This Is Why You Can’t Boil An Egg On Mount Everest

You can have soft or hard-boiled eggs pretty much everywhere on the planet‚ but you cannot make them at the highest point on Earth above sea level. This might not be a pressing concern of yours‚ but the laws behind this fact affect the preparation of both food and drinks in many places around the world. There’s no way around those laws‚ because in this house and in this universe we obey the laws of thermodynamics – and you never bet against thermodynamics.So what’s Everest got against eggs&;#63; Well‚ the problem here is the atmospheric pressure. At sea level‚ water boils at 100°C (or 212°F). That is the boiling point – but the boiling point is not a point at all. When subjected to varying pressures‚ the point is a line. The higher you are above sea level‚ the lower the temperature necessary to bring water to a boil.You can use a calculator to work out the exact boiling point at your location‚ but as a handy approximation‚ for every 300 meters (990 feet) of elevation the boiling temperature drops by 1°C (or 1.8°F). The town of La Rinconada is the highest permanent inhabited settlement in the world at an altitude of about 5‚052 meters (16‚600 feet). There‚ the water boils at 82.8°C (or 181°F). Still good enough for eggs but that’s below the ideal temperature to make coffee – although you can still make it.The top of mount Everest is significantly higher than La Rinconada. It is 8‚849 meters (29‚031 feet) above sea-level‚ with about one-third of the atmospheric pressure. Consequently‚ the boiling temperature for water up there drops to 68°C (or 154°F). This is still hot enough to cause severe burns‚ but it is no longer hot enough to cook an egg completely.Both the white and yolk are made of different substances‚ and the proteins coagulate at different temperatures. The white is made of up to 54 percent ovalbumin and that doesn’t coagulate until 80°C (176°F)‚ the yolk needs at least 70°C (158°F) to solidify. The temperature of the boiling water won’t be enough to give you a nice boiled egg.If you are on top of mount Everest and you are really desperate for a boiled egg‚ the only solution is to bow down to thermodynamics and use a pressure cooker. That cooking method will raise the boiling point by virtue of increasing the pressure inside the cooker. As we said‚ you can’t win against thermodynamics – you can only do as it says.  All “explainer” articles are confirmed by fact checkers to be correct at time of publishing.

Falcon Vs Hawk: Do You Know The Difference&;#63;

Falcon Vs Hawk: Do You Know The Difference&;#63;

Birds of prey are some of the most impressive species to fly across Earth’s habitats. From the super speedy peregrine falcon to silent owls and majestic eagles‚ these birds have captured imaginations across the world. But do you actually know the difference between a falcon and a hawk&;#63; What is a falcon&;#63;Falcons are small to medium-sized birds in the family Falconidae‚ which has around 60 species. The most famous member of the falcons is the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus)‚ the fastest bird species in the world that can reach speeds of up to 300 kilometers (186 miles) an hour. To achieve these mind-bending speeds they have sharp pointed wings that fold back against their bodies.One of the biggest differences between hawks and falcons is their size and subtle differences in appearance.  While it varies between species‚ falcons are usually smaller with pointed wings‚ writes the Audubon‚ and they have a more rounded beak shape compared to a hawk.The kestrel has the nickname the &;quot;windhover&;quot; due to its incredible ability to hover in mid-air while looking for prey.Image credit: © Jonathan Eisen via iNaturalist (CC BY 4.0)True falcons belong to the genus Falco‚ which contains around 40 species. Six of these species reside in North America‚ including the American Kestrel (Falco sparverius)‚ Gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus)‚ and Merlin (Falco columbarius). Falcons typically nest on cliff ledges‚ in holes in tree trunks‚ or on the side of buildings including churches and cathedral steeples. What is a hawk&;#63;The family Accipitridae contains the hawks‚ eagles‚ and some of their relatives. There are around 234 species in this family. Unlike falcons‚ which have a largely similar build between species‚ the Accipitridae family has an enormous amount of variation across the species‚ which include the golden eagle‚ the sparrowhawk‚ and the buzzard. To narrow it down further‚ true hawks are in the genus Accipiter which includes species like the Eurasian goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) and the sharp-shinned hawk (Accipiter striatus).Hawks tend to be larger than falcons‚ with shorter wings. They can be found on all the continents apart from Antarctica. While some species do nest on cliffs like falcons‚ the hawk family are more likely to be found nesting in trees. Eurasian Goshawk.Image credit: © Luigi Andena via iNaturalist (CC BY-NC 4.0)The confusionThe relationship between Accipitridae and Falconidae is a little confusing‚ especially when it comes to common names in different countries. For example‚ the peregrine falcon has been called the duck hawk in the USA for many years. Another reason for this confusion is because of the widespread overlapping ranges between many of these species‚ which makes them difficult to distinguish especially from a distance. With anything like this‚ practise makes perfect and there are many guides online to help you learn the subtle difference between each species.

