I was in NYC last week for RWA and while my friends visited Liberty Island and Central Park, New York was all about the eating for me. *pokes squishy middle* As a result, this week's Show and Tell Wednesday features a bit of food tourism: Momofuku Milk Bar's Bake the Cake class.
I've had Milk Bar on the brain from watching Masterchef. Pastry chef and Milk Bar founder, Christina Tosi, is the new guest judge on there. When I found out that Milk Bar was within walking distance of the Marriott, I decided to make a field trip of it.
As I was doing reconnaissance, I discovered there were cake baking classes RWA weekend. Sign me up! Oh, wait….the classes were in Brooklyn, not in Manhattan. Oh well, nothing a cab ride couldn't fix.
I was able to talk the author of the Amour et Chocolat series, Laura Florand, to venture out with me. She, in turn, convinced food and book blogger Elisabeth Lane. It was a party!
In case you aren't familiar with Laura Florand's books, there's one on sale currently on Amazon:
We arrived a little early, ready to bake:
Once inside, I was a little disappointed to see the cake was already made. I suppose it made sense. Two hours wasn't enough time to bake a cake from scratch and also decorate it. (But they do it on Masterchef all the time!)
That's okay, I wasn't bummed for long. I got this fashionable head scarf for starters.
They provided us all of the ingredients pre-made: chocolate malt crumble, frosting, charred marshmallows.
Our job was just to assemble. I learned some great techniques. Apparently I'd been doing it wrong using cake rounds to bake circular cakes. The horror! With cake rounds, the outside edges are always more baked than the center. On top of that, the shape is never quite round or level.
In the class, we used a circular cutter to create perfect rounds which we then stacked with a layer of frosting, crumble, marshmallow and fudge drizzle between each round.
And the bendy spoon for spreading frosting was pretty cool too.
Here's the finished product!
What was I going to do with a decadent three layer chocolate malt cake?
With a couple of spoons and a laptop, we had RITA night all set. Do you know what's better than watching the RITA ceremony live? Watching it live while wearing your pajamas and eating chocolate cake. With a plastic spoon.
Life is good.
Have you had any interesting foodie vacations? Do tell!
Show and Tell is a weekly feature on the Ruby Slipper blog. Contact Jeannie Lin if you're interested in doing a guest spot.

So you went to the RWA conference (or another) and met up with your amazing writer friends. You pitched to your favorite editor who seemed enthralled with your book, nearly begging you to send it to her.

Data capture and multiprocessing board uses Virtex-5 SX95T
May 20, 2010 // Colin Holland
Sundance Digital Signal Processing Inc., is using a Virtex-5 SX95T FPGA on the DSP464, the latest addition to its family of high performance ADC/DAC hardware solutions.
Designed for use in PMC/ XMC form factors, the DSP464 delivers multiprocessor capture and processing capabilities for single unit installation or cascade deployment in heterogeneous networks.
Optimized for wideband, low noise, signal processing applications the DSP464's PCIe, PCI-X and Serial RapidIO interfaces allow the transfer of high bandwidth data to host systems.
It can be used across an array of carriers and platforms including VME, cPCI and Advanced TCA (ATCA) and application design is supported by PARS (Parallel Application from Rapid Simulation) that enables designers to generate system target code, including DSP codes, FPGA codes and all of the inter-processor communication and synchronization codes from a Simulink model.
To enable RF/IF rate pre-processing the DSP464 features Virtex-5 SX95T FPGA optimized for high performance DSP that includes 640 Xilinx XtremeDSP slices capable of delivering up to 352 GMACs. The FPGA can be custom programmed and reconfigured in the field using PARS and is also supported by a wide range of logic cores, filters and blocks.
To support high frequency digitization and wide dynamic range, Sundance DSP selected four channels of Linear Technology's 130Msps, sampling 16-bit high-resolution multi-channel capture ADC that is capable of interleaved acquisition of 1 channel at 520 MS/s.
