You can restore your system to 2 days back!
I think this will work!
Go to the start or windows icon on the bottom left, click with the left button on your mouse.
In the entry box enter http://www.yahoo.com and press enter.
If the browser comes up you have internet.
Go to the tools of Internet explorer, then go to the internet options
Press delete and either delete all or at least delete temporary files and cookies.
If this all works, update your antivirus and do a full scan.
If you don't have an antivirus you can download avg for free.

Does Scripps or Mills feel the Bern more? An imaginary Twitter debate: Larry Wilson

Libraries at the cutting edge of the borrowing economy: Larry Wilson
Every day, or so it seems, I hear someone who has stopped going to the library herself in this online age wonder why libraries even exist anymore. It's not a new wisecrack. It was several comic ages ago that Jerry Seinfeld on his show picked up a volume in wonder: "A library book? Who reads library books?"Well, I do. Mostly it's true that as a problem book-buyer, even without the shelf space for another tome anywhere in the house, I purchase what I read.
A fictional Hillary is the one you should come to know: Larry Wilson
When it comes to politics, if it's true that truth is stranger than fiction, it's also the case that fiction can be "truer" than truth.I have written before in this space that there is a very real part of me, for instance, that declines to believe that a person called Donald Trump...
Lose the sign at site of Nazi youth camp: Larry Wilson
Here at May Day, we might well celebrate that ancient pagan celebration by cheering the thousand flowers that bloom in the form of ethnic bashes around this polyglot land.But while we're all about praising every other people who have come together to form America, it might be said that Germans — and there are tens of millions of us with German ancestry here — get short shrift.I can handle that oversight, though I have fond memories of a lovely...
Actually, fellow headline writers, storms did dent the drought: Larry Wilson
A week ago Saturday, after more than 24 hours straight of light rain, heavy rain, drizzle and mist in my Pasadena neighborhood on the edge of the Arroyo Seco, I walked around the small but mildly interesting garden that fills our front yard, marveling at how happy and bright green everything was. The two ancient oaks whose canopies shade and cool half of our open space have never looked better, after showing real signs of stress just a few months ago, drought-parched and worrisomely...
Tufts Awards poets soar into canon this Poetry Month: Larry Wilson
Since April is the cruelest month, or so quoth the poet, does that have anything to do with it also being Poetry Month?Is it like that scam by which Black History Month is February, the shortest month?Oh, damn the conspiracy theories.

How Alan Alda caught the science bug, and how he can give it to you: Larry Wilson
What I knew about the relationship between the great actor who is Alan Alda and the great discipline that is science was, no, not his formula for mixing up a test-tube martini on "MASH," but rather the extraordinary performance he gave as Caltech physicist Richard Feynman in the (almost) one-man play "QED" in 2001 at the Mark Taper Forum.Turns out Alda for years also made a TV show for PBS called...

A Very L.A. Spelling Bee goes bilingual, por supuesto: Larry Wilson
If a person only has one talent, as is the case with yours truly, and yet somehow maintains an almost giddily optimistic viewpoint in a doomed world in a dark time, he finds himself saying: "Better than no talents at all, what?"All I can do naturally well is spell.

"These went great with our "we do" invitations in khaki. At first, we weren't sure about the "will you?" which can't be changed - but eventually, it grew on us. Similar to the invitations, we submitted a design request for a few tweaks which was completed quickly - and correct on the first round! Shipping was right on time! I did notice that the khaki colors were slightly off between the invitations and the rsvp cards, but it was not too noticeable."
"I ordered these for my wedding for the tables and place cards. i then called to place a smaller order of the same cards with no writing on them so i can use them to label some family photos and favors etc. they came with the writing on them so i called and they fixed the problem right away and overnighted the correct cards."
"I really love how the menu cards turned out. The quick service for the proofs and speedy delivery was amazing. With all the planning that goes into one day, it's nice to have a company provide a smooth transaction and have a sale!"
"Again, I ordered the whole suite which consisted of the invitation, an enclosure card, reception card and response card. The color I selected was "Gilded" which is the perfect shade of mustard that contrasted beautifully with the bright white. I changed the font to Vintage Roman. The font along with the color gave the card a little vintage touch. I am so pleased with the end product."
"We wound up using this reception card as an enclosure card to include our wedding website for further information. It matched the invitation perfectly and was nice to include an enclosure that was slightly different design wise from the response card in the suite. We went with the Pearl White Shimmer paper for the entire suite and I highly recommend it if you are going with this for your invitation choice!"

