Skinny Frozen Peanut Butter Pie.
This pie. Wow.
When I was brainstorming birthday cake recipes to make for Kevin's birthday, I got a brainfreeze. It may OR may not have been from the orange creamsicle I was inhaling, but I'm pretty sure it was because I was SO overwhelmed with all the sprinkle-y, chocolate buttercream-y, and death-by-chocolate thoughts swirling in my head.
I threw up my hands and asked friends on my Facebook what I should make. I got so many wonderful ideas, so thank you for sending them in!
Lucky for my tastebuds, Kevin loves peanut butter & chocolate as much as I do, so I knew his birthday treat HAD to involve the mighty duo. Since I have no patience for baking up a fancy schmancy layered birthday cake on a weeknight, a no-bake treat was definitely top priority here.
AND I love a skinny dessert as much as the next girl!
Using some lighter alternatives, I made one home run pie that I honestly think will be demanded at each and every birthday going forward. And on holidays. And well, probably on a regular basis. And I'm more than OK with that. Fat free frozen whipped topping, light cream cheese, a sprinkle of sugar, a generous pour of sugar-free chocolate syrup. All frozen together on top of a homemade Oreo cookie crust.
I couldn't stop slicing off little slivers, which was embarrassing because it wasn't even my own birthday. I couldn't stop licking the spatula as I swirled on each layer. I washed it between each layer, don't worry! I couldn't stop crushing up more Reese's Pieces to sprinkle on top. They're one of my favorite ice cream toppers. Anyone agree?!
I wanted more of this pie the second it was all gone.
This pie. It's legendary. Creamy, thick, melty, full of peanut butter, chocolate, a Reese's Pieces crunch, buttery oreo cookie crust, and I don't even have to turn on the oven.
The pie may or may not have been served to the birthday boy with a slice already taken out for picture purposes. #bloggerproblems
Skinny Frozen Peanut Butter Pie
A lightened up no-bake peanut butter pie. Incredible!
Yield: serves 8-10
Oreo Cookie Crust
- 24 reduced fat Oreos (or regular Oreos if you prefer)
- 1/4 cup light butter, melted (I used Land O' Lakes Light)
- 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 8 ounces reduced fat cream cheese, softened (may also use fat free)
- 8 ounces fat-free thawed whipped topping (I used Cool Whip Free)1
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
- 1 cup crushed Reese's Pieces, divided
- First, make the Oreo cookie crust by crushing the Oreos into a fine crumb using a food processor or blender. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, mix the crushed Oreo crumbs and melted butter together. It may look like there is not enough butter, but it will come together.
- Place into a 9 or 10 inch pie pan, pressing the crumbs onto the bottom and up the sides as much as it will fit. Try to make the crust 1/8 inch thick all around. It does not have to be perfect. Set in the freezer as you make the filling.
- Prepare the pie filling in a large bowl by mixing the peanut butter, sugar, cream cheese, and milk. I used an electric mixer, but a rubber spatula or wooden spoon would do the trick. Mix until the mixture is completely smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping.
- Remove pie crust from the freezer and layer 1/2 of the pie filling onto the crust. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the crushed Reese's Pieces. Layer with the rest of the pie filling, swirling to make it completely smooth on top. Top with chocolate syrup and remaining Reese's Pieces.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight. 20 minutes before serving, remove from the freezer and let sit out to gently thaw. This made the pie much easier to cut.
- Make ahead tip: Pie can be made ahead, covered tightly, and frozen up to 2-3 days.
Additional Notes:
Feel free to use any candy topping of your choice. Peanut butter cups, crushed cookies, candy bars, coconut, chocolate chips, etc. Layer with caramel sauce, use a graham cracker crust, or use less or more sugar depending on your taste. This is a highly adaptable pie.
1Instead of the whipped topping, you can use 1 cup of fresh whipped cream. Combine 1 cup of heavy cream with 3-4 Tablespoons of sugar and whip on high for 3-4 minutes until you have whipped cream.