Optimized for gigahertz-plus communications processing performance and high-speed connectivity Freescale's PowerQUICC III processor drives the primary XMC and has access to 512MB of DDR2 memory.
By implementing a flexible clock distribution circuit based on Analog Device's AD9510 the DSP464 offers a system-wide synchronized clock, phase adjustment of the ADC and output clocks, and dual-channel quadrature sampling. On-board clock synthesis is based on the AD9540 Low-Jitter DDS synthesizer and coupled with a temperature-compensated reference oscillator, the clock generation is able to provide sub-Hz frequency resolution down to 10Hz accuracy.
DSP464 is targeted at the enterprise networking, telecom transmission and switching, 3G wireless infrastructure, storage and high-end imaging markets.

Ben Sheets probably isn't going anywhere
Jul 22, 2010, 5:12 PM EDT
The smart thinking is that the A's signed Ben Sheets with the idea of flipping him for prospects in the fairly likely event that they failed to catch lightning in a bottle and challenged for the division. Those plans aren't exactly working, however.
Ken Rosenthal reports that the Athletics are now thinking they'll just hold on to Sheets. That may be because Buster Oleny reports that other teams are worried about his decrease in velocity and don't see him as anything close to a sure thing. Oh, and Jayson Stark says that suitors — as the Phillies were reported to be yesterday — want the A's to pick up salary, which sort of defeats the whole purpose from their perspective.
So in the words of my favorite musician: Clouds so swift/Rain won't lift/Gate won't close/Railings froze/Get your mind off wintertime/You ain't goin' nowhere, Ben Sheets.
Well, Dylan didn't include the "Ben Sheets" part.
- APBA Guy - Jul 22, 2010 at 6:42 PM
The velocity decrease is real, and pitching in Oakland doesn't mask it, even if it helps his recent ERA.
Still, he's made enough strides over the season that he would absolutely help teams who need a 5th starter for the last two months, at a reasonable cost, as his command has improved greatly and his velocity isn't terrible, just not dominating.

Manners in the Moral Life
Nancy Sherman on the Look and Feel of Virtue
WASHINGTON, D.C., JAN. 18, 2005 (Zenit) - What we do, how we do it and how we appear to others, often make an ethical difference, says a scholar in the field of ethics.
Nancy Sherman, author of the forthcoming "Stoic Warriors: The Ancient Philosophy Behind the Military Mind" (Oxford University Press), is a philosophy professor at Georgetown University and the inaugural holder of the visiting Distinguished Chair of Ethics at the U.S. Naval Academy
She shared with us how an "aesthetic of character" affects us, and how acting with good manners helps us grow in the life of virtue.
Q: What is the look and feel of virtue?
Sherman: By referring to "the look and feel of virtue," I am trying to capture the idea of the "aesthetic of character." Basically, I mean how we appear to others as conveyed through formal manners and decorum, as well as through manner in the wider sense of personal bearing and interpersonal attitude.
The latter can be a matter of looks and gesture, tone of voice and posture, facial expression, or more generally, overall emotional and physical comportment. The way we comport ourselves is often an important ingredient in formal manners, as in expressing politeness by looking a person in the eye when we greet them hello or showing gratitude through a smile.
I would say formal manners and more general comportment are part of how we convey socially sensitive behavior. Thus, it is not just what we do but how we do it and how we appear to others that often ethically matters.
Q: Why do manners matter?
Sherman: I became interested in manners during my stint as chair in ethics at the United States Naval Academy. The first time I entered the Academy gates what caught my eye -- indeed what catches the eye of any outsider -- is the attention paid to manners and decorum.
"Honor, courage and commitment" may be written on Academy walls, replacing Harvard's "Veritas." But written on the faces and bodies of the midshipmen is not just a commitment to character, but a commitment to an aesthetic of character. Indeed, the world of the military takes seriously the inner stuff of character, but also its appearance.
At the mealtime formation, visitors line up to see a brigade of crisply pressed uniforms and straight bodies. Officers and midshipmen greet civilians with a "sir" or "ma'am," locked eye gaze and firm handshake. Hair is in place and uniforms are impeccable; Marine shirts have creases like no civilian dress shirt has ever seen.
