Yeah that's what got me at first

I just can’t figure why they called this raptor a White-tailed Hawk. 😉#Birds #CorpusChristiTx #Nature

Gorgeous bird! I thought it was a Harris's Hawk at first!

Protein Powders and Shakes Contain High Levels of Lead - Consumer Reports CR tests of 23 popular protein powders and shakes found that most contain high levels of lead.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

It makes sense. I've seen juveniles begging from Mom, and she's like, "you gotta learn to hunt!" Never sure if they make it.

I found those numbers shocking when I heard it.

Meet Otto - he's a sweet boy who likes nothing more than a snuggle.

And this is Thor, he's a pug, not a parrot.

String Bass Replacing Tuba All over New York it has been noticed that, with most of the promi- nent bands. the string bass, alias "bull fiddle", allas "dog house", is replacing the tuba. Leaders agree that the string bass has a far greater carrying power than the tuba, and that it blends much more effectively. Practically all of the exponents of the tuba double in string bass, so the only incon- venlence resulting from the switch will be the difference in sizes of the instrument cases. which take our word for it, is plenty. Billboard April 10, 1926

It is fascinating to me that sometime in the 1920s in the USA, the upright bass replaced the tuba as the bass-note of choice in most bands.

I'm wearing a sweater and hugging my coffee cup close. I love it.

I actually know the vicinity they're referencing. A 20 minute ride from our distillery.

Fantastic History. Interesting the addition of hops.

An ad for "single shot" copper-still rye, made in Warren County, VA "just beyond the summit of the Blue Ridge, "exclusively from rye, hops and barley-malt," with the utmost care.

Quality Virginia rye, as was, 1858 (from the Alexandria Gazette, October 25th). Note the hops, an old Dutch ingredient that still sneaks into some bourbons through their yeast culture, where it's used as a preservative. (A little goes a long way)

Lol. I have been to London now enough times that I now find myself looking at the bumbling tourists with mild contempt and annoyance. As if I lived here, which I do not. #London

Good morning. I will see if I have time to check that out. Always grateful for the recommendations.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.