Sally, you and I must be twins (or were in some other life!). Peanut butter and chocolate is my absolute kryptonite. Nothing makes me happier than a Reese's or ANYTHING with peanut butter or chocolate (ESPECIALLY when they are together)!! And baking too, so that's even more evidence!! :p
I made this recipe for a friend for our dessert and I couldn't wait to tell you about it! I actually used a chocolate graham cracker crust (I unfortunately was limited when it came to the crust so I was in a pinch and had to buy store bought :(, but next time homemade for sure!!). I used reduced fat cream cheese (I figured it would be creamier and have more flavor) and Fat free cool whip. Also, instead of Reese's Pieces on top. I actually used…wait for it…
CHOCOLATE CHIPS AND PEANUT BUTTER CHIPS! Sally…it was incredible. I even made it so the chocolate was on the outside and the middle was swarmed with those peanut butter chips… like a Reese's! The creaminess of the chips paired wonderfully with the texture of the cake. And of course I drizzled it with Reduced Hershey's Syrup in a beautiful cross-hatch pattern. My friend deemed it a "Christmas Miracle" to give you an idea…so thank you for the wonderful recipe. It is so versatile. You could experiment so much, especially with all the variations! I can't wait to try all of them.
SALLY! I just totally killed this shit. I needed a birthday dessert for my sister and was in a total panic because 1) it was the night before her bday and all the grocery stores were closed and 2) SHE NEVER KNOWS WHAT SHE WANTS. Every year she shrugs at the birthday dessert question. SHRUGS. Like a cycloptic freakshow from another planet! Who doesn't know what dessert they want?! What kind of MUTANT am I related to?
Anyway. I dug into your blog and emerged with this little gem. I had Reese's Pieces on hand (who doesn't?); I had plenty of peanutbutter (because I can't live on chocolate alone [LIES!]); I even had a nearly untouched bag of Oreos (good thing you didn't call for Cheetos, I was down to crumbs in that department). But the only thing I didn't have was Cream Cheese1 DRAT IT ALL!
Luckily, a quick dash to Walgreens (after midnight, asking for cream cheese, in my pajamas, getting the hairy eyeball from the night manager but NEVERMIND) solved that little snag. I whipped up this pie in NO TIME at all. Of course, I ran out of Reese's Pieces and had to crush up some fun size Snickers bars (which I also always have on hand because, hello, it's called: Knowing What You're About) but they worked like a dream within a dream – a harmonious blend of crunch & creamy!
The next day, this pie even outshone the birthday girl and was all ANYONE could talk about. I sat around smirking and accepting compliments and ignoring my sister's black looks of JEALOUSY. Of course, don't you fret about that, once she took a bite, all was immediately forgiven. And then she wouldn't let anyone have a second piece and took the rest of the pie home for herself. (PIG!)
My point is this: You saved me. This glorious, nearly sin-free pie was SCRUMPTIOUS in a way that never existed before. Or, more simply put, YOU ROCK. :o)
Hey Sally!
Getting ready for a dessert competition at work tomorrow (national dessert day!!) and I remembered this gem from a couple years ago. Ha! Anyway, should I double this recipe if I want to make it into bars to feed more people? I was thinking 9×13, but I want to make sure the proportions are correct so it will set up.
Thank you so so much!

As a junior at Georgetown University in 2006, Brynn Marks was in the best shape of her life. She had been training regularly with the softball team in preparation for their inaugural varsity season.
But in February of that year, Marks, who grew up in Havertown and Media and cocaptained the softball team at Episcopal Academy, caught a terrible cold. At night, she couldn't lie flat on her back and was unable to sleep. The team doctor referred her to a pulmonologist at Georgetown University Hospital. After tests, Marks was sent immediately to the ER. The diagnosis: myocarditis, inflammation of the heart.

For those of you who don't know Phil Steele, he provides the most in depth college football preview anywhere. Extremely thorough and highly analytic, he's also consistently the most accurate projector of an upcoming season.
This year, he has Cal finishing 2nd in the P10 and the #9 team overall (taking schedule aside), he also lists the Bears as a dark horse for the national championship.
One interesting part of what Steele does is to take all the rankings (he uses eight different experts) to score players across all the services to arrive at a # by position where they ranked coming out of HS or JC.
He then highlights those that score enough points to be called a highly touted recruit.
For the P10, here's a breakdown of projected starters who are highly touted recruits by team (I will also list star players for each team who were not HT). In descending order.
USC - All but 2 of their 24 starters (including K and P) were HT recruits - Incredible and sadly not surprising - The two who didn't make it? RG Alex Parsons and LT Charles Brown.
Cal - 15 players listed as HT including 8 on defense. Two that didn't make it on D were Tyson Alualu, a 2nd team AP10 selection and Cameron Jordan, a likely AP10 selection this year. Look for the Bears to be awfully tough to score on this year. Schwartz and Guarnero were the only HTs on the OL.
Arizona - 14 players are HT, not including Brooks Reed, 2nd team AP10 DE last year, Cam Nelson, an HM P10 safety and Nicholas Grigsby, an HM AP10 RB. Apparently, Mike Stoops is recruiting well.
Stanford - A surprising 13 HTs seen as starters this year. And that list doesn't include Chris Marinelli, a projected AP10 OL this year, and Clinton Snyder, another potential AP10 LB.
UCLA - 11 players are HTs which doesn't include Ryan Moya, 2nd team AP10 TE, Reggie Carter, 2nd team AP10 LB and Alterraun Verner, 1st team AP10 CB. Bruins should have a very good defense this year.
Arizona State - Ten HTs dot their starting depth chart, not including stud WR Chris McGaha, Dexter Davis, a two time AP10 DE and Omar Bolden, a potential AP10 CB.
Washington - Wow, color me shocked that the Huskies have 9 HTs among their starters. Depth is a HUGE issue for them but this team has some talent. Too bad their schedule is tougher than the Seahawks this year.
Oregon - Fewer big recruits than you might think with only 8 HTs among their projected starters although that misses Masoli at QB, Dickson at TE who was a 2nd team AP10 performer last year, TJ Ward, an HM AP10 safety and Walter Thurmond III, a projected AP10 player this coming season.
Oregon State - As usual, they have very few highly ranked recruits with only 3 HTs, that does not include Lyle Movaeo, their HM AP10 QB, Stephen Paea, an HM AP10 DT and Keaton Kristick, a 2nd team AP10 LB last season.
Washington State - Tied for last with OSU, WSU has only 3 HTs. Unfortunately, unlike the Beavers, the Cougars have no one else who should have been an HT.
This is not a good way to project the upcoming season as lots of recruits don't pan out and many that aren't highly rated become stars. Also, a good number of the ones listed here have very little playing experience and issues like depth, experience, coaching and schedule have to be considered as well. Look for my preseason prognostications later this week.
Still, interesting food for thought in the dog days of June.
Interesting analysis based on Phil Steele talent scoring