Voices in the forest: a mystical phenomenon with a scientific explanation

American scientists from the Center for Hearing Loss in Washington have solved the mystery of a strange phenomenon wherein individuals‚ while traversing the woods‚ hear their name being called despite the absence of any nearby individuals. Dubbed “voices in the forest‚” this phenomenon has often been attributed to mysticism‚ with many associating such occurrences with ghosts and other supernatural entities. However‚ Live Science reveals that there exists a wholly scientific explanation for this perplexing occurrence: auditory pareidolia. Auditory pareidolia denotes a form of perceptual illusion wherein individuals perceive familiar voices or words in natural sounds‚ such as the rustling of leaves‚ swaying grass‚ or the melody of birdsong. This phenomenon arises when the brain attempts to interpret unfamiliar sounds by matching them with familiar patterns stored within its vast database of sounds and words. Audiologists elucidate that this cognitive process can sometimes lead the brain to select an incorrect template‚ resulting in the erroneous perception of non-existent voices. “Think of your brain as having this big database of patterns. All the words that you know‚ and you’ve ever heard in your life are in there‚” Neil Bauman‚ an audiologist and CEO of the Center for Hearing Loss Help based in Washington‚ told Live Science. “It chooses what it thinks is the best pattern. That best pattern may not be right at all. In fact‚ it could be way out.” Experts note that in most cases‚ auditory pareidolia is not a cause for concern. However‚ if a person begins to hear voices or other sounds in complete silence‚ this may be a sign of a more serious illness and requires referral to a specialist.

Scientists have found new evidence of the existence of dark matter

A group of researchers from the University of California‚ Irvine Department of Physics and Astronomy used computer simulations to show that features observed in real galaxies are difficult to explain without dark matter. This supports the existence of dark matter as the leading model for describing the universe. The group published their findings in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Dark matter is a mysterious substance that scientists believe makes up most of the mass of the Universe. Despite its abundance‚ dark matter does not interact with light‚ making it very difficult to detect. In their study‚ the scientists modeled two different forms of matter: regular matter‚ which makes up everything we can see and touch‚ and dark matter. They found that only adding dark matter to the model could explain the strange features observed in the motion of stars and gas in real galaxies. These features are difficult to explain without taking into account the influence of dark matter‚ scientists say. “The features in galaxies the team found are expected to appear in a universe with dark matter but would be difficult to explain in a universe without it; we show that such features appear in observations of many real galaxies‚” said Francisco Mercado‚ Lead Author‚ Department of Physics and Astronomy‚ University of California‚ Irvine. “If we take these data at face value‚ this reaffirms the position of the dark matter model as the one that best describes the universe we live in.” Another group of researchers‚ who were previously skeptical about the existence of dark matter‚ confirmed the results of their colleagues’ work. Existing hypotheses suggest that dark matter could make up up to 85% of the total mass of the Universe. However‚ since it does not interact with light‚ it has not yet been detected by physical methods. A new study provides indirect evidence for the existence of dark matter. Scientists hope their work will help pave the way for direct detection of this mysterious substance.

Columbia protester asked for 'humanitarian aid' for Hamilton Hall occupiers so they don't 'die of dehydration and starvation'

