CNNMoney Supports Absurd Alternative Energy Funding Demands
CNNMoney mustn't pay very well, because writer Steve Hargreaves is moonlighting as a PR flack for the International Energy Agency. At least, that's the impression given by his June 12 article on the IEA's 700-page "sharply-worded" report that called for an additional $36 trillion of clean energy investment by 2050.
According to Hargreaves, IEA Executive Director Maria van der Hoeven doesn't think governments are doing enough to keep global warming in check. "Our ongoing failure to realize the full potential of clean energy technology is alarming," she said. "Under current policies, both energy demand and emissions are likely to double by 2050."
Hargreaves parroted the report's claims, explaining that renewable energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal are free. He noted that the savings would far outweigh the cost at some point, and work out to $130 per person each year.
The report also asserted that our current habits could have catastrophic consequences. "Continued heavy reliance on a narrow set of technologies and fossil fuels is a significant threat to energy security, stable economic growth and global welfare, as well as to the environment." it said.
There were no critiques of these claims, however, or even an acknowledgement that the science behind them is disputed. Hargreaves did allow that there were "naysayers who think renewable technology cannot be scaled up to produce the magnitude of energy the world demands."
Those "naysayers" increasingly have experience on their side, The Obama Administration invested billions in at least a dozen green energy companies that declared bankruptcy or continued to suffer serious financial issues. Mainstream media outlets neglected to mention them all; Solyndra was more than enough of a scandal.

The Sisters Stampede is an XC mountain bike race sanctioned by the Oregon Bicycle Racing Assosiation (OBRA). It was spawned from the inception of a new, revised network of trails in the Sisters, Oregon area called the Peterson Ridge trail. The trails were built by the Sisters Trail Alliance, who are passionate about making this beautiful area accesible to cyclists, runners, and hikers.
This thrilling race course features stunning views of the Three Sisters Mountains, and rolling singletrack scattered with Central Oregon lava rock. This course is mainly singletrack which will test riders' strength and stamina
A very unique start/finish will be located just steps away from Three Creeks Brewing, which will be launching a "Ridge Trail" ale for the event and will host the after-race party. FivePine Lodge, which is on the same campus, will provide lodging. Camping is also available in the city park, just blocks from the start/finish line.
$1000 Cash prizes for top three Men and Women – either Pro or Expert. Other category winners will get a 21oz mug, custom tote bag and other great prizes from our sponsors. There will be a raffle after the awards.
Medical personnel will be at the Start and Finish to treat minor scrapes and bruises, as well as an aid station on the course.
For more information:
We host a special guest lecturer and quilts on display among the pines at FivePine Lodge & Conference Center during Save it for Sunday.

Runs on Dunkin.
Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut is the latest Democratic senator to come out for a potential Hillary Clinton presidential candidacy.
Blumenthal will make a "special announcement" at a June 6 fundraiser for the super PAC Ready for Hillary in Westport, Conn., according to an invitation obtained by National Journal. Harold Ickes, a Bill Clinton White House aide who is now a senior adviser to Ready for Hillary, will also give an "important update." The event will be held at the home of Democratic donors Bill Scheffler and Ann Sheffer.
Tickets start at $201.60 (a nod to the year 2016) for the "sponsor" level and go up to $1,000 for the "cohost" level. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) (Richard A. Bloom)
Blumenthal joins Democratic Sens. Debbie Stabenow, Barbara Boxer and Dick Durbin, who announced their support for Clinton earlier this week, and Sen. Tim Kaine, who threw his support behind Clinton earlier this month. Several other Democratic leaders have urged Clinton to run.
"Across the country, Democratic leaders are stepping forward to help build a grassroots army of Hillary supporters encouraging Hillary to run," Ready for Hillary spokesman Seth Bringman said. "Like millions of everyday Americans, these Democratic leaders want Hillary to run and become the next president, and they are eager to do whatever they can to make it happen."
Blumenthal's office confirmed the event, but it could not immediately comment on the announcement.
Blumenthal and Clinton were classmates in law school and recently spent some time together during the former secretary of State's speech last month at the University of Connecticut.

Bummer...didn't work for Thanksgiving.
I used this for a 16lb turkey and it never did ""pop"". Luckily, I had my usual timing down, but I'll try it on a smaller chicken or breast only

This fun little thermometer / timer thing worked really well. I'm not 100% sure what temp the legs popped up at, but after resting the turkey for 45 minutes, it was juicy, and most importantly, cooked through. Dishwasher safe is just a bonus. You never know what your guests will put in there if they are helping clean up.