The Great Escape Music Store Nashville, October 7, 2010
Her curls peeking out beneath a gray knit beret, Taylor Swift is trying hard to be just another neighborhood regular as she quietly flips through vinyl inside Nashville's The Great Escape record store. She's failing miserably. The smattering of customers shopping this Thursday afternoon are all eyeing her, hovering, waiting for somebody bold to make the first move.
Swift, meanwhile, is holding up two Bruce Springsteen LPs, debating. With its 13 tracks, Working on a Dream (2009) seems to have the edge ("13 songs is lucky," she says), but there's the stark portrait of the Boss on 2007's Magic to consider. "A vinyl album cover can draw you in," she says admiringly. Eventually, she decides to buy them both.
It turns out Swift is obsessed with vinyl LPs. Her record player has a "central, prominent location" in her kitchen, and she toured with a turn- table for dressing-room listening sessions with her band. Swift even insisted that her new album, Speak Now (out Oct. 25), be available as a record. "The vinyl is really important to me," she says, "because I'm so in love with the concept of an album — a collection of memories from your life that you're giving to people. It's a piece of you. Buying them on vinyl is just taking that one step further and acknowledging that albums are important."
On previous visits to the shop's cluttered aisles (sadly, this particular outpost of the five-store chain is closing on Oct. 17), the 20-year-old singer has stocked up on treasures like Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' 1976 self-titled debut. "Tom Petty is on a pedestal for me," she says. "I want to hear him in every possible way I can." Today she breezes through the John Mayer section before making an abrupt stop at Iron & Wine (a.k.a. singer-songwriter Sam Beam). "Ah, this is important," she says. "I love him. Certain voices make me feel like it would be a really cool soundtrack to your life, all the time."
Then, as Swift heads for the Ryan Adams section, one fan can contain himself no more and attempts a furtive snapshot with his phone. With impeccable timing, Swift flashes a smile just before the click. "Did you catch me?" he asks sheepishly. "I did," she says. "But don't worry about it." She turns back to Adams, adding his 2007 album, Easy Tiger, to her pile. "His music is so emotional, and that works so well on a record player."
Onlookers are now advancing one by one, seeking autographs, pictures, even decorating advice ("Which album cover would you hang in your room — Journey or Barbra Streisand?" Her answer: Barbra, due to its neutral color). It's all met with unfailing politeness.
Finally Swift makes her way to the register with her selections. But there's still one more record to drool over: her own. Right after leaving the store, she's presented with a vinyl copy of Speak Now, which she's seeing for the very first time. As she runs her hands over the smooth, glossy cover, Swift is overjoyed. "It's like Christmas," she says. "Oh my God, whoa! This is so crazy. It feels unreal. I'm so happy about this."

Rich Ricci considers investment in new UK exchange
Rich Ricci, a former chief executive of Barclays' corporate and investment bank and once right-hand man of the UK lender's chief executive Bob Diamond, is in talks to take a minority stake in a new London trading platform, Financial News has learnt.
Ricci is one of several high net worth individuals to have held talks about investing in Aquis Exchange, a pan-European equities trading platform set to launch later this year, according to two people familiar with the situation.
Diamond is also understood to be in talks to invest in Aquis, as first reported by Financial News earlier this month.
Ricci earned £18 million in deferred remuneration before he left Barclays earlier this year, according to a report by the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards in June.
Aquis was founded last autumn by trading industry veteran Alasdair Haynes, a former chief executive of trading venue Chi-X Europe. The exchange is seeking approval with the UK's Financial Conduct Authority and plans to launch in October.
Haynes declined to comment. Ricci could not be reached for comment.
Barclays said in April this year that Ricci would be leaving the bank at the end of June. Diamond stepped down as Barclays chief executive in July last year.
Aquis intends to adopt a novel, set monthly subscription pricing model in a bid to bring renewed competition to European equity markets.
The Warsaw Stock Exchange today became a strategic investor in Aquis, taking a 30% stake.