But it is not just a trim and neat uniform that conveys good conduct in the midshipman. It is the overall demeanor and bearing that the visitor notices -- a sense of politeness and respect, an air of helpfulness and civility.
As I saw this in these young officers in training, I asked myself how important some aspect of external bearing is in nonmilitary life. My answer was that it had a role that philosophers, in particular, often feel hesitant to defend.
And yet, as parents, we often insist on training our children to look others in the eye when saying hello or thank you, or to look "presentable" when going out with company, etc. We count on certain facial and bodily gestures to be part of the full package of morally good conduct. And we praise and blame accordingly.
In this sense, the outer stuff of virtue is, at times, continuous with expectations for inner character -- I wanted to write about that continuum. I found a fascinating discussion in Seneca's "On Doing Kindnesses" -- "De Beneficiis" -- and I explore that in my account.
Q: Do external conventions help cultivate authentic virtues or do they simply mask hypocrisy?
Sherman: You raise an important objection against manners -- namely that they condone, and even encourage, inauthenticity. Favors done gruffly may offend, but a veneer of politeness that masks meanness can be just as offensive in its deceit. Moreover, a false-self can alienate others, but also oneself.
But I think the charge of hypocrisy is typically overdone; I argue against the charge in several ways.
First, while the demand to fully bear one's soul may be on some occasions appropriate, to know when it is not, is itself a sign of moral sensitivity. To know when to hold back, to know when polite behavior counts for something and full disclosure for less, seems altogether a morally good thing.
Moreover, "posed" facial expressions -- or we might say, "faking it" -- may please others and express respect as well as function as self-exhortations. They are a way of coaxing along a corresponding inner change. We nurse a change from the outside in, as it were.
Current research on facial feedback mechanisms lends some support to the idea. ...

Denver Broncos Establish Themselves as Clear AFC Favorites in Win Over Kansas City Chiefs
Sunday night, the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs squared off in this year's most anticipated matchup yet. The league's number one offense took on the number one defense. Could it get any better for a football fan? Absolutely not.
I'm not going to give you a recap, here. What I am going to say, though, is that by game's end we knew exactly what AFC team is in a league of their own. The Broncos simply outplayed the Chiefs in every aspect Sunday night and established themselves as the favorite in the conference.
Remember, this is a Chiefs team that was only giving up 12 points per game on defense. This is a defense that featured two guys, coming in, that had averaged at least a sack per game this year. Justin Houston and Tamba Hali have been the best pass-rushing duo in the league, and it's not even close.
Peyton Manning and the Broncos offense didn't batter the Chiefs defense. They just won convincingly. Manning didn't have to go on any record-breaking rampage and toss another seven touchdowns or throw for 500 yards. He was simply efficient. He didn't throw an interception, although did lose a fumble. But in the end he was, well, his typical Manning self.
What Denver can do both offensively and defensively, as proven in this latest win, is unmatched throughout the rest of the AFC. As a complete roster, these Broncos are clear cut favorites in the conference. Offensively, I don't even need to give you an argument. Defensively, these guys get after the quarterback, have an aggressive secondary and for the most part they can stop the run.
With the final third of the season about to get under way, the Broncos look like there is nothing stopping them from obtaining that number one seed and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. The only big test for the remainder of the season, outside another game against Kansas City, is next week's showdown with the New England Patriots.
We'll see how I feel next week after the Broncos take on the Patriots, but I genuinely don't believe the Patriots' defense is good enough to hold Manning under 30 points. Can Tom Brady outscore Denver with an inconsistent offense? That will be quite the fight next week and we're going to find out.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
y 1962 c. E. HEWSON 3,034,501
INFLATABLE HEART MASSAGER Filed Aug. 5, 1958 INVENTOR. CARL HE S BY F75 3 EZEK/EL. W I Wou: I -Grumman 4-15 WRN 'YS United States Patent 3,034,501 INFLATABLE HEART MASSAGER Carl E. Hewson, Marshfield, Mass. (90 Myrtle St., Quincy, Mass.) Filed Aug. 5, 1958, Ser. No. 753,240 4 Claims. (Cl. 128-39) The present invention relates to a heart massager or bag adapted to fit about a human heart during surgical procedure for automatic massaging of the heart.