It seems that both Babsrocket and Jaci3 are both dealing with the 3.5L models. I myself have the 2.7L, and am dealing with a Tie rod issue.
as i took my tire off to inspect it, i found that the where the grease was stored, it was bone dry and had about 1/2 inch play.
mith this play in the Tie Rod ends, the car shimmies and is not fun to drive.
knowing that Jaci3 had one break off, i am leaving mine parked and am going to Dodge for answers.
please if any of you have been through the phone calls and e-mail game with them already, please give me some info as to what they said. good luck with your issues.
Hi Jaci3.
I am so glad to find your post.
I was doing some research on my Charger due to the same problem.
Fortunately, mine have not broken.
However, I agree with you that something MUST be done by Dodge about this issue with the tie rods/suspension.
I have a 2006 Charger with 38,600 and was just told that I have tie rod and suspension issues for the THIRD time.
The right side was replaced while still under warranty.
The left side replaced about a year ago and now being told that the right side needs to be done AGAIN.
This is ridiculous.
Granted, my car is an '06 but I have low mileage for a 5 year old car.
I would like to now if you have contacted Dodge or if you have any other information that you could provide me, if you have made any progress.
I love my Charger but would not recommend this car because of this problem.

Life's Outtakes,The Year I Lived Christmas
The Year I Lived Christmas By Daris Howard It was Christmas Eve, and I was in New York, a long way from home. As we started our day, my associate, Mark, asked me what I had planned. "The main thing is the church Christmas social tonight," I replied. "How about we live the real Christmas story as told in Matthew 25 verse 40 before we go?" I knew the Christmas story wasn't there, but he had an unusual seriousness about him, so I agreed. "Good!" he said. "Get all of your spare ... Full Story

School Doctor
By seashore
- 2687 reads
I stand there dressed only in my regulation school knickers. I am shivering and ashamed as, although I am eleven years old, I still have no breasts. The lady doctor, who does have breasts and lots more wobbly bits besides, looms over me, peering in my throat, my eyes, my ears and writing things on her notepad. I am weighed and measured. She writes some more. She doesn't like me - I feel it in my ever-sensitive bladder. Does she know I still wet the bed? I am terrified she will find out. Finally she tells me I can put my clothes back on. She is writing again now on a fresh piece of paper. I want to know what she is writing. Am I deformed? Have I some terrible disease? Is there something wrong with my bladder? Will I need an operation? The fear builds. I don't like this woman - she has power. She tears off the sheet of paper, seals it quickly and hands it to me. Give that to your mother, she says without looking up. I sense I am dismissed.
On my way home I open the envelope. It isn't difficult as the sticky bit hasn't stuck very well. I read the letter. There's no mention of my bladder or lack of breasts. She has written: Your child is underweight and under-nourished, please ensure she drinks plenty of milk. I re-seal the letter and stuff it in my blazer pocket. Already I'm feeling the familiar ache in my bladder. Please God, I think, let me make it home before I wet myself.
The next day my mother tells me she has had a telephone call from the school doctor. She goes to the kitchen to boil my milk, pours it into a glass and hands it to me. The skin is already forming on top. In my mind my mother and the lady doctor merge into one. I hate milk, I hate my mother and I hate doctors. Looking at the milk I start to retch.

I thought it was very good.

