  1. Internet debaters scramble over best way to take eggs out of a carton 10 hours ago Iggy Monda TODAY When someone asks you how you like your eggs, they're usually trying to find out how you prefer them cooked: scrambled, fried, or poached? But a raging food debate has taken over the Twittersphere, that has social media users cracking up over a surprisingly simple quandary: What is the proper way to unpack a carton of eggs? Over the weekend, Twitter user Brian Faughnan posted a photo of an egg carton and asked egg-eaters if they unpack their cartons from right-to-left or from left-to-right. The resulting discussion has led to an egg-splosive debate across Twitter, the likes of which we haven't seen since that viral toast-cutting dispute. One might say there is no right way — an egg on the left or right side of the carton is still an egg. But in the past few days, many have taken to Twitter and joined one of four very distinct egg-unpacking camps: left to right/right to left, from the center out, from the outside in or, well, just randomly. Wait, what? You can grill eggs? Play Video - 0:38 Left to right or right to left Many people seem to think that plucking eggs from one side to the other is the best method because it's the most logical. Americans are accustomed to doing things in order, like reading from left to right. A few tweeters even suggested that they snap the carton in half when it gets to the halfway mark to save space and stabilize the carton. From the center out Those looking to find some balance in their fridges (and maybe just in life) fell into this camp. By grabbing eggs from the middle outwards, the carton remains balanced on the sides — unless, of course, you only end up with one egg at some point! But tweeters who follow this method noted that you don't have to worry about the carton accidentally falling as a result of an unruly weight imbalance. Keeping things even Like most works of art, egg cartons should also have a center point of gravity. Twitter users with this mindset answered Faughnan’s initial post with the idea that having no extra mass on the outside of the carton equated to a decreased chance of unruly spillage. A few Twitter innovators came up with ideas such as arranging the eggs in a zig-zag pattern, saying this symmetrical design would keep the weight evenly distributed. See the amazing things Olympic athletes eat for breakfast Play Video - 1:45 All over the place Not everyone is that methodical about egg carton unpacking, however. Many chimed into Twitter saying they just confidently pluck eggs out at random. This is also Twitter we are talking about, so there were plenty of silly and downright nonsensical answers. While hatching a plan on how to take eggs out of a carton is important, maybe people should stop being so hard boiled and just get cracking.

  2. Lawmaker wants Bigfoot made state symbol, pictured on license plates by Alex Burch, KEPR-TV News Wednesday, January 31st 2018 Photo: MGN Online OLYMPIA, Wash. - Sasquatch may or may not be roaming through the woods of Washington state right now, but a bill is trying to make Bigfoot one of the state symbols. State Sen. Ann Rivers wants Bigfoot to be named our state cryptid, which is an animal that hasn't been proven to exist. Whether you're a believer or not, Washington has the highest number of Bigfoot sightings in the country, and Senator Rivers said passing the bill would be a way to recognize Sasquatch's contributions to the state and preserve Bigfoot's legacy. Rivers even announced new legislation Tuesday that would create a Sasquatch license plate. Revenue from the plates would go to park maintenance and improvements. http://wjactv.com/news/offbeat/lawmaker-wants-bigfoot-made-state-symbol-pictured-on-license-plates
  3. Documentary Telling Story of Abused Horses Will Air Locally January 31, 2018 1:00 am· MEADVILLE, Pa. (EYT) – A short film focusing on the plight of several horses that were severely neglected in Clarion County will be airing this spring in Meadville, Crawford County. The “Spotlight Rescue Series: The Hanging Barn” will appear during the Equus Film Festival’s Meadville Tour Stop on April 21-22. “The Hanging Barn,” one of several films scheduled to air that weekend, is about 11 horses that were left in horrid conditions in a barn in Strattanville in 2016. Six of the horses made it through the ordeal and are now healthy and happy; however, five of them had to be humanely euthanized. For Bev Dee, of Bright Futures Farm in Cochranton, it began in May 2016 when she received a call from the Clarion County Sheriff’s office asking for assistance with rescuing 11 horses from the Strattanville, Clarion Township property. The horses had been locked inside a dark barn and neglected for so long their hooves were over a foot long and curling like elves shoes, according to Dee. “Five were so severely neglected that there was no hope of saving them,” stated Dee. The horses lived in squalor for at least three years admitted their previous owner, a Corsica man. Dee had hoped to save all 11 horses but quickly realized five of them were too long gone to be rescued. Heather Reichel, owner of Reichel Films and Zeppelin Views, of Meadville, teamed up with Bright Futures Farm and JA Media Connections, of Camden, S.C., to create the documentary. “Spotlight Rescue Series: The Hanging Barn” was shot by Reichel and won two Winnie awards at the December 2017 Equus Film Festival in New York City. The film is also available on DVD. In addition, it is being produced as a feature-length film and will premiere in New York City in November 2018. The EQUUS festival, founded in 2013 by Lisa Diersen, showcases films, documentaries, short films, music videos, commercials, art, and literature that feature horses. “I’m really honored to be part of all of it,” Reichel said. “It was very hard to look at the photos of those horses and seeing what they had to endure, but the great thing is, for those six that survived, they have homes and are doing well.” “We are really looking forward to the film festival coming to Meadville. What’s great is this gets the word out about what’s going on and will help Bright Futures’ mission.” “This is the hardest part of what we do. Eleven horses lived in squalor for at least three years. We found poor quality hay just two feet out of reach of some of them. They had no water,” explained Dee. “Today, they’ve all found homes, and they all look great now,” Dee said. “It took about one year for their feet and hooves to return to normal. Looking at them today, you would never know what they went through.” In October 2016, Dee reported the six horses rescued were thriving due to a tremendous outpouring of support. The horses underwent multiple dental procedures and battled some serious ailments. “Tanner, the one who looked the most defeated when we arrived, battled a severe case of ulcers for four months,” Dee said. Tanner finally had his fourth – and last – gastroscopy by October 2017, according to Dee. The Corsica man pleaded guilty to five summary counts of animal cruelty before District Judge Duane L. Quinn on May 16, 2016, and was ordered to pay a $50.00 fine for each of the five horses that were euthanized. Tickets are available at the door or at EquusFilmFestival.net.

