How is it intentionally misleading? It's a newspaper given away for free in paper form, frequently. I don't believe the Epoch Times to be a credible news source, in the same way that RT is not one. That doesn't mean its not a

Don Williams was one who was 100% shaped by smoking, but it made his voice rich and full, and enhanced the harmonics and depth of it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Williams You can see the difference of the progres

The hardest part about english as far as I know is vocabulary - which is vast - something like 1/3rd larger than other languages because of the dual parentage of English and French - and thats before you get into words that have three

Two musicians of this era I do love are Louis Armstrong and Nat Cole - both virtuosos in their own right. Everyone I think knows how important Armstrong is - Nat Cole kinda gets a short shrift - he was probably the best jazz pianist of his

Yes? From the front door of the apartment we lived in, I could see buildings in the City of Long Beach whereas Disneyland was 9.5 miles east. Most nights I could hear the airplane testing at the blast wall McDonnell Douglas - very rarely if

I have the opposite experience - now sure, maybe to your cousin from Cedar Rapids. If I'm taking to another Californian, I'm not gonna tell them Los Angeles, I'll tell them Long Beach, if I'm talking to a Southern Califo

Well, thats annoying. I just bought a M2 Max 16" MBP in mid September. I wouldn't have expected a new revision in the same year. I also swear apple used to have a policy for this situation, but I can't find it now.

The sensor cook modes actually do that, they run a test cycle on low, then dial up the heat for the last bit. It works great. Convincing the boyfriend of that, is harder.