Dow Gains for Second Straight Week
Stocks wrapped up their second straight week of gains as the euro zone's latest plan to fix its debt crisis overshadowed some disappointing forecasts from big U.S. companies.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 186.56 points, or 1.6%, to 12184.26, undoing most of the previous day's losses. The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index climbed 20.84 points, or 1.7%, to 1255.19, and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 50.47 points, or 1.9%, to 2646.85.
The advance was led by financial stocks. J.P. Morgan Chase JPM 0.62 % gained 3%, Bank of America BAC 1.22 % added 2.3% and Morgan Stanley MS 0.40 % climbed 3.2 %. Holding back some of the Dow's gains was DuPont, which fell 3.2% after the chemical company revised its full-year 2011 earnings outlook to a range that was below analyst expectations.
With Friday's gains, the Dow logged a weekly gain of 1.4%, adding to the previous week's 7% rally. The Dow is up 1.2% this month and 5.2% for the year.
Friday's move came after the 17 countries of the euro zone, overriding opposition from the U.K., formally agreed to run only minimal budget deficits in the future and allowed the European Court of Justice the right to strike down national laws that don't enforce such discipline, a major transfer of national sovereignty over budget policy.
While details of the agreement were scarce, leaders agreed to cap the European Stability Mechanism at €500 billion ($667.05 billion), and that EU nations would provide up to €200 billion in loans to the International Monetary Fund to increase its funding ability.
In Europe, the Stoxx Europe 600 reversed losses to gain 1.2%, while France's CAC-40 index rose 2.5%. In the U.K., which didn't agree to the new fiscal rules, the FTSE 100 advanced 1.2%.
Ten-year bond yields for Italy, Spain and Greece fell across the board, with the yield spread narrowing with German bonds, according to Tradeweb.
Gold rose 0.2%, to $1,712.80 a troy ounce, while crude-oil prices rose 1.1%, to $99.41 a barrel. The U.S. dollar was weaker against the euro and the yen. Treasurys fell, sending the yield on the 10-year note to 2.056%.
In U.S. economic data, the trade deficit narrowed in October for the fourth month in a row, as oil exports helped to offset record imports from China. The October deficit was smaller than Wall Street expectations. Separately, an early reading on consumer sentiment in December topped expectations.
In corporate news, General Electric TXN 0.41 % gained 3.3%. The conglomerate raised its quarterly dividend for the fourth time in two years by two cents, to 17 cents a share, citing continued strengthening in its financial performance.
Texas Instruments TXN 0.41 % reversed losses to edge up 0.1% after the chip maker lowered its fiscal fourth-quarter earnings and revenue outlook, citing lower demand across a wide range of markets, customers and products. Fellow chip maker Altera also managed to gain, climbing 1.2% after cutting its forecast for fourth-quarter revenue, citing a deteriorating outlook across all major markets, including both large and small clients. Lattice Semiconductor LSCC 3.24 % fell 3.8% after the company cut its projections, citing softening demand.
Comverse Technology GE 0.33 % gained 6% after the customer management software company reported better-than-expected fiscal third-quarter earnings and revenue.
Blue Coat Systems soared 44% after the network optimization software company said it agreed to be acquired by private-equity firm Thoma Bravo in a deal valuing the company at about $1.3 billion.

? Mainly sexually... I am a male and last time I was on it, Cymbalta just killed everything in that department. What were your side effects? How long did they last? Thanks!
Doc put me on Cymbalta & Wellbutrin XL- anyone who is on this had side effects esp sexual?

Decreased libido (sex drive) is a most irritating s/e of all SSRI's, not so much with Wellbutrin. And, sorry to say, will last as long as you are on the med and for a bit of time after discontinuing the same. That was my experience with all of the SSRI's and SNRI's, such as Cymbalta. Mu boyfriend got some Viagra and that seemed to help out, but is rather expensive.
Best of luck,
Sweet Hippie

Sorry, but here is another DIFFERENT answer, I was on welbutrin and had no no effects,I am now on Cymalta 120 mg a day and i love it, no sexuaul side effects, shakiness, etc. It also helps somewhat with my pain from Tardive Dyskinesia. I highly recommend this med! Lisa Zibuda

Hi There, been on the Cymbalta/wellbutrin combo for about 5+ yrs (with a spell when I tried Au Natural). Cymbalta is known to suppress, Labido, inhibit male erections and prevent female Orgasm. The Doc added the cymbalta to my cocktail and it helped off set this a lot for the first 6 months. I was on 300 Welbutrin and 60 Cymbalta with xanax prn... I have recently increased the Welbutrin to 450 and dropped cymbalta to 40 mg and this has helped with lethargy, but labido is TBD. The big culprit for the sexual side effects is cymbalta... talk with the doc and see if cymbalta is necessary... it may be that welbutrin plus xanax on its own could replace the cymbalta... Good luck. PS DO NOT GO COLD TURKEY- the withdrawal on cymbalta is pretty horrible... even after missing one dose I get really sick...
* added Welbutrin Not Cymbalta

