It's happened already in dribs and drabs. I remember back in the late 60's or early 70' our CO, Bro. Weigel, said that a true Christian wouldn't watch football games on TV because the game is so violent. So I'm sure all the brothers immediately stopped watching after he said that, right ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Will Jehovah’s Witness be discouraged from watching any tv at all soon?
by Addison0998 ini know it sounds kinda stupid and dramatic, but lately there’s been a lot of suggestive content about not watching tv.
the broadcast was telling people that watching tv snares you into getting an attachment to characters, (the one where the crazy sister prayed for a tv character).
and today this watchtower telling people that the only news that should be watching, or even interested in watching is the broadcast or on jw.org news room.

Anyone Tried "Sous Vide" Cooking?
by Simon ini like a nice steak but cooking one can be a little intimidating and the results hit and miss especially when it comes to getting the right temperature so getting it wrong can be an expensive mistake.
can anyone do that "finger and thumb together to check the doneness" thing?
i can't .... so i came across this cooking technique called "sous vide" which cooks food (in a sealed vacuum bag) in a warm water bath, even steak.

By the way, if you want a slow cooker with much better temperature control than that thing on your kitchen counter, use you OVEN at the lower setting you usually ignore!
True, I've lately gotten into roasting a chicken at 200-250, depending on the size of it, as even BBQ experts say, slow and low is the best way to go. I always roast a chicken breast side down, but with a low oven temp, it really doesn't matter. No dry meat at all.

I remember when the "personalized Borg plates" used to read YHWH
Question: I get the JW Org thing, but what does the number 4 have to do with the Borg?

Simon - I don't think that's really possible with an oven and it's hard to get 'good', never mind 'perfect'. The outside will be overcooked in order to get the middle cooked to the right temperature (or else it's raw)
I beg to differ, If you know folks who like to pan sear their steaks to give it the "crispy" like you get in restaurants, all I do is rub down the steak with olive oil, salt and pepper, put a piece of foil on a cookie sheet, put it in the oven and cook it on one side longer to get the "restaurant crispy", then according to thickness flip it on other side when necessary, the middle comes out to my liking (since I'm the one cooking and monitoring it)
I like a medium rare steak myself. The "outside" as you say is never "burnt to a crisp", you just have to keep an eye on it and cook it to your liking, some people like burnt to a crisp an some people like a well done steak, which is leather and a waste of money an time if you ask me.

I remember a few weeks ago on Rachel Ray's show she had a guy demonstrate cooking a steak the sous vide way, the thing is after he took it out the bag, which he said cooked for an "hour" he then put the steak on the grill !!
I put a steak in the oven for 20-30 minutes, depending on the thickness and it's done! Why wait more than an hour for one steak, to me makes no sense.

Just as Drumpf supporters stick by him no matter what he says, Dubs will eat up anything the seven old guys put out there. If the Borg and Drumpf came out with the same belief of 2+2=5, the blind followers will believe it.

You may be a little confused. Do you think people support him because he is brilliant?
All the folks that turn out at his rallies, they think he's friggin' genius, just like he does. They think he's the best POTUS ever, just like he does.

two biological sisters in the cong I went to, one was skinny one was overweight (almost obese), guess which one was a preemie when born.
Also, I've heard Al Roker say, I think he mentions it in one of his books he was a preemie also, I'm sure you remember how he looked before he lost weight, I'm not saying your daughter is going to be overweight, but when you look at the two folks I mention, you would hardly suspect them to be underweight at any time in their life. Your daughter looks great, no more worries, no need to say she's on the road to recovery because she already has.
