Pundits feed destructive passivity on economy
If you were shocked by Friday's job report, if you thought we were doing well and were taken aback by the bad news, you haven't been paying attention. The fact is, the U.S. economy has been stuck in a rut for a year and a half.
Policies that boost corporate cash won't create jobs
Watching the evolution of economic discussion in Washington over the past couple of years has been a disheartening experience. Month by month, the discourse has gotten more primitive; with stunning speed, the lessons of the 2008 financial crisis have been forgotten, and the very ideas that g…
On debt ceiling, Obama must face down extortionists
In about a month, if nothing is done, the federal government will hit its legal debt limit. There will be dire consequences if this limit isn't raised. At best, we'll suffer an economic slowdown; at worst we'll plunge back into the depths of the 2008-09 crisis.
Medicare actually saves money vs. private route
Every once in a while a politician comes up with an idea that's so bad, so wrongheaded, that you're almost grateful. For really bad ideas can help illustrate the extent to which policy discourse has gone off the rails.
Let's tell the truth on GOP plan to end Medicare
What's in a name? A lot, the National Republican Congressional Committee obviously believes. Last week, the committee sent a letter demanding that a TV station stop running an ad declaring that the House Republican budget plan would "end Medicare." This, the letter insisted, was a false clai…
Europe foolishly in grip of the austerity fantasy
I often complain, with reason, about the state of economic discussion in the United States. And the irresponsibility of certain politicians - like those Republicans claiming that defaulting on U.S. debt would be no big deal - is scary.
Tea Party GOP holding economy hostage on debt
Six months ago President Obama faced a hostage situation. Republicans threatened to block an extension of middle-class tax cuts unless Obama gave in and extended tax cuts for the rich too. And the president essentially folded, giving the GOP everything it wanted.
Elites, not general public, caused economic crisis
The past three years have been a disaster for most Western economies. The United States has mass long-term unemployment for the first time since the 1930s. Meanwhile, Europe's single currency is coming apart at the seams. How did it all go so wrong?
Only one budget plan calls for shared sacrifice
When I listen to discussions of the federal budget, the message I hear sounds like this: We must take drastic action immediately! And we must keep taxes low, if not actually cut them further!
Civility irrelevant when sides are so far apart
Last week, President Obama offered a spirited defense of his party's values - in effect, of the legacy of the New Deal and the Great Society. Immediately thereafter, as always happens when Democrats take a stand, the civility police came out in force. The president, we were told, was being t…
Nation needs a president willing to take a stand
What have they done with President Obama? What happened to the inspirational figure his supporters thought they elected? Who is this bland guy who doesn't seem to stand for anything?
Cynical careerism may hinder solving climate change
So the joke begins like this: An economist, a lawyer and a professor of marketing walk into a room. What's the punch line? They were three of the five "expert witnesses" Republicans called for last week's congressional hearing on climate science.
GOP selling bad ideas that Dems don't bother to fight
"Liquidate labor, liquidate stocks, liquidate the farmers, liquidate real estate." That, according to Herbert Hoover, was the advice he received from Andrew Mellon, the Treasury secretary, as America plunged into depression. To be fair, there's some question about whether Mellon actually said that.
Threat of GOP smear campaigns chills research
Recently William Cronon, a historian at the University of Wisconsin, started a blog, "Scholar as Citizen," devoted to his state's political turmoil. His first post explored the role of the shadowy American Legislative Exchange Council in pushing hard-line conservative legislation at the stat…
Attacks on Warren aim to protect bankers' agenda
Last week, at a House hearing, Republicans lined up to grill and attack Elizabeth Warren, the law professor who is in charge of setting up the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Ostensibly, they believed that Warren had overstepped her legal authority by helping state attorneys genera…
Mortgage settlement is the least bankers can do
Count me among those who were glad to see the documentary "Inside Job" win an Oscar. The film reminded us that the financial crisis of 2008, whose aftereffects are still blighting the lives of millions of Americans, was made possible by bad behavior by bankers, regulators and, yes, economists.
Education won't assure middle-class security
It is a truth universally acknowledged that education is the key to economic success. That's why, in an appearance Friday with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, President Obama declared that "if we want more good news on the jobs front then we've got to make more investments in education."