General | Taxes | Eligibility | Distributions | Loans | Contributions | Investments
1. Do I have to pay taxes on the money I contribute to my 403(b) plan?
As long as you don't exceed the pretax limit, your contributions are deducted from your pay before federal income taxes are withheld. You don't pay federal income taxes on this money until you withdraw it from your account. However, you are required to pay Social Security tax on all 403(b) contributions.
As for state income tax, most states exempt 403(b) contributions from taxation; but depending on where you live, your contributions may be subject to local income taxes. Your company's human resources or benefits representative should be familiar with the laws in your area.
2. What is the tax advantage of saving for retirement in a 403(b) plan?
First, the money you put into the account reduces your taxable income for the year it's contributed.
Second, the earnings credited to your account grow tax-deferred. That's a powerful tool you can use to help build your retirement nest egg. For instance, suppose you had $1,000 invested in an after-tax investment account. That money earns $80 a year in interest, an 8 percent return. Let's suppose that your annual income is $50,000, putting you in the 28 percent tax bracket. You will have to pay taxes on your interest ($22), reducing your real return to $58.
Now, instead suppose you save $1,000 in your 403(b) plan and earn $80 in interest. Because contributions and earnings in 403(b) plans grow tax-deferred, the entire $80 is reinvested in your account, helping your investments grow faster.
However, when you withdraw money you are required to pay taxes. Your income in retirement may be lower than while you are working so your tax burden may be less.
3. What's the difference between taxable, tax-deferred and tax-free investing?
A taxable investment is one in which you pay taxes every year on the dividends, interest and appreciation of investments that you sell. A simple example of a taxable investment is a regular savings account. Every year when you file your tax return, you're required to report the interest your savings account has earned and pay taxes on it. Any time you buy a stock, bond, mutual fund, money market account, etc. that isn't part of a special tax-sheltered account (such as a 401(k), 403(b), IRA, etc.), it's most likely a taxable investment -- and you'll be required to pay taxes on its earnings every year.
A tax-deferred investment is one in which you do not have to pay taxes on the investment's earnings until you withdraw money from the account. Examples of tax-deferred investments include 401(k), 457 and 403(b) plans, and IRAs. In many cases, contributions you make to tax-deferred accounts are partially, if not completely, tax deductible. Because tax-deferred accounts are designed to help people save for specific goals -- such as retirement or a child's education -- there are hefty penalties attached to withdrawing your money from the account too soon.
A tax-free (or tax-exempt) investment is one in which you don't have to pay taxes on the income the investment earns. A municipal bond is an example of a tax-free investment. Note, however, that just because an investment is called "tax-free" does not mean that you won't have to pay any taxes on it. Some tax-free investments are exempt from only federal income taxes, while others may be exempt from only state or local taxes.
4. Aside from 403(b) plans, what are the different kinds of tax-deferred investment vehicles?
New tax laws in recent years have increased the number of tax-deferred retirement accounts available. Because of the various rules governing eligibility, you should consult a professional tax advisor when deciding which of the following options best suits your situation.
5. Will my Social Security benefits be affected by my 403(b) plan distributions?
Not necessarily. Having a 403(b) won't reduce your Social Security benefits -- but distributions from your 403(b) taken during retirement may make your Social Security benefits subject to federal income tax, especially if you have significant other income.
If you are concerned that retirement savings distributions might affect your Social Security benefits (or the taxation of those benefits), you should consult with your tax advisor, attorney or CPA regarding your own situation.
Further, money distributed from a 403(b) plan isn't subject to FICA withholding, regardless of whether the distributions come from salary reduction contributions or an employer's nonelective contributions.
6. Can I make after-tax contributions to my 403(b) plan?
Maybe. After-tax contributions are not permitted in custodial 403(b)(7) plans, and if made to an annuity, they count toward your maximum contribution.
Government rules don't actually outlaw after-tax contributions, but many employers no longer permit them.
7. Will I have to pay taxes on my 403(b) plan if I leave my employer?
That depends on what you decide to do with your money. You have several options:
8. If I make a catch-up contribution this year, what are the tax implications?
If you make a catch-up contribution, you'll have a higher contribution limit for that particular year. 403(b) participants may be able to take advantage of two types of catch-up contributions in the same year.
The 15-years-of-service catch-up contribution is available to workers who have completed at least 15 years of service with their current employer and have not taken full advantage of the 403(b) plan in previous years. This type of catch-up contribution is only open to employees of educational institutions, hospitals, home health service agencies, health and welfare agencies and certain church-sponsored agencies. The formula for calculating how much you may contribute under this limit is explained more fully in the question "What are catch-up contributions?"
If you are eligible for this catch up contribution, the maximum you may contribute in 2002 is $14,000 (the regular $11,000 limit plus $3,000 catch-up). This will reduce your taxable income for the year. If you are over age 50 or turn 50 in 2002, you may take advantage of the new age-50 catch-up contribution. This allows you to put up to $1,000 extra into your 403(b), on top of all your other limits. This will further reduce your taxable income for the year. If you make both types of catch-up contribution your maximum pretax contribution is $15,000 ($11,000 + $3,000 + $1,000).

