Spatchcock, what a great name! I ran across a few articles about this when I was getting ready to deep fry the Turkey for Thanksgiving. So you get another 2 fer with this post. Spatchcocked Jerk Chicken for Man Food Monday is in 2 parts. The first part is a how to do a spatchcock, and the other is the jerk chicken recipe. So, read on and lets see how this goes.
Spatchcock is a method of preparing fowl for smoking,baking/broiling or grilling. What you will do is remove the back bone entirely as well as removing the breast bone so that the chicken will lay flat on the grill or in the pan. Michelle is the photographer extraordinaire and has taken all the pictures I am merely the hands that do the cutting. So follow along and lets get busy.
Getting the chicken ready takes a little pre-planing. I thawed the whole chicken for 2 days before getting it ready to cook. The second day of the thaw, I salt brined the whole chicken to give it a little more flavor. Then, I put together the jerk marinade this morning before I had to go to a scheduled meeting. Normally, I would do the spatchcock and then put the chicken in the marinade, but this morning I decided to put it in marinade before I left. You do not have to do it this way, I suggest you do the spatchcock first.
First thing is turn the chicken breast side down. You are going to want to use sharp kitchen shears and cut down both sides or it's back bone to remove it.
Once the breast bone is removed the chicken will lay flat on the cook pan or grill.
Turn the chicken breast side up and place in the oven at 400° for 60 to 75 minutes or until the internal temp is 165°. If you are going to grill it you will need to per heat the grill to medium hot (400°) then place it breast side up for about 35 minutes and finish cooking breast side down for another 30 minutes or until it reaches 165° internal.
Thaw and brine the chicken over night.
Put together the Jerk marinade, place in blender and combine until smooth.
Take the chicken and spatchcock cut it.
Brush the chicken liberally with the jerk marinade and place in a Ziploc bag for at least 3 hours or overnight.
Remove the Jerk marinaded chicken place on the grill breast side up for 35 minutes then breast side down for 30 minutes or until the internal temp is 165° measured at the thigh.
If you are baking it place in a oven safe dish and bake for 45 minutes or until the internal temp is 165° measured at the thigh.
The chicken turned out great. Doing the spatchcock was very easy, and it did shorten the cook time pretty significantly. There was just enough heat in the Jerk seasoning to give it that edge you want when having Caribbean flavored dishes. I used dried Serrano peppers that I had on hand here but you can opt to used fresh habanero peppers just remember to remove some or most the seeds and the veins (this is where all that evil heat lives). We served this with braised cabbage and yellow rice. This was a very satisfying meal, and if there are any leftovers…they make a great next day lunch!
I invite you to go give this a try!

When we expand the Ising model we have one component with 3 qbits like Q1Q2Q3. But in qubo file we can only set coupling for 2 qbit only. How should I set this 3-qbit element to qubo file?
This is explained in the D-Wave documentation.


