) But I hardly ever smell anything off or "fishy" as some people say about the noodles. Even when I first open the package! Guess it's a blessing. But I do still rinse them VERY well!
I've opened a package of the Konjac (not Miracle Noodle) noodles I bought the other day. I've rinsed them, and now have them draining. Still trying to make up my mind what I'm gonna fix. :cry:And I need to get it done. NEED to eat!! I THINK they are the fettuccine, but May be the linguine! They aren't marked!!! (MsWoods & I have had a conversation going on about that in her Everything Shiratake... sticky thread.)
The Pasta Pie (but adding some ham or browned hamburger - I know not vegetarian) to it sounds like something I may try sometime. But not right now, gotta do something quicker today.
I opened a package and the smell was overwhelming. The noodles did not smell, and I tried hard to eat them but just could not. Not sure why. That brain put too much thought into them! :confused: Now if someone put them in front of me without telling me, I'm sure I would have snarfed them down. Anyway, I downloaded the booklet. Thank you for the link! I may just stick with Zoodles.
Thanks for the cookbook link. I think you could use Dreamfield's if you don't care for the shirataki stuff in the recipes.
Thanks for the tip on the free download. I'm looking forward to checking out the recipes.
Thanks for the download--I have it saved in my recipe file. During the summer I often cook up a bunch of veggies at lunchtime (broccoli, pea pods, green onions, squash, whatever is on hand) and stir-fry in a bunch of rinsed and drained shiritake noodles, cut into 4" pieces. If I feel like I need a little protein, I add a few shrimp or a little cut-up chicken.
For the sauce, I mix up a concoction of rice vinegar, sweetener (I use erythritol and sweetzfree), catsup, hot peppers, sugar free hot chili garlic sauce (found in some grocery stores and in all Asian markets) , grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, and peanut butter. For an extra added kick, stir in some chopped fresh cilantro.
This makes a lot, but is so low carb and so low calorie, that it's okay to eat it all in one sitting.
I would definitely like to try this with the miracle rice, as I love the shiritake noodles that I'm currently using!
I made stuffed green peppers with the rice shirataki when I had it. Pretty darn good!!
I am going to have to look into this.
Chicken and Rice Jambalaya
I haven't tried Miracle Rice, but I came across this recipe in my local paper and thought I'd like to give it a shot.
Serves: 4
Preparation: 30 minutes
4 large boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 2-inch chunks (15 ounces)
Salt and pepper
1/2 Tbs olive oil
3 oz chicken-and-turkey andouille sausage, cut into 1-inch slices
1 tsp adobo powder
1/4 tsp chipotle chili powder
1 1/2 cups yellow onion, chopped
1 cup red bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2/3 cup reduced=sodium chicken broth
Two 8-ounce packages of Miracle Rice, rinsed
1/2 cup canned black beans, drained
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick pan over med-heat. Once oil has stated to smoke, add chicken. Brown for 2-3 min, turning once. Remove chicken and add sausage, brown for 1 min, turning once.
Add the adobo and chili powder and cook for 30 sec. Add onion, reduce to med-low heat and caramelize until soft and browned, 6-8 min. Add peppers and garlic, cook until soft, about 2-min.
Add chicken, broth, Miracle Rice and black beans. Bring to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, over med to low heat about 5-min, or until chicken is cooked through and the sauce is slightly thickened.
Per serving: 233 calories; 8 g fat; 103 mg cholesterol; 13 g carbohydrate; 28 g protein; 4 g fiber; 862 mg sodium.
I'm planning on cutting back on carbs by using pork andouille sausage and maybe less onion and peppers.
FYI: The recipe states that this dish gets better with time, so don't hesitate to make it up to 24 hours in advance.
So did the original recipe call for the rice to be cooked or uncooked when added to the dish? I'd like to use quinoa and can add it either way, just not sure which the original would have called for.
Sounds delicious!
I read the recipe again and doesn't specify cooked or uncooked. It just says rinsed Miracle Rice and then it's added in the last step with the chicken, broth and beans. I'm assuming it's added uncooked, but I've never cooked with any of the "Miracle" products, so I'm not sure. Sorry.
OK, I love this stuff. My Miracle Rice came yesterday and here is what I made for lunch:
1 lb ground beef
1/2 teaspoon garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons onion, chopped
1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes (only used 1/2 of it)
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
pinch of oregano
1 cup italian cheese, shredded
1 bag Miracle Rice
Salt and pepper
Browned the ground beef along with the onion and garlic. Drained the fat and added the chopped tomatoes (with some of the juice), basil, oregano, salt and pepper, and italian cheese.
Meanwhile, rinsed and drained the bag of rice. Put it in a dry hot skillet for a couple minutes to get rid of excess moisture. Then added the rice to the ground beef mixture.
Cooked and stirred for a couple minutes.
This was excellent.
I tried making rice pudding with 1 1/2 cups Almond Breeze, 5 egg whites, a tablespoon glucomannan, vanilla, cinammon, sweetener, and a bag of Miracle Rice.
It was quite good while it was hot and I thought it would make a wonderful hot cereal for breakfast, but once it got cold, it tasted like glue and I threw it out.
Now I have to order more and think I'll stick to main course recipes. Want to try chicken and rice for sure.
I think this question was asked, but not exactly answered. I have the noodles, but wonder if I could make them into "rice" by processing them some way. Has anyone tried it?