ADA Needs Your Help in Lobbying for ERISA Reform Legislation
August 14, 2012
Earlier this year, Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) introduced H.R. 4818, a bill that would address two common insurance practices that can diminish the value of patients' coverage. To help pass this important insurance reform bill, the ADA is asking for help in collecting real-life stories about your patients who have experienced:
- financial impacts from being covered by more than one plan and being denied payment by the secondary plan simply because it was a secondary payer, or
- adverse impacts from to going to you as a non-participating provider and being unable to assign their plan benefits directly to you.

Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels' dream of replacing the Alaskan Way Viaduct with a four-lane tunnel is as dead as anything gets in Olympia.
Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels' dream of replacing the Alaskan Way Viaduct with a four-lane tunnel is as dead as anything gets in Olympia.
Gov. Christine Gregoire, Democratic leaders in the House and Senate and some Republicans joined together Tuesday and said no way, never.
Instead they called for a new viaduct to replace the old viaduct.
And still, ballots are about to go out asking Seattle voters for their opinions — whether to support a tunnel or an elevated structure.
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Reed brother led detectives to bodies believed to be Arlington couple
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
- Your vote counts so little in Tuesday's primary election, John Oliver joked about it on 'Last Week Tonight'
Most Read Stories
State leaders' rejection of the tunnel came hours after the state Department of Transportation issued a letter declaring a four-lane tunnel too dangerous to merit further study. The tunnel concept, in which the shoulders would be used as exit lanes at rush hour, has "serious operational and safety problems," the DOT said.
Seattle officials complained DOT was biased against a tunnel and ignored the experience of many cities that operate tunnels with little or no space for cars to pull over.
The reaction in Olympia was striking in that lawmakers spoke with one voice, where before there was ambiguity. Nickels and other tunnel supporters had taken advantage of any political uncertainty to press their case.
But there was no hedging Tuesday.
Gregoire said moving forward with the tunnel "would simply be irresponsible. … Today we need to move forward with the one option that meets safety standards and is fiscally responsible: the elevated structure."
As for safety, she said, "The DOT review has shown that the hybrid tunnel proposal does not meet state and federal safety standards. Furthermore, an accident where people could not escape this tunnel could prove catastrophic."
Final decisions rest with the state, not the city. Still, Marianne Bichsel, a spokeswoman for Nickels, urged citizens to participate in the all-mail vote. Ballots will be distributed next week and must be postmarked by March 13.
"The voters need to decide whether they're going to allow Olympia to shove a bigger elevated structure onto Seattle's waterfront without their say. The voters of Seattle need to step up, and express their opinions on that."
Legislative leaders questioned the value of the city vote.
House Majority Leader Lynn Kessler, D-Hoquiam, said the city should stop the election. Senate Majority Leader Lisa Brown, D-Spokane, said that even if voters overwhelmingly support the city's tunnel proposal, she can't see the state abiding by their decision.
Seattle City Council President Nick Licata, who supports rebuilding the viaduct, said he called the King County Elections Office to see how the city could cancel the public vote, which costs $1 million to conduct. "How can we ask voters to vote for something we know is seen as worthless by state legislators?" he said.
Support from a majority of the council would be needed to cancel the election.
The surface option
Lawmakers haven't totally ruled out the prospect of just tearing down the old, earthquake-damaged viaduct, then improving surface streets and transit.
"I don't think the door has been completely closed," Brown said.
State Transportation Secretary Doug MacDonald said the option of a surface boulevard, instead of a viaduct, would require more study. "It's unlikely we're going to get to the end without being pressed harder on the surface [option]," he said.
The problem, he said, is that a surface road would reduce capacity. Gregoire has previously rejected a surface option, and insisted on preserving one of Seattle's two main north-south highways.
A surface-street option is the pro-tunnel City Council's official second choice. In addition, King County Executive Ron Sims has pushed the idea. House Speaker Frank Chopp, D-Seattle, has said he's open to it, if the elevated highway doesn't move ahead.
The tunnel's demise might help Cary Moon, co-founder of the People's Waterfront Coalition, which wants a highway-free waterfront. The group asks people to vote "no" on both a tunnel and a new viaduct.
However, Moon said the report shows how deeply the DOT has "dug in their heels" in favor of a six-lane highway, so it may be difficult to promote a nonhighway alternative. On the other hand, with the tunnel option fading, she predicts its backers will embrace her group's vision of improved streets, more transit and less automobile use.
Subtracting lanes
Nickels has argued that a tunnel would create open space and reduce noise along Elliott Bay.
He supported a six-lane version last year, but after cost estimates soared to $4.6 billion, the city thought up a cheaper four-lane concept, and persuaded the state's viaduct team to examine it in early January. A ballpark $3.4 billion estimate emerged — and the city touted a $1.2 billion savings.
The four-lane version would use safety shoulders as exit lanes during rush hour, to accommodate 113,000 daily trips, similar to the viaduct's current capacity, city transportation managers say.
But in the report released Tuesday, the state DOT said clogs would occur, safety would be jeopardized when disabled cars block the highway, and emergency crews would take longer to arrive.
Seattle officials reply that reducing speed to 35 mph at busy times would allow safe operation.
City police and fire departments have said safety would be better than it is today.
Lawmakers had asked DOT to also study whether the $3.4 billion estimate was credible, but the agency said there wasn't time to do so.
Instead, the state concluded a four-lane tunnel was simply too hazardous to consider.
"We didn't trust the tunnel," MacDonald said.
The city has bitterly complained about being excluded from nine days of recent DOT studies.
"This document doesn't provide us with any new information," said Grace Crunican, city transportation director.
Other cities' tunnels
A state-appointed expert review panel said last month that a narrower tunnel "shows promise," and a member, Dave McCracken, said Tuesday the state ought to obtain detailed cost breakdowns for it.
McCracken said he considers the city's proposal to be safe.
Several tunnels in the U.S. have zero or reduced-width shoulders, something allowed by national design standards to reduce costs, city officials say.
European cities are experimenting with so-called "hard-running shoulders" that become traffic lanes at rush hour, reducing travel times up to 20 percent. Washington state DOT, which participated in a federal study tour of those projects last summer, will soon study whether putting traffic on shoulders makes sense on freeways in Seattle and its suburbs.
Meanwhile, Seattle City Councilman Peter Steinbrueck, an architect, said the city would resort to lawsuits, if necessary, to oppose a new viaduct, which he would fight "to my dying day."
Pro-tunnel Councilwoman Jan Drago vowed political retaliation against the governor.
Former Gov. Gary Locke, a tunnel supporter, called for a collective timeout. "Everyone needs to step back and look at all the ideas in calm and deliberative fashion," he said.