Akron @ UCF: Players To Watch
Football is a team game, but having your best player do well never hurts. These are the two guys that will have to shoulder a good part of the load if their team is to win tonight in Bright House Stadium.
Jawon Chisholm is Akron's most productive returning player on offense. The 6'-1'', 206 pound Junior running back out of Harrisburg, PA. is a physical runner. Chisholm averaged 5.3 yards per carry and rushed for 953 yards and five touchdowns in 2012. He is a complete back who can also make plays in the passing game. He had 38 catches in 2012 for two touchdowns. He should be used pretty often against UCF to take pressure off of QB Kyle Pohl in his first career start.
[caption id="attachment_88878" align="alignleft" width="240"] Blake Bortles is looking to start building on last season's success[/caption]
Blake Bortles is coming into 2013 with a load of expectations. He had a great first year as the full-time starter for the Knights and is currently on a streak of 174 pass attempts without an interception. Bortles has the talent around him to make some noise this year and build upon his impressive numbers last season. UCF return their top four receivers from 2012. Now, Bortles will be asked to not just play well but to take the next step and become great. The season opener against Akron will be his first chance to move in the right direction towards that goal.

Not as we had planned!!
Today we had our first and not our last experience at a Russian court. Chad and I were asked questions for almost two hours. After this the court realized that a document required for our little man was not present. Therefore, court was postponed until Monday afternoon. When this document is received everthing should be fine. This means we will be staying in Astrakhan about a week longer than was originally planned. This brought our spirits down because we greatly miss our Sadie and our family. We would like to be home as soon as possible. Our prayer for now is that the court will be able to acquire this document by Monday. We are staying in the hotel room for the night. We walked to a grocery and bought some snacks for dinner. We purchased the items for peanut butter and jelly sandwichs. Or at least we think we did.

Animal cruelty investigators are preparing charges against two city women accused this week in some of the largest hoarding cases in recent memory.
George Bengal, director of law enforcement for the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said he expects cruelty charges against Olga Federov, of Olney. Officials seized 90 animals from her house on Tuesday, including dogs, cats, chinchillas and pigeons.
A South Philadelphia woman, not yet identified, will be charged in connection with keeping an astounding 85 Chihuahuas and Chihuahua-mix dogs at her home on Earp Street near 8th, Bengal said. Two cats and two dead dogs also were found there in a raid Wednesday, he said.

Leading a consortium of institutions, the University of Virginia (UVA) School of Medicine has been awarded $14.4 million in federal backing from NIH's National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) to find better ways to predict which patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are at the greatest risk of heart failure or sudden death. In addition to the NHLBI funding, Siemens Healthcare has agreed to provide support to the project.
The five-year study will follow 2,750 patients for up to five years at 35 to 40 sites in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, including the U.K., Italy, and Germany. UVA's Christopher M. Kramer, M.D., co-principal investigator of the project, will oversee the North American locations, while Kramer's co-principal investigator, Stefan Neubauer, M.D., of Oxford University, will oversee the European sites. UVA will serve as the lead site for the trial.
Dr. Kramer said in a statement that the goal of the study is to develop better risk predictors, with the long-term goal of enabling more focused therapies. The study will reportedly have three major focuses: imaging, with MRI of the heart to enable doctors to better map and measure the amount of heart thickening, scarring, and fibrosis; genetics, to detect genetic patterns that could be associated with increased risk; and biomarkers, to determine if there are measurable biological indicators in the blood that predict risk.
"Findings from this research could lead to new ways to prevent or treat these serious, sometimes life-threatening conditions," said Michael Lauer, M.D., director of the Division of Cardiovascular Sciences at NHLBI, in a statement.