In looking ahead to the 2012-13 marketing year, we find that expectations of a recovery for the Chinese milling industry are running low. The USDA's first estimate in May was for zero growth, at 41 million bales, well below the historical norm. The June crop report revised that forecast down by 1 million bales. That would be the lowest Chinese cotton consumption since 2004-05.Certainly, if that scenario played out as predicted, we would see export sales dry up sooner or later because of the shopping spree we've witnessed over recent months. Using current estimates, Chinese ending stocks for 2012-13 would shoot up to 31 million bales, or a gargantuan 78% of usage.
Virtually all key producing countries have planted fewer acres for the 2012-13 crop year than they did for 2011-12. The US will harvest a larger crop than it did in 2011-12 regardless, because of the disastrous crop failure. So the global crop will be just a bit smaller than last year, but consumption will be down by 5% according to preliminary USDA estimates. That would leave a burdensome, record-by-far, 67%-of-usage global carryout.
As a result, the extraordinary export activity notwithstanding, it's hard to make a convincing bullish case with the way the balance sheet looks now.
There are, however, two areas of vulnerability. It's early in the growing season, and the major producers must get through without crop problems. In addition, the assumption that Chinese mills will not use more than 40 million bales for the second consecutive year could turn out to be misplaced.
We believe that all the bearish possibilities are embedded in the new-crop prices. December cotton is trading at or below the cost of production. At one point this month, the spread between new- and old-crop prices soared to soared 13.5¢, and even after collapsing, still presents the opportunity to buy a substantial discount to spot prices (Chart 2).
Buy December cotton. Place initial stops at 64¢ per pound, close only.

.- Speaking from his window overlooking St. Peter's Square this Sunday. Pope Benedict XVI reflected on the tremendous importance of prayer in the life of Christians, especially in light of today's Gospel readings.
"The evangelist Luke underlines that Jesus went up the mountain 'to pray' (9,28) with the Apostles Peter, James and John." According to Benedict, "For the three Apostles, going up the mountain means being involved in the prayer of Jesus."
Unlike the other times Jesus goes away to pray, "only this time, on the mountain, does He manifest His interior light to his friends."
The Pope drew attention to another important detail in the account, something "that deserves to be underlined: the indication of the topic of the conversation between Jesus, Moses and Elias." According to the Gospel, "They were speaking about his 'exodus,' that would take place in Jerusalem" (9,31).
"Thus," continued His Holiness, "Jesus is listening to the Law and the Prophets speaking about His death and resurrection." By embracing the Father's Will "with His entire person," Jesus shows us that "true prayer consists of the union of our will with God's Will." As a result, "for a Christian, praying is not avoiding reality and responsibility."
The Pope then drew the conclusion that "the transfiguration, paradoxically, is truly verified in the agony in Gethsemane." This is because "in His immense passion, Jesus experienced anguish and entrusted Himself to the Divine Will."
The Pope concluded his address, emphasizing that "prayer is not an accessory, an optional [thing], but a question of life and death." Moreover, he continued, "only those who pray - that is - those who trust themselves to God with a filial love, can enter into eternal life."
Following his address the Holy Father greeted the thousands of pilgrims in their diverse languages.

