I had also heard that recipe, and can't find it anywhere. It was a gentleman from America's Test Kitchen, but I searched their site and could not find it. Anyone?

Listening on my way to work on Wednesday morning, someone gave out a recipe for a cheese ball. Called my answering machine to remind myself to get it later that night, but then I got sick for the whole weekend and forgot until now. And now, I can't find it!
Can anyone send it please?
Thanks.
( I know, it's a pretty cheesy questions ...)

How about the opposing view to this guy? did I miss that? And what is wrong with a Gov't Bank? Sure, this guy is English and is opposed to a socialized system that does not screw the people, but one that maximizes profits at any cost. And without having to be obsessed with profits or shareholder satisfaction, they can make loans at extremely low interest rates.
This will help Americans get the loans for their needs, without worrying about adjustable rates or unforeseen risks, while at the same time create revenue for the government.

It is time to bid farewell to the repeating failures of our Capitalist, greedy system.