Civil Warriors
Additional information about this movie can be found here.
Additional information about this movie can be found here.
I was surprised to find a brief reference to this site over at Ann DeWitt's black Confederate website (scroll down to bottom of page). I've written quite a bit about the interpretive problems on her site as well as the complete lack of any reference to her qualifications to discuss this subject given her requests for money and hopes that the site will eventually be used by teachers and students. This is her own understanding of her qualifications:
I believe being an American Citizen is credibility enough to create a website with links to the sources of Civil War documents and historian accounts. Who owns American History? We, The People.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what this vague reference is supposed to mean and it is apparent to me that Ms. DeWitt will continue to ignore legitimate questions about the content of her site that I have posted as well as others. That's fine. I will continue to monitor the site and continue to point out the obvious problems. Yes, everyone has the right to contribute to the Web, but responsibility for what you choose to post follows.
I finally finished my last writing assignment for the summer and am ready to think about the new school year. Due to the amount of construction taking place on our two campuses we have an extra week before classes begin in September. This year I've decided to reevaluate the seating arrangements in my classroom. In the past I've had my desks set up in a semi-circle, which promotes discussion between students without losing the focus on the teacher at the center of the room. This arrangement has worked well for me in the past, but it is time for a change. In addition to my AP US History and Civil War courses I will be taking part in a pilot program in American Studies. The course will run two periods over four days. The first hour will be spent in a lecture hall setting where all 32 students can come together for joint instruction followed by break out sessions of much smaller groups (pic #1). The focus of the course will make it possible to connect readings in American literature with more traditional sources found in the history survey course. It's going to be an exciting year for me. What I like is that the smaller sessions will take place around a large table (pic #2), which resembles the Harkness Table and philosophy employed at Phillips Exeter Academy.
This brings me back to my own classroom, where I've decided to follow suit and rearrange my desks (pic #3). I am hoping that this will create an even more intimate environment and promote mature dialog among my students. It will also allow me to move more easily away from the center of attention when necessary. All of my classes are designed as student-centered with a strong emphasis on debate and discussion. That said, it is clear that we are going to have to introduce and train students for this kind of setting. It does, after all, welcome distraction. I am looking forward to it.
All the best to those of you who have already started or who are getting ready to head back into the classroom.
Like many of you I've been closely following the heated controversy surrounding the plans to locate the Cordoba Institute within a few blocks of "Ground Zero" in Manhattan. While I have an opinion about this I've tried my best to maintain a safe distance from the debate in order to take in the broader picture. Admittedly, such a step is difficult for me to maintain since I lost my cousin on 9-11. Alisha Levin was 34 yrs. old and worked as a Human Resources manager for Fuji Bank in the South Tower. She left a message on her parent's answering machine to say that she was safe just after the first tower was hit.
For those of us interested in the emotion that often accompanies questions about how to commemorate historical landscapes this recent debate is instructive. The lines between different historical memories are already well entrenched. The many interest groups who lay claim to the site of 9-11 are also easily delineated. Various stakeholders in this contest have already voiced positions on the architecture of the proposed new complex as well as a planned memorial for the site. That an Islamic Center located 2-blocks from Ground Zer0 – as opposed to the schlock that has been sold on the actual site for some time – can generate such a response is also instructive. It should come as no surprise that the debate has been defined by such passion given the nature of the attack, the scale of the destruction, and the death toll. In my view every American has a stake in how the landscape is shaped in the coming years regardless of the legal and constitutional questions involved.
At the same time it is clear that the strong passions of those who claim ownership of this site are a function of different factors. The families are moved by the memories and loss of loved ones; others are clearly using this issue for political purposes; and, a third group is driven as much by fear of Islam as they are by a sense of national loss and a desire to assign blame. Of course, the spectrum of interested parties is much broader. How our collective memory of this site will shift in the coming decades is anyone's guess. After all, it was probably difficult to imagine reunions between Japanese and American veterans of Pearl Harbor in 1941. The passage of time shifts our focus as subsequent generations become more removed from the emotions of those who lived through the event. With time we are able to explore aspects of a remembered past in a way that cushions still latent emotions. At some point those emotions are more a result of choice than a direct connection to the generation that directly experienced some aspect of the event. Even for those who experienced the event itself or as an extension of one of the victims the passage of time leaves the rememberer in a very different place.
This controversy has also reinforced my own understanding of the way in which certain people lay claim to our Civil War past. You don't have to look far for the passions that stir our personal and intellectual connections to the Civil War in reference to a public space or document. I experience it first hand on this blog in the form of comments and private emails that express bitterness over something I've written. Of course, I do my best to parse out the content from the emotion, and while I am interested in both I give much more attention to the former. It would be a mistake to judge the emotion as right or wrong, but I do question its legitimacy. I don't believe that the emotion attached to people's Civil War memory today ought to be understood as a moral claim on the historical event in the way that competing memories of 9-11 continue to do so. The difference for me is the relative remoteness of the rememberer. I find it difficult to pinpoint the psychological difference between the two examples, but I have a sense of what is going on here. On the one hand the events of 9-11 are part of our lived history. It's a history that for many of us has left a void in the structure of our immediate families; even for those removed from the personal tragedy of the story it continues to give meaning to our lives and to the way we view the nation and rest of the world. I simply fail to see how such a dynamic holds for descendants of Civil War soldiers (Union and Confederate) and the rest of the general population. We may feel connected to some aspect of the war, but the overly moralistic tone and claims to an exclusive ownership of the past or even some aspect of the past is in my view completely unjustified. It's what I understand when I hear: "Get over it." Perhaps a better way of putting it is: "Get over yourself."