Carroll University's new science building is a project ingrained with the pioneering spirit of Wisconsin's first institution of higher education. It embodies one of our top priorities, and a key element of the university's strategic plan, to "improve academic quality and strengthen the core educational experience for students."
The $24 million, nearly 42,000-square-foot facility will welcome its first class of students in fall of 2016. This is the initial phase of a three-phase project. It combines state-of-the-art teaching laboratories, research spaces and instrumentation rooms. It will transform the educational experience of every Carroll student, especially those students pursuing an education in the health and medical science fields.
We're excited to watch its progress! Check back often for project updates and the view from our live video feed throughout construction.

What are you using at home? If you have more than one computer or boot partition, select the one you use the most.
I have three computers. One is 9 years old and running Ubuntu Linux. The Macbook is running OSX and Windows 7 beta in a vm. The iMac runs OSX. I'm gonna start using Windows 7 a little more but so far this year, OSX is what I use at home the most.
I used to tinker a lot but these days not much time. Always had a fascination with the free OSs but really, no no no time any more for such things.

Family Farming Newsletter for Latin America and the Caribbean. January - March 2014
In this issue
- Interview with Juan Corvalán Huerta, President of the National Family Farming Association in Chile
- Faming Farming in Haiti
- Good practices:
- Sustainable Modernization of Traditional Agriculture in Mexico
- Good practices as a strategy of recovery of degraded pasture land in forests of the Brazilian Amazon with palm oil crops
- Successful cases of agro-environmental policy: Brazil's National Plan for the Promotion of Socio-Biodiversity Product Chains (PNPSB)
- Small–scale and limited resource aquaculture in Latin America and the Caribbean: An integral public policy approach
- Chile: Education and Training Program for Rural Women
The start of this year leads us to consider what was achieved in 2013 and what should be done in 2014
The celebration of the International Year of Quinoa (IYQ) in 2013 generated more research, investment, programs and projects, all with the aim of creating the conditions for the golden grain of the Andes to be produced in countries of the five continents and integrated into the diet of the most vulnerable population. Quinoa is not only a highly nutritious food, but its cultivation can also help to fight poverty around the world. However, while we owe our appreciation to the Andean peoples for showing humanity how to preserve, prepare and share food of high nutritional value, there is still much to do to make quinoa available to those who suffer from hunger worldwide.
Just as Andean farmers have known how to preserve and improve quinoa for thousands of years, family farmers around the world have passed on their knowledge and skills from generation to generation, preserving and improving many of the practices and technologies that ensure agricultural sustainability. And so, as we celebrate the International Year of Family Farming 2014, there is much to learn about sustainable practices from the families of small and medium-sized producers, including indigenous peoples, traditional communities, fishermen, shepherds and many others, who in Latin America represent 81% of agricultural holdings.
Several countries have declared Family Farming to be a matter of national interest, and there are various programs at the regional level. However, other countries should also promote inclusive public policies aimed at family farmers. The actions to be taken during this year should be closely linked to these objectives: 1) support the development of agricultural, environmental and social policies conducive to sustainable family farming; (2) increase knowledge, communication and public awareness; (3) achieve a better understanding of the needs of family farming, including its potential and limitations, and ensure technical support; and (4) create synergies for sustainability.
Although the UN has designated FAO as coordinator of the IYFF 2014 activities, initiatives in line with global objectives should be presented within each country. If the IYQ 2013 was about preserving and promoting the knowledge and practices of the Andean peoples regarding the cultivation of quinoa with the purpose of improving the diet of millions of people, the IYFF 2014 should highlight the role of family farmers around the world and their potential to contribute to the eradication of hunger, poverty reduction and the conservation of natural resources, which are essential elements of a sustainable future.
As usual, we begin the year with a lot of work to do.

Buying a new front bumper! :D
Okay, yesterday was my bday and my parents finally decided to let me buy a front bumper. I don't want to go over 400USD but 500USD is max. I've looked around a lot and I like the Bestop Highrock bumper with the grill guard but I don't like the color it is. If any of you have the bumper with the black grill guard post some pics or of some other bumpers you might think I like.
Nevermind. Bought a bumper.
That was quick? What did you get?

I am running Debian 6 and I am trying to increase the file descriptor limit but it does not want to work. This is what I have done:
I edited
/etc/sysctl.conf by adding
fs.file-max = 64000 at the end and applied the changes using
sysctl -p.
I then edited
/etc/security/limits.conf and added the following lines:
* soft nofile 64000 and
* hard nofile 64000.
Now when I execute
ulimit -Hn and
ulimit -Sn I still see 1024. I rebooted the server and I still get the same result. What have I failed to do?