Texas solving its budget gap by hurting its children
Will 2011 be the year of fiscal austerity? At the federal level, it's still not clear: Republicans are demanding draconian spending cuts, but we don't yet know how far they're willing to go in a showdown with President Obama. At the state and local level, however, there's no doubt about it: …
Wis. union-busting about not budget, but power
Last week, in the face of protest demonstrations against Wisconsin's new union-busting governor, Scott Walker - demonstrations that continued through the weekend, with huge crowds on Saturday - Rep. Paul Ryan made an unintentionally apt comparison: "It's like Cairo has moved to Madison."
GOP's plan to cut spending: sacrifice the future
On Friday, House Republicans unveiled their proposal for immediate cuts in federal spending. Uncharacteristically, they failed to accompany the release with a catchy slogan. So I'd like to propose one: Eat the Future.
Attack warming, or food prices will only go higher
We're in the midst of a global food crisis - the second in three years. World food prices hit a record in January, driven by huge increases in prices for wheat, corn, sugar and oils. This had only a modest effect on U.S. inflation, which is still low by historical standards, but it's having …
Fed, EU need to resist pressure to raise interest rates
Last Saturday, The Financial Times reported, some of the world's most powerful financial executives were going to hold a private meeting with finance ministers in Davos, Switzerland, the site of the World Economic Forum. The principal demand of the executives, the newspaper suggested, would …
GOP's Ryan clueless about European debt crises
President Obama's State of the Union address was a ho-hum affair. But the official Republican response, from Rep. Paul Ryan, was really interesting. And I don't mean that in a good way.
Obama's 'competitiveness' theme misses problem
Meet the new buzzword, same as the old buzzword. In advance of the State of the Union, President Obama has telegraphed his main theme: competitiveness. The president's Economic Recovery Advisory Board has been renamed the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. And in his Saturday r…
GOP's health-care 'analysis' ushers in war on logic
My wife and I were thinking of going out for an inexpensive dinner tonight. But John Boehner, the speaker of the House, says that no matter how cheap the meal may seem, it will cost thousands of dollars once you take our monthly mortgage payments into account.
Fundamental divisions dampen hope for dialogue
On Wednesday in Tucson, President Obama called on Americans to "expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy, and remind ourselves of all the ways our hopes and dreams are bound together." Those were beautiful words; they spoke t…
There's a difference between insults, incitement
When you heard the terrible news from Arizona, were you completely surprised? Or were you, at some level, expecting something like this atrocity to happen?
Jobless rate should temper optimism over economy
If there's one piece of economic wisdom I hope people will grasp this year, it's this: Even though we may finally have stopped digging, we're still near the bottom of a very deep hole.
Commodity price increases reflect growing demand
Oil is back above $90 a barrel. Copper and cotton have hit record highs. Wheat and corn prices are way up. Overall, world commodity prices have risen by a quarter in the past six months.
Obama has opened doors to zombie economic ideas
When historians look back at 2008-10, what will puzzle them most, I believe, is the strange triumph of failed ideas. Free-market fundamentalists have been wrong about everything - yet they now dominate the political scene.
Obama-GOP tax deal unlikely to give sustained boost
Like it or not - and I don't - the Obama-McConnell tax-cut deal, with its mixture of very bad stuff and sort-of-kind-of good stuff, is likely to pass Congress. Then what?
Tax deal could return to bite Obama in 2012
I've spent the past couple of days trying to make my peace with the Obama-McConnell tax-cut deal. President Obama did, after all, extract more concessions than most of us expected.
Obama should call GOP blackmail on tax cuts
Back in 2001, President George W. Bush pulled a fast one. He wanted to enact an irresponsible tax cut, largely for the benefit of the wealthiest Americans. But there were Senate rules in place designed to prevent that kind of irresponsibility. So Bush evaded the rules by making the tax cut t…
Trapped Spanish economy a contrast to US' flexibility
The best thing about the Irish right now is that there are so few of them. By itself, Ireland can't do all that much damage to Europe's prospects. The same can be said of Greece and of Portugal, which is widely regarded as the next potential domino.
GOP shows little interest in making gov't work
Former Sen. Alan Simpson is a Very Serious Person. He must be - after all, President Obama appointed him co-chairman of a special commission on deficit reduction.
