As Snowball Said: Some loaves are created more equal than others Left loaf 1.5 tablespoons sugar sugar provides darker color sugar may have affected shape Right loaf 1.0 tablespoons sugar All other variables held constant. Maybe it was not Snowball I quoted, but it was one of the animals that changed the constitution, and maybe it was the bear, Pooh. Still, this is a good reminder that small factors can influence pivotal events of the future.

Distraught Foreigner In Multi-Vehicle Crash In Chonburi
GammaGlobulin replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Thank you for your comment. This is what I had been thinking, immediately. D-FENS -
This world needs many more young kids like this one. He is very well-spoken, and his narration of his project is well done, even getting into the theory of mirror making. I just wish I could have told him to use a 55-gallon oil drum (empty), because, when grinding inside the house, all the abrasives, such as silicon carbide, etc., can be washed down the opening in the oil drum...no fuss, no mess. And, the oil drum, filled partially with water, provides a very stable base on which to do the grinding of the mirror. (Also, this young man is using a single glass blank. Using two blanks is better, or maybe just my opinion. But this means that you need to pay for two glass blanks. And you end up with one mirror and a blank which you then discard. Glass blanks from places like Corning Glass are expensive.)

I agree. And, also, I would like to add that I have been concerned, of late, that Leon, my fellow alumnus, may destroy our Dark Sky with his Starlink Project. Do you think this will happen? And, are you, too, concerned about this likelihood? Our Dark SKY is important for Humanity, even more than Musk might realize. Here are some of the ways that loss of our dark sky might impact Science!!!!

While Wishing you a Blessed Weekend, and a Relaxing Sunday, I welcome you to This Topic of Everything (TOE). Good Evening and Good Morning: What is the TOE,... EXACTLY? The TOE, the Topic of Everything, can be defined as… A Topic of Everything, or Final Topic, an Ultimate Topic, is a hypothetical and coherent Topic, where members can fully explain themselves, as well as Expound Upon all other Topics and/or Future Topics, in an attempt to link together All Aspects of Everything they have Known, or Ever Hope to Know, or Everything they Wish to Discuss (EKEHKEWD) about Thailand, and about Everything Else discussable. Now we are in the middle of a weekend, and tomorrow will be a Sunday, if all goes as planned. Therefore, please share your thoughts, and…EXPOUND! All is fair game (within reason and forum rules, of course) under the sun, or above it. Regards, Gamma G. Note: Enjoy the View from Hubble's Deep Field Observatory...

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust

When I walk, I walk. When I walk, I go round and round, And up and down. And then... The virus hit. Nice that I came across this Topic, I think. The virus has gone, now. Now is the time to build back up to 25 kilometers of walking, non-stop. Might take awhile, but, no doubt, it'll be a piece of cake. I would be satisfied with 16 kilometers per walk, and three walks per week. Better that than become further ossified, I guess.

Important information. However, fortunately, the "slow-cooker" I use does boil when switched to the HI setting. Although, as is also the case, boiling would only reach 100 degrees C at sea level. Boiling beans at Mount Everest Base Camp? At what temperature does water boil Base Camp, Everest? Base Camp is a mythical place, and could be anywhere at the base of the mountain. But, if the elevation was 5,000 meters, then would it be possible to safely boil your beans? Maybe not, according to the FDA link you provided. This is why I suggested desiccated beans, or freeze-dried baked beans. What is the temperature of boiling water at Base Camp? Around 95 degrees C. Not sure if the FDA would be OK with this temp for safely cooking beans. And then you would need to carry extra fuel to Base Camp for the extended boiling time required.

Cuban Black Beans: Available in Thailand? Where?
GammaGlobulin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in Western Food in Thailand
Are those Jumbo black beans, the ones that are labeled Thai and Japanese black beans, the same thing as you would buy in Florida, if making Cuban Black Bean soup or stews? Seems like a good price, because 50 pounds in US, the image I uploaded, sells for over USD100 for 50 pounds.