  5. Pet Health 16 hours ago Dog suffers burns, swollen eye after being dyed purple, animal services says By Elizabeth Zwirz | Fox News Violet, a white Maltese mix, suffered a number of physical injuries after she was colored purple with human hair dye, according to an animal services team. (Pinellas County Animal Services Facebook) An animal services team in Florida is pleading with pet owners after a dog suffered burns, eye swelling and nearly died after being colored purple with human hair dye. Pinellas County Animal Services shared the cautionary tale Tuesday on Facebook, warning people against using such products, despite the growing popularity of “funky styles,” because they are toxic and can cause both internal and external injuries to pets, the team said. CAUTION: GRAPHIC IMAGES Three months ago, Violet, a white Maltese mix described as a “little 5 pound ball of attitude,” came to them visibly hurt after she was dyed purple, according to the post. “Violet’s eyes were swollen shut, she was limp and listless, she had obvious burns to her skin – we gave fluids, pain meds and we gently washed as much of the chemical dye off as we could, we bandaged her up,” the post said. “Then we waited – Violet went home with our veterinarian and we waited.” The team said they were “amazed” after learning the pup survived the night and “was alert and freely offering kisses.” But once they began to shave her fur, they found that her damaged skin started coming off, exposing painful wounds. “Good thing Violet was peacefully anesthetized,” the post said. “It was so much worse than we initially thought – how would this little dog make it through?!?!” But she did. And after months of medication, extensive care and faith, the team reached “the silver lining.” “Violet began to tell us what to do – it started with a little noise; not really a bark, not really a cry. But then she found her voice and she never, ever, EVER stopped,” the post said. The pooch seemingly took charge of the office, walking around with the vet as she pleased and “visiting each office requesting treats or hugs or gentle pats,” the team said. “It was clear – Violet was on the mend and she wanted everyone to know it.” And despite lingering fears over potential complications and her long-term condition, Violet turned out just fine, the post said. “When the final badges came off we breathed a collective sigh of relief – Violet was beautiful. She will always have her own individual style and that’s just fine with her new owners, who specialize in beautifying pets.” And even though Violet’s story seemed to have a happy ending, the team urged pet owners to consider the products they use “or you could be putting your pet’s life on the line.” http://www.foxnews.com/health/2018/01/24/dog-suffers-burns-swollen-eye-after-being-dyed-purple-animal-services-says.html
  6. Pennsylvania ranks most improved for animal protection laws by Ron Musselman Wednesday, January 24th 2018 Gov. Tom Wolf said Wednesday that Pennsylvania demonstrated marked improvements as two national organizations recently issued reports ranking animal protection laws in all 50 states. (MGN) HARRISBURG -- Gov. Tom Wolf said Wednesday that Pennsylvania demonstrated marked improvements as two national organizations recently issued reports ranking animal protection laws in all 50 states. Both the Humane Society of the United States and the Animal Legal Defense Fund report that Pennsylvania’s Act 10 of 2017, the animal abuse overhaul package Wolf signed into law in June 2017 was a key reason why Pennsylvania’s rankings improved. “With the signing of Act 10 of 2017, we began to hold our pet and animal owners to a higher standard of humanity,” Wolf said in a news release. “Recognition of Pennsylvania’s efforts by the Humane Society and Animal Legal Defense Fund confirms that my administration, our General Assembly, and strong advocates worked well together to establish laws that protect the pets and animals we love and whose care we have been entrusted with.” According to the Animal Legal Defense Fund report, titled “U.S. Animal Protection Laws Rankings,” Pennsylvania was the most improved state in 2017, jumping 20 places to No. 24 on the list ranking the animal protection laws of all 50 states. The Animal Legal Defense Fund noted, “This achievement is thanks to major improvements like a new felony provision for first-time offenders of aggravated animal cruelty (including torture), and granting civil immunity to veterinarians who report suspected animal abuse.” For the 10th year in a row, Illinois ranked first, followed by Oregon, California, Maine and Rhode Island. Pennsylvania’s position moved up from No. 18 to 15 on the Humane Society of the United States’ Humane State rankings. Animals are protected by a combination of state and local laws, which vary widely in terms of strength. Act 10 of 2017, Pennsylvania’s comprehensive animal protection law, was the first significant strengthening of Pennsylvania’s animal protection statutes in nearly 30 years. The package of bills included Libre’s Law, named after one dog whose shocking story of mistreatment and miraculous recovery helped spur a broader discussion of animal protection. Five key components of the legislation included improved tethering conditions for outside dogs, additional protections for horses, increased penalties for animal abuse, provisions that mandate that convicted animal abusers forfeit abused animals to a shelter, and granting civil immunity from lawsuits for licensed doctors of veterinary medicine, technicians, and assistants who report animal cruelty in good faith.