A Columbia University anti-Israel protest leader held a press conference Tuesday during which she expressed her desire that students occupying Hamilton Hall get &;quot;humanitarian aid&;quot; — you know‚ so they don't &;quot;die of dehydration and starvation.&;quot;While New York City police entered the building Tuesday night and made arrests‚ getting an earful and eyeful of this protest leader and her wish list for her ultra-privileged‚ radical peers is still quite informative. Some might even say entertaining: — (@) A reporter asked her‚ &;quot;Why should the university be obligated to provide food to people who've taken over a building&;#63;&;quot;She replied‚ &;quot;Well‚ first of all‚ we're saying that they're obligated to provide food to students who pay for a meal plan here.&;quot;That's right. Meal plan.The reporter continued: &;quot;You mentioned that there was a request that food and water be brought in.&;quot;If you didn't think the protest leader — garbed in the familiar keffiyeh scarf that's pretty much required clothing for anti-Israel college students — lacked self-awareness before‚ she lets it all hang out from here on in.&;quot;To allow it to be brought in‚&;quot; she said. &;quot;I mean‚ well‚ I guess it's ultimately a question of what kind of community and obligation Columbia feels it has to its students. Do you want students to die of dehydration and starvation or get severely ill even if they disagree with you&;#63; If the answer is no‚ then you should allow basic — I mean‚ it's crazy to say because we are on an Ivy League campus‚ but this is like basic humanitarian aid we're asking for. Like‚ could people please have a glass of water&;#63;&;quot;The reporter‚ refreshingly‚ wasn't buying it.&;quot;But they did put themselves ... very deliberately in that situation‚ in that position‚ so it seems like you're sort of saying‚ 'We wanna be revolutionaries‚ we wanna take over this building — now would you please bring us food and water&;#63;'&;quot;The protest leader replied‚ &;quot;Nobody's asking them to bring anything. We're asking them to not violently stop us from bringing in basic humanitarian aid.&;quot;Another reporter inquired if Columbia was preventing food from getting to the protesters‚ and the protest leader replied‚ &;quot;We are looking for a commitment from them that they will not stop it. ... I don't know to what extent it has been attempted‚ but we're looking for a commitment.&;quot;Anything else&;#63;In response to the Post Millennial's video of the protest leader‚ journalist Jordan Schachtel added on X that &;quot;I did a quick search and found that this lady‚ who refused to reveal her name‚ is named Johannah King-Slutzky. She is a paid instructor &; PhD candidate at Columbia studying 'theories of the imagination &; poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens.' No‚ I'm not making this up.&;quot;The Post Millennial reported that King-Slutsky had been listed on Columbia's website as a Ph.D. student on Tuesday morning‚ but the page was missing by Tuesday evening. The outlet said King-Slutsky's biography read‚ &;quot;My dissertation is on fantasies of limitless energy in the transatlantic Romantic imagination from 1760-1860. My goal is to write a prehistory of metabolic rift‚ Marx’s term for the disruption of energy circuits caused by industrialization under capitalism. I am particularly interested in theories of the imagination and poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens in order to update and propose an alternative to historicist ideological critiques of the Romantic imagination. Prior to joining Columbia‚ I worked as a political strategist for leftist and progressive causes and remain active in the higher education labor movement.&;quot;More from the Post Millennial:King-Slutsky has a long history of activism. In January‚ she attended an event where the head of the UAW was speaking. &;quot;Johannah King-Slutzky‚ a Columbia University graduate student and member of the student workers union within the UAW‚ was one of several attendees who chanted 'ceasefire now' during Fain’s afternoon speech Monday. The union called for a ceasefire in Gaza in December‚&;quot; WHYY reported. “Right now he’s done nothing to earn my vote‚” WHYY reported King-Slutzky as saying‚ because “he has not acted with urgency to stop the genocide in Gaza.” In 2021‚ she participated in a campus strike of graduate student workers.

Russell Brand: Christian or New Ager&;#63;

Russell Brand: Christian or New Ager&;#63;

Russell Brand has been an openly spiritual person‚ but his recent conversion to Christianity has many asking if he’s truly a Christian or simply a New Ager. “He’s certainly a critical thinker‚” Allie Beth Stuckey says. “Over the past couple of years‚ we’ve seen him question a lot of progressive propaganda and I would say just mainstream propaganda.” Stuckey believes it’s possible that Brand’s skepticism has led him down a path toward Christianity. “These powerful institutions are not worth placing our hope and trust in‚ and when you start to realize that‚ when you start to realize that all of these man-made entities are filled with sinful and deceitful people and we still find ourselves longing for someone to be in charge of us‚ longing for someone to give us order‚ longing for someone to tell us the truth.” “That can really only be fulfilled not through the government‚ not through the state‚ not through health entities‚ not through scientists‚ but through the God who created all things‚ who transcends all earthly power‚” Stuckey continues. While no one can truly be sure what Brand’s true intentions are‚ it’s not on us to decide. “I am hopeful‚ I am optimistic in the same way that I was with Kanye West. And as I said last week with Jason Whitlock‚ I do not regret being hopeful about West‚” Stuckey explains. Just as she doesn’t regret being hopeful for Kanye West‚ who has recently announced his new porn website — she won’t regret being hopeful for Russell Brand. “I will pray for him as I pray for all of us‚ and I will pray especially though for someone like him‚ who does have a public platform and will be receiving a lot of push back and a lot of temptation‚ maybe even more than most‚ just that he would stay grounded and rooted in Christ.”

