The full moon will arrive at 8:52 a.m. EST on November 14, and will lie a mere 221,542 miles from earth, as meas- ured between the centers of each. Taking size into account, the distance between the sur- faces of the earth and moon will be just over 5,000 miles during this time. The last time the moon was this close to the earth was January 26, 1948, and the moon will not be this close again until November 26, 2034. This Super Moon is a rare and special event, while it will only appear about 7 percent larger than normal, it will be nearly 15 percent brighter than a typical full moon. Even if it does not look like any- thing too special, it is still the event of a lifetime.

Jesus Christ’s Tomb Unsealed

On October 26, 2016 the marble cladding on what is believed to be the tomb of Jesus Christ was removed. After the initial removal, an inspection by the conservation team from the National Tech- nical University of Athens showed only filler material beneath the marble, however after 60 hours of nonstop work a second marble slab, this one with a cross carved into the surface, was discovered. On October 28th, the original Rose-Hulman’s library homepage, which holds the key to a wealth of resources. limestone burial bed was revealed intact.

Andrew Henderson your drink. And in the end, adding milk to tea destroys the very idea Guest Writer of tea as a drink on its own as you overshadow the flavor of the leaves with the taste of cream from the milk. Tea has been a part of human civilization for much of written. The Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not here to tell you about how you invention of tea has been accredited to the Chinese, which by legend can’t put milk in tea, if you want to that’s up to you. But know, that was accidently discovered when the Chinese emperor Shen Nung in by doing so you are greatly weakening such an enticing drink as tea 2737 BC drank from boiled drinking water that leaves from an over- and spatting in the face of the history of tea drinkers before you. head Camellia Sinensis tree had fallen into (Camellia Sinensis is the species of tree that tea leaves are taken from). Whether this legend is true is unknown, but we do know that the Chinese had tea leaves in tombs dated to 200 BC and that by the tang dynasty of 618-906 AD tea had become a large part of Chinese. But throughout this period of early tea drinking milk was never known to be added to the tea. This very British concept of adding tea to milk would actually not start till the 17th century where milk would be added to tea not to en- hance flavor but to actually protect the porcelain dishes tea was poured into that would crack under quick temperature change. This habit of adding milk to tea would become something seen as normal by many western tea drinkers as time passed, to the irritation of many eastern tea drinkers and classical tea drinkers alike. So I ask, now that we no longer need to add milk to protect our tea cups, why do so many tea drinkers still add it? Many state that adding milk enhances the flavor of tea bringing a new dimension to the drink, but I highly doubt that. I believe adding milk actually ruins the flavor of tea. The average temperature of tea is 160°F-185°F (or 71.1°C-85°C), so when you add milk to tea you do two things. You cause the temper- ature of the actual tea to decrease, losing much of the flavor depth that comes from the heated drink. Additionally, you spoil the flavor of the tea because you actually spoil the milk you use. You see, milk curdles at about 180°F (or 80°C) which is well within the average temperature range of tea. Thus, every time you add milk to a cup of tea you are causing You ruined a perfectly good cup of tea is what you’ve done here. some of the milk to curdle, adding a flavor very few find palatable to Photo via stjamestearoom.com Sports 7 The Drought is Over!

The Rush defense was just as elite, allowing allowing 33 rush yards on 27 attempts, recording 9 TFLS (tackles for loss) in the process. The De- fense recorded 5 sacks, 10 QB Hits, one Forced Fumble, and One interception throughout the course of the elite defensive showdown. Linebacker Reuben Foster led the team with 11 tackles, 0.5 Sacks, and 1.5 TFLs on the night. Offensively, Alabama pounded the defense with a strong rushing attack, compiling 216 of their 325 yards on the ground. Jalen Hurts played like a passing tailback rather than a running Quarterback in the game, rushing for 116 yards and a touchdown. Damien Harris and Bo Scar- brough each contributed a little over 50 yards to help the rushing attack. Kicker Adam Griffith was 1/2 on the night, making a 25 yard Field Goal and missing one from 42 yards out. Alabama advances to 9-0 on the season, and 6-0 in SEC Play, continuing to have their way with every opponent they face in hopes of achieving a 17th National Championship. They face a tough schedule to close out the season, playing Mississippi State, UT-Chattanooga, and Auburn, in their final three weeks. MSU and Auburn are both top 25 teams, but it should be no problem for the greatest college football program in existence. As the College Football Season comes down to the wire, Alabama knows that a loss to any of the next three teams on their schedule essentially boots them from competing in the College Foot- ball Playoffs. The Crimson Tide will look to finish the regular season undefeated and compete with three other teams to take home a National Championship this Winter.