We stayed at the Best Western Executive Inn the night before the cruise in Seattle. It had nice rooms, and was just a block away from the Space Needle and monorail. The only negative was the soundproofing of the rooms, but it wasn't bad. The staff at the front desk booked a town car for us for 11 AM the following morning at $6/person. A cab might have been cheaper, but the town car was ready and waiting for us when we checked out, and things went very smoothly.
From looking at other posts here, we decided to show up at the pier early - we were unloaded from the town car by 11:15. That was a great suggestion, as we breezed through entry with very few people in line. The waiting room to board the ship had a decent amount of people, but just as we settled into seats to wait, they started calling group numbers to board the ship. The whole process was very efficient, and within 20 minutes of showing up we were sipping the complimentary champagne and orange juice once on board. The Garden Cafe wasn't crowded when we got on, so we grabbed some food and explored the ship. Our cabins were ready at 2:15, and our luggage was delivered around 4:15.Our cabins had balconies, and that especially came in handy when cruising Glacier Bay later in the week. There was adequate closet and shelf space, plus 3 drawers, a mini-refrigerator (stocked with items for purchase, but you could squeeze things in there or temporarily remove their items with no complaints). Luggage fit conveniently under the bed, and the room did have a hair dryer (one less thing to pack). As others have mentioned, the little dial outside the door is helpful to let the cabin stewards know when you don't want to be disturbed, or are ready for the cabin to be made up or turned down for the night. We called the front desk shortly after getting in the cabin to let them know that the safe was closed so we couldn't get in and reset it; they said they would send someone, but to bear with them as it was hectic while everyone was getting settled, which was understandable. But someone came within 10 minutes, so that was quite reasonable.
As for restaurants, the Garden Cafe (main buffet restaurant) usually had a good selection of food, and if you don't see something you care for, just browse the various stations. Our group was a little apprehensive from some of the things we read here, but for the most part the food really was fine, and plentiful. The Garden Cafe could get really crowded, so here are some tips: check the Great Outdoors Cafe in the back for additional seating (it's outdoors, so weather may be an issue) plus its own buffet line, or if it's breakfast or lunch, you can also sit in La Cucina, which is on the other side of the ship from the Garden Cafe and also connected to the Great Outdoors Cafe. I thought I remembered seeing that La Cucina was a free restaurant in previous reviews, but it's now a $10 fee per person. We ate at Mambo's (the only free restaurant to accept reservations), plus the Summer Palace and Indigo (also free), and the Garden Cafe and Great Outdoors buffets. Service was a little slow at the Summer Palace on lobster night, but there was a large crowd and the servers were working hard to keep things moving as quickly as possible, so that wasn't a problem for us. The restaurant is a nice large room with windows on 3 sides, so that allowed us to enjoy the scenery of Alaska.Ports/Excursions: JUNEAU - We chose the Mendenhall Glacier & Gardens tour. It was barely over 50 degrees and drizzling that day, so we were glad we brought warm clothes and rain gear. The plantings at the gardens were for the most part unremarkable, other than those that were in the upside down trees (prominent in photos of the gardens). But the steep roads cut into the mountainside allowed great views of the forest, and there was a nice view from the top of the mountain, so it was worthwhile in that respect. Mendenhall Glacier was good to see, despite the dreary weather.
We definitely had a good time, and the views of Alaska were stunning. We're definitely glad we did excursions while at the ports so that we could see more of Alaska. The food was fine and plentiful, and the chocoholic buffet one night was a treat. Again, if you require lots of personal attention, maybe freestyle cruising on NCL isn't the best match, but we had no problems finding decent food when we wanted it. In my opinion, service was fine; there were over 2300 of us to be served, and the staff worked hard to accommodate us. Two of us chose the self-disembarkation, where you leave when you want and take your own bags. We left at what we thought would be a peak time (9 am). We were off the ship in 15 minutes, quickly got a cab, and were at the airport at 9:45.

TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Rick Scott on Wednesday proposed eliminating the sales tax paid by manufacturers when they purchase equipment, part of his ongoing effort to cajole companies to move to Florida and get those already here to add workers.
There already is a sales tax exemption for new equipment but to qualify companies must prove they've increased their "productive output" by 5 percent after buying the equipment. Until Jan. 1, they had to show they'd increased output by 10 percent, but lawmakers reduced the requirement during last year's legislative session at the urging of Scott.
TALLAHASSEE — Consumer confidence among Floridians was unchanged in December, down a bit from a peak in the fall, the University of Florida reported Thursday.
The UF Survey Research Center at the university's Bureau of Economic and Business Research said conservatives who were unhappy with the November presidential election outcome generally remain gloomy about the economy, while those who supported President Barack Obama are more upbeat.
TALLAHASSEE — Space Coast Republican Steve Crisafulli finds himself unexpectedly as next in line to be House speaker after the GOP caucus unanimously chose him to replace the defeated Rep. Chris Dorworth in the line of succession.
Crisafulli, of Merritt Island, was chosen Monday by the caucus to be speaker-designate in the coming two years, which means he'll follow incoming House Speaker Will Weatherford in November of 2014, assuming Crisafulli remains in office and Republicans, as expected, keep control of the chamber.
PALM HARBOR — For years, Medicare was part of the "third rail" of Florida politics — the untouchable subject in a state with so many elderly voters.
For the Romney-Ryan ticket, it apparently won't be.
TALLAHASSEE — University of Florida President Bernie Machen on Friday announced he plans to retire next year, though he said he wants to remain at the university as a professor.
Machen, who became president in early 2004, said at the university's Board of Trustees meeting that he will remain at the helm until the board completes a search for his successor. Trustees Chairman David Brown said that search would start this summer, with a goal of finding a successor before the end of 2013.
Machen's contract would have been up at the end of 2013.
Federal officials have asked the state to tell Washington by today whether it intends to continue notifying some voters that they have been flagged as potentially ineligible because their names match names on a separate state database of possible non-citizens.
The effort has come in for criticism, including from local elected elections supervisors, because a number of the people flagged for possible removal have been able to prove their right to vote, showing they either are natural-born or naturalized citizens.
TALLAHASSEE -- No one acted with any criminal intent, but better communication, fixed signs and more attention a trooper who warned that smoke could quickly roll back on to the interstate might have prevented a massive fatal crash on smoky I-75 in January, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement said Thursday.
TALLAHASSEE — While there's no consensus on whether the state's "stand your ground" self defense law may apply in the Trayvon Martin case, and not everyone agrees on whether it's bad or good law, a consensus is emerging that it may not be as clear as it could be as to what it allows and doesn't.
As the 2005 law has come under intense scrutiny in the wake of the Sanford shooting of the unarmed 17-year-old Martin, veteran lawmakers haven't been able to agree even on what the measure allows, which, the bill's sponsor acknowledges may point to a need for clarification.
Unemployment in Florida dropped to 9.6 percent in January, down from 9.9 percent in December and more than a full percentage point lower than it was a year ago, the Department of Economic Opportunity announced Tuesday.
TALLAHASSEE - A legislative proposal to privatize about 30 prisons in most of the southern part of the state is headed for the Senate floor after a vote in the Budget Committee that angered prison guards who feel they're not being heard.
The proposal was put into law as part of last year's budget, to be later thrown out by a court.
The state plans to close seven prisons, including a major institution at Raiford, as part of a consolidation plan that's possible because of declining numbers of prisoners, the Department of Corrections said Thursday.
Four work camps will also close. The facilities will be shut down by July 1, the agency said.

