NASA's two-year mission dedicated to studying carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere lifts off from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. just before 3 a.m. Pacific Time on July 2, 2014.

The effects of global warming are frequently projected decades into the future, but two recent reports -- one from theU.S. Global Change Research Program
and the otherfrom the U.N.
-- put into sharp focus visible consequences of our warming planet. An increase in temperature, extreme weather, loss of ice and rising sea level are just a few of changes we can measure right now. Let's take a look at some of the most concerning trends.BLOG: War Of The Words: Climate Change Or Global Warming?

Only a few extinctions are attributed to climate change, reports the IPCC, but climate change that occurred much more slowly, over millions of years, caused major ecosystem shifts and species extinctions.

Excess CO2 is dissolving in the ocean and decreasing the pH of seawater. The ocean is about 30 percent more acidic than it was in pre-industrial times. More acidity in the oceans makes it harder for animals to form calcium carbonate shells and skeletons and erodes coral reefs.11 Health Threats from Climate Change

The probability of a Sandy-like storm deluging New York, New Jersey and other parts of the East Coast has nearly doubled compared to 1950, according to the American Meteorological Society. Even weaker storms will be more damaging now than they were 10 years ago because of rising sea levels. Superstorm Sandy cost the nation $65 billion, according to the 2014 National Climate Assessment, and 2012's Hurricane Isaac cost $2.3 billion.

The global sea level rises along with the temperature for two major reasons. For one, heat causes water to expand, which causes the existing water to take up more space and encroach on the coast. At the same time, ice at the poles and in glaciers melts and increases the amount of water in the oceans.PHOTOS: Melting Glaciers

The most recent IPCC report states with "very high confidence" that current climate-related extremes like heat waves, droughts, floods, cyclones and wildfires are showing that countries around the world, at all development levels, are significantly unprepared. The American Meteorological Society estimates that approximately 35 percent of the extreme heat in the eastern United States between March and May 2012 resulted from human activities' effects on climate. The AMS warned that deadly heat waves will become four times more likely in the north-central and northeastern United States as the planet continues to warm.NASA: Global Warming Goes On
NASA Launches Carbon-Tracking Satellite
A long-awaited NASA satellite to make the first precise, global measurements of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere reached orbit on Wednesday, setting the stage for a more detailed understanding of the planet's changing climate -- and if any mitigation efforts are working.
The satellite, called Orbiting Carbon Observatory, or OCO, blasted off atop a Delta 2 rocket from a fog-shrouded Vandenberg Air Force Base in California at 2:56 a.m. PDT/5:56 a.m. EDT. An hour later, it was released from the rocket's second stage.
Over the next few weeks, OCO will fly itself to join a train of polar-orbiting environmental satellites circling about 440 miles above Earth.
Launch Of Carbon-Hunting Satellite Reset For Wednesday
NASA expected to have OCO collecting data five years ago, but the original spacecraft was lost when its launcher's payload shroud failed to open.
"Seldom do we get a second chance to be able to do a mission like this," Geoffery Yoder, a NASA deputy associate administrator, told reporters at a post-launch news conference.
Orbital Sciences Corp built both the original OCO and the replacement, but lost the launch contract to United Launch Alliance.
An initial attempt to fly OCO-2 on Tuesday was scuttled less than a minute before liftoff because of a problem with the launch pad's water system. Technicians replaced a faulty valve and the rocket blasted off right on schedule early Wednesday.
"There was pure joy ... at spacecraft sep (separation). I can tell you that," launch director Tim Dunn said in a post-launch interview on NASA Television.
NEWS: NASA to Tally-Up Earth's Carbon From Orbit
The satellite will be positioned to overfly the same point on Earth at the same time of day every 16 days, allowing scientists to ferret out patterns in carbon dioxide levels on a seasonal basis.
That should help unravel a long-standing mystery about how about half the carbon dioxide that is put into the atmosphere is reabsorbed by forests and oceans.
The trend seems to hold even in light of the increased amounts of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere from fossil fuel burning and other human activities, said project scientist Michael Gunson, with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif.
"We still aren't quite sure ... which are the key processes involved here," Gunson told reporters before launch.
"Trying to get to a point of understanding the details of those processes will give us some insight into the future and what's likely to happen over next decades, even if we continue to consume more and more fossil fuels and emit more and more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere," Gunson said.
NEWS: Carbon Dioxide Hits Record High in April
NASA intends to freely and widely distribute OCO data in hopes that research organizations will use it to make better climate predictions.
"We'd also hope that policy-makers might use some of this information to, for example, start to take a look at the impact of some of the emission-reduction activities that go or, or deforestation and understanding what's happening globally," added OCO program executive Betsy Edwards, at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC.
Scientists hope to be releasing the first measurements from OCO by early next year.