It is quite common during surgical operations for surgeons to massage the patients heart in order to stimulate it to normal operation. Often however, this massaging must be carried on for relatively long periods of time. Since a surgeon can normally only massage a heart for a period of approximately three minutes, without tiring, it is often necessary for a team of surgeons to hand-massage a heart over prolonged periods. The difficulty with this particularly procedure is that successive handling of the heart by different individuals is deleterious to its proper operation. Furthermore, it makes the maintaining of a uniform and rhythmic pulsating pressure rather diflicult to maintain. Furthermore, this type of procedure does not lend itself to a precisely controlled rhythmic application of pulsating pressures to the heart.
it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a device adapted to be fitted on a human heart during surgical operation for applying a rhythmic pulsating pressure to the heart suflicient and in such a manner as to keep the heart pumping and therefore maintain blood pressure and circulation artificially until the heart is able to assume its normal function. V 1
The present invention also provides the heart massaging device which is adapted to fit over a wide range of different sized hearts and in which the device is easily inserted over the heart during surgical operative pro-' cedures.
The device also provides gentle uniform pressure to the heart in a manner carefully predetermined and controlled.
The present invention also contemplates modifications for applying rhythmic pulsating pressure to the heart with the pressure being applied to difierent portions of the heart in successive instants of time.
The present invention is also designed to be autoclavable so that it may be reused.
These and other objects and advantages of the present invention will be more clearly understood when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective View of a preferred form of the invention;
FIGURE 2 is a cross sectional view taken substantially along the line 2-2 of FIGURE 1; and,
FIGURE 3 is a perspective View of a modification of the invention.
This massager is preferably entirely made of a flexible distendable resilient auto-clavable material which is nonreactive with the internal organs of the body. A number of suitable materials are presently marketed including certain of the commercially available synthetic plastic materials. Of particular utility is a silicon elastic material commercially sold under the trademark Silastic and manufactured by the Dow Corning Chemical Co. This material is shaped into a bag-like form generally illustrated in FIGURE 1. The bag is formed with inner and outer walls 1 and 2 respectively, with the inner and outer walls joined at their upper peripheral edges 3 by any suitable permanent sealing means. A slot is also formed at 4 end extends substantially vertically with respect to the walls 1 and 2. The edges of the walls 1 and 2 are secured together at this slot 4, as indicated at 5 and 6.
3,034,501 Patented May 1 5, 1962 A tube 7 is formed at the base or vertex of the outer wall 2. By this ararngement there is provided an inner enclosed space 8 between two walls 1 and 2, with fluid or air inlet means through the tube 7.
The shape of this bag and substantially the shape of the inner and outer walls are goblet-like in cross section. Ultimately they may be considered as substantial paraboloids. Attention is directed to the fact that the upper portions of the walls 1 and 2 are bowed slightly inwardly at 10 and 11, about their circumference, so that the interior area of the bag as indicated at 12 has a slightly constricted upper opening. This constriction is somewhat more pronounced when the bag is in use, so that the tendency of the bag to slip from the heart will be minimized by the gripping action of this slightly constricted plied through the opening '7 to the interior 8, the inner wall 1 will be forced inwardly towards the center, thereby providing a squeezing action on the heart which is positioned within the area 12. The relative thicknesses of the inner and outer walls may vary depending upon the particular material used. If desired the outer wall 2 may be provided with an integrally molded or otherwise suitably secured flexible, auto-clavable cloth or woven metal insert which would prevent the outer Wall from distending to any substanutial extent. Satisfactory for such rigidizing member would be a monofilarnent nylon cloth arranged in strips or if desired a single piece about the outer wall 2. Preferably, however the device contemplates the inner and outer wall of the same material only with the outer wall of greater thickness.