The scrub jays of Santa Cruz Island really love a good peanut.
This Jay Is Evolving in a Very, Very Weird Way. As she gathered more and more data on different populations of the island scrub jays around Santa Cruz Island, Katie Langin, a biologist at Colorado State University, had a revelation: The birds, members of one single species, had split into two varieties in different habitats. Ever since Darwin and his famous finches, biologists have thought that in order for a species to diverge into two new species, the two populations had to be physically isolated. Those finches, for instance, each live on a different Galapagos island, where their special circumstances have resulted in specialized bill shapes. Yet the two varieties of island scrub jay (they haven't technically speciated—yet) live on the same tiny island. If they wanted to meet each other for a brunch of acorns and/or pine nuts and perhaps later some mating, they could just fly right over. [more inside]

Marginalia and Annotations online
In literature, there are two key sorts of annotations: marginalia, or the notes jotted down in the margins by the reader, and additional information formally provided in expanded editions of a text, and you can find a bit of both online. Annotated Books Online is an on-line interactive archive of early modern annotated books, where researchers can share digitized documents and collaborate on translations. For insight into a single author's notes, Melville's Marginalia provides just that. For annotations with additional information, The Thoreau Reader provides context for Walden (linked previously), The Maine Woods, and other writings. Then there's the mostly annotated edition Ulysses, analysis of Joseph Conrad's Nostromo, and the thoroughly annotated US constitution (twentieth amendment linked previously).

Five Feet of Books
"During his days as Harvard's influential president, Dr. Charles W. Eliot made a frequent assertion: If you were to spend just 15 minutes a day reading the right books, a quantity that could fit on a five-foot shelf, you could give yourself a proper liberal education. Publisher P. F. Collier and Son loved the idea and asked Eliot to compile and edit the right collection of works. The result: a 51-volume series of classic works from world literature published in 1909 called Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf, which would later be called The Harvard Classics." (Via) [more inside]
Early copper coins from an African trading empire found in Australia
The history of people finding Australia goes a little something like this: Aboriginal Australians separated from a migration out of Africa into Asia about 70,000 years, and Australian archaeological sites have proof of humans going back 50,000 years. Jump ahead to 1606, when there were two European voyages that made landfall and charted portions of Australia. First was Willem Janszoon's voyage in late February or early March of that year, and then Luís Vaz de Torres came a few months later. Abel Jansen Tasman was the first European to come across Tasmania, and between 1642 and 1646, his crew charted the Australian coast, more or less (Google auto-translation, original page). Then of course, there was James Cook's 1770 voyage. With all these dates in mind, how did five copper coins from an African sultanate that collapsed in the early 1500s (Google books) end up on an uninhabited island in the Northern Territory of present-day Australia?

The Darwin-Hooker Letters
The Cambridge University Library houses the world's largest collection of Charles Darwin's letters: more than 9,000 of the 15,000 letters he is known to have written and received in his lifetime. They've been posting them online since 2007 (previously on MeFi), in the Darwin Correspondence Project, where we can now read and search the full texts of more than 7,500 letters, and find information on 7,500 more -- all for free. This weekend, they added nearly all of the Darwin-Hooker letters: Over 1400 pieces of correspondence between Darwin and his closest friend, botanist Joseph Hooker. [more inside]
Evolution: Maybe It's Not Just for the Fittest Anymore
Is it time to put natural selection in its place? Jello Biafra once famously wrote that "If evolution is outlawed, only outlaws will evolve." But while it likely comes as no surprise to specialists working in the field or to those who've been following developments in evolutionary biology closely, there's an emerging view among experts that Darwin's view of natural selection as the primary driver of speciation and evolutionary change may be incorrect or at least drastically overstated. It's long been understood that non-adaptive evolutionary mechanisms like "genetic drift" and random mutation also play non-trivial roles in evolutionary processes, but a recent study (link to abstract with full-text PDF available) casts new doubts on the primary role of natural selection, finding that "Neutral models, in which genetic change arises through random variation without fitness differences have proven remarkably successful in describing observed patterns of biodiversity."