Charge of Murder Against an Officer Stirs Debate on Risk
By MIKE ALLEN
Published: February 17, 1999
NEW MILFORD, Conn., Feb. 14— In the privacy of his lawyer's office, Officer Scott B. Smith began to feel sick to his stomach.
Only hours earlier, his future had seemed so promising. He had been filling in for a detective, showing the brass what he could do. He had passed the written, oral and agility tests of the Connecticut State Police, and he hoped to become a trooper in training this summer.
But that late December day in the lawyer's office, it was all falling apart. The New Milford police officer had shot and killed a fleeing suspect, and some of the facts did not look good. He had shot the suspect in the back, while the man was on his knees, and from such a close range that the muzzle flash had burned the man's shirt and skin. The suspect, Franklyn D. Reid, had no gun. He was black. Officer Smith is white.
Officer Smith, 27, contends that if he had not fired that shot, it would have been his body there on the grassy shoulder of U.S. 202. Mr. Reid, the officer said, had refused to show his hands and had begun to reach for his midsection.
Prosecutors see it differently, and now Officer Smith has been charged with murder, the first Connecticut police officer ever to be charged with murder in the line of duty. Such a charge is so rare nationally that Officer Smith's lawyer says he has been unable to find a similar case to help in preparing a defense.
The repercussions of the case have been felt throughout Connecticut among police and the public alike. Many police officers say they fear that the case will set a dangerous precedent that could make them hesitate a fatal extra second when confronted with a knife or a gun. The prosecutor, State's Attorney John A. Connelly of Waterbury, contends that the police just are not used to being held as accountable as other citizens.
Since Officer Smith was arrested, the public reaction in Litchfield County, known for the lakefront summer homes of New York's wealthy, has been loud and angry. But in direct contrast to the recent demonstrations in New York City after an unarmed street vendor was killed by four officers, the outcry has been almost all in favor of the officer.
When a rock radio station in Hartford held a protest rally at the Capitol, it was to call for the resignation of Mr. Connelly. The morning host at WZMX-FM, who goes by the name Sebastian, appeared beneath a banner that said, ''Sebastian Backs the Blue,'' and drew whistles and cheers when he lambasted the prosecutor.
Police departments throughout the state have helped whip up support for Officer Smith by selling ''Officer Needs Assistance'' T-shirts and holding dinners to benefit a legal defense fund, and by setting up a Web page (members.aol.com/copsupport) that draws 400 to 800 E-mail messages a day.
''Is it really necessary that the police take the first bullet?'' the Web page asks.
The shooting, which might have been incendiary in an urban area, provoked little public response in the town of 25,000 before the officer was charged. ''There was no pressure'' from members of minority groups to charge the officer, Mr. Connelly said.
Now, much of the officers' anger is focused on Mr. Connelly. During a recent hearing in the case, about 200 officers massed outside the courthouse to denounce Mr. Connelly as ''Judas.''
Last week, Mr. Connelly called a meeting of a dozen police chiefs to try to defuse the tension. ''Murder is defined as the intentional killing of an individual,'' he said in an interview. ''There's no provision saying that if you're a cop, the law doesn't apply to you.''
The Federal Government keeps no national tally of criminal charges lodged against police officers. But Mary D. Powers, who heads the National Coalition on Police Accountability, a group in Chicago that tracks such charges informally, said that she knew of only a few cases in the last decade in which officers were charged with murder in the line of duty.
Mr. Connelly, a former head of the State Police, said that the evidence -- including the statement of a witness who said Mr. Reid had already been subdued when he was shot -- convinced him that murder was the only appropriate charge, one that could result in a sentence of 25 years to life in prison.
Four days after Officer Smith was charged on Jan. 19, an East Hartford officer was shot in the head as he responded to a noise complaint, leading some fellow officers to wonder whether he hesitated to draw his gun because of the New Milford case. Three days later, the only police officer in the Connecticut legislature committed suicide. The events, although perhaps unrelated, have left police officers rattled throughout the state.
''A lot of guys are saying it's been tough to even come to work,'' Office Peter M. DeLouis, 34, said as he steered his cruiser along the narrow, winding former cart paths of New Milford.
Besides raising old questions about the proper bounds of deadly force, the case exposes a predicament for prosecutors in Connecticut. In this state, prosecutors -- not a grand jury -- are responsible for deciding whether an officer will face criminal charges after a shooting. But those same prosecutors also rely on a daily basis for the testimony of police officers in making cases against everyone from bad drivers to drug dealers.