Hmmm ... this doesn't looks like, as if X-Plane was loading anything like KELN. Thats not a good sign. Are you sure, that in the KELN folder, your directory structure is ok?
Ahh, and one more thing - I did forget to mention it anywhere. If you want the KSEA area at HD Mesh quality, then you have to move the Demo area "/KSEA Demo Terrain" BELOW(!) the HD Mesh (otherwise you get default quality mesh in that small area)! I don't think, this is making the mess with KELN ... but it might be ...
Looking at the file structure seems to have solved the mystery. As stated above I tent to like to rename folders in my custom scenery file to coincide with the Airports IACO Code. It looks like when I did this I created the problem by unzipping downloaded scenery directly to those renamed folders. The author of this airport (and most likely the others) had all of the earth nava data etc. contained in their own folder. By unzipping directly into the folder I created I inadvertantly made the authors folder a sub folder which prevented the scenery from being loaded. Hope my mistake can prevent others from making the same...Go to the full post

Mountains view worth getting out of bed for!
The Kasbah du Toubkal is an extraordinary venture, the product of an imaginative Berber and European partnership. There is a shared belief that the beauty of the Toubkal National Park should be accessible to all who respect it. To this end the Kasbah has been transformed using traditional methods, from the home of a Feudal Caid into an unprecedented heaven; one that provides a variety of accommodation and event possibilities to meet differing requirements.
The Kasbah is a welcoming environment for those seeking comfortable mountain refuge, and for those who wish for superb rooms in a stunning setting. The Kasbah du Toubkal is not a hotel in the traditional sense, it is more an extension of the hospitality that stems from the home of the Berbers who run it
Unique Quality: Rooms:
14, including a house with three ensuite double rooms.
€150–€760, including breakfast. Two night minimum stay.
Check-out: Midday.
Are basic but adequate. Traditional outdoor hammam, Berber-style, with a cauldron of piping water.
Families will have fun taking over the Garden House as it has three rooms which link together.
All invoices incur a five per cent charge that benefits the Village Association, whose community projects have provided locals with such as their own ambulance. Transfers to/from Marrakech (60km) cost €80. Mule-trekking can be arranged; €15 half day.
Hotel restaurant:
Food is very typical Moroccan cuisine, with a lunchtime set menu for €15, and €20 at dinner.
Top table:
The top terrace in summer; snuggled up by the fire in winter.
Last orders:
Lunch, 13h30; dinner, 20h30.
Room service:
No room service, but mint tea, coffee and soft drinks are available throughout the day.
Hotel bar:
Berber tradition dictates that no alcohol is served on the premises. You can bring your own with you so long as you're happy to serve yourselves.
Directions: Imlil Region,but you don't have the choice to make the way yourself! there is a transfere service from the airport,and it's 80Euro for this 60Kms montain destination .
Riad Azzar in Medina
This small riad is so charming, and very tastefully decorated with Moroccan details. At night lanterns are lit around the courtyard's small dipping pool. The pool is also softly lit in emerald tones. When I took a dip, there were even rose pedals, and towels conveniently placed nearby. The roof terrace is a wonderful place to chill out at the end of the day, and offers a great view of the other roof tops in the medina. I loved to be up there for the last call to prayer, and occassionally caught the sillouette of someone on another roof in what looked like a state of prayer or meditation.
Riad Azzar really gives a lot of importance to detail with the roses in the rooms, and bathrooms, fresh orange juice everyday, soft music in the parlor, and wine upon request. Fatima's cooking is also incredible. I recommend at least one dinner at the riad.
The owners were not there when I visited but the staff was so helpful and upbeat. I was able to communicate with them in my limited French. They set me up with two guides while I was there, one for a morning tour of the medina, and the other for a day tour of the Berber
villages in the Atlas Mountains. Both guides were great.
Although the riad is very close to Jemaa El-Fna but still hard to find because the maps of the
medina are so poor. I'd advise that you have someone from the riad met you in the square so you don't spend an hour lost in the medina like I did. I would tell any woman traveling alone to Morocco for the first time, as I did, to stay here because, once you get your barings, you will realize how great the location is.
