Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Wow. Very sad.
ION, we've talked about how to boil eggs more than once, right?
Use Less Water and Rely on Steam for Perfect Soft-Boiled Eggs
The steam stays at a constant 212F, while adding eggs to a bunch of boiling water cools the water which adds to the time it takes to cook. The more eggs you add, the longer it will take to cook them all, making it hard to get the time right.
I'm not even sure what a soft boiled egg is like!
Kat, that's awful! Poor family, that's a lot of stress.
Huh, somebody in a small plane just buzzed our building. That was disconcerting to see out the windows.
Oh dear, Kat. That is really tough.
I wonder if I putting the eggs in a steamer rack would work. I have had very poor results attempting the soft boiled egg.
I've never tried soft-boiling eggs. I find runny yolks icky, so I probably won't, although who knows maybe someday that will seem less icky to me? Could happen.
That poor family, what a blow.
Yikes, Connie!
Oh, hey, I have a question. People who keep folders of Thank You or Good Job e-mails for review time, how do you bring those to managements attention? I think it might be too late for this year, but I've started at least sorting the e-mails so maybe I can do that next year, since one of my colleagues mentioned specifically that she was sending me a thank you so it could help with my assessment.
I go through my Kudos folder when I do my self eval. "Received praise from PM Smith regarding the new tools developed for project X". Or even if I don't reference an e-mail directly, having those kinds of comminications in one place helps me remember my highs of the year.
Pretty much what Suzi said--sometimes it just hypes me up to be in a bit more "yeah, let me write how awesome I am" ability, sometime I can put something directly in there "reviewer stated my reports are the most detailed, clear, and explanatory of those she reviews for this project"
What tragedy to have your child survive so much and then... not. I don't even know what to think.
Oh, no. My deepest sympathies to the parents.
Oh, Kat, how heartbreaking.