Our Best Recipes EverOur recipe archivists, who also monitor online ratings, reckon that these 25 dishes were the standouts of their respective years. From last year to our first year in 1987, find the recipes we named our best ever these past 25 years.
2011: Fantastic Bourbon Smoked ChickenAfter Steven Raichlen sent us this recipe in 2011, we declared it the most beautiful and best-tasting chicken we'd ever had. To reinforce the whiskey flavor in the brine and basting butter, Steve says to use Jack Daniel's whiskey barrel chips for smoking—widely available in grill and gourmet shops. This bird is so wonderfully moist and flavorful, it doesn't need added embellishment.
2010: Fried Catfish with Hush Puppies and Tartar SauceProof that you can get fried food to fit into a healthy diet. Coat the fillets and prepare the batter for hush puppies while you wait for the oil to come up to temperature. You can also make the tartar sauce up to two days ahead and keep it refrigerated. If you don't like catfish, use halibut, tilapia, or another flaky white fish.
View Recipe: Fried Catfish with Hush Puppies and Tartar Sauce
2009: Bucatini with MushroomsA large assortment of mushrooms, including luxurious dried porcinis, is the key to the huge earthy flavor of this dish. It's meatless, but you'd never know it with all the savory flavor of mushrooms, Parmesan, and truffle oil. A generous splash of cream gives the sauce its luscious texture.
2008: Chocolate-Mint BarsYou'll love these if you're a big fan of the thin chocolate mint Girl Scout cookies. The dense base layer is like a rich, fudgy brownie, so don't overcook it or the dessert bars will be dry. Refrigerating the mint bars allows the chocolaty top layer to set properly. You can make the dessert up to one day ahead. For a more grown-up taste, you can also use dark chocolate chips for some or all of the semisweet chocolate chips in the glaze.
2007: Whole-Wheat Cinnamon RollsEverything you crave in a cinnamon roll, in a vastly lighter version. Brown sugar sweetens the filling of this breakfast treat, and powdered sugar dissolves into a milky glaze that's drizzled over the top of these delicious and good for you cinnamon rolls. Whole-wheat flour adds a healthy dimension to these tasty rolls.
2006: Beef Carnitas TacosThese simple tacos are an ideal showcase for tender Beef Carnitas—tender, slowly cooked, inexpensive beef stew meat that won us over for its great flavor and versatility. You can warm the tortillas in a nonstick skillet just until lightly browned.
2005: Risotto with Porcini Mushrooms and MascarponeA dollop of mascarpone, a buttery-rich Italian cheese, gives this risotto its luxurious creamy consistency. Porcini mushrooms have a smooth, meaty texture when hydrated; their pungent, woodsy taste gives an extraordinary depth to this dish.
2004: Beef Daube ProvençalThis classic French braised beef, red wine, and vegetable stew is simple and delicious. This recipe ran in a Thanksgiving weekend package and the stew was perfect for that Wednesday night before Thanksgiving when you have guests arriving, but really need to focus on prepping food for the next day. This perfectly balanced dish found its way into our regular rotation.
2003: Chicken TetrazziniA classic that makes great use of leftover turkey or chicken. It's so creamy and comforting that you'll be glad it makes two casseroles—one for now and one for later.
2002: Anticuchos (Peruvian Beef Kebabs)Hot, spicy, vibrant in color and flavor. These kebabs taught us to love the spice aji amarillo and Peruvian food after tasting what their cuisine had to offer.
2001: Pasta with Roasted Butternut Squash and ShallotsNutty cheese with caramelized roasted shallots and squash get just the right hint of herbs from sage. Serving over elegant pappardelle pasta gives it an elegant look and perfect bite to match the delicately roasted topping.
View Recipe: Pasta with Roasted Butternut Squash and Shallots
2000: Texas Sheet Cake
1999: Toffee Dip with Apples2000: A big, flat classic. Toasty nuts and fudgy cake get topped with a thin, crackly glaze. It's easy and since it first appeared in the magazine in 2000, it's been a staff and reader favorite.
1999: Crunchy toffee bits stirred into a creamy dip make this impossible to stop eating. It's kid and adult friendly. Coating the apples with pineapple juice prevent them from browning. Unlike today, we haven't always photographed every recipe. Unfortunately, this is one that we didn't capture.
1998: Barbecue Roasted SalmonSweet and spicy with just the right amount of acidity to make this a winning salmon dish. The spice rub melts into a glaze in the oven. The options for side dishes are endless—mashed potatoes, rice, couscous, asparagus, or sugar snap peas.
1997: Jamaican Banana Bread
