Spinach Baked with Ricotta is #RecipeOfTheDay! This is the mixture, give or take, often used to stuff pasta, but it’s wonderful as a dreamy side-dish. I think of it as an aromatic Italianate take on creamed spinach. www.nigella.com/recipes/spin...

Did We Learn Nothing From 'WarGames'? The 1983 hit about Matthew Broderick and a computer system "playing" Thermonuclear War should be required viewing at the Pentagon right now.

Everyone's asking if Pete Hegseth recalls how letting A.I. control nuclear arsenals turned out in the 'Terminator' movies. We're wondering if he remembers the endgame in a different '80s movie: 'WarGames'
