89 years old and still teaching people how to cook. What a career. I love the simplicity of the videos he is doing from home like this one.

This thread seems like a good place for this from the White House Correspondents Dinner.

THE AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN PRESIDENTIAL NEWS COVERAGE BY VISUAL JOURNALISTS

"The award recognizes a video or photojournalist for uniquely covering the presidency from a journalistic standpoint, either at the White House or in the field. This could be breaking news, a scheduled event or feature coverage. It includes a prize of $2,500.

The Award goes to
Doug Mills, The New York Times"

"President Joe Biden walks from the podium after his remarks after signing ceremony for the $95.3 billion package of aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, in the State Dining Room of the White House, Wednesday, April, 24, 2024."

From the Judges:
"A somber President Joe Biden — then wrestling with historic challenges, from international crises to domestic calls for him to end his re-election campaign — is centered in the image yet surrounded and visually almost overwhelmed by the physical infrastructure and historic weight of the White House. The only other living human in the picture is looking away from Biden, but the president is not unseen: he moves under the gaze of a reflective President Lincoln, completing this striking portrait of both a sitting president and the presidency itself."

I can't think of any other photograph from calendar year 2024 that rivals this masterpiece.

Can you?

It is absolutely stunning. Historic. Iconic

Frozen section of my normal grocery store. I would think most stores would have it.

How many more egg laying chickens and hens do we have now compared to 6 weeks ago?

Hard to tell unless you have proprietary industry information.

Government data comes out monthly and it lags about 3 weeks.

Here is link to the page where it's published.

USDA NASS

Fortunately, bird flu outbreaks have slowed so supply should be catching back up demand.

If you really want comfort, try some Cole Hahn with rubber soles. You can get black wing tips that are as comfortable as walking shoes.

Guaranteed she has some legal or public relation type of support advising her. Probably funded by Soros or our tax dollars.

I don't doubt that.

Also don't doubt that gang has explained how they will flay the skin from her body before removing her head and moving on to her kids and the rest of her family if she doesn't do what they say do.

Sad to say I don't have a lot of sympathy for her if that's true. At some point, she picked that life knowing how it could end.

Member when Jocelyn Elders was run out of the Surgeon General position for advocating teaching masturbation in schools?

I'm no James Carville fan, but I saw him speak at a very conservative mostly women's luncheon back when that was going on. He said something like "and now they are talking about teaching masturbation in schools. Finally something I could have made an A in." You could have heard a pin drop, and I almost spit my sweet tea out across the table.
