Mrs. Butterworth throughout the years Mrs. Butterworth's is an American brand of table syrups and pancake mixes owned by Conagra Brands. The syrups come in distinctive bottles shaped as the character "Mrs. Butterworth", represented in the form of a matronly woman. The syrup was introduced in 1961. In 1999, the original glass bottles began to be replaced with plastic. In 2009, the character was given the first name "Joy" following a contest held by the company. In 2020, following protests over systemic racism, Conagra Brands announced that it would review the shape of their bottles, as critics viewed them as an example of the "mammy" stereotype. A competing brand, Aunt Jemima, revamped its brand and advertising following the attention on negative black stereotypes. In ads, Mrs. Butterworth's voice has evoked a grandmotherly white woman, and she has been portrayed by white voice actresses. Despite this, some reports had claimed, without citing any sources, that the character was originally modeled on Butterfly McQueen, a black actress who appeared as the maid in Gone with the Wind (1939). As of August 2023, Mrs. Butterworth’s syrup is still being sold with the familiar bottle shape, despite the “brand review” Conagra announced it would conduct back in 2020. According to Dieline, “It’s unclear if Mrs. Butterworth’s brand review is still ongoing, what conclusions Conagra reached, or what changes they intend to make.”

Dog bites reporter on live TV Many people don’t know the difference between the Pit Bull, the Staffordshire Terrier, and the American Bull Dog. Pit Bulls do have a bad reputation in the mainstream media, and are even banned in some countries. Unfortunately, to some extent, the reputation does seem to be somewhat warranted when considering the data behind dog attacks The Pit Bull controversy has been an ongoing debate for over 30 years. When Pit Bulls do attack, it typically results in major injury and sometimes death, so the mainstream media pounces on the opportunity to make headlines. An experienced dog owner would be someone who understands the breed and can give them exercise but always use caution when left alone with other dogs and small children. Again, most of these dogs were bred for aggression; it’s hard- wired into their brain, which makes them unpredictable The American Pit Bull Terrier (APBT) is a dog breed recognized by the United Kennel Club (UKC) and the American Dog Breeders Association (ADBA), but not the American Kennel Club (AKC). It is a medium-sized, short-haired dog, of a solid build, whose early ancestors came from England. When compared with the English Staffordshire Bull Terrier, the American Pit Bull Terrier is larger by margins of 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) in height and 25–35 pounds (11–16 kg) in weight. The American Pit Bull Terrier varies in size: males are normally about 18–21 inches (45–53 cm) in height and around 35–60 pounds (15–27 kg) in weight, while females are normally around 17–20 inches (43–50 cm) in height and 30–50 pounds (13–22 kg) in weight The legal definition of a pit bull is a class of dogs that includes several breeds: American pit bull terrier, American Staffordshire terrier, Staffordshire bull terrier and any other pure bred or mixed breed dog that is a combination of these dogs. Progressive legislation also includes the American bulldog,1 a related breed that shares the same blood sport heritage of bull-baiting. In 1999, the United Kennel Club became the only major kennel club that recognizes the American bulldog. Q: Why do people say that pit bulls "don't let go?" Through selective breeding, pit bulls have developed enormous jaw strength, as well as a ruinous "hold and shake" bite style, designed to inflict the maximum damage possible on their victims. This bite trait delivered winning results in the fighting pit. When the Colorado Supreme Court upheld the Denver pit bull ban in 2005, the high court set aside characteristics that pit bulls displayed when they attack that differ from all other dog breeds. One of these characteristics was their lethal bite: "[pit bulls] inflicted more serious wounds than other breeds. They tend to attack the deep muscles, to hold on, to shake, and to cause ripping of tissues. Pit bull attacks were compared to shark attacks." Temperament: Pit bulls are controversial when it comes to temperament, in part because they can be dogs of extremes. For many, they are ideal companions: playful, willing to please, and moderately active. It is a fun, generally obedient type of dog that loves to play games, especially those that are challenging and physical. Pit bulls are also generally quiet in the house and not prolific barkers. It is a fair watchdog and protector. Although stubborn at times, the pit bull is a fast learner, capable of advanced obedience. The majority of pit bulls lead peaceful lives. However, the pit bull was bred to be a tenacious fighter. According to some, this can lead to interactions and altercations with other dogs and sometimes people. Pit bulls and pit bull mixes are responsible for more human and canine fatalities and severe trauma than all other breeds and mixes combined. Many fatal attacks are carried out by household pets that for unknown reasons attack their owners or other pets. Although the pit bull appears no more likely (probably even less so) than many other breeds to bite, it is more likely to continue an attack. This, combined with its jaw and body strength, can result in disfigurement, dismemberment, or death to its victim. Proponents of pit bulls believe their behaviour depends on how they are raised. They note that pit bulls’ scores on temperament tests are similar to dog breeds considered friendly, such as golden retrievers. Although pit bulls that attack people are in the minority, their fatality record indicates that it is still a breed that should be handled with an understanding of potential aggression. It should be noted that these claims are a traditional and widely accepted generalization about the breed, and the behaviour of individual pit bulls may differ. The chance of being bitten is there with any dog. However, animal attacks often see pit bull-type dogs labelled as aggressive dogs. The truth is that smaller dogs are more involved in bite incidents than pit bulls. However, as these bites do not require medical treatment, they go unreported.