  8. 2017 Ford GT Nets $2.55 Million for Charity at Barrett-Jackson Automobile Rory Jurnecka 11 hrs ago Slide 1 of 26: 2018-Barrett-Jackson-Charity-Auction-Evan-Klein_0294.jpg 26/26 SLIDES If you didn't get an allocation for a new Ford GT last year, how much would you pay to join the chosen few that did? One wealthy bidder at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale decided $2.55 million was a fair figure, though the fact that all proceeds benefited charity undoubtedly helped the bidding along to many multiples of fair market value. © Automobile Magazine Staff Barrett-Jackson is just one of the several auctions running during what's become known as Scottsdale Auction Week, but no other auction house touches this kind of volume. With over 1,700 vehicles crossing the block all through the week, Barrett-Jackson sold $106.8 million worth of cars, plus another $10 million in charity vehicles and automobilia. The sell-through rate was an exceptionally strong 99.1 percent, largely due to the high volume of cars being offered without reserve. No other auction during the Scottsdale Auction Week matches Barrett-Jackson's attendance or sheer venue size either—the event is more like a county fair than a collector car auction, with hundreds of vendors selling everything from jumbo-sized charbroiled turkey legs to massaging adjustable beds and decommissioned slot machines. © Automobile Magazine Staff Atop the non-charity lots this year was a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder, which found a new home with a $1,430,000 bid. Runner up was another European car, despite the sale's large American car bias, this time a 1952 Ferrari 212 Europa which earned $1,100,000 after commission. A 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Cutaway Coupe—a former GM auto show display item which was discovered recently in South Africa—tied the Ferrari at $1.1 million, despite being a static vehicle. One of our favorites to be sold was the very first 1966 Shelby GT350 prototype, complete with blue vinyl roof—it made $605,000. © Automobile Magazine Staff Other cars of note included the first production 2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt, a car that recently debuted at the Detroit Auto Show and pays tribute to the Steve McQueen film of the same name. © Automobile Magazine Staff The Bullitt hammered at $300,000, with all proceeds benefiting the Boy's Republic school for troubled youth, at which McQueen was once a boarding student. The first production 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 was also sold for a heady $925,000, also with proceeds going to charity. © Automobile Magazine Staff The top ten sales results for 2018 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale can be found below. 2018 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Top Ten Sales 1. 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder (Lot #1415) - $1,430,000 2. 1952 Ferrari 212 Europa (Lot #1378) - $1,100,000.00 3. 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Cutaway Coupe (Lot #1413) - $1,100,000 4. 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 (Lot #1409) - $$770,000 5. 1966 Shelby GT350 Prototype #001 (Lot #1406) - $605,000 6. 2015 MTI Racing Boat (Lot #1426) - $548,900 7. 2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition (Lot #1414) - $495,000 8. 1968 Chevrolet Corvette L88 (Lot #1418) - $495,000 9. 1958 Chevrolet Corvette Custom Convertible (Lot #1348) - $440,000 10. 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge Ram Air IV Convertible (Lot #1412) - $440,000 SEE SLIDES ;

(MGN) TIMBLIN – Two Jefferson County residents face charges after they were accused of abandoning two dogs at their home without food and water. David Williams, 39, and Gia Weyandt, 34, both of the 100 block of Church Street, Timblin, face aggravated cruelty to animals and neglect of animal charges as a result of the new Libre’s Law restrictions regarding animals in the state. According to a criminal complaint, officials found one dog dead upstairs, and another was seized from the property and is currently at Willow Run Animal Sanctuary in Brookville. The complaint said state police contacted Jefferson County’s humane police Officer Debbie McAndrew on Dec. 22 concerning a complaint about an abandoned dog.