The major domestic equity indexes ended the trading day on Thursday in negative territory, as investors worried about potential roadblocks to Republicans' tax overhaul offsetting their optimism over strong retail sales data.
The holiday shopping season got off to a brisk start, pointing to sustained strength in the economy. The Commerce Department reported Thursday morning that retail sales rose 0.8 percent last month, pointing to sustained strength in the economy. Data for October was revised to show sales gaining 0.5 percent instead of the previously reported 0.2 percent rise.
Average Americans clearly are not holding back on their holiday shopping to see what happens with the tax bill.
And the latest jobless claims numbers showed a surprise drop in the number of people filing for unemployment benefits last week. The weekly jobless claims figure fell to 225,000, not far from the 44-year low of 222,000 reported in October.
It's true that wages have yet to pick up dramatically. That's the one weak spot in the labor market. However, you can't look at wages in isolation. Inflation hasn't come roaring back either.
Yet, even with skimpy salary increases, a lot of Americans are still making more money in real terms. And they are putting that money back into the economy by spending.
One concern is that higher levels of economic growth about 4 percent could result in some unintended consequences of the upcoming tax cuts.
If tax reform makes the economy grow too fast and eventually brings about higher inflation, the Federal Reserve may have to step up the pace of interest rate hikes.
That could slow down the economy more than many would like. The result could easily be that the Fed raises interest rates four times in 2018, which is more than what Wall Street now expects.
Though congressional Republicans had reached a deal on final tax legislation on Wednesday, Republican Senators Marco Rubio and Mike Lee said on Thursday they would not get behind the bill without changes to child tax credits.
As the fast-moving Republican tax revamp has evolved, it has tilted increasingly toward benefiting businesses and wealthy taxpayers, a trend that aides were saying privately is a growing concern for some lawmakers. Equity investors worry that stocks could tumble if the bill fails.
The S&P, down less than a half a percent from its record closing high hit Tuesday, posted its largest daily percentage drop since Nov. 15.
Healthcare stocks were the largest weight on the S&P 500, falling 1.1 percent. Some portfolio managers said investors were cashing in on recent gains in the sector.
Disney struck a deal to buy Twenty-First Century Fox's assets for $52.4 billion in stock.
Fox shares rose 6.5 percent to $34.88 and Disney rose 2.8 percent to $110.57, also boosting the consumer discretionary sector, the only major S&P sector in the black on Thursday.
Investors were also digesting the Federal Communications Commission's vote on Thursday to repeal landmark 2015 rules aimed at ensuring a free and open internet, setting up a court fight over a move that could recast the digital landscape.
Approximately 6.67 billion shares changed hands on the major domestic equity exchanges, a number that was higher than the 6.53 billion share daily average over the past 20 trading sessions.

Braves VP says move to Cobb will benefit the entire region
By Dan Klepal, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Derek Schiller says the Atlanta Braves move to the suburbs isn't about Atlanta, Cobb County or the team.
The Braves' executive vice president of sales and marketing, Schiller told a group of about 50 business people at the Buckhead City Club Thursday morning that the development of SunTrust Park and the associated mixed-use development, known as The Battery Atlanta, will benefit the entire region.
"We're excited about what Opening Day (2017) represents for us. It's a galvanizing project … we believe for the entire region. This should not be about Cobb County; it should not be about Atlanta. It's about the entire area. It's about embracing the entire area. We hope this project will attract everybody."
Schiller described many aspects of the development — from the lightning-quick internet speeds, to the size of the stadium, to why the team believes traffic and parking won't be major hindrances for its fans — that have been widely publicized. There was one question that Schiller couldn't answer, though.
"How far is the stadium from the Big Chicken?"
"You know," Schiller responded, "I've never been asked that."
Schiller said the technological wizardry and a cantilever system that brings seats closer to the field of play will be major attractions of the stadium. The 1.5 million square feet of mixed use development, which will include apartments, an office tower, an Omni Hotel, The Roxy theater and 350,000 square feet of retail, will bring people to the complex year round, he said.
On the traffic issue, Schiller said the Braves "are not solving traffic in Atlanta." But he did say that the location, at the intersections of I-75 and I-285, will provide fans will multiple points of access to the development that will make maneuvering around it easier.
Parking and traffic are major concerns related to the new stadium.
"You can get to it from many different ways; there are many different roads in and out of the location," Schiller said of the new development.
Schiller also said the team believes the proposed pedestrian bridge over I-285, which would link the Cobb Galleria with the stadium, is important for fan safety.
"Currently, the opportunity for walkability … is a little bit difficult," Schiller said. "Ultimately, (the bridge) is the responsibility of Cobb County. We're doing everything we can to see that all the parties can come together. I don't have a time frame. Hopefully, it will happen in time for opening day.
"We're optimistic. We're optimistic about everything else, so why not be optimistic about that, too."
As The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has previously reported, the bridge will not be open for any part of the 2017 season, and it is unclear if it will be built at all.
Chris Godfrey, a real estate agent, said Schiller delivered a pitch-perfect message to the City Club members.
"The energy it's going to bring and the new development is really impressive," Godfrey said. "It's going to be a neat hub for business and where people go after business hours."
Bob Gibeling, who owns a marketing firm, wasn't sold.
Schiller is "a very effective spokesman for the Braves, but I still have some serious reservations about why they have made their move," Gibeling said. "What they say about caring about the fans just doesn't add up. It's real clear to me this is strictly a profit-based decision by out-of-town owners that want to maximize their … profit."