The USK, or Germany's equivalent to the ESRB, has rated a game called Alan Wake's American Nightmare.
This weekend, Microsoft will lift the lid on a new Alan Wake for Xbox LIVE Arcade. Alan Wake's American Nightmare is most likely its title. It was previously rumored to be called Alan Wake: Night Springs.
Thanks, Siliconera.

You can try to do that, but they make their decision based on the book value of the vehicle -vs- the repair cost. Once the repair cost reaches aprox 80% of the vehicle value, then it is consdered a total loss.

12th Doctor Changes - Predictions

Re: 12th Doctor Changes - Predictions
Well yeah I was expecting at LEAST one more series - if not a 10th Doctor like "movie" set if they didn't want to do a whole 12 episodes - just a few basically 2 part episodes they do as one offs.
I mean they did give him a new TARDIS control room, a new companion and even some new-ish supporting cast with Lady Sherlock (I know its not her name but that's what I call her!) Jenny and Strax. Given that we saw them in 3 out of the 12 episodes of this season I'd say that they were key supporting cast.
I would just hate for the new guy to have to mimic too much of 11's mannerisms and wardrobe and such just because writers may have written those stories for 11 not 12. I do hope we've seen the end of the Doctor telling people to Shut Up. Once in a while... okay. But he says it like once an episode. And the whole 'I wear this now, this is cool' thing... and not really getting what 'cool' is. I'd love to hear 12 go
"I wear leather again, leather is... functional."