(MGN) WAPWALLOPEN, Pa. -- Three dog breeders in Pennsylvania are facing 130 criminal counts stemming from a raid in which authorities said some dogs were found outside in freezing temperatures and others were inside in squalid conditions. State police say they were called to the Conyngham Township property Dec. 31 after a report that 11 dogs were outside in temperatures that neared zero degrees. Wayne Harvey, a humane officer with the Luzerne County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals who filed the charges, says the dogs' water was frozen solid and "they were licking it for moisture." The SPCA and state police later served a search warrant and reported finding 19 more dogs in filthy conditions. Authorities say the defendants face multiple counts of aggravated cruelty to animals and animal neglect.

By:Gwen Fowler Date:7/14/2014 Keywords: soul food, seafood, food & drink, south, Southern Nothing is more perfect for a Lowcountry meal than Frogmore Stew, a mouthwatering, one-pot meal of shrimp, corn on the cob, new potatoes and smoked sausage. Those four ingredients are the basics, but sometimes live blue crab or stone crab claws are added, as well as onion. Seasonings usually include seafood seasoning of your choice, beer and hot sauce. Frogmore Stew is named after a Lowcountry community on St. H... Don’t worry about failure. You just want to take care not to cook the ingredients to mush, which is why the potatoes, corn and sausage go into the pot before the shrimp. As with all dishes, the freshest ingredients will result in the best taste. Frogmore Stew is especially delicious served outdoors, making it the perfect dish for a casual get-together. Since it’s a bit messy, lots of folks like to spread newspaper on a table outside so cleanup is quick and simple. Frogmore Stew is perfect for outdoor gatherings with friends... So where did the funny name come from? (No, no frogs are in the stew.) The dish originated in a small Lowcountry fishing community on St. Helena Island named Frogmore, near Beaufort and Hilton Head. It’s also sometimes called Lowcountry boil or Beaufort stew. Frogmore Stew is a perfect choice for a relaxed meal for a large crowd. The recipe below serves about six, but it’s easy to adjust. Just allow about 1/2 pound of shrimp and about 1/4 pound of sausage per person, and several potatoes and pieces of corn. For a true taste of the Lowcountry, look no further than Fro...

  19. Man Charged with Animal Neglect under Libre’s Law January 4, 2018 12:26 am· BANKS TWP., Pa. (EYT) – An Indiana County man is being charged with Neglect of an Animal under Pennsylvania’s newly strengthened animal protection laws. Punxsutawney Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Paige Pifer reported January 2 that Rudy J. Wengerd had an animal tethered for more than 30 minutes in temperatures lower than 32 degrees. Under Libre’s Law, new legislation strengthening Pennsylvania’s animal protection statutes signed into effect on June 29, 2017, an animal cannot be tethered outside for more than 30 minutes whenever the temperature exceeds 90 degrees or falls below 32 degrees. Other provisions in Libre’s Law relating to tethered dogs include: No more than 9 hours tethered in 24-hour period Tether must be the longer of 3 times length of dog or 10 feet.

  21. I have put out a bird feeder with sunflower seeds for years In the past month or more checked feeder and it was only about half empty.

  22. CBS News December 30, 2017, 6:51 PM Vandals destroy 50 beehives in Iowa, killing at least 500,000 bees SIOUX CITY, Iowa -- The future of a honey business in Sioux Falls, Iowa, is uncertain after vandals destroyed dozens of their beehives, CBS affiliate KMEG reports. The owners of Wild Hill Honey said they discovered that 50 beehives were destroyed when they went to clear off snow on Thursday. The owner, Justin Engelhardt, told KMEG that the incident basically wipes out his business and that it will be impossible to recover from. He said that thousands of bees died from vandalism. "I knew it was going to be bad we went around the shed every hive was knocked over, dead bees in the snow, it was terrible," Englehardt said, adding that the couple's shed was also damaged in the incident. He said a window was broken and the lock was damaged. Engelhardt said there was a security camera installed but it stolen during the incident. Police told the station they discovered fingerprints at the scene and an investigation is ongoing. Engelhardt told The Associated Press that at least 500,000 bees were killed in the incident, and that the estimated cost of damage was between $50,000 and $60,000.