Obama can do uplift, but needs to take a stand
On Wednesday, David Axelrod, President Obama's top political adviser, appeared to signal that the White House was ready to cave on tax cuts - to give in to Republican demands that tax cuts be extended for the wealthy as well as the middle class. "We have to deal with the world as we find it,…
Diluting plans to rescue economy guarantees failure
Eight years ago Ben Bernanke, already a governor at the Federal Reserve although not yet chairman, spoke at a conference honoring Milton Friedman. He closed his talk by addressing Friedman's famous claim that the Fed was responsible for the Great Depression, because it failed to do what was …
Moralizers win out on spending, so slump goes on
"How many of you people want to pay for your neighbor's mortgage that has an extra bathroom and can't pay their bills?" That's the question CNBC's Rick Santelli famously asked in 2009, in a rant widely credited with giving birth to the tea party movement.
Inadequate stimulus about to take political toll
This is what happens when you need to leap over an economic chasm - but either can't or won't jump far enough, so that you only get part of the way across.
China too willing to resort to economic warfare
Last month a Chinese trawler operating in Japanese-controlled waters collided with two vessels of Japan's coast guard. Japan detained the trawler's captain; China responded by cutting off Japan's access to crucial raw materials.
Despite claims, gov't hasn't expanded under Obama
Here's the narrative you hear everywhere: President Obama has presided over a huge expansion of government, but unemployment has remained high. And this proves that government spending can't create jobs.
GOP presidential candidates on Fox News payroll
A note to tea party activists: This is not the movie you think it is. You probably imagine that you're starring in "The Birth of a Nation," but you're actually just extras in a remake of "Citizen Kane."
'Structural' unemployment isn't the problem
What can be done about mass unemployment? All the wise heads agree: There are no quick or easy answers. There is work to be done, but workers aren't ready to do it - they're in the wrong places, or they have the wrong skills. Our problems are "structural" and will take many years to solve.
US needs to tax Chinese imports that depress jobs
Last week Japan's minister of finance declared that he and his colleagues wanted a discussion with China about the latter's purchases of Japanese bonds, to "examine its intention" - diplomat-speak for "Stop it right now." The news made me want to bang my head against the wall.
It is necessary for US to spend its way out of debt
Here's the situation: The U.S. economy has been crippled by a financial crisis. The president's policies have limited the damage, but they were too cautious, and unemployment remains disastrously high. More action is needed. Yet the public has soured on government activism, and seems poised …
Data show that US needs another stimulus round
This week, President Obama is scheduled to propose new measures to boost the economy. I hope they're bold and substantive, since the Republicans will oppose him regardless - if he came out for motherhood, the GOP would oppose that. So he should put them on the spot for standing in the way.
Moderate GOP leaders silent as partisans overstep
The last time a Democrat sat in the White House, he faced a nonstop witch hunt by his political opponents. Prominent figures on the right accused Bill and Hillary Clinton of everything from drug smuggling to murder. And once Republicans took control of Congress, they subjected the Clinton ad…
Effort to keep tax cuts for rich is rooted in corruption
We need to pinch pennies these days. Don't you know we have a budget deficit? For months, that has been the word from Republicans and conservative Democrats, who have rejected every suggestion that we do more to avoid deep cuts in public services and help the ailing economy.
Myths about waste, low taxes for rich wear US away
The lights are going out all over America - literally. Colorado Springs has made headlines with its desperate attempt to save money by turning off a third of its streetlights, but similar things are either happening or being contemplated across the nation, from Philadelphia to Fresno.
Officials should not accept joblessness as normal
I'm starting to have a sick feeling about prospects for American workers - but not, or not entirely, for the reasons you might think.