Until Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier on October 14, 1947, it was a commonly-held belief that exceeding the speed of sound — breaking the sound barrier — would destroy an aircraft. Where did these ideas originate? Here’s a quick primer on the sound barrier. What exactly is the sound barrier? Today, we know that the sound barrier is the sudden increase in aerodynamic drag that happens when an object approaches the speed of sound — also known as Mach 1. It’s not a physical or solid barrier. At what speed do you break the sound barrier? The speed at which you break the sound barrier depends on many conditions, including weather and altitude. It’s approximately 770 mph or 1,239 kmh at sea level. Why did people believe the sound barrier was a physical wall? During World War II, pilots reported aircraft tearing apart and instruments freezing when they dove during combat — possibly at the moment they approached the speed of sound. It was described as hitting an invisible wall. In the 1940s, the proper design techniques and aerodynamic details for a successful supersonic aircraft were unknown. Aircraft that are not specifically designed to fly supersonically — those having little or no wing sweep and that have thick wings with blunt leading edges — exhibit a sharp rise in aircraft drag as they approach the speed of sound. This increase comes from shockwaves forming in the accelerated flow over a wing, even though the aircraft itself is not yet exceeding the speed of sound. These shock waves cause pressure fields on the wing (and the rest of the aircraft) and can lead to significant flow separation behind the shock waves. Both of these phenomena can create significant aircraft drag. This shock formation and increase in drag is very sudden and large, and tends to be a “barrier” to any further acceleration of the aircraft. At the time, no aircraft had successfully overcome this drag rise, so some predicted that it might not be possible. Brigadier General Charles Elwood Yeager February 13, 1923 – December 7, 2020) was a United States Air Force officer, flying ace, and record-setting test pilot who in October 1947 became the first pilot in history confirmed to have exceeded the speed of sound in level flight. Yeager broke the sound barrier on October 14, 1947, in level flight while piloting the X-1 Glamorous Glennis at Mach 1.05 at an altitude of 45,000 ft (13,700 m) over the Rogers Dry Lake of the Mojave Desert in California. The success of the mission was not announced to the public for nearly eight months, until June 10, 1948. Yeager was awarded the Mackay Trophy and the Collier Trophy in 1948 for his mach-transcending flight, and the Harmon International Trophy in 1954. The X-1 he flew that day was later put on permanent display at the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum. During 1952, he attended the Air Command and Staff College.

Democrats release campaign ad depicting Alabama Abortion law enforcement forcing women to take pregnancy tests It features two women driving a mile out from the state border when they are pulled over by law enforcement. The narrator says “Trump Republicans” want to criminalize young Alabama women who travel for reproductive care. The officer then asks the driver to step out of the vehicle and take a pregnancy test. Several red-state officials, including in Oklahoma and Idaho, have moved to impose legal penalties and fines for transporting people seeking abortions over state lines. Gavin Newsom, who also has run abortion-related TV spots and billboards and is pushing to make California a legal “sanctuary” for abortions, has said the conditions in red states are “much more pernicious than they even appear.” Abortion in Alabama is illegal. Historically, Alabama's abortion laws have evolved from strict regulations in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to a period of liberalization following the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion nationwide. However, Alabama has consistently enacted legislation aimed at restricting access to abortion. In May 2019 Alabama passed one of the nation's most restrictive abortion laws, the Human Life Protection Act. This law sought to ban most abortions at any stage of pregnancy, with no exceptions for cases of rape or incest, only allowing abortions if there was a serious health risk to the mother. The law was granted an injunction until June 2022 when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, allowing the Act to go into effect. The remaining three abortion clinics in the state were ordered to cease operating. On February 16, 2024, the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos used for in vitro fertilisation should be considered children. The UAB Hospital and other providers ended their IVF treatments in response. This is because couples are now allowed to create a lawsuit for the wrongful death of their embryos. This ruling raises questions about the status of frozen embryos, including whether they can be destroyed and the implications for pre-implantation genetic testing. The decision also intersects with broader debates around abortion and reproductive technology