1996: Greek-Style Scampi1997: Nuts, coconut, lime, and rum give this quick bread a tropical and indulgent feel. It's an unforgettable recipe with the tangy lime glaze balancing the sweet bread. Give it a try. Don't let the long ingredient list fool you; many are repeated ingredients that are mixed in the bread and then used to top the bread with a glaze that puts drizzled powdered sugar and milk to shame.
View Recipe: Jamaican Banana Bread
1996: Feta and tomato take Italian scampi in a Greek direction and it's a good move. Serve over orzo pasta or with pita wedges to soak up the tomato sauce.
1995: Chiles Rellenos CasseroleOne of those "wow" dishes. It's comforting, full of flavor, different than any other casserole you've had, and it's really easy. Could it get anyetter? When corn is in season, by all means, cut off fresh kernels to use instead of frozen.
1994: Fettuccine AlfredoHoly calcium! Heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and butter create the regular calorie and fat-filled alfredo sauce. Here, we used olive oil instead of butter, nixed the cream in favor of a thickened milk-based sauce that uses flour and cream cheese to thicken it, leaving plenty of room for a cup of the good stuff—Parmigianno-Reggiano cheese.
We've revisited this recipe more than once and made subtle changes to fit into the current eating philosophy and this one always makes the transition smoothly. It's a solid…and delicious recipe.
1993: Roasted Chicken and Vegetables
1992: Soupe A L'Oignon (French Onion Soup)1993: A meal for two that utilizes the cooktop for browning and the oven for roasting all in one skillet. Sage, rosemary, paprika, and pepper, when added with olives, fennel bulb, shallots, and red pepper make a harmonious combination of seasonings that elevate chicken and potatoes. When you add the vegetables to the skillet it sizzles and loosens the browned bits spreading the yummy concentrated flavor. The combination isn't common, but it's easy, delicious, and a definite repeater.
View Recipe: Roasted Chicken and Vegetables
1992: Who doesn't love French Onion Soup? Who thought it could be modified to lower sodium and saturated fat and still be delicious? Here you go…a few modifications a couple decades later and it's still a crowd-pleasing dish.
1991: Malaysian Chicken PizzaA pizza with a spicy, sweet, peanut butter and soy sauce-based sauce seemed ahead of its time in 1991 when it first ran. Twenty years later and it's still a new adventurous pizza for most people. If you like barbecue chicken pizza, you'll love this.
1990: Fresh Orange SorbetThis easy sorbet gets rave reviews from our staffers for two reasons. First, it's super easy to make; fresh squeezed orange juice, orange zest, sugar, and water are all you'll need. Plus, the orange flavor, much like French sorbets, is both intense and refreshing.
1989: Creamy Potato SaladTrue to its name, this is a very creamy and rich traditional-flavored potato salad. Serve at your next cookout and wait for the rave reviews. It's quick to make; the only chopping is potatoes and green onions and you can combine the dressing while the potatoes cook.
1988: Make-Ahead Breakfast CasseroleLean ground pork is seasoned to mimic the flavor of sausage, while allowing you to control the sodium. Egg substitute, eggs, and egg whites are combined to provide the desired egg-y texture with less saturated fat than you'd have if it was all eggs. Sharp cheddar cheese instead of mild cheddar makes it taste like there's more cheese than a couple tablespoons per serving, while keeping saturated fat at a reasonable level. For a super convenient breakfast when you have company, this is assembled the day before and chills in the refrigerator until you're ready to bake it in the morning.
1987: Tarragon Chicken SaladWe love the convenience of the oven bag for this recipe. Crispy, browned skin isn't needed when you remove it before serving, but moist, tender chicken is and that's what you get with the bag keeping the chicken surrounded by steam and juices during cooking. You use a baking pan, but it doesn't get dirty, thanks to the bag. After you put the cooked chicken on the cutting board to cool slightly, dump the cooking liquid in the sink and use the bag to catch the skin and bones removed from the chicken so the bag can provide another use. The dressing has just the right combination of herbs and tanginess for a fresh and bright chicken salad. Make and chill the dressing right after putting the chicken in the oven.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) _ A butterfly species discovered in Florida has a new name after a bidder bought the naming rights in an online auction.
The butterfly's common name will be the Minerva owl butterfly.
It's being named after the late Margery Minerva Blythe Kitzmiller of Ohio. She died in 1972.
Kitzmiller was a mother of three sons. The bidder chose to remain anonymous but the payment of $40,800 was made on behalf of Kitzmiller's grandchildren.
University of Florida researchers discovered the new species while looking through a butterfly collection at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville earlier this year.