Unique Quality: The roof terrace, the dipping pool, the authentic Moroccan food, the many services the riad
provides, including massages, location, location, location!
Directions: Medina, close to Jamaa El Fna and the souks
Lovely Kasbah
After the hussle and bussle of the Marrakech Medina, Kasbah Tiwaline in the outlying Palmerie district is a very welcome Oasis. Run by Alain and Zara, it provides 3 Kasbahs each containing 3 spacious and fabulously decorated suites (no cooking or refridgeration facilities). Each Kasbah has its own pool and shaded sitting area.
Fabulous food (esp vegetarian) is provided with most of vegetables coming from the Kasbah's own organic garden (the best food we had in all the time we were in Morocco!) Beer, wine and soft drinks are available from the bar.
Zara arranged a Camel riding 'expedition' for us which was well worth doing (15 euros per camel per hour).
The Kasbah is about 15/20 minutes by taxi (10 - 15 euros) from the Jemma el Fna square in the Medina.
We would definitely recommend and hope to have a return visit soon!
Directions: In the Palmerie district outside the City.
Dar Les Cigognes Boutique Hotel Marrakech
This hotel is one of the most sumptuous and unexpected finds in Marrakech. Located a babouche toss from the Palais Badi, and directly opposite the Royal Palace, it has 11 sumptuous rooms and suites, restaurant serving delicious Moroccan delicacies, a hammam and spa (massages to die for), and roof terrace with one of the best views in all of Marrakech. The beds are enormous, and fantastically comfortable, with plum pillows and high quality sheets, the bathtubs are enormous, and service is exquisite. Rare for a riad hotel, it has street access, making it easy to find, and to come and go in a taxi, which, is a huge advantage.
Unique Quality: The view from the roof terrace and roof garden at sunset onto the palace ramparts, with views of the snow-capped Atlas mountains in the distance, and the row after row of storks in their nests resting precariously on the crenellations of the parapets in the Palace just opposite are magical. The Koutoubia mosque minaret, lit up in the fading purples of the night sky, sun setting just behind, is something we will never forget. Every room at the hotel is different too, each designed with real flair around a theme representing a different part of Moroccan heritage: from French inspired Art Deco to Berber weaving patters, or the ethereal carved stucco that also adorns the palaces. A not to miss hotel!
Directions: rue de Berima is the street that runs alongside the Royal Palace and the Badi Palace. The hotel is on this street, its discreet door faces directly the door of the Royal Palace.

More complicated than regular adsense. But allows you to show house ads and ads from outside networks etc. in addition to regular adsense
Allows adsense to compete against other networks for ad space
Slightly slower ad serving than regular adsense

what would active publishers want there? listen to the ole pr bull?
You are misunderstanding what DoubleClick for Publishers is.
Furthermore, there are no freeloaders in a system where publishers can set a minimum CPM floor.
That's not necessarily a Google problem; image ads do extremely well for me. I've tested and tested, because it goes against what everyone always says here, but nevertheless, my image ads kill.
It may depend on niche

There is still no equivalent of a rail season ticket for part-time workers. This means that part-time workers must buy expensive one-off tickets, or season tickets which they then waste on the days they don't work.
In October 2013 the last Government finally announced there would be a trial of flexible rail tickets for part time workers on a busy London commuter route. Almost two years on and the millions of part time and flexible workers who commute to work by rail are still waiting whilst the Government and the rail industry drag their feet.
Our labour market has changed and part time work is on the increase. There are now well over 8 million part time workers in the UK, 4 million who work flexibly and over 750,000 on zero hours contracts and yet there is almost zero flexibility in our fares and ticketing system to make rail travel affordable for this vital army of workers.
Signatures so far
This is not just a economic issue but also a gender equality issue, as 75% of part time workers are women.
Please sign our petition and tell the Government and the rail industry to stop dragging their feet and give us part-time tickets now!

