Discussions in RP on sensitive, emotional subjects that don't devolve into acrimonious name-calling and victim-playing, where parties state their opinions and yet still listen with open minds to the opinions of others. Truly, the thornbush has exited the garden. {#Yes}

Nevermind that, what about

At 8:35 p.m., a man in the Riverton area said he found a bunch of hair by the river. The caller would not give dispatch information about which bridge he was by or what road he was on.

I saw that one too.

32-year-old Riverton man was cited for Shoplifting and given a No Tresspass order for Smith’s Grocery. A police report indicated the man entered the store, walked to the dog food section, selected an expensive brand of dog food, and then went to the customer service counter asking for a refund. When he was refused, the man went to the deli area and pocketed a bag of turkey, a corn dog, and a submarine sandwich and tried to leave the store without paying for the $13.48 worth of food.

Isn't there an app for that? iProbe?

I don't think that app is for culinary purposes.

I think that a lot of tea "experts" claim that many green teas should be steeped at about 170°F, or so - that water above that temperature (i.e. 212°), would make the brew too bitter by releasing more tannins than desired. I guess those instructions are assuming one would not have a thermometer handy, so it's easier to let the water cool down.

My wife brought home a new brand of green tea the other day...In looking at the packaging it states to bring the water to a boil and then let it cool for 5 to 7 minutes before pouring it into your cup... {#Stupid}

Why bring the water to a boil at all?