How to determine cleaning value of detergent? ASTM Method online but not enough information: ASTM = American Society of Testing and Materials (scientists or methods)
I'm degreed in electronics, chemistry and optics. But I've not done any analysis for detergents. I figure it's simple. Get some grease and find out how much can go into solution , in water, using a fixed
But that takes work. and well I suppose I could do it. I'm just buying a lot, of detergent, because I'm moving into a new home and have the thought if I buy plenty of
My concern is how to ensure I get the best value. First I need to specify what I need to have. A. No dyes. No perfume. Clean and clear. Because I use it for everything. It works for my shampoo, my hand washing,
I even found , one summer, if I evaporate a pan of it I can get a very nice 'bar' .of detergent. It's a kind of very thick
It's amazing how little one uses for washing hands. One or two drops. I've got dispensers I've made. Take a plastic lidded container. Put a small hole in the top and using GOOP adhesive glue whatever kind(s)
Anyway I'm pretty committed to it and without the free and clear I'd never use it. But now that I am I'd like to be
All Free and Clear has $2 off coupons till 2-7 and my store has 50oz for $4.00 after coupon. Not the best price as
Maybe you can offer some other choices. Remember many people read these posts not only the forum users but Google users, Yahoo and AoL users and 100's

I use detergent for clothes and dishwashing. The criteria is how well it works. As for price I have a couple of favorites and they all go on sale sometimes and that's when I stock up. I use less than their recommended amount, and it works just as well. I would hate to use detergent to wash my hair or hands. I have enough problems with dry skin. Detergent pollutes our water so I use it as little as possible |
I buy whatever is on sale at my local grocery,then use HALF the recommended amount. A bottle of Dawn lasts forever, as does a box of Cascade and a bottle of Gain Laundry detergent. I'll hand wash a glass or coffee cup rather than load my dishwasher. This is as "green" as I get. |
I buy coupons on ebay for laundry detergent, stock up while its on sale with the 20 coupons for a dollar off or whatever. But I have no earthly idea which one you could use to both degrease car parts and wash your hair with, lol. |

text: I want make raspberry filled cupcakes with the Solo brand filling. I know that I can cut a cone out, fill and then cover them. I need to make a lot and I would rather not do all of that extra work. I was planning on piping batter into the liners, then some filling, then the rest of the batter. My question is whether or not the filling would cause any problems, or if the cupcakes would turn out weird. I have read a little about fillings that cause too much steam and thus a problem with the cake. Does anyone have experience with this? I greatly appreciate your advice.

For a fifth time you all have provided us with a degree of closure regarding the loss of a beloved pet. Nick's rendition of Murphy in oil is stunning, that look was one Murphy gave me many times. Everything about the painting is beautiful, Murphy's color, his look, the framing. We really like the convex framing. I hope you both know that coming to you on five different occasions is a testament to what Barb and I think of you both as artists. I do not believe any amount of money can improve on what you all have done for us. With love, gratitude and best wishes always, Gary and Barbara

Microsoft's Former CTO Takes On Modernist Cuisine
- |
- 12:00 pm |
- Permalink
Modernist Cuisine started with a problem.
In 2003, Myhrvold was building his dream house on the shore of Lake Washington outside Seattle, stocking it with esoteric kitchen equipment. One of the toys was a temperature-controlled water bath used for a technique known as sous vide, vacuum-sealing food in plastic bags and cooking it for a long time at relatively low temperatures. Done correctly, it lets a chef precisely control the temperature of the food, so the final product comes out perfect every time.
Myhrvold had come across the technique while studying cooking in France, but he needed information on how long to cook various foods and at what temperature.
And that was the problem. There wasn't any information.
For Myhrvold, that's not acceptable. He's a creature of knowledge; talking to him is like taking a graduate seminar. Actually, it's like taking every graduate seminar at once. He bounces from topic to topic as if someone were clicking the remote control through 500 channels of really high-end BBC documentaries. Here's a lunchtime conversation, only slightly edited:
"Alaska has had more than 10 times the number of botulism cases of New York state. But its population is a few percent of New York state. It's because they eat a lot of crap up there… The most thermally diffusive thing that heat travels fastest in is diamond, by a big margin… Suppose you have a broiler with a bunch of separate rods. Turns out there's an optimal distance away from them to have the most even heat. And it's 44 percent of the distance between them, plus 5 millimeters… The big innovation in the 20th century wasn't in high-end food, it was in industrial food… Our Carolina barbecue sauces are very thin. We made them authentic thickness. But then we have a note that says 0.2 percent xanthan gum will give you something that clings to your meat and makes your shirt less dirty. Ba dum ba dum ba dum."