Biden DHS' flight scheme landed over 160‚000 'inadmissible aliens' in Florida inside an 8-month window

Biden DHS' flight scheme landed over 160‚000 'inadmissible aliens' in Florida inside an 8-month window

The Biden administration is quietly loading Florida up with foreign nationals who have no business being in the country by way of the Department of Homeland Security's controversial Cuban‚ Haitian‚ Nicaraguan‚ and Venezuelan (CHNV) mass-parole program. This apparent illegal-immigration workaround‚ which Republicans have called &;quot;unlawful‚&;quot; could prove impactful for the Sunshine State as well as for the rest of the country. After all‚ the DHS' imports are likely to put additional stress on citizen resources in Florida‚ such as hospitals‚ which a recent report indicates were put out $566 million last year on account of illegal aliens. Background The Biden DHS launched the CHNV parole program in late 2022 in an apparent effort to both spare prospective illegal aliens from having to jump the border and to lower the Biden administration's egregious border-jumper statistics. The DHS announced in January 2023 that prospective CHNV migrants &;quot;who have a supporter in the United States‚ undergo and clear robust security vetting‚ and meet other eligibility criteria&;quot; can apply for advance authorization to fly to an interior port of entry in the United States. The program grants up to a two-year parole for up to 30‚000 CHNV nationals per month. A U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of Texas noted in March that by June 2023‚ the DHS had approved 97.5% of the applications for CHNV nationals. U.S. Customs and Border Protection indicated that as of March‚ &;quot;404‚000 Cubans‚ Haitians‚ Nicaraguans‚ and Venezuelans arrived lawfully on commercial flights and were granted parole under these processes. Specifically‚ 86‚000 Cubans‚ 168‚000 Haitians‚ 77‚000 Nicaraguans‚ 102‚000 Venezuelans were vetted and authorized for travel; and 84‚000 Cubans‚ 154‚000 Haitians‚ 69‚000 Nicaraguans‚ and 95‚000 Venezuelans arrived lawfully and were granted parole.&;quot; Upon the implementation of the program‚ 21 states filed suit‚ claiming that the program exceeds the authority of the DHS and its secretary‚ Alejandro Mayorkas; failed to include a notice and comment period; and is arbitrary and capricious. The states' complaint suggested the DHS has &;quot;effectively created a new visa program — without the formalities of legislation from Congress.&;quot; &;quot;The parole program established by the Department fails each of the law's three limiting factors. It is not case-by-case‚ is not for urgent humanitarian reasons‚ and advances no significant public benefit‚&;quot; continued the complaint. &;quot;The Department does not have the authority to invite more than a third of a million more illegal aliens into the United States annually as it has announced with this program.&;quot; Texas also argued that the CHNV program was also harmful because migrants approved under the scheme qualify for state services such as health care and public education‚ reported the Texas Tribune. U.S. District Judge Drew Tipton ruled in favor of the Biden administration on March 8‚ enabling the scheme to keep going. Damning figures On Tuesday‚ House Republicans on the Homeland Security Committee revealed some troubling details about the Biden Department of Homeland Security's CHNV scheme. According to the internal data the committee obtained via subpoena‚ 1.6 million inadmissible aliens were awaiting travel authorizations through the CHNV program as of October 2023. If accepted by the DHS‚ as most are‚ then they would join more than 400‚000 others‚ including the roughly 200‚000 migrants flown into the U.S. then processed by the DHS under the program between January and August — the bulk of whom ended up in Florida. The committee indicated during that 8-month window‚ 91‚821 migrants flew into Miami‚ Florida; 60‚461 flew into Ft. Lauderdale; 6‚043 flew into Orlando; and 3‚237 flew into Tampa under the program. The top 15 airport locations used for the CHNV program also included New York City‚ which received 14‚827 between January and August 2023; Houston‚ 7‚923; Los Angeles‚ 3‚237; Dallas‚ 2‚256; San Francisco‚ 2‚052; Atlanta‚ 1‚796; and Washington‚ D.C.‚ which received 1‚472. — (@) The internal DHS documents apparently indicate that none of the migrants have a legal basis to enter the U.S.‚ explicitly stating‚ &;quot;All individuals paroled into the United States are‚ by definition‚ inadmissible‚ including those paroled under the CHNV Processes.&;quot; Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.)‚ chairman of the committee‚ said in a statement‚ &;quot;These documents expose the egregious lengths Secretary Mayorkas will go to ensure inadmissible aliens reach every corner of the country‚ from Orlando and Atlanta to Las Vegas and San Francisco. Secretary Mayorkas' CHNV parole program is an unlawful sleight of hand used to hide the worsening border crisis from the American people.&;quot; &;quot;Implementing a program that allows otherwise inadmissible aliens to fly directly into the U.S. — not for significant public benefit or urgent humanitarian reasons as the Immigration and Nationality Act mandates — has been proven an impeachable offense‚&;quot; added Green. Jeremy Redfern‚ press secretary for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R)‚ told Fox News in a statement‚ &;quot;Biden's parole program is unlawful‚ and constitutes an abuse of constitutional authority. Florida is currently suing Biden to shut it down‚ and we believe that we will prevail.&;quot; Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