Many Bears Surround a Tour Bus Talk about a close up view! Bear Safety Tips BEAR In A Building, By A Dumpster, Or Around The Corner Give the bear a clear escape route (do not corner it). Leave any doors open as you back away from the bear. Do not lock the bear in a room In Your Backyard From a safe distance, make loud noises, shout, or bang pots and pans together to scare away the bear. When the bear leaves, remove potential attractants such as garbage, bird seed, or pet food. Ask neighbors to remove attractants. Check your yard for bears before letting out your dog In The Woods If you see a bear before it notices you: stand still, don’t approach and enjoy the moment. Then move away quietly in the opposite direction. If you encounter a bear that’s aware of you: don’t run; running may trigger a chase response. Back away slowly in the opposite direction and wait for the bear to leave.

NASA’s SDO Watches a Sunspot Turn Toward Earth An active region on the sun — an area of intense and complex magnetic fields — has rotated into view on the sun and seems to be growing rather quickly in this video captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. Such sunspots are a common occurrence on the sun, but are less frequent as we head toward solar minimum, which is the period of low solar activity during its regular approximately 11-year cycle. This sunspot is the first to appear after the sun was spotless for two days, and it is the only sunspot group at this moment. Like freckles on the face of the sun, they appear to be small features, but size is relative: The dark core of this sunspot is actually larger than Earth. Sunspots are temporary spots on the Sun's surface that are darker than the surrounding area. They are regions of reduced surface temperature caused by concentrations of magnetic flux that inhibit convection. Sunspots appear within active regions, usually in pairs of opposite magnetic polarity. Their number varies according to the approximately 11-year solar cycle Individual sunspots or groups of sunspots may last anywhere from a few days to a few months, but eventually decay. Sunspots expand and contract as they move across the surface of the Sun, with diameters ranging from 16 km (10 mi)[3] to 160,000 km (100,000 mi). Larger sunspots can be visible from Earth without the aid of a telescope. They may travel at relative speeds, or proper motions, of a few hundred meters per second when they first emerge.

The first Mountain Dew commercial 1966 Mountain Dew, stylized as Mtn Dew in some countries, is a carbonated soft drink brand produced and owned by PepsiCo. The original formula was invented in 1940 by Tennessee beverage bottlers Barney and Ally Hartman. A revised formula was created by Bill Bridgforth in 1958. The rights to this formula were obtained by the Tip Corporation of Marion, Virginia. William H. "Bill" Jones of the Tip Corporation further refined the formula, launching that version of Mountain Dew in 1961. In August 1964, the Mountain Dew brand and production rights were acquired from Tip by the Pepsi-Cola company, and the distribution expanded across the United States and Canada. Between the 1940s and 1980s there was only one variety of Mountain Dew, which was citrus-flavored and caffeinated in most markets. Diet Mountain Dew was introduced in 1988, followed by Mountain Dew Red, which was introduced and discontinued in 1988. In 2001, a cherry-flavored variant called Code Red debuted. Expansions of the product line have continued to this day, including specialty offerings, limited time productions, region-specific and retailer-specific flavors of Mountain Dew Pepsi Soda Pop

Time Lapse of How a Caterpillar Becomes a Butterfly. Butterflies have a four-stage life cycle, and like other holometabolous insects they undergo complete metamorphosis. Winged adults lay eggs on the food plant on which their larvae, known as caterpillars, will feed. The caterpillars grow, sometimes very rapidly, and when fully developed, pupate in a chrysalis. When metamorphosis is complete, the pupal skin splits, the adult insect climbs out, expands its wings to dry, and flies off. Some butterflies, especially in the tropics, have several generations in a year, while others have a single generation, and a few in cold locations may take several years to pass through their entire life cycle. Butterflies are often polymorphic, and many species make use of camouflage, mimicry, and aposematism to evade their predators. Some, like the monarch and the painted lady, migrate over long distances. Many butterflies are attacked by parasites or parasitoids, including wasps, protozoans, flies, and other invertebrates, or are preyed upon by other organisms. Some species are pests because in their larval stages they can damage domestic crops or trees; other species are agents of pollination of some plants. Larvae of a few butterflies (e.g., harvesters) eat harmful insects, and a few are predators of ants, while others live as mutualists in association with ants. Culturally, butterflies are a popular motif in the visual and literary arts. The Smithsonian Institution says "butterflies are certainly one of the most appealing creatures in nature fuzzy yellow caterpillar fuzzy black caterpillar fuzzy white caterpillar flannel moth caterpillar hungry caterpillar hairy caterpillar hawk moth caterpillar how many legs does a caterpillar have hungry caterpillar costume hummingbird moth caterpillar horned caterpillar hornworm caterpillar human caterpillar hairy black caterpillar