Today Cambridge University offered a complete free digital archive of the personal papers of Sir Isaac Newton, including the Principa Mathematica and his first published research paper. The archives join a number of efforts to open original works of scientific greatness to the world:
- Charles Darwin's entire personal library, complete with annotations and handwritten marginalia, digitized, indexed, and searchable, part of the Biodiversity Heritage Library (previously)
- Mapping The Republic of Letters and Electronic Enlightenment, wonderful sites showing the communication and social connections of Enlightenment writers.

Digitized Darwin
More than 300 heavily-annotated books from Charles Darwin's personal library have been digitized in a collaboration between Cambridge University, which holds the collection, and the Biodiversity Heritage Library, a project that has so far digitized nearly 50,000 titles from the natural sciences. And if you're looking for what Darwin wrote, rather than what he read, the University of Oklahoma has digitized the first edition of each of his 22 books.
The life and times of Tom Eisner, father of chemical ecology, photographer, musician and champion of environmental and human rights
Thomas Eisner, a Cornell biologist best known for his extensive work (PDF) with chemical ecology, passed away on Friday, March 25th, 2011. Eisner was more than a "bug guy," he was one of the "original guiding lights" in the study of chemical interactions of organisms, most often focusing on insects. He also was a photographer, pianist and occasional conductor (PDF), and conservation activist. More on his fascinating life inside. [more inside]

"This is a subject of but small importance; and I know not whether it will interest any readers, but it has interested me."-C. D. Quick... what was Darwin's most popular book? If you answered The Origin of Species, you were wrong. It was his last book, published the year before he died, The Formation of Vegetable Mould Through the Action of Worms With Observation of Their Habits (illustrations [first presented 1 Nov. 1837, as noted in the record of the Royal Geological Society]). Darwin noted when he was beginning his career that worms churned up soil, causing heavier objects to sink slowly in the soil. He noted that all soil had passed through the alimentary duct of worms. It started off a fashion of cultivating worms by gardeners that continues to the present day. -We recently learned that we owe an element of our unique cerebral cortex, or pallium to our marine worm ancestors. (In amphibians, the cerebrum includes archipallium, paleopallium and some of the basal nuclei. Reptiles first developed a neopallium, which continued to develop in the brains of more recent species to become the neocortex of mammals." [&, ultimately, you and you and we]) [more inside]

The low-down on recycling in Albuquerque
By Christie Chisholm
Looking at a glass mountain from a distance, it's nearly impossible to tell it's not the real thing. You almost swear you see piñon trees. But, upon further inspection, the tiny pulverized stones of blue, brown and green become apparent, and the way they glimmer in the sun is certainly not like any typical topography.

A Living Wage
The city councilor for district six rejoices that the minimum wage initiative has made it onto the October ballot
By Martin Heinrich
In Albuquerque today, there's cause to celebrate. Just last week, the Albuquerque City Clerk verified the 13,393 valid signatures necessary to place a minimum wage initiative on the October ballot. It is worth noting that this is approximately four times the number of valid signatures needed to run for governor of NM. In fact, because the bar is so high, this marks the first time a city ordinance has ever been successfully placed on the ballot by the citizen petition process. Congratulations.

Odds & Ends
By Devin D. O'Leary
Dateline: England—When 59-year-old Melvyn Reed woke up from a triple-bypass heart operation earlier this summer, he was greeted by his loving wife and his loving wife and his loving wife. Obviously, the British bigamist didn't count on all three of his spouses turning up at his bedside at the same time. Reed had apparently tried to stagger the hospital visits of his wives, but a scheduling conflict ended with all three of them in the hospital at once. British media reports say that, upon realizing something was amiss, the wives held a meeting in the parking lot and learned they were all married to the same man. A spokeswoman for the Crown Prosecution Service confirmed that Reed, a company director from Kettering in central England, turned himself in to Wimbledon police on May 12 and confessed to being a double bigamist. He pleaded guilty to two charges of bigamy on July 19 and was given a suspended sentence of four months in prison and ordered to pay 70 pounds ($126). According to Metropolitan Police, Reed married his first wife, Jean Grafton, in 1966, then left without divorcing her. He went on to marry Denise Harrington in 1998, then married Lyndsey Hutchinson in 2003. British media have widely reported that Reed recently moved back in with his first wife. Harrington and Hutchinson had sought advice on getting their marriages annulled, but lawyers have advised the women that their marriages were never valid.