FEAR - What is this I don't even...
Had FEAR for years, right around the time it launched as a matter of fact but I've never (yes, never) finished it but that's not the point of this thread... although do feel free to antagonize me about not finishing a now 6-year-old game.
The point of this thread is to address a couple of things:
1. What is with the lagging both in the menus and during gameplay? That's just annoying.
2. You'd think I'd be getting fantastic performance given my specs right? Wrong. The benchmark reports I should be getting anything from 59 to well over 100 frames during play, which still seems extremely low but then again I am forcing 12xEQ AA and using SSAA so that's not a bother. The problem being in actual gameplay the frames are 51 and below, so below that once I made it to the first fire after exiting the car, you know, the fire in the garbage can, frames dropped to 13 and wouldn't go up again.
I'm using the Crysis.exe CFX profile if it matters. I'm also running everything on Maximum. And by everything I mean everything.

Windows 7 Pro. 64/SP-1
Looking at your system specs and your HD6950 CrossfireX I have no idea why your not flying through games. I presume you have your drivers updated. I wish I could help.
|My System Specs
|24 Jun 2012
Game now smooth? If so start forcing settings until it becomes 'unsmooth'
If not - disable CF. I can't remember if this is a CF friendly game or not. But a single 6950 should om nom it anyway.
Try one of the compatibility modes. XP SP3 for a start since it's an XP era title.
If those don't work - scratch head. Return to drawing board.
|My System Specs
|24 Jun 2012
Good idea. Will report back in a few.
|My System Specs
|25 Jun 2012
Okay. Reverting back app only AA didn't do any good. Started off in the high 100's and then progressively lowered and lowered, and after about 5 or so minutes it was capped at 15.
Disabling Crossfire (read: disabling support, not actually turning Crossfire "off") - same deal.

This is starting to ring a bell - I recall having the same issue. It had something to do with a HID device.
FEAR, Logitech HID bad performance - nV News Forums
G5/G7/G15 + FEAR ! Solved ! (F.E.A.R.) - Logitech Forums
From memory I kept disabling HID devices in Device Manager until I found the culprit - and viola! FPS back to normal.
(Just make sure you don't disable your mouse or keyboard! - create a restore point first, just in case)
|My System Specs

Windows 7 home premium x64
I always found all the FEAR games lagged regardless of how good the machine was.
Really you cannot overcome the limitations and\or bugs that the engine carries.
This link details some of the reasons why the game is difficult to get to run right.
|My System Specs
|25 Jun 2012
In this instance though, the FPS drop then cap was solved by disabling HID devices. At least it did for me when I last played it.
I honestly don't remember how well it played after that. (I can't even remember what rig/setup I played it on... ) All I can remember it was definitely 'smoother' and playable once the frame rate cap was fixed. It certainly wasn't one of the better engines, that's for sure.
|My System Specs
|26 Jun 2012
So here's a synopsis of how spot on Patrick was with the HID problem:
With keyboard and mouse: low 50's, average 70's, maximum 120+
Without keyboard and mouse: low 120's, average 250's, maximum 700+
Like, really, Sierra? In order to not have a 13-15 frame cap with my Logi hardware after 5 or so minutes I'll either have to play the game telepathically or with PS/2 stuff? That's... that's not even. I'm uninstalling this.
EDIT: Okay so maybe I was a little short and hasty. Disabling all HID-Compliant Devices these are the new numbers:
minimum 165, average 354, maximum 860
Now, do I leave them disabled permanently or do I only disable them when playing FEAR leaving them enabled everywhere else?
|My System Specs
|10 Jul 2012
New day, new problem, although this time it isn't with FEAR; HID fix/workaround is working like a charm, although if I forget to re-enable the devices I'll eventually BSOD... but that's neither here nor there . Today the problem is with my Xonar DX and the inability to enable EAX effects in the game despite having read reviews where such was enabled under a 7 environment.
Any help would be appreciated. But a bit to go on: all EAX effects are grayed out and I've ticked the GX button on the Xonar console and it doesn't do a thing. I've run FEAR in just about every compatibility mode there is and still nothing.
