BETTER COOKING THROUGH CHEMISTRY: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzL07v6w8AA [12:56] to let Cook’s Illustrated’s Lan Lam teach you the hows and whys to achieve better browning in food. The two types of browning are caramelization (sugars) and Maillard browning (sugars and amino acids). Both require food to be heated to about 300°F.
BIDEN CRIME FAMILY: Bill Stevenson is Jill Biden’s ex-husband; they married in 1970 and divorced in 1975. CLICK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z8zyy03NmE [10:38] to see his interview on Newsmax this week. He says, “Jimmy (James Biden), Frankie (Francis Biden) and President Biden are very dangerous, and it’s tragic. I can’t let them do what they did to me to President Trump.”
His story about being fined $8,200 in April for, if I understand it correctly, missing the deadline for paying his first quarter taxes for the same year is unbelievable. Compare it to Hunter, who cheated on his 2014 and 2015 tax returns to the tune of $125,000, but had the DOJ stall pursuing him until the statute of limitations had run out.

HOT SUMMER: Wrongs are loving the record-breaking heat this summer, because they think it confirms their fervent, cultish belief in Anthropogenic Global Warming. Except, oh wait, the SCIENCE does not support this conclusion. According to NASA, the culprit is the huge amount of water vapor that the underwater Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano hurled into the atmosphere when it erupted in January of 2022.
This eruption was so enormous that it sent a tsunami racing around the world, set off a sonic boom that circled the globe twice, and blasted 146 teragrams of water vapor into the stratosphere. That was enough water to fill more than 58,000 Olympic-size swimming pools. One Olympic-size swimming pool holds at least 660,430 gallons of water; you can do the math; numbers this big make my head ache!
In the 18 years that NASA has been taking measurements of such things, only the 2008 Kasatochi eruption in Alaska and the 2015 Calbuco eruption in Chile sent appreciable amounts of water vapor to such high altitudes. But the volume of those two were tiny compared to the Tonga eruption and the water vapor from them dissipated quickly. By contrast, the excess water vapor the Tonga volcano added to the stratosphere may take several years to dissipate, during which time it trap heat and cause warmer than normal temperatures.

SHIFTING BLAME: When Moses came down from the mountain and found his people worshiping a golden calf, he asked Aaron how he could let them commit such a grave sin. Aaron replied, “Let not my lord be angry. You know well enough how prone the people are to evil. They said to me, ‘Make us a god to be our leader; as for the man Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.’ So I told them, ‘Let anyone who has gold jewelry take it off.’They gave it to me, and I threw it into the fire, and this calf came out.” – Exodus 32: 23-25 [NABRE]
“And this calf came out.” ::snort:: Really? He tossed jewelry into a fire and a fully formed golden calf just popped out of the fire? LOL It reminds me of a Bill Cosby routine where he recounts how he and his brother broke the bed. When his father asked who broke the bed, they claimed it was a stranger who came in through the window. The father asked, “What window?” The boys replied, “He brought it with him.”
This kind of blame shifting has been going on since the Garden of Eden. When God asked Adam and Eve if they had eaten from the forbidden tree, Adam replied, “The woman whom you put here with me—she gave me fruit from the tree, so I ate it.” Then, God asked Eve, who “What is this you have done?” and she said, “The snake tricked me, so I ate it.” – Genesis 3:11-13 [NABRE]