From our friends at Food52.com, whose weekly recipe contests we've been featuring on HuffPost Food, comes this collection of football-friendly recipes for your Super Bowl Sunday feasts.
Click here for more Super Bowl recipes and food ideas -- appetizers, wings, dips, mains, drinks, desserts and more.
Food52: Patience pays off here -- take your time caramelizing the onions. First, the onions will give off a lakeful of liquid. Let it boil off slowly, and by the time the onions begin to caramelize -- it took ours at least an hour -- they'll be as soft as pudding and deeply concentrated in flavor. Their sweetness infuses the entire dip, and while the rest of the ingredients are the classic onion dip foundation -- sour cream, cream cheese, and chives -- this one will be better than any you've had before. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Foodfighter, a Buffalo native, knows wings. When we said we were open to the best version of a traditional favorite, a recipe like this one was what we were driving at. The glaze -- butter, hot sauce, honey and a spritz of lemon -- is classic and perfectly proportioned, and the technique of smearing the wings with a blue cheese "dip" before coating them in flour and cornstarch is sheer brilliance. With every bite, you get tangy heat, a satisfying crunch, tender meat and a seductive hint of blue cheese. Trust us: even your non cheese-eating friends will happily tuck into these. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Melanie Einzig
Food52: Most dips involve dumping a bunch of ingredients in a bowl and mixing them until smooth. If the ingredients are good quality, you'll end up with something worth dipping a chip into, but if you're like singing_baker and you tweak some of those ingredients, you'll end up with an unforgettable hors d'oeuvre. First, you roast the fennel and garlic, to bring out their sugars and intensify their flavors. You simmer the white beans (we used canned) in a fragrant garlic-and-rosemary oil. You blend the beans and fennel with more oil so the mixture lightens like a good whipped salt cod and potato puree. And, finally, you spoon it all into a baking dish, cover it with cheese, and slide it into a hot oven so the top of the dip toasts, leaving you with a crisp veil over the pillowy dip. You won't even remember the work that went into it once you're showered with praise. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: We know what you're thinking: a pita chip is a pita chip, right? Wrong. Machef's recipe is neither fussy nor overwrought, but it stands out for a couple of reasons. First, the chips are spread with both butter and honey before they're baked, making them extra rich and ever-so-slightly sweet. Second (and here we took a cue from the photo), the chips are dusted generously with dried herbs, which takes them from merely aromatic to downright fragrant (even more so after a day or two). Machef's suggestion of pairing these with cheese is one we wholeheartedly endorse -- although they're just as addictive on their own. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: A dip that could also serve as a hearty side or a fortifying soup, safenervine's dish is full of happy surprises. We love the technique of skimming the coconut butter from the top of the coconut milk to sauté the onions, garlic and ginger, and the hot spice oil adds a vibrant finish. Don't be alarmed when your "red" lentils melt into a buttery yellow mass -- the cilantro brings a welcome hit of green, as well as an element of freshness. The second time around, we added a spritz of lemon juice to finish the dip and really liked the results. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Helenthenanny knows how to pack a lot of flavors into a tiny movie snack. We love how the hatchbacks are indulgent yet not gratuitous: there's salty, smoky bacon, a hint of honey, jabs of heat from the chiles and peppercorns, and a blast of cream cheese that cools everything off. We do have one fix: the last step should say, "Chase with a good, cold beer!" - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Creamy and tangy, rather than gloopy and staid, this is picnic potato salad taken to the next level. Thirschfeld uses mayo as his base but then uses buttermilk, scallions and horseradish to lighten and brighten the dressing. A tablespoon of fresh dill is just enough to perfume the salad without overwhelming the other components. We love his description of how to tell when the potatoes are done, as well as his technique of removing them from the boiling water while still al dente, allowing the residual heat to finish cooking them through. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: This recipe is a weekend project, best attempted with a friend. But believe us, after doing all the chopping and measuring, you will not be let down. Bogre's meatballs defy gravity, and the spicy sauce pulses with paprika, rosemary and mushrooms. A few tips: mix the pork and beef before adding the rest of the seasonings. Roll the meatballs as gently as possible. And make sure you temper the sour cream before blending it into the sauce. You do this by stirring a few spoonfuls of the hot sauce into the sour cream before adding this back to the remaining sauce. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Honeyed and fragrant with a fiery kick, ravenouscouple's chicken wings encapsulate the word "addictive." The ingenious combination of coating the wings in Wondra and then double-frying them renders the fat and then crisps the skin to the point that it essentially becomes a shell encasing the succulent meat. We're pleasantly reminded of the best version of General Tso's chicken we've ever had -- only better. Fry up a mess of these for your friends, and they'll love you forever. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: We were initially seduced by "tipsy" in the title, but once we tried thirschfeld's recipe, we fell in love with much more than the Jack-Daniels-infused syrup. There are the peanuts (we used dry roasted) and the tiny dots of pancetta -- neither of which stoops to merely accessorizing the corn. The nuts give the treat heft, the pancetta salt and richness. The most important step is the oven-crisping. Be careful not to burn the edges and don't worry if the popcorn isn't totally crisp when you take it out of the oven -- it will continue to firm up as it cools. We loved this as a Halloween treat, but it would be just as delicious paired with a good movie. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: This recipe has everything we want with beans: pork fat from pancetta, and smoke and heat from dried poblanos (ancho chiles). Marie Viljoen uses a cool technique of adding vinegar and then a bunch of wine toward the end of cooking, which sharpens the dish with acid and keeps the wine flavor fresh, levitating atop the hearty beans and pork. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: The briliance of the sweet potato fry is that with all the sugar in the potatoes, you can really lay on the seasonings. Here, TasteFood has you use chili powder, cumin and cayenne. You might want to double the recipe so you'll feel better about sharing. You'll want to eat the first batch plain and the second tempered with the tangy sour cream sauce. And as we discovered, the hard way, cayenne's heat varies a lot -- start with 1/4 teaspoon and add more if you like. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Recently, I was perusing the box of Crispix® that my husband brings out of the pantry for breakfast most mornings, when I saw the recipe for Crispix Mix® on the flap. It had been years since I'd made any kind of cereal snack mix, and I thought maybe it was time to try my hand at it again. Starting with the recipe on the box, I tweaked the proportions and experimented with a few different, and slightly more "gourmet," additions, taking inspiration from one of my favorite recipes for spiced nuts from the New York Times. The results are below - may they fortify you and your loved ones this football season! Get the recipe. Photo: Melanie Einzig
