That is correct. Also, they may or may not have rescheduled CitizenCon so that Sandi and Chris could attend the premiere.

The strange thing is that they tweeted a still from the “Vic tells his parents he rocks for the devil” scene, so at one point they planned to include. I wonder if the editor was like “No way I can salvage this.”

Yep. But I'm pretty sure Item 2.0 isn't even in because, amongst other things, it was supposed to solve the whole "render every object on every computer" issue that CIG has been trying to solve for years but have only managed to throw magical words at.

There's a quite bit more to that story than what I mentioned, and it's a lot more depressing and sad. And more than two sources have confirmed most of the details of that sad unspoken tale.

What I said was consistent with what they said. However, yes, I should have explained that beat better.

I was looking for something not the whole sad story, not a casual "oh and here he's a car salesman", and not "oh and here he's a car salesman here's what I think about that". I'll have plenty of time for opinions soon enough.

I got a sous vide thing for Christmas and tried it out on some steaks the other day but I got sidetracked by oven roasted green beans and we ate them all before I remembered to pull the steaks out and put a sear on them lol

e: the steaks ended up great

One of our favorite things to do with our Anova is cook a London broil for like 12 hours at 131F, give it a quick sear, cook some peppers and onions, warm up some tortillas, and boom, steak fajitas with less than 10 minutes of actual work. Just vacuum seal the meat the night before and throw it in the water bath before you leave for work.

The leftover meat is also fantastic next day for an easy steak salad with some greens, corn, black beans and peppers. Little chili lime dressing and you're set.

I chase my kill over the side of a local cliff and then scavenge what's left a few days after the local predators have had their fill.

Connye G. Morgan, 60, pleaded guilty this year to tax fraud charges. Mark A. Bailey, 52, was convicted in May of hiding from the IRS more than $700,000 in strip-club door charges, cocktail tabs and tips skimmed from dancers.

Prosecutors said the two went to elaborate lengths to hide the sources of their money, stashing $300,000 in cash in a safety deposit box and claiming their Century City club was financed by former Lakers star Magic Johnson and Lakers owner Jerry Buss. Both denied involvement in the club. Bailey's attorney said his client is innocent and will appeal the verdict.

quote:

A stripper who performed well into her 40s, Morgan saved enough money in tips to open a teen dance club called Jagg in Lake Forest. The club catered to Christian teens--youths who whiled away weekends sipping soft drinks and gyrating under flashing lights. The place made little money because pastors would ask to bring groups in free of charge.

quote:

Bailey, who had worked previously as a computer-systems engineer, had grander plans for the venue. He convinced Morgan to convert it into Captain Creams--a bikini bar where patrons downed beer and mixed drinks as scantily clad women wrestled in pits of shaving cream.

quote:

Two years later, Bailey and Morgan opened a club in Corona, using more unreported profits, prosectors said. In this case, prosecutors said that Bailey's lawyer, Alan Curtis, hid $300,000 in profits in a safety deposit box before eventually paying the club's lease with it. Curtis has since pleaded guilty to conspiracy and testified against Bailey at trial.

quote:

In 1997, Bailey filed for bankruptcy protection. Two years later, Jagg was sued by the owners of the Corona strip club property, who alleged Jagg failed to make payments on the property. A judge ordered that Jagg pay the plaintiff $1.6 million.

Morgan and Bailey separated in 1999.

The Anova is the one I got! I remain somewhat unconvinced for nicer cuts like tenderloin, but so far I'm really digging this thing. Looking forward to trying it on some other things, but the ability to "set and forget" a lot of these really makes cooking so much more flexible.

Partly though I'm a grumpy old man who believes in doing things "the right way" so it's taking a little bit of getting used to. Feels like cheating.

Yeah but what do those clowns at DICE really know? From the second an idea springs from the Master of Spaceships’ fertile imagination, fully matured and armored like Athena from Zeus’ skull, to the final glorious approval by Chris Roberts himself after repeated designs, revamps, “unapprovals”, and refinements, two or three years may have passed. Designs like the 890 Jump, sold years back, may stretch 5 years from start to release.

Fidelity perfected demands no less.

While I'll always enjoy cooking with gas busting out the cast iron for virtually any purpose is almost always accompanied by my induction stovetop. What started as a temporary solution a few years ago has turned into what may very well be my preferred cooking surface.

While I'm sure many people would argue that heat's heat cooking with induction is just so drat nice for everything from the power and control to the cleanup.

Clearly you've forgotten about the very serious and very important reality TV show "The Next Great Starship".

Without it we wouldn't have been able to watch Chris all but foam at the mouth as the ship that he preferred fell behind the anime hair curler. Nor watch as people started to scratch their heads and wonder how a model of such high quality could be produced by a small team in a fraction of the time as the clunky mess' being pushed out by CIG's multi million dollar art department.

Or CIG just deciding to not bother putting the ship into the game.