Skip to comments.So Rep. Murtha Accused American Marines of Cold-Blooded Murder... So What?
Posted on 05/17/2006 5:58:24 PM PDT by Coop

But which chicken came first?LOL
Hi Boazo, guess Murtha originated it all, lol.
Hi dixiechick, sorry I'm missing some of your pings. I was not on the computer most of the day and got WAY behind.
It's not a problem, so don't worry one bit about it.
I know ALL about getting behind. ;o)
Reminder bump
Reminder bump
Thanks for the reminder Coop and I'm not forgetting...Never!
MURTHA: That's exactly what happened.
I missed the part where he was an eyewitness to the events...
Murtha is a cold-blooded traitor bump.
He really is quite the superhero, isn't he?
Spreading-the-word-and-reminding ping. I've donated to the Irey campaign. Win or lose in November, I'll be glad I did. But we can win and I hope you'll consider helping.
Have I told you lately that I love you?
BTW, lil' sis mentioned the other day that she wants to make some more cookies for ya! )
If it really upsets you, what are you going to do about it? Post a few angry remarks on a thread (status quo), or do something meaningful?
What's my definition of meaningful?
Speak the only language most of these politicians understand - support Murtha's opponent Diana Irey
Or as a wise man once said, money talks bulls*it walks.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll do my part.
Thanks, Jim! Coop has been a tireless advocate for Diana Irey on FR. When we boot Murtha, it'll be due in part to the unheralded patriot netroots.
Good ping, thanks very much.
Awwww, you're too sweet. Please, send the cookies! The delivery vehicles is warmed up and ready to go.
Thanks for your support. Would you like to be on the Irey/Murtha ping list? Fairly low volume, and since I like you - no charge! ;-)
Sure, sign me up!
You're on the ping list, thanks much!
His boots have been on the ground. He's already stood on her podium.
He has been doing more than posting. He's already participated in one of her events.
Just had to post that little bit of sarcasm. Thought it would be interesting if there were actually people here on FR who thought Murtha was an a-okay guy, and would respond to the post...
Okay, group hug! ((( )))
I've only run across one so far. :-)
I don't do group hug!
Unless ther Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders are involved, that is.
No. Just a dirty old man.
OH That was a good one!
Reminder bump
Not forgetting Bump.
Thanks for the reminder about this thread, Coop. I'll post the link on the new Victory thread.

An introduction to editing xorg.conf
On Display
Understanding xorg.conf makes it easy to tweak your graphical display setup.
Only a few years ago, if you wanted a graphical display on your Linux system, an xorg.conf file, or its predecessor XFree86-Config, was a necessity. Today, hotplugging and the XRandR extension have made screen display automatic on most Linux systems. However, now and then – just often enough that you feel a sense of betrayal – a keyboard or a video card might not be detected, or the maximum resolution for a video card isn't being used. When such problems appear, you can usually solve them by creating and editing an xorg.conf file on your system. You might also want to use an xorg.conf file to make specific settings the default.
xorg.conf is not the only way to set up your graphical display. You can also set it up using the Xorg or XRandR command or via your environment. But, because xorg.conf is a well-organized text file that you can edit when logged in as root user, it is by far the easiest way to make adjustments. Just make sure you back up any existing xorg.conf file so that you can easily recover from any mistakes.

This makes a wonderful smoothie. I went really heavy on the strawberries and used peach instead of Mango nectar. The result was wonderful! Thank you SQ!
Wow...this is sooo good. After picking up some Mango Nectar at Costco, went looking for a recipe that incorporated this juice. I didn't have any mango's in the house and so was very happy to come across yours that incorporated strawberries. I used frozen and so omitted the icecubes per your suggestion. I doubled this recipe as i was sharing. Thanks for a yummy keeper Susie!~
Excellent smoothie! I used whole frozen strawberries, so didn't need to add any ice. I also added one good heaping tablespoon of wheat germ before blending. I used mango this time, but love apricot nectar, so will try that too. Thanks for a keeper!
This was very tasty. I used fresh strawberries and a no-sugar vanilla creme yogurt. I also added a few more ice cubes than the recipe called for. Made a great breakfast treat.
This was yummy! I used plain yogurt and added some vanilla. Thanks Susie!

It's not that the game was hard, it's just that the Big Daddy's are difficult to kill on this difficulty setting. One method that I developed for killing the Big Daddy's was to shoot a couple of proximity mines around the big daddy, then hit them directly with a regular mine or heat-seeking mine. It takes away about half of their health or more depending on how close you get the mines and also how many you laid out.
Also, sometimes I'd create a path of proximity mines that they'll run into whenever they try to slide/rush up to hit you. Explosive shotgun rounds are also very affective on the hard difficulty setting. Those are some things that I did to help me make it through the game and get the Brass Balls achievement, so if you're feeling stuck or having difficulty beating the Big Daddy's for that achievement, you may want to try that method and see how it works out for you.