World War 2 Animation Timeline in Europe World War II or the Second World War (1 September 1939 – 2 September 1945) was a global conflict between two major alliances: the Allies and the Axis powers. The vast majority of the world's countries, including all the great powers, fought as part of these military alliances. Many participating countries invested all available economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities into this total war, blurring the distinction between civilian and military resources. Aircraft played a major role, enabling the strategic bombing of population centres and delivery of the only two nuclear weapons ever used in war. It was by far the deadliest conflict in history, resulting in 70–85 million fatalities. Millions died due to genocides, including the Holocaust, as well as starvation, massacres, and disease. In the wake of Axis defeat, Germany, Austria, and Japan were occupied, and war crime tribunals were conducted against German and Japanese leaders. The European theatre of World War II was one of the two main theatres of combat[nb during World War II. It saw heavy fighting across Europe for almost six years, starting with Germany's invasion of Poland on 1 September 1939 and ending with the Western Allies conquering most of Western Europe, the Soviet Union conquering most of Eastern Europe including the German capital Berlin, and Germany's unconditional surrender on 8 May 1945 although fighting continued elsewhere in Europe until 25 May. On 5 June 1945, the Berlin Declaration proclaiming the unconditional surrender of Germany to the four victorious powers was signed. The Allied powers fought the Axis powers on two major fronts (Eastern Front and Western Front), but there were other fronts varying in scale from the Italian campaign (the 3rd largest campaign in Europe), to the Polish Campaign, as well as in a strategic bombing offensive and in the adjoining Mediterranean and Middle East theatre.

When Trying to Save a Fish Goes Horribly Wrong Fish are opportunistic, just like other living creatures. If food presents itself in any form, they will eat it. Sure, that food may have been their best swimming buddy the day before, but today he's lunch. It's all part of that great circle of life A fish (pl.: fish or fishes) is an aquatic, anamniotic, gill-bearing vertebrate animal with swimming fins and a hard skull, but lacking limbs with digits. Fish can be grouped into the more basal jawless fish and the more common jawed fish, the latter including all living cartilaginous and bony fish, as well as the extinct placoderms and acanthodians. Most fish are cold-blooded, their body temperature varying with the surrounding water, though some large active swimmers like white shark and tuna can hold a higher core temperature. Many fish can communicate acoustically with each other, such as during courtship displays.

Bear digs a sitting pit to watch her favorite duckies some bears in the wild will dig out a den months in advance of winter Bears are carnivoran mammals of the family Ursidae They are classified as caniforms, or doglike carnivorans. Although only eight species of bears are extant, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats throughout most of the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere. Bears are found on the continents of North America, South America, and Eurasia. Common characteristics of modern bears include large bodies with stocky legs, long snouts, small rounded ears, shaggy hair, plantigrade paws with five nonretractile claws, and short tails.

Car is struck by lightning twice Lightning and CarsDo the rubber tires on your car protect you if you are OUTside the car and you're leaning on it? NO! Like trees, houses, and people, anything outside is at risk of being struck by lightning when thunderstorms are in the area, including cars. The good news though is that the outer metal shell of hard-topped metal vehicles does provide protection to those inside a vehicle with the windows closed. Unfortunately though, the vehicle doesn't always fare so well. There is no safe place outside when thunderstorms are in the area. If you hear thunder, you are likely within striking distance of the storm. Just remember, When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors. Too many people wait far too long to get to a safe place when thunderstorms approach. Unfortunately, these delayed actions lead to many of the lightning deaths and injuries in the United States. Below are tips on how to stay safe indoors and outdoors as well as brochures and other tools to teach lightning safety.

You can see a real process of the transport and pouring of an iron casting at a foundry A foundry is a factory that produces metal castings. Metals are cast into shapes by melting them into a liquid, pouring the metal into a mold, and removing the mold material after the metal has solidified as it cools. The most common metals processed are aluminum and cast iron. However, other metals, such as bronze, brass, steel, magnesium, and zinc, are also used to produce castings in foundries. In this process, parts of desired shapes and sizes can be formed. Foundries are one of the largest contributors to the manufacturing recycling movement, melting and recasting millions of tons of scrap metal every year to create new durable goods. Moreover, many foundries use sand in their molding process. These foundries often use, recondition, and reuse sand, which is another form of recycling In metalworking, casting involves pouring liquid metal into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then allowing it to cool and solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or broken out of the mold to complete the process. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods. Steel Metal