Joshua 16New International Version (NIV)
Allotment for Ephraim and Manasseh
16 The allotment for Joseph began at the Jordan, east of the springs of Jericho, and went up from there through the desert into the hill country of Bethel. 2 It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz),[a] crossed over to the territory of the Arkites in Ataroth, 3 descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites as far as the region of Lower Beth Horon and on to Gezer, ending at the Mediterranean Sea.
4 So Manasseh and Ephraim, the descendants of Joseph, received their inheritance.
5 This was the territory of Ephraim, according to its clans:
The boundary of their inheritance went from Ataroth Addar in the east to Upper Beth Horon 6 and continued to the Mediterranean Sea. From Mikmethath on the north it curved eastward to Taanath Shiloh, passing by it to Janoah on the east. 7 Then it went down from Janoah to Ataroth and Naarah, touched Jericho and came out at the Jordan. 8 From Tappuah the border went west to the Kanah Ravine and ended at the Mediterranean Sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Ephraimites, according to its clans. 9 It also included all the towns and their villages that were set aside for the Ephraimites within the inheritance of the Manassites.
10 They did not dislodge the Canaanites living in Gezer; to this day the Canaanites live among the people of Ephraim but are required to do forced labor.

Deterred or Detained? A Unified Model of Criminal Punishment
1University of Connecticut
Citation Information: Review of Law & Economics. Volume 8, Issue 1, Pages 1–20, ISSN (Online) 1555-5879, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1515/1555-5879.1603, March 2012
Publication History
- Published Online:
- 2012-03-16
The standard economic model of crime since Becker (1968) is primarily concerned with deterrence, but actual punishment policies appear to rely on imprisonment to a greater extent than is prescribed by that model. One reason may be the incapacitation function of prison. The model developed in this paper seeks to incorporate incapacitation into the standard model. A key finding of the hybrid model is that when prison is the only form of punishment and the probability of apprehension is fixed, incapacitation can result in a longer or a shorter optimal prison term compared to the deterrence-only model. Other aspects of the standard model are studied within the context of the hybrid model.

RUSTON ---- Louisiana Tech split a pair of softball games Wednesday afternoon, winning the opener 2-1 and falling 4-1 in the nightcap against Nicholls State at the Tech Softball Complex.
The victory in the opening game gave Louisiana Tech coach Bill Galloway his 900th career victory.
In the first contest, the Lady Colonels (16-18) jumped on the board early as Jennifer Ortego, who reached base on a walk, scored on an RBI double by Julie Rodriguez.
The Lady Techsters (8-10) tied the game in fourth inning. Second baseman Casey Reiff reached base on a single and was driven home on an RBI double by Sabra Warner.
Neither team was able to score again until Louisiana Tech drove home the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Reiff scored again on an RBI infield single by shortstop Jennifer LaRussa.
Lindsey Meadows (5-4) picked up her fifth win of the season, pitching nine innings. She gave up a run on three hits while striking out 10.
Duffi Matherne (9-13) collected the loss after pitching 8 1/3 and giving up two runs on eight hits while striking out a batter.
Reiff led Tech offensively in the first game, scoring both runs while going 2-for-4 at the plate.
Rodriguez led the Lady Colonels at the plate, going 2-for-3 with an RBI.
In the second game, Nicholls State scored single runs in the fourth and fifth innings and padded its lead with two runs in the seventh to take a 4-1 victory.
The Lady Colonels scored the first run of the game in the top of the fourth when Rodriguez, who reached base on a single and was advanced to third, scored on a sacrifice fly by Nicole Stewart.
Louisiana Tech responded with a single run in the bottom of the fourth. Maria Villanueva scored on a double by LaRussa for the Lady Techsters' lone score.
Nicholls State added a run in the fifth inning when shortstop Jill Chabert, who reached base on a single and was advanced to third, scored on a Louisiana Tech error. The Lady Colonels added two more runs in the seventh when pinch hitter
Amy Pitre doubled with the bases loaded. Matherne (9-13) picked up the win in the second game for Nicholls State after allowing a run on nine hits in seven innings of work. Marla Pinkston (2-4) took the loss after allowing four runs on nine hits while striking out seven batters in seven innings. Chabert led the Lady Colonels offensively in the second contest, going 2-for-4 and scoring a run while Miranda Knight led the Lady Techsters, going 2-for-3 at the plate.
Nicholls returns to action on Friday when it takes part in the Louisiana-Lafayette Lady Cajun Invitational Tournament.

