Sales must be down...

Move to Florida to get away from the cold. Apparently I have to go further south because Jacksonville definitely gets cold. Of course not like when I was growing up in New Jersey, the lowest temperature so far has been 17° and it went up to 70 that day

Fruitcake – Will it Last Forever? The USDA says a fruitcake will last two to three months in the refrigerator without spoiling. But how long will it really last? We asked a scientist.

Now is the time to explore some of the timeless questions associated with the holiday season. Let's start with the most obvious one--

Does fruitcake actually last forever? And, if so, is it because of the booze? 🧪 (If you find this interesting, please share it!)

This image, taken with ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), shows the supernova remnant SNR 0509-67.5. These are the expanding remains of a star that exploded hundreds of years ago in a double-detonation – the first photographic evidence that stars can die with two blasts. The data were captured with the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument at the VLT. MUSE allows astronomers to map the distribution of different chemical elements, displayed here in different colours. Calcium is shown in blue, and it is arranged in two concentric shells. These two layers indicate that the now-dead star exploded with a double-detonation. Hydrogen (H alpha) is shown in orange.

You only die twice:

Recent theoretical models suggested that some stars could destroy themselves in two, successive supernova explosions. Now we have direct visual evidence that such doubled stellar deaths really happen. 🧪🔭

Iran can still build nuclear weapons without further enrichment. Only diplomacy will stop it Iran's stockpile of uranium enriched at 60 percent would be enough to make several relatively unsophisticated nuclear weapons. So why does nobody talk about it?