Common Core = Common Sense?
Several days ago, a parent posted a photo of a check he had made out to his child's school with symbols instead of written numbers. His apparent objective was to show his frustration over how ridiculous he feels the Common Core math standards are, and his post worked, renewing yet again a heated online debate over this controversy. Transfixed, I read through hours and hours of comments and news articles, trying to get a better understanding of what exactly are people's main issues with the standards. Many parents are angry, railing against the policy, claiming frustration and tears over homework and threatening to remove their children from public schools. But it's this seeming hysteria that tends to give me pause. Why and what exactly is causing all this fury?
In very short form, the Common Core is a set of standards that defines what a student should know and be able to do by the end of each grade. What it doesn't do is specifically state the method that must be used to teach, and is instead leaving that up to schools and teachers at the state and local government level. So there goes one of the arguments I came across in which many feel that federal government should not control education. This policy still provides the autonomy in flexibility and creativity in how best to teach students to those who actually have to teach it. Although why some decry this as "federal curriculum" as if that's such a terrible thing is beyond me anyway. I struggled to find a school in which to enroll my child and during my search, all I kept thinking was "It shouldn't be this hard. Every school ought to be just as good as the other." And if for any reason we ever had to pick up and move to a new state, my child ought to be able to set foot in any school in the country and be able to pick up exactly where she left off. If having a federally governed educational set of standards for all states to follow would be the only way to ensure that, then why exactly is that not a favorable idea?
While the Common Core standards issue guidelines across multiple subjects, it is math that appears to rankle parents most. I'm still trying to understand this, too. For so long, we've ballyhooed about how far our students lag behind other nations, such as students in Singapore whom consistently rank the highest of all nations in math test scores. One facet of the method they exercise, dubbed by the U.S. as Singapore Math, uses greater detail and pictorial representations to solve math equations. Guess what new approach that sounds very similar to? You guessed it, Common Core! So these "silly symbols, dots and circles" that have many parents so upset are spot on to the methods used by arguably the very best math students in the world. Maybe I'm by myself on this one, but I fail to see the problem in that (pun intended)!
Why would I expect that this should immediately make sense to me the first time viewing it without any teacher-led instruction or explanation? I haven't actually been taught this method, so of course it looks like gibberish to me. But logic would lead me to believe, that if this is work being given to my first-grader, then it must be something a first-grader is quite capable of understanding. I can't imagine that our schools are in the business of just throwing numbers and concepts out there that are a) way above the student's level of learning and b) that are absolutely and completely unhelpful and useless. So there must be a point to this; there must be a reason here WHY reformers believe this to be a better, easier way. And perhaps if I take advantage of the many workshops most schools have provided that teach the new method to parents and explain its logic then I, too, will actually understand it. How many of these parents that are all ready to burn reformers at the stake have actually attended the workshops and/or sought detailed explanations of the method from their principals and teachers first?
Yes, this method might make a simple arithmetic problem longer in the short run, but in the long run, it ultimately should help one solve harder math equations much more easily and quickly. That certainly seems like a justifiable pay-off to me. If you've always been able to do math in your head or if the "old way" has always worked for you, then truly, that is great. But for the many students (like me) that struggled greatly with math, I welcome any possibility of simplifying, solving and understanding the same problem. I don't see how this would slow or "dumb down" the class for the ones that "already get it", because they're still learning the same math you and I learned, they're just now likely having to "show" more of how they got the answer. And why exactly is that such a bad thing? I had plenty of math teachers that asked us to "show our work" so this isn't even an entirely new concept, it's just giving students an additional (and for some, possibly an easier-to-understand) method of doing so! With any other subject, one can't expect to be able to simply spout information without any supporting facts. When you state a hypothesis in biology class, you record the steps of the scientific method to explain how you arrived at your conclusion. When you take a position on a written thesis, you include footnotes and a bibliography of your sources. In other words, you show your work. Why should math be any different?
Perhaps it's easier for me to take this approach as my child is just entering the school system. This will (potentially) be all that she'll know and I'll get to learn all of this right along with her. I can certainly understand how this may be more frustrating for older students that are just now having to learn a new way of doing things. But I have much faith that kids are pretty adaptive and resilient. It tends to be the parents that are the ones so resistant to change. To go online and see the numbers of parents that are conceivably dismissing these standards without even first making sure they understand what the new standards mean before making up their minds, well, it's rather scary knowing they could potentially succeed in pressuring Congress to repeal the policy before it has even had a chance to be successful. It just doesn't seem right that a snap judgment is being made based off what they think or may have simply seen, not on what they 100% have actually learned and truly understand. To develop a strong critical-thinking aptitude and make decisions and arrive at conclusions based on logic and fact are precisely the skills in which the Core standards are pushing for our students to become better. And that, to me, seems most worthwhile of giving a fair chance.