Food52: Pork burgers always sound good in theory, but they don't necessarily turn out that way in practice. Ground pork can be dry and must be cooked just so. Lastnightsdinner came up with the perfect solution (and really the solution to so many of life's problems): just add bacon. She has you fold finely (and as we learned, it needs to be really fine) chopped bacon into the ground pork, along with some great aromatics -- fennel seed, onion and smoked paprika. The bacon fat helps keep the burgers moist and adds its own layer of flavor. To go with the burger you make a tart little cabbage and fennel salad, just the right counterpoint to the rich burger. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: The caramelized pork could be a recipe all its own, but we sure do like it in this sandwich, as well. Most bánh mì are made with a rich and fatty ground pork -- this seasoned pork tenderloin gives the sandwich character. Make sure you use a light airy roll with a crisp crust -- bánh mì is all about the interior. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: All the greens -- brussels sprouts and arugula -- were finely shredded but still crisp, and there were slivers of venison jerky, flecks of celery, and bits of dried cranberry and walnut. Wrapping it all was a snappy and faintly spicy vinaigrette. A friend and I declared it the world's best salad. But we'd had Oliver's Tom & Jerry and were feeling merry. So maybe it's not the best, but it's definitely in the hall of fame. And I can't think of a better antidote to a month of gilded holiday gorging. Here is my made-up version of it. Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: This is simply one of the best white pizzas we've ever tasted. The crust is crisp and rich with olive oil, and gently perfumed throughout with garlic. The mozzarella creates an ultra creamy base in lieu of sauce. Applying incredible attention to detail throughout, TasteFood blanches the broccoli rabe before sautéing it to get rid of excess bitterness; the crushed red pepper and garlic strike just the right balance of heat and pungency. Cooking the potato slices beforehand allows them to almost melt into the rest of the pizza, and a shower of rosemary, pecorino, and finally black pepper round out the symphony of complementary flavors. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Dan Barber hopped into the kitchen, waved his skilled hand over the short ribs -- at least, that's how I remember it -- and managed to make them edible. A few weeks later, I asked him if he'd teach me how to properly braise a short rib. I spent a morning with him in Blue Hill's kitchen on Washington Place. Now I know how to braise. But I'm not sure Dan will ever come to one of my parties again. Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: This salad is everything a Caesar should be -- assertive, complex, and rich -- with a few bonus points tacked on for the inspired use of pancetta (both on its own and as an instrument for crisping the homemade sourdough croutons). Marie Viljoen's dressing is mostly traditional (egg yolk, anchovy, garlic, olive oil) but veers towards the creative with the addition of lime juice, which contributes a pleasantly bitter hit of acid. If you find the notion of swiping each individual crouton with fresh garlic overwrought, trust us -- it's worth it. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: A few weeks ago, my husband and I enjoyed a meal at Al Forno in Providence, Rhode Island. I couldn't resist ordering a baked pasta, especially since they were featuring a seasonal version of their original 5-cheese wonder that also incorporated pumpkin and pancetta. Rich, lightly sweet but also tangy from the blend of different cheeses, the pasta was tinted a rich orange throughout -- although there were little chunks of pumpkin among the baked shells, I guessed that there had been some pumpkin pureed into the cream sauce as well. When I got home, I consulted the original recipe for the 5-cheese version, from Cucina Simpatica, and did my best to recreate what I'd had at the restaurant, adding roast pumpkin, pancetta and a little thyme. The most important part of the technique? You boil the pasta for barely 5 minutes, allowing the final blast in a flaming hot oven to cook it through to al dente and tinge the edges of the shells a lovely rich brown. Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Lorinarlock's butternut squash galette may just be our go-to first course for autumn dinner parties from now on. Rustic yet full of nuance, it coaxes sweetness from the winter squash and roasted garlic, complementing them with the right blend of salty creamy cheese, fragrant thyme and a delicate, buttery crust we're sure to adapt to many other recipes. There's no excess here: a touch of semolina gives the crust a sandy crunch, and the modest layer of ricotta and roasted garlic serves as a subtle, creamy bed for the melting squash. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Chocolate chip cookies are delicious. So are oatmeal raisin cookies. But in my opinion, the king of all cookies is a hybrid of the two. For years, I'd been sampling and comparing oatmeal chocolate chip cookies but had never tried making my own. Until this week, that is. After one misguided attempt resulting in insipid, cakey little domes that dried out almost instantaneously, I took a step back for a minute. I thought about a standard chewy oatmeal raisin cookie -- the kind that bends as you bite into it and leaves behind a rich, spicy aftertaste. And then I thought of the chocolate chip cookies my mother used to make when I was growing up. She took the recipe from the Nestle Toll House chocolate chips bag and tweaked it so that the cookies came out flatter and crisper around the edges, with rich caramel undertones. I decided what I was really looking to achieve lay somewhere in between these two. The resulting cookies were crisp indeed, almost lacy, with little pockets where butter and sugar had pooled to create crackly deposits of caramel. The spices were pronounced without being overbearing, and every cookie promised at least half a dozen chips. It was difficult to wait until they were cool enough to handle. I may never make plain old chocolate chip cookies again! Get the recipe. Photo: Melanie Einzig
Food52: This is the ultimate peanut butter cookie for chocolate lovers. The texture is reminiscent of the peanut butter cookie we all grew up on but with every detail refined -- the base is made with cocoa and you stir unsalted peanuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips (just the right amount of each so it's not overkill) and sprinkle coarse sea salt (we like Maldon) on top. As Food Blogga notes, don't use all-natural peanut butter or you won't get the same crumbly texture. We used Skippy. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: Usually when you drink a Manhattan, all the warmth comes from the hit of booze, but here a nutty and bitter IPA gives the drink depth and a warming feeling throughout. Collin uses the beer to replace the classic bitters and in doing so gives the drink a little fizz, a little life we think. Drink it cold as can be -- if you're up to it, chill the rye and vermouth before assembling. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz
Food52: The recipe that inspired the Beer Cocktail contest theme, this Michelada is great if you're in the mood for something savory and refreshing that won't put you under the table. It's got some of the classic flavors of a Bloody Mary (tomato, citrus, Worcestershire sauce), but because you use beer in place of vodka, the general effect is gentler -- better suited to a lazy afternoon than a pick-me-up brunch. TheFlyingFoodie has you coat the rim of the glass with celery salt (which is also in the drink), an old school touch that we love. - A&M Get the recipe. Photo: Sarah Shatz