The particular shape illustrated is useful for hearts of different sizes. Thus the slot 4 permits easy insertion of a heart Within the area 12 and the subsequent securing of the bag about the heart. The bag may be readily secured particularly for smaller hearts, by surgical clamps applied to the lips 5 and 6. Thus in one particular modification, a bag having approximately a five inch diameter and a length of approximately six inches, has been found satisfactory. The length of the slot 4 should extend preferably almost the height of the walls 1 and 2 so that the bag may be distended and bent for easy insertion of the heart within it.
In the operation of this device, the outlet tube 7 is connected to a suitable hydraulic or pneumatic pressure means which is adapted to apply a rhythmic pulsating pressure to the interior 8 of the bag. The pressure which is alternately applied and released to this interior distends the Walls of the bag. Since the inner wall may be distended more readily than the outer wall, upon the application of a pulse of pressure, it will distend and gently squeeze the heart as described. The normal pressure which is applied to the inlet tube 7 may vary depending upon the particular bag, material, patient and other variables. However, a typical pressure would be for example 15 psi. The pressure would be applied in pulses at a variable rate also depending upon the situation. Normally however, 60 to pulses would be applied per minute.
Occasionally, it is desirable to apply pressure in a controlled manner. For example, it might be desirable to apply the squeezing pressure to the lower portion of the heart first, and then subsequently to the upper portion of the heart. This may be provided for in the arrangement as generally disclosed in FIGURE 1, by carefully varying the thickness of the inner wall. Thus for example, if the inner wall is made thinner at its apex 14, than at its upper area or edge 10, with a gradual or selected variation in the thickness between these two areas, the inner wall would distend and thereby apply pressure to the lower portion of the heart first and then subsequently to the upper portion of the heart. Thus by varying the thickness of the inner wall in any particularly desired area, the sequence in which the pressure is applied is controlled.
Another means of controlling the application of pressure for sequential applications of pressure to various portions, is illustrated in FIGURE 3. Here a bag of generally the same configuration as shown in FIGURE 1 is pro-,
vided having inner and outer walls 2 and 21 respectively. In this modification however, the inlet means for introducing pressure between the walls 26 and 21, is provided by a pair of inlet tubes 22 and 23. These inlet tubes may conveniently be located at the upper edge 24 of the bag, at positions adjacent the slot 25. The slot 25 extends downwardly substantially the height of the bag. The interior of the bag between the walls 20 and 21, is divided in two by, '21 preferably, integrally molded divider 26 which extends from the upper edge 24 to the apex 28 at the side opposite the slot 25 and continues upwardly to the lowermost point of the slot 25, thereby eifectively dividing the interior of the bag between the walls 20 and 21 into two separate compartments each having a separate air inlet. In this arrangement each separate 'air inlet may be connected to a pneumatic or hydraulic device for separately controlled introduction of pressures into the separate chambers.
. Itwill be noted that this device may alsobe used in conjunction with a sensing instrument which is sensitive to the arterial pressure of the patient. In this manner the pressure or amount of squeeze on the heart may be automatically controlled for the maintaining of a selected and established arterial pressure. v Having described my invention, I claim:
1. A heart massaging device formed of flexible material comprising a bag-like member having a globlet-like shape, open at the wide end and having a slot extending from said Wide end toward the vertex of said shape, said member formed of inner and outer walls joined together at their periphery including said wide end and slot and forming therebetween an enclosing space, said outer wall having a thickness substantially greater than said inner wall whereby said inner wall will distend on application of pressure to said space at a greater rate than said outer wall, and inlet means positioned at the vertex of said shape for introducing pulsating pressure into said space.
2. A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein said inner wall has a different thickness in different portions of said inner wall whereby the thinner portions will distend at a rate greater than the thicker portion on application of pressure into said space.