Just the simple fact that you never explained how to do that problem the "common core" way, or why it is ridiculous to solve a problem in 10 steps instead of two shows me you have no idea either. I could give two Sh***s what students in Singapore are doing. We are in America, and America has produced more inventor's, geniuses, million are entrepreneurs than all those other countries put together…keep up with common core and it'll take them decades to solve one problem…maybe that's the agenda. Why don't explain where that three in the second row came from? How adding five to fifteen helps? Our old way was fast, easy…that's what they don't want anymore.
Hi Molly, you're quite right, I can't explain the Common Core method to you, either. But I also haven't attended a workshop to learn it and/or had a teacher explain it to me, and so I wondered how many parents can actually say that they *have* done that. The point I hoped to convey with my post was let's remove the anger and emotion momentarily and try looking at it from all angles with logic and reason. Maybe it does make a short problem longer initially, but if learning that method helps you solve longer, harder problems down the road much more quickly and easily, then that would certainly pique my interest enough to make me think maybe there is some merit to doing it this way and would at least make me want to learn more before I take an absolute stance against it.
Sorry for the auto corrects, I do know grammar. I was angry and typing too fast.
I can explain it. It's counting up from 12 to 32 in small increments. This example just isn't the smartest way to count up. If I had to guess, small increments are being used in case the student/s are not comfortable making larger leaps yet.
From 12 to 15 is 3. From 15 to 20 is 5 more. 20 to 30 is 10 more. And then 30 to 32 is 2 more. In total the the difference is 3 + 5 + 10 + 2 = 20.
As I said earlier, it isn't the smartest way to count up. A student who understands our number system should be able to count up by tens (or maybe multiples of ten) or just use place value to see that the two numbers are 20 apart.
I agree, that image really isn't the best example, and I came across a well-written post at http://huppiemama.com/common-core/ that speaks on that specific image. I was enlightened reading both the post and many of the comments which provided solid reasoning on why it actually *is* important for students to understand the "why" and not just the "how", hence why equations are broken down as such.
Ok, so here is the thing. They've been working on addition and subtraction for months now. So, first they were taught them how to add with little dots or circles so whenever they added, they had to use dots and sticks to reflect the tens and the ones. Fine. Then, they introduced the number line so each time they added, they now must draw a number line starting with 10 and draw loops that start them at 20 for instance and takes to 73. Well, OK, but some children find this confusing because they've already been taught a method, now they are being asked to learn another for "reasoning" purposes. So then they have to use number charts. The number chart obviously takes you from one number to the next and they are asked to use the ones provided to solve addition and subtraction problems and at one point were asked to draw their own, then draw a number line in addition to the chart. Ugh!!!! It is the same thing! So NOW, they ask them to use sticks and dots again, but to regroup with them. Meaning they must now draw their sticks and dots reflecting each side of the equation, cross out ten of the dots to show that you have regrouped, and then draw sticks and dots reflecting the result. By now, she obviously has complete confidence in the concept of addition, UNTIL you add all of the extra steps. Some children don't have the reasoning ability to see an equation through in multiple ways. It's not a productive way to teach every child. We are both overwhelmed with the amount of homework she has and he length of time it is taking to get it done. I can see how this may be helpful for algebra or trig, I would have loved for my high school and college level math courses to have broken things down in a way that helped me to reason through the problems. but for basic math concepts, it is overkill and confusing to everyone. There is a reason why psychiatrists say you need to keep directions to young children simple and concise…because all of that extra is confusing to them.
I totally see what you're saying. I'm thinking back to my own school days when I was very often completely lost in math class, and it seems like some of these methods would definitely have helped me actually grasp the concept and learn how to work the equation. But you're quite right in that I also probably would have then been confused if I found a method that made sense but was then forced to learn multiple other ways on top of that which may not have worked as well for me. I'm probably oversimplifying this greatly, but I'm thinking of how we were broken down into different reading groups in school and wondering if a similar concept could be applied in the math class based off what method works best for you. Or at least *introducing* all the methods so that every student has a chance to learn them , but then they have the choice to use whichever one fits them best. I agree it doesn't make much sense to require them to show 5 different methods every single time for one math problem.