The Anzac legend continues on the Western Front
In March 1916, after the bitter campaign against Turkey in Gallipoli, many of the Anzacs were sent to the Western Front in France in an effort to strengthen the allied forces and break the deadlock with Germany.
Australian soldiers played an important part in many battles on the Western Front. The unrelenting fighting during 1916 and 1917 saw Australia suffer huge losses for little gain—losses which dwarfed the casualties experienced at Gallipoli.

India Knight's real asset is her talent for convincing displays of soul-baring. When she says that she is "naturally spectacularly crap with money", has had her "fair share of bailiffs over the years" and was served with bankruptcy papers, I believe her absolutely. For all I know, as a bestselling writer with a long-running column in a London newspaper, she could actually be as crafty as Fred Goodwin when it comes to her own money.
But everything here has that authentic feel to it, which is necessary when you're trolling through a book of money-saving tips that is so predicated on common sense that you want to slap yourself for not thinking of it first: save leftovers from meals; buy only what you need; repair your clothes; holiday at home; buy second-hand, and so on.
I could have done without the pictures, though. Knight's writing style is breezy enough and she doesn't need them to pep up her prose, which managed simultaneously to make me laugh out loud and feel guilty for being so bad with money myself – not an easy feat.

From Oprah.com, these are rules for living after age 35. I definitely agree with some of these!
1. A true sign of love is giving your partner the soft pillow.
2. Always give money to the girl with the violin or the guy with the guitar.
3. Never leave a hospital with a newborn but without a birth certificate.
4. Everybody loves a doughnut. Everybody. Even divorce lawyers.
5. If you think you need concealer, you need concealer.
6. Thank-you notes. Always.
7. Leggings are not pants.
8. When you see someone you know but don't feel like talking to them, don't look at the grass in the park or study a jar of mayonnaise on the supermarket shelf and pretend you don't see them. They know you're faking, and they'll remember.
9. There are only three real answers: yes, no and yes but later.
10. People notice wrapping paper, not wrapping skills.
11. You will never change anybody's opinion about whether or not the bathwater is too hot or too cold.
12. Go to bed. Go to bed. I know it's only 10:30 p.m., but go to bed!
13. No tattoos on the neck. On you or anyone else.
14. Moms like scented candles. It's not a crime to give them one every month.
15. If you tell somebody to go away, they will hang around.
16. Nonstop flights are worth the extra money.
17. If you see lilacs or water balloons in April, you absolutely must buy them.
18. Lifting your tongue to the roof of your mouth while taking a photo helps smooth out a double chin.
19. Books. Books. More Books.
20. Men who don't put their face in the water are men you may not date or marry. You can swim or not swim, but you can't half-swim. That is like half-walking, half-thinking or half-falling in love. The guy has to put his face in the water, even if it's cold and dark.
21. The five-second food-on-the-floor rule is really the 30-second food-on-the-floor rule. Except in houses with dogs.
22. There is a color you love that does NOT look good on you. Stop wearing it!
23. Parents love the friend who offers to hold their baby so they can drink a beer.
24. Whispering makes children do just about anything. Which is important to remember when you're about to yell.
25. There is only one clothing size. Yours. Baggy stuff makes you feel thin but look fat. Tight stuff is just plain painful.
26. Take the stairs. Except if you're on your way to a date or an interview.
27. You will never run out of ideas—or love. So put them out there in the world. You'll have plenty more tomorrow.

Saw this idea in Pottery Barn Kids book. Old picture frame painted white, pop out the glass, cover the cardboard in fabric, glue, attach ribbon (leave slack) and then put frame back on. Great place to store clips and such, plus it looks cute on the wall.

