    15 June 1878 - MUYBRIDGE STOPS TIME WITH HIS CAMERA: Leland Stanford is
    fairly certain that when a horse gallops there is a moment when all four
    of its legs leave the ground. He hires photographer Eadweard Muybridge
    who takes pioneering stop-motion photographs, proving that horses can
    indeed become airborne for a split second, and the innovative images
    will mark the dawn of motion pictures.

    The series became the first example of chronophotography, an early
    method to photographically record the passing of time, mainly used to
    document the different phases of locomotion for scientific study. It
    formed an important step in the development of motion pictures.

    Muybridge's work was commissioned by Leland Stanford, the industrialist,
    former Governor of California, and horseman, who was interested in horse
    gait analysis.

    3 tb (45mL) bleu cheese; crumbled
    3 tb (45mL) sour cream
    5 ts (25mL) minced chives
    5 ts (25mL) prepared horseradish

    5 ts (25mL) mayonnaise
    Fresh ground peppercorns

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

    Sear roast all sides.

    Rub with mustard and season.

    Roast 10 minutes.

    Reduce temperature to 350-|F/175-|C and continue to cook
    to desired degree of doneness.

    Take meat out, cover loosely with foil and let stand.

    In a bowl, mix sauce ingredients together.

    In a skillet, bring sauce to a boil.

    Lay sliced meat on a bed of sauce.

    Cooking time: the best way to check doneness is with a
    meat thermometer, which shows the meat's internal
    temperature.

    Rare -- 125-|F/55-|C.
    Medium -- 150-|F/65-|C.
    Well-done -- 170-|F/77-|C.

    It is important to take the roast out of the oven 5 to
    10 minutes before it's done as its internal temperature
    will continue to rise a little.