A few weeks ago Kain sent me their Beck sweater (I like to pretend it was named after me) as a gift. I love the navy hue for fall, but appreciate that it is light fabric and has the ability to layer. It's a great year-round staple that I find goes perfectly well with my latest BaubleBar acquisition.
Love that BaubleBar necklace and it is so pretty against the navy…great layered look!
I agree, gorgeous combo of colors and layers! Yay for the resurgence of pointed toe pumps!

Jacqueline Dupuis to lead Vancouver Int'l Film Fest
Dupuis (pictured) replaces Alan Franey, who has served as the Vancouver International Film Festival's CEO and festival director for the past 26 years.
By Julianna Cummins
Jacqueline Dupuis (pictured) has been named the new leader and executive director of the Vancouver International Film Festival Society, replacing long-time festival director and CEO Alan Franey.
Before Dupuis joined VIFF in 2011, she was the exec director of the Calgary International Film Festival for three years, and also sat on the board of directors of the festival, where she led its first strategic planning initiative. Dupuis also worked for companies such as Xerox and Sun Mircosystems during the 10 years she worked in business management and development in the high tech sector.
In 2013, Dupuis launched the VIFF BC Spotlight program. The program featured 13 feature films made in British Columbia and had a dedicated marketing campaign and program-specific awards. Franey, who has served as the leader of the VIFF for 26 years, will remain involved in the festival as the director of programming.
"As we enter our 33rd year, we are looking to grow and take the organization to the next level. Our goal is to make the Society not only a cultural beacon of cinematic intrigue but also a leader in industry and the business behind entertainment," said VIFF society board chairman David Hewitt in a statement.
"Jacqueline is the perfect person to do this. Her private sector background, along with international film festival experience, makes her the ideal candidate to transition this organization and realize its potential," Hewitt added.
In addition to the leadership announcement, VIFF unveiled plans to rebrand its VIFF Film & Television Forum to VIFF Industry. The four-day business conference, which occurs during the festival, will feature a 20% increase in industry guests and speakers from LA, and an increased focus on British Columbia's service industry.
VIFF Industry will also expand its focus beyond film and television to include screen-based entertainment, in an effort to recognize the contributions visual effects, gaming and animation makes to the province's industry.

Whistleblower Compensation: How Much are Whistleblowers Paid?
Home » Whistleblower Questions » How much are whistleblowers paid?
The amount of whistleblower compensation someone can receive depends on how much money the government recovers as a result of the whistleblower lawsuit. A whistleblower who files a successful claim is paid a reward that equals between 15% and 25% of the amount recovered by the government if the government joined in the case prior to settlement or trial. If the government does not join in the case, and the whistleblower and his or her attorney pursue it on their own, the whistleblower can receive up to 30% of the total amount recovered. Qualified whistleblowers who are represented by experienced attorneys can receive substantial monetary rewards, sometimes many millions of dollars, for a successful claim.
The amount of whistleblower compensation is also impacted by the type of fraud that is reported, the amount of work that the whistleblower and his or her attorney have performed to assist the government in recovering the money, the whistleblower's involvement in the fraud (if any), and whether the government joined in the lawsuit before it was resolved.
Learn more about our firm's whistleblower practice and the successful results we have obtained for our clients.
In cases brought under the False Claims Act, the government can recover three times the amount of the fraud plus fines and penalties. In cases involving healthcare billing fraud or government contract fraud, the government often recovers hundreds of millions of dollars, occasionally even a billion dollars or more.
In this video, Page Pate explains the process of filing a whistleblower lawsuit, and what factors influence the amount of whistleblower compensation in a successful case.
Our experienced whistleblower attorneys have the knowledge and expertise to review possible whistleblower claims and determine if they may result in significant whistleblower compensation. We will help you determine if the case is worth pursuing by giving you an accurate assessment of the claim's value in terms of potential damages that the government might recover. We know how to back up these claims with the evidence necessary to convince the government to join the lawsuit and to award the whistleblower the maximum reward under the law.
If you think you have information that proves a company may be defrauding the federal government — by charging more for their services than they should, not complying with their contracts, or otherwise falsifying invoices to the government — give us a call today. Our experienced lawyers do not charge to consult with you about your suspicions and we can talk you through what to do next. Our calls are completely free and totally confidential.
Keep in mind — it's important that you take action on your information sooner rather than later. Awards under the False Claims Act are generally available only to the first whistleblower to report the fraud and file the necessary lawsuit.