3. A heart massaging device formed of a flexible material comprising a bag-like member having a goblet-like shape, open at the wide end and having a slot extending from said wide end longitudinally toward the vertex of said shape, said member formed of inner and outer walls joined together at their periphery including said Wide end and said slot and forming therebetween an enclosing space, said inner and outer Walls flared outwardly and lying in face to face relation at said slot and forming thereby an outwardly extending lip about the periphery of said slot, said outer wall having a thickness substantially greater than said inner wall whereby said inner wall will distend on application of pressure to said space at a greater rate than said outer wall and inlet means positioned at the vertex of said shape for introducing pulsating pressure into said space.
4. A device set forth in claim 1 wherein the peripheries of said outer and inner walls at said wide end are bowed slightly inwardly to form a construction at said wide end.

Looks like Coney Island won't be back to its normal boardwalk-packed self until next spring; Brooklyn Paper reports that the original, iconic Nathan's Famous won't be reopening until this spring, as rebuilding efforts continue post-Hurricane Sandy.
The storm that hit the New York coast last month forced Nathan's Famous to close their original location on Surf Avenue for the first time in 96 years, the company reportedly says.
"Nathan's has begun the process of rebuilding and anticipates reopening this spring, before the summer season," a spokesman for the company told Brooklyn Paper, as much of the equipment ended up underwater as the Boardwalk flooded. Tradition lovers and competitive-eating enthusiasts need not fear, however; Nathan's Famous International Hot Dog Eating Championship, held every year on July 4 on the corner of Surf Avenue and Stillwell Avenue is still on, officials say. Our nation's tradition of stuffing our faces with hot dogs will continue.

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's media regulator said on Monday it had launched an investigation into Sky News, the influential news channel of Rupert Murdoch's BSkyB, which has admitted twice hacking into emails to generate a story.
Sky News said earlier this month that it had hacked into emails in 2008 but insisted it had acted in the public interest because it had shared the information with the police and helped to secure a criminal conviction.
The admission was seen as damaging to the successful channel. Its parent BSkyB is 39 percent-owned by Murdoch's News Corp, which has itself been convulsed by a phone hacking scandal at its British newspaper arm.
As a result, parent company BSkyB is being investigated as to whether its owners and directors are fit to own a broadcast license.
"Ofcom is investigating the fairness and privacy issues raised by Sky News' statement that it had accessed without prior authorization private email accounts during the course of its news investigations," a spokesman said.
"We will make the outcome known in due course."

ACLU Chooses Liberal Agenda Over Constitution
No one should be surprised in the least at the activities of the supposed American Civil Liberties Union, they've exposed their far left agenda long ago. Sure, every once in a while they'll actually work to protect the Constitution, but, notice that their name is not based on the Constitution: civil liberties are whatever they say they are, despite claiming that they are there to protect the Constitution. That's why they so often go missing when the Constitution is on the line, when people's Rights, as laid out in the Bill of Rights, are under assault. Much like most of the US media, they are no longer showing a bias, but are actual cheerleaders and advocates for the Democrat Party. Witness
A Victory for Women: Employer Can't Use Its Religion to Deny Birth Control Coverage for Its Employees
On Friday, a district court in Missouri rejected a case brought by a mining company challenging the federal birth control rule that requires employer health plans to cover contraception without a co-pay. The Missouri case is one of 30 pending, and it is the first case to be dismissed on the merits. It's a tremendous victory for women, particularly those employed by the mining company.
It's a tremendous loss for Freedom of Religion, yet the ACLU isn't too concerned about that. They've voluntarily abdicated their role as so-called protector of the Constitution in order to push an agenda.
The court decisively rejected the claim that the birth control rule infringes on the mining company owner's religious beliefs. The court found that the rule does not prevent the company's owner "from keeping the Sabbath, from providing a religious upbringing for his children, or from participating in a religious ritual such as communion." Those religious practices are different from contributing to a health plan that an employee might use to obtain contraception. This "indirect financial support" of someone else's possible behavior is not a burden on the company owner's religious beliefs.