One of the coolest things about being an Allstar is getting to know other Allstars. We all are passionate about food. What a cool find in the June newsletter. My submission to their QA was featured! If you're a regular visitor, or not I'm sharing so you can get to know me a little bit better. (Click the picture to enlarge) :)

Pretzels galore
In April I posted a blog about an assignment I had involving pretzels. Snack Factory® Pretzel Crisps®. asked the Allstars to create some recipes using their product. Normally, I would jump for joy, but not when my creativity is restricted.
My two bags of pretzel crisps were actually pretzel crumbs. This was a challenge because any recipe we created required us to keep the pretzels intact. I thought about a sweet and salty effect and decided to go with an S'mores style recipe. I chose to create recipes that served just one. If I learned anything it is simply the Snack Factory company needs to re-think their packaging and use a sleeve-style package in order to keep their product whole.
My recipe for "Sarah's I want S'more pretzel crisps" can be found here.

Crunchy pretzel pieces
Earlier this month I was tasked with the assignment of creating a custom recipe for Snack Factory® Pretzel Crisps®. While I can't share the recipes just yet, I will take the time to give my opinion on the product.
The company wanted us to keep the pretzels whole - after all, the pretzel crisp is the star product. Unfortunately, the company does not have sturdy packaging. Out of TWO bags of pretzel crisps, I was fortunate to have around 20 whole crisps.
Naturally I either would discard the broken pieces, but instead, I elected to make the famous strawberry pretzel salad and no it's not a salad in the traditional sense, but it's tasty.
I do not know if I will ever buy the snack factory pretzels again. They may be a healthy alternative to most snack food, but they're not for me. I think the company needs to rethink their packaging. It's rather deceptive to see stacks of whole pretzels on their package and to have the contents look like the bag had been drop-kicked.

DIY - Round two
Have you ever looked at the ingredients that go into food? Well aside from being able to source food locally, often the only thing you can do is try to make it yourself.

DIY -homemade is best
We are just a little over two weeks into the New Year, and looking back I didn't intentionally set out to make a food resolution, but ironically it happened!
I often find myself buying items at the grocer which I can easily make at home, but really never bothered to do. Think about it. If you're a serious foodie (NO this doesn't mean you simply love to eat, it means you love to COOK and eat!) why buy what you know you can make better at home? Sure there's convenience, but there is also a price to pay. This price is not just in a monetary sense of the word, but in health also. So what food items have I been making at home? Well seasoning mixes for starters.
If you have ever looked at the ingredients for seasoning mixes you'll see they're often high in sodium, and sometimes there are ingredients you can't even pronounce! This is an amazing taco seasoning mix and you'll actually surprise yourself when you discover how much of a difference there is, not just in taste, but in money saved.
Another area where I've started a DIY trend is with pasta! Oh momma mia! There is such an AMAZING difference between store bought boxed pasta, and pasta you make yourself! When I visited New York, I was gifted a $100 gift card to Williams-Sonoma; I also had a coupon for 15% off. I decided to buy the Kitchenaid pasta press attachment! It comes with 6 presses: spaghetti, large macaroni, small macaroni, fusili, rigatoni and bucatini.
I decided to try the spaghetti, and made a simple Italian sausage sauce to go with it, complete with some lovely herbs a friend bought while visiting Florence, Italy. I only wish I could figure out what the ingredients are in this herb seasoning. It's just beautiful with the flecks of purple!!! So if anyone knows the mixture I would love to know myself!!! It looks like parsley, mixed with cayenne, and garlic, but there are also edible flowers I believe?