Serious questions for United after cup humiliation< AP Photo LON823, LON824< Eds: Updates with detail, quotes. With AP Photos.< By STEVE DOUGLAS= AP Sports Writer=
MANCHESTER, England (AP) - Louis van Gaal has always said it could get worse before it gets better at Manchester United.
He couldn't have thought it would get this bad.
Barely two months ago, a jubilant Van Gaal was leaping out of his seat and high-fiving his Netherlands players as he masterminded a 5-1 thrashing of Spain at the World Cup in Brazil.
Compare that to the glum, stony-faced figure of Van Gaal who remained glued to his seat during United's humiliating 4-0 loss to third-tier club MK Dons in the second round of the League Cup on Tuesday.
To the right of him, Ryan Giggs - a club great who is now Van Gaal's assistant coach - buried his face in his hands.
Even though United fielded a virtual reserve team, albeit one containing established internationals like Javier Hernandez, Danny Welbeck and Shinji Kagawa, it was one of the most embarrassing results in the history of England's biggest club.
Following on from a winless start in the Premier League after two games of Van Gaal's tenure, serious doubts are already being raised about the Dutchman's use of the 3-5-2 formation and the lack of depth in his squad, especially in defense.
''The process needs time,'' Van Gaal said. ''We know exactly what we are doing.''
Time is something United doesn't have.
David Moyes only lasted 10 months last season before being fired, and Van Gaal has already virtually written off United's chances of winning the Premier League in this second straight year of transition at Old Trafford.
With no European football this season, the FA Cup remains the only genuine opportunity for silverware - and it is still only August.
The optimism of pre-season, when United won six straight games under Van Gaal, including victories over Real Madrid and Liverpool, has disappeared.
Van Gaal is now left hoping a spending spree of about 130 million pounds ($215 million), capped by the club-record signing of Angel Di Maria for $99 million hours before the MK Dons game, pays off.
Van Gaal has played three at the back in his time at United but his defenders look uncomfortable in that formation and the wing backs - so crucial in a 3-5-2 - utilized by the Dutchman