I first connected with Mark Bodek because of former WWE diva Terri Runnels. Terri is a long-time favorite of JohngysBeat.com Terri was one of the first celebrities to call me "Jay Leno," a fact that bothers the Honky Tonk Man to this day.
Mark works with Terri and is a sports fan. It's an exciting time to be a fan of the Nationals. Earlier this year, Mark got to meet several of the Nats, including Steven Souza and Denard Span.
The Nats are the third team t play in Washington DC. They appear to be a success there. Too bad Montreal had to lose a team though.
I have not seen Terri in several years (way too long). She is a blast at conventions. I am really hoping she makes an appearance in the Chicago area in the near future. If any company is interested in bring in Terri, you should contact Mark.
If Mark and Terri make it to Chicago, I am extending an open invitation to join me at a Cubs game. I know it is more of a gift for me than them, but at least they will see the most beautiful field in all of sports (notice I wrote "field" and not entire ballpark).

Staples, Office Depot terminate planned merger after judge issues preliminary injunction
By Shawn Knight on May 11, 2016, 13:15
Staples announced in February 2015 that it had reached an agreement to purchase rival office supplies store Office Depot in a deal valued around $6.3 billion. The regulatory road to closing the deal has been peppered with potholes and now that a judge has weighed in, the two sides are calling it quits.
In December, the two companies ran into a major hurdle by the name of the Federal Trade Commission. The FTC believed a merger would reduce competition for office supplies sold to large companies and thus, filed a request for a preliminary injunction to block the acquisition.
U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan recently sided with the FTC and blocked the deal, bringing an official end to the merger.
Roland Smith, Office Depot chairman and CEO, said they are respectful of the court's decision to grant the FTC's request for a preliminary injunction but are disappointed by the outcome and strongly believe that a merger would have benefitted all of its customers in the long term.
Ron Sargent, Staples chairman and chief executive officer, said they are extremely disappointed that the FTC's request for preliminary injunction was granted despite the fact that it failed to define the relevant market correctly and fell woefully short of proving its case.
Both companies vowed to terminate the merger agreement effective May 16 and forego appealing the ruling. A clause in the original agreement stated that if regulators blocked the merger, Staples would be forced to pay Office Depot $250 million.
Share value in Office Depot is down nearly 40 percent on the news while Staples stock has dropped more than 15 percent.

Houston Methodist, a 2,000+ bed hospital system, comprises eight hospitals: Houston Methodist Hospital (HMH), the flagship academic hospital in the Texas Medical Center (TMC), six community hospitals, and one long-term acute care hospital in the Greater Houston metropolitan area. The system includes freestanding emergency care centers and outpatient facilities, and an extensive network of primary care doctors and specialists.
The academic programs at Houston Methodist are coordinated by the Houston Methodist Academic Institute (HMAI), advised by a council of chairs of the academic clinical and research departments. Houston Methodist's primary academic affiliate in Weill Cornell Medical College of Cornell University. Other affiliations include Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine and several local (University of Houston, University of St. Thomas) and international (Swansea University, Tecnologico de Monterrey, Politecnico di Torino, Xiangya School of Medicine, Chinese Academy of Sciences) institutions.