Sarah's red velvet cake
I am an avowed Red Velvet Snob. I have tried more than 45+ different recipes for it -yes there are that many! After that many recipes, I am sticking w/ my family heirloom recipe. I once made the mistake of sharing this beloved recipe on the cake central website, and while it got rave reviews, there were also amateurs who would frost this beautiful cake with ungodly cream cheese
crap stuff; people who believed it had too
much red dye, then there were those kitchen experiments gone wrong (ie., using
dry chocolate pudding in place of cocoa... what were they thinking?!) and the list
goes on. So I removed my recipe...and the uproar it caused! So another
member lovingly re-posted my family recipe tweaking it from 2 bottles of red
food dye to 1 bottle. GRRRR! Yes I growled. If you want to use my
family recipe don't screw it up...don't tweak it...don't use the wrong
frosting. In short,
please find another recipe to massacre.
Red Velvet is more than just a "red" cake. It's
of a Devil's Food Cake, but is a vibrant red colour. Some recipes call for the use of vinegar and buttermilk, psst the vinegar is NOT needed. If you have a recipe with buttermilk, the acidity in the buttermilk lends enough acidity to allow the baking soda to go to work.
I'm fortunate enough to come from a line of phenomenal cooks and bakers. These ladies KNOW how to make a red velvet cake, and warning! One mention of cream cheese frosting they will turn up their nose. As Granna puts it "they're messing it up if they don't use the original frosting!" Granna actually has a yellowed clipping of what is the first published recipe for red velvet cake and it does NOT call for cream cheese frosting!! We use the frosting from this published recipe, but the cake recipe is our family's.
The frosting, like the cake, is truly unique! It envolves many cooking techniques, but don't let that scare you away! Well what about the frosting? Mmmm it's buttery, has a slight vanilla taste, and is a light whipped texture. Paired with red velvet cake it's a class act!
First the icing starts off by being cooked -basically making a roux (which is DEFINATELY a southern term) and then it moves to a stage where the roux cools to room temperature.Meanwhile, you have other ingredients which are being creamed together.
Then you have the culmination where the roux mixture meets the creamed mixture to become a whipped mixture which although it is whipped, it is not as airy or delicate like a "whipped cream" would be, and yet it's not as heavy or dense as a buttercream or a cream cheese frosting.
The texture -if the icing is made properly- is delicate in feel, literally like a soft buttercream, but not overly sweet - the icing does have sugar in it, but it is granulated. If I have any particuliar question about the recipe it is simply "is this granulated or confectioner sugar" which I can understand, and most people will think it will come out grainy. Well if you make it properly the granules will dissolve and you'll be left w/ an icing that has a slight hint of a buttery vanilla flavour.
Okay, okay so what about the recipe? Ladies and Gentlemen I present Sarah's ravishing red velvet cake (Accept no impostors!) Yes, you will see this same cake (titled: Sarah's red velvet cake tweaked) on cake central, but this is my family recipe.
2 1/2 cups cake flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 Tbsp baking cocoa
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup butter (not margarine)
2 eggs
2 ounces (bottles) red food coloring
1 cup buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Sift flour, cocoa, salt, and baking soda together and set aside.
Place butter and sugar in bowl of electric mixer and beat at medium-speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time. With mixer on low, add red food coloring (be careful not to splash it!). Add vanilla. Add buttermilk alternately with flour mixture - begin and end with the buttermilk! Scrape the bowl as needed after each addition.
Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for 28 – 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes and then gently turn cakes out onto cooling rack to cool to room temperature.
Frost with the authentic frosting.
Often called "Mary Kay frosting" (we don't know how this name stuck) or some know it as a poor man's frosting - this is the original frosting for red velvet cake!
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
3/4 cup white vegetable shortening, such as Crisco
1 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 tsp vanilla
In a saucepan, add the flour and 1/4 cup of milk and whisk until smooth. Add the remaining milk and whisk until well combined. Cook over medium heat until mixture is thickened. Cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, shortening, and sugar on medium speed for several minutes. Add the vanilla and mix until combined. Add the cooled flour/milk mixture and beat on high for 5 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Spread on cooled cake
I have NOT tried this with all butter, I won't be offended with this small change, but please NO CREAM CHEESE!!!!