text: Hello! As some of you may have noticed, I am a youngster here trying to delve into the wonders of Physics, that sometimes may be more than I can handle :P, and especially Quantum Mechanics, despite my young age and somewhat not-very-academical mathematical knowledge. (Not in a Physics University yet) I am really interested in Quantum Mechanics, and after reading/watching a lot of Documentaries, articles and books about what Quantum Mechanics is about and what its Principles are (in a non mathematical PoV) , I started bying books about it and studied it just like College students do. Pushing my math into a whole new level, since I am very eager to study new things all the time, I have to say I am really interested in QM, its mathematical side and statistical analysis of events. Yet everytime I speak about Physics, and specifically QM, as a career path, my parents and close people mostly discourage me, saying its a long road and that there are no job opportunities, for someone that wants to do research (that's me) on QM subjects. I have come upon career paths like Condensed matter here in Physics forums, yet I am pretty blank when it comes to this. Could you please explain to me what kind of opportunities I have as a Quantum Mechanics Researcher?

Using proprietary matte extraction techniques, zMatte quickly and simply creates mattes with minimal parameters even if you are dealing with fine hair detail, smoke, or reflections. It is easy to use, yet provides the needed tools when faced with good, bad, or ugly shots -- tools such as multiple matte creation, automatic spill suppression, sophisticated matte and edge manipulation, and color correction.
zMatte includes a complete set of keying plug-ins comprised of: Color Suppress for removing blue or green spill light; DeArtifact to clean up compression artifacts in DV and HD footage; Edge Composite to color correct, blur or mix only the edge of the key; Frame Averager for smoothing out film grain and video noise; Holdout Composite to matte the usually problematic smoke, fire and explosions; the zMatte Keyer to handle the heavy keying tasks; Light Wrap to bring background color into the foreground element; a Matte Generator used to key images not meant to be keyed; Matte Repair to fix common matte problems; Matte Wrap for retaining the definition of the matte edges while creating a smooth blend of transparency starting at the edge of the matte changing to fully opaque moving inward; and Screen Smoother to smooth out unevenly lit blue and greenscreens.
