We tackle some of the more common misconceptions out there that might make bread baking seem too advanced for amateur bakers. It's much easier than you think.

February 18th – 24th 2/18 Lenny Kravitz receives the Music Icon Award during a ceremony at the People’s Choice Awards in Santa Monica‚ CA. “My music wasn’t Black enough. It wasn’t white enough. It didn’t fit nicely inside the box‚ or sound like what was on the radio at the time‚” says Kravitz.  “Music is about bringing us all together. And the whole reason I create and perform music is to amplify love.” 2/18 Jelly Roll begins a run as a mentor on Season 22 of American Idol. 2/21 Foreigner’s founding guitarist Mick Jones announces on social media that he is living with Parkinsons disease‚ While Foreigner are on a North American farewell tour‚ Jones has not performed with the band since ’22. 2/21 The trial of three men arrested in July ‘20‚ charged with attempting to sell pages of hand-written lyrics to songs from the Eagles’ “Hotel California” album (and allegedly lying about the origins of the ownership) begins in New York Supreme Court. Craig Inciardi‚ former curator at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame‚ Glenn Horowitz‚ a dealer of high-end rare books‚ and Edward Kosinski‚ owner of a memorabilia business‚ are accused of trying to “possess‚ transport‚ store‚ and sell such manuscripts.” All three claim they are innocent.  2/21 A sexual assault lawsuit filed against Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler is dismissed. U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan rules that Tyler’s actions in ’75 didn’t present a “serious risk of physical injury” to the plaintiff – the then 17-year-old model Jeanne Bellino. Tyler allegedly fondled and groped her twice. She brought the case forward last November as part of New York City’s Victim of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act. 2/23 Former Mötley Crüe guitarist Mick Mars releases his debut solo album‚ “The Other Side Of Mars.” In ’22‚ Mars retired from touring with Mötley Crüe due to his ongoing battle with ankylosing spondylitis. 2/23 Original KISS guitarist‚ Ace Frehley‚ issues his eighth solo album‚ “10‚000 Volts.” 2/24 Papa Roach’s ballad “Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark)” is their tenth #1 on Billboard‘s Mainstream Rock Airplay chart.

The Biden administration's new rules will all but cut out China from the supply chain‚ however‚ which will make it tougher to find affordable metal suppliers. Color us not surprised‚ but another one of the Biden administration’s “visions” for forcing people to own electric vehicles isn’t working out exactly as planned. This time it deals with supply chain logistics‚ with Bloomberg reporting this week that in the year and a half since passing the Inflation Reduction Act‚ automakers are finding out the hard way that the rigorous criteria for manufacturing batteries using materials from the United States and its free-trade allies could render them cost-inefficient compared to global competitors. Companies like Tesla are instead taking advantage of a temporary shift in the rules to stock up with cheaper batteries from countries like China. The Biden administration’s new rules will all but cut out China from the supply chain‚ however‚ which will make it tougher to find affordable metal suppliers. This‚ in turn‚ will threaten President Biden’s goal to boost the domestic electric vehicle market. Bloomberg writes that mining companies and labor unions insist that without curtailing the influx of cheaper‚ Chinese-subsidized materials‚ the U.S. can’t develop a competitive EV market.Winter Sun Plus is NOW 40% off! Boost your natural defenses with this powerful vitamin D3 and K formula! Meanwhile‚ the higher costs are driving automakers away from EVs. And as battery material requirements are set to double by 2027‚ fulfilling these mandates will be increasingly difficult‚ putting Biden’s ambitious EV strategy at risk. The demand side of the equation also looks less than favorable. We wrote just hours ago about how Ford was slashing prices on its Mach E and Lightning 150. Tesla has been slashing prices to stoke demand for nearly a year now.  Both Ford and GM have said they’re going to curtail their investment in EVs. General Motors‚ who posted better than expected earnings earlier this month‚ said that it plans on changing its product lineup to include more hybrid vehicles‚ drifting away from pure electric vehicles.  CEO Mary Barra said on the earnings call: “Let me be clear‚ GM remains committed to eliminating tailpipe emissions from our light-duty vehicles by 2035‚ but‚ in the interim‚ deploying plug-in technology in strategic segments will deliver some of the environment or environmental benefits of EVs as the nation continues to build this charging infrastructure.” Recall‚ a report from Consumer Reports last year found that electric vehicles have almost 80% more problems and are “generally less reliable” than conventional internal combustion engine cars.  But hey‚ what good is a “free” market if the government doesn’t have complete and total control of consumer choice‚ right Joe?

Three separate attacks this month involving illegals in Big Sky Country Illegal aliens have been arrested following multiple unrelated stabbing attacks in Montana in February‚ according to reports. At least three people have been seriously injured in separate incidents involving illegal alien suspects in Big Sky Country this month. On February 4‚ Flathead County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) deputies were called to the scene of a crime in Kila‚ approximately 10 miles from Kalispell in Northwest Montana. They encountered “an undetermined number of people in need of medical care‚” including at least one person suffering from stab wounds‚ the Daily Inter Lake reported earlier this month. Two suspects fled the scene but were later apprehended by Kalispell Police.Save 40% on DNA Force Plus NOW!

Little information was released about the suspects‚ but Montana radio host Aaron Flint later confirmed they were both illegally present in the U.S. “Flathead County’s Sheriff’s Office coordinated efforts with the US Border Patrol and Homeland Security for the deportation process of two individuals. Due to their violent behavior and immigration status‚ we worked with Federal officials on their removal‚” FCSO explained in a statement to Flint. Flint says a spokeswoman for Flathead County also told him‚ “yes‚ the two who were handed over to Homeland Security were illegally in Montana/the US.” Surprise‚ Surprise‚ Surprise. Stabbing Incident in Flathead Valley Tied to Illegal Aliens https://t.co/c9UPNut9DZ @pvtjokerus @KJJRAM— Aaron Flint (@aaronflint) February 19‚ 2024 On February 10‚ two more bloody attacks involving illegal alien suspects unfolded in Bozeman‚ some 300 miles from Flathead County. Both incidents unfolded minutes apart at around 1:30 a.m. on that Saturday morning. “A man walking home from downtown said two Hispanic men jumped out of their vehicle and began attacking him at the corner of Bozeman and Olive. The victim said the men attacked him with ‘knives or hammers’ and eventually stopped to chase another person‚ allowing the victim to escape‚” KBZK reports‚ citing court documents. Local police were alerted about another assault at around the same time in the same neighborhood. A man told officers he was involved in a fight with two Hispanic men at a bar downtown. The man and his friends were subsequently leaving the bar when the Hispanic men began pursuing them in an SUV. The suspects ultimately tracked the victim down and slashed him repeatedly in the face‚ arms‚ and throat. Authorities were able to identify the vehicle driven by the suspects‚ a Nissan Armada with Idaho plates‚ and located it in Bozeman days later. Police began surveilling the SUV and arrested one of the suspects when he approached the vehicle from a nearby apartment building. “More law enforcement resources arrived at the scene to set up a perimeter around the building. A total of 16 additional men were ordered out of the building‚ detained‚ and taken to secure locations to be interviewed‚” KBZK reports. Andres Felipe Lara Gonzalez‚ 25‚ and Santiago Machado Echeverri‚ 21‚ were each charged with two counts of attempted deliberate homicide and two counts of tampering with evidence and each ordered held on $300‚000 bail. Arrest records showed that detainers were filed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement against both suspects. Dear Bozeman media…the two murder suspects are on an ICE hold.