Jefferson County gadfly Mike Zinna, once a fixture at public hearings in the Taj Mahal, has returned to the radio waves after a four-year hiatus from the business.
"The Zinna Experiment," a two-hour weekday show, debuted last week on talk-radio station 101.5 FM The Truth.
The program, broadcast from 7 to 9 p.m., fuses casual political colloquy with shock-jock radio elements. Future shows will include investigative reporting as well as detailed interviews with local journalists, Zinna said.
An extermination company hired by the Foothills Park & Recreation District poisoned hundreds of prairie dogs on June 16 at Clement Park in what the district's director said is a yearly occurrence.
Workers placed toxic fumigation pellets into many of the dens in the native-grass area south of the Columbine Memorial, stuffing the burrows with newspaper and covering them with dirt.
Waterton Canyon will soon be intermittently closed for more than a year as Denver Water workers dredge 625,000 cubic yards of sediment that has accumulated in the wake of forest fires and heavy rain.
The popular trail and canal, well known as an entrance to the Colorado Trail, will be closed beginning Aug. 2, will open again Dec. 4, then will close again from Feb. 28, 2011, through Dec. 31, 2011. The temporary reopening in the coming winter is possible because freezing temperatures would make dredging nearly impossible.
Anticipating his re-election in November, state Sen. Mike Kopp has some big plans for his next term in the legislature. But with the possibility of the Democratic majority holding its edge, Kopp's blueprint for shrinking Colorado's government could face a challenge.
Kopp, a Republican who is up for re-election this year in South Jeffco's District 22, was running unopposed until a few weeks ago, when Conifer Democrat Mike Daniels threw his hat into the ring at virtually the last minute.
The Foothills Park & Recreation District hired an extermination company to kill hundreds of prairie dogs Wednesday at Clement Park. Workers placed toxic fumigation pellets into virtually every den in the native-grass area south of the Columbine Memorial, stuffing the burrows with newspaper and covering them with dirt.
Complaints from the bordering neighborhood prompted the move, said Foothills spokeswoman Kate Dragoo.
"We had neighborhood complaints, because (prairie dogs) had been intruding onto neighborhood property," Dragoo said.
District Attorney Scott Storey is warning citizens of a telephone scam that has resurfaced in Jefferson County. In the last few days, several people have called the DA's office to report that they have received disturbing automated phone calls alleging to be from their bank or credit union.
Proposals to shrink the popular off-leash dog park at Chatfield State Park are drawing criticism from canine enthusiasts, who say their groups' views have not been fairly considered. Those groups say proposed changes don't reflect their interests and that the modifications won't decrease conflicts among park visitors.
Users of the off-leash area object to a proposal to halve the size of the dog park, to fence the area, and to discontinue access to the South Platte River.
The arraignment for suspected Deer Creek Middle School gunman Bruco Eastwood was rescheduled Monday following a request from a defense lawyer. Discovery documents in the case have burgeoned to about 5,000 pages, and the defense has yet to fully review all of them.
"With regard to the expansive discovery, I would like to have gone through that," public defender Thea Reiff said about reviewing the documents before Eastwood enters a plea.
A string of burglaries in South Jeffco has prompted the Sheriff's Office to urge residents to practice the simple precaution of closing their garage doors. Thieves have boldly entered at least three local homes and another in the northern part of the county since May 17 through open garage doors.
"Normally it's a quick hit," sheriff's spokesman Mark Techmeyer said. "But you don't often see this, where they'll make entry into the house."

Wii U Gamepad Not Being Sold Standalone... Yet
Posted on Friday, September 14 @ 07:48:33 PST by Anthony Severino
Yesterday, Nintendo let the cat out of the bag on the Wii U launch. Full pricing details, release date, and what you actually get in the box—everything you need to know—was covered. But there was still one thing missing: How much would it cost for a second Wii U Gamepad?
Earlier in the year, Nintendo revealed that the Wii U could support up to two Wii U Gamepads in addition to a number of Wii U and Wii accessories and controller options. But since there won't be any games at launch that support two Wii U Gamepads, offering one for sale is moot, and would diminish the available Gamepads available for hardware bundles at retail, says Nintendo of America president and COO Reggie Fils-Aime.
We have deliberately not announced the availability of the GamePad as a separate, standalone accessory here in the United States. The reason for that is simple - there are no games in the launch window that take advantage of a second GamePad. And [because of that], I want all of that hardware production to be focused on driving sales at retail.Sound logical to me. However, it does make you wonder how much the Gamepad—the meat and potatoes of the Wii U—will cost eventually, and how much cost it adds to the overall total cost of each Wii U hardware bundle, ranging from $299 to $349.