Importantly, the court also recognized that religious liberty claims cannot be used as a "means to force one's religious practices upon others." That is exactly what the company's owner was trying to do. We are pleased that the court rejected an attempt to use religion to discriminate, and we hope that the courts in the other cases do so as well.
Whew, that's an incredible way to spin the topic. What of those who want their health insurance to have a $0 copay for contraception, sterilization, and abortifacients? Is that not pushing their religious views on others?
And what of the notion that this was a federal government mandate that requires employers to provide insurance with $0 copays for contraception, sterilization, and abortifacients? Is that not the federal government forcing their religious views on The People in violation of the 1st Amendment?

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
30 Mar 2013 11:17 GMT | Sport, Tennis
Former winner Andy Murray and third seed David Ferrer will meet in the final of the Miami Masters after both rallied from opening set losses Friday to win their semi-finals in three sets.
Last year's runner-up Murray lost the opening set in a tiebreaker before beating Frenchman Richard Gasquet 6-7 (3/7), 6-1, 6-2 while Spaniard Ferrer ended German veteran Tommy Haas's giant-killing run 4-6, 6-2, 6-3.
"I could have made it easier on myself," Murray said.
"I could have played a better game when I was serving for the first set, but I didn't. I responded well and obviously he struggled in the third set with his movement. I just had to take care of my own side of the net. I did a good job of that."
Dominating performanceMurray, the 2009 champion, dropped his first set of the tournament by losing the opening-set tiebreak to eighth seed Gasquet, but quickly made amends and dominated the final two sets to reach his third Miami final.
Murray, who is the lone British champion in the history of the Miami event, has beaten Ferrer in six out of 11 career matches, winning five of the last seven.
Ferrer has only beaten Murray once on a non-clay surface and that was at the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals in 2011.
"It is going to be a tough match. He is an unbelievable competitor," Murray said. "We train a lot together so we know each other's games well so there should be a lot of long rallies."
The 26-year-old Scot clinched the win when a frustrated Gasquet hammered a return of serve on his forehand into the bottom of the net on the first of two match points.
Murray finished with six aces and won 75 per cent of his first-serve points in a centre court match that ended just one minute shy of being two hours long.
Murray started slowly, struggling with his serve at times as he double faulted five times in the match, including three times in the opening set.
Gasquet, who has won twice already this year but was hampered by a right foot problem in this one, was trying to become the first Frenchman to capture the Miami title.
Murray later said he was pleased at his recovery after the disappointment of losing the first set.
"The first set was a tough one to lose," Murray said. "I hit over 20 winners and lost the set.
"So I realised I had to cut out the unforced errors. I did a good job of that. Halfway through the second set I started to find the right way to play."
Gasquet received treatment from the trainer during the break between the second and third set for a problem with his right ankle.
"I had an ankle problem already from Indian Wells," Gasquet said.
Murray smacked a superb running cross-court forehand winner to reach match point in the eighth game of the final set.
That set up a double match point and Murray wasted no time winning it on his first serve.
Determined win
A determined Ferrer twice rallied from a break down in the third set to end the giant-killing run of 15th-seeded Haas, who stunned world No. 1 Novak Djokovic in the fourth round.
"I am in the final and I am very happy for that," Ferrer said.
"I will try to do my best to win Sunday."
The first semi-final of the day was a clash of veterans looking for early birthday presents. Haas turns 35 on Wednesday and Ferrer is approaching his 31st birthday on Tuesday.
Haas had backed up his upset of Djokovic with a quarter-final win over Gilles Simon, and he got off to a fast start against Ferrer.
The Spaniard looked out of sorts as Haas broke him at love for a 3-2 lead in the opening set, and the German broke him again for a 5-2 lead. Ferrer managed to cut down on his errors in the second set, breaking Haas twice to force a deciding third set.Ferrer said his service game will be the key against Murray on Sunday.
"I will have to do everything good," he said. "I will have to improve my first serve, to play obviously with my forehand sure for to beat him."