That's how Myhrvold cuts off a lot of his own sentences, with what sounds like a kettledrum sound effect for a cartoon somersault. It's not an ellipsis; it's more like his brain has accelerated past the rest of the information. The proof is left as an exercise for the student.
After finding only a couple of articles and one book (in Spanish) about sous vide, Myhrvold posted a message on the high-end culinary discussion forum eGullet asking for sources, recipes, anything. "I sort of naively thought that sous vide was well understood," Myhrvold says. "You heard about people using it, so I figured they clearly must understand it. Well, I discovered that they didn't."
He was no stranger to kitchens. Growing up in Santa Monica, California, with his mother, a model and schoolteacher, Myhrvold started cooking at an early age, checking out cookbooks from the library and preparing elaborate Thanksgiving meals when he was 9. While at Microsoft, he moonlighted in the kitchen of a leading French restaurant in Seattle for nearly two years.
But he's primarily a scientist. Myhrvold has a master's degree in geophysics and space physics and another one in mathematical economics. He got his PhD in theoretical and mathematical physics from Princeton at 23 and did a postdoctoral fellowship with Stephen Hawking at Cambridge. He started a software company that Microsoft bought in 1986, founded Microsoft Research in 1991, and left the company as its CTO and chief strategist in 1999. He has hundreds of patents issued or pending. Oh, and he's also a photographer, a patron of paleontology research, and a world-champion barbecue chef. Seriously.
So Myhrvold the cook and Myhrvold the scientist went to work. Chicken and salmon and beef all got sous vided, with temperature probes inserted so Myhrvold could track how the heat moved through the food. He wrote a program using Mathematica to model the heat transfer through various shapes and sizes of food without actually having to cook. "I got kind of carried away," he says.
Almost a year and a half after asking his question on eGullet, Myhrvold answered it himself, posting the results of his experiments—charts that showed how long and at what temperature to cook a certain piece of food to get to a desired final temperature. Instantly, the thread became the definitive reference to sous vide.
By the time someone online suggested that he write a book based on the information, Myhrvold had already moved on to looking at food safety concerns raised by the low temperatures used in sous vide. He was even helping chefs convince food inspectors that the technique was safe. "From there I sort of decided, hey, why not do the whole thing?" Myhrvold says. "It made sense at the time."
The Intellectual Ventures lab, hard by a tennis practice facility and an auto-repair shop on the outskirts of Bellevue, Washington, isn't just easy to miss—it's almost as though it was scientifically designed to look as nondescript as possible. Inside the former Harley-Davidson garage, though, is 27,500 square feet of thinking space—as much a physical manifestation of Myhrvold's polymath mind as the cookbook is a literary and photographic one. Just inside the front door are the wet chemistry lab, the physics lab, the repair shop, and the laser testing rooms. A space farther back and to the right is crammed with computer-controlled milling machines that carve objects from metal or plastic with millimeter precision and a giant water-jet cutting table. It's hundreds of thousands of bucks worth of gear—a factory for fabricating anything a scientist might need.
Inside, dozens of PhDs work on a bevy of projects. One group is trying to perfect an idea that scientists have been hammering on since the 1950s—a traveling-wave nuclear reactor. It could, in theory, run for 50 to 100 years without needing to be refueled, primarily on uranium 238, which is a cheap, non-weaponizable byproduct of the uranium-enrichment process. The TerraPower project, as it's called, should yield a prototype reactor by 2020.
Then there's the Salter Sink, which is supposed to lessen the impact of hurricanes by funneling warm water from the ocean's surface into the colder water below. And there's the solution that the company has proposed to slow global warming: Pump sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere to mirror the cooling effect caused by large volcanic eruptions. Al Gore told the authors of SuperFreakonomics that the plan was "nuts," but that's of little consequence to Myhrvold; several Nobel laureates agree with him that the sulfur scheme might work.

text: Well done Tondo. It is nice to see someone actually stand up against doping instead of turning the other way or participating. The report is that over 12,000 doses of doping substances were seized and that the EPO originated from a hospital in Barcelona. Amongst the substances there was not only EPO but also Clenbuterol, growth hormones, nandrolone and steroids. I wonder what the peleton's reaction will be to Tondo's action? Will they publicly support him but privately say elsewise?
