Butter

Butter is made by churning fresh or fermented cream or milk. Butter is used as a spread and a condiment, as well as in cooking applications such as baking, sauce making, and frying. As a result, butter is consumed daily in many parts of the world. Butter consists of butterfat surrounding minuscule droplets consisting mostly of water and milk proteins. The most common form of butter is made from cows' milk, but it can also be made from the milk of other mammals, including sheep, goats, buffalo, and yaks. Salt, flavorings, or preservatives are sometimes added to butter. Rendering butter produces clarified butter or ghee, which is almost entirely butterfat.

 

When refrigerated, butter remains a solid, but softens to a spreadable consistency at room temperature, and melts to a thin liquid consistency at 32–35 °C (90–95 °F). Butter generally has a pale yellow color, but varies from deep yellow to nearly white. The color of the butter depends on the animal's feed and is commonly manipulated with food colorings in the commercial manufacturing process, most commonly annatto or carotene.

 

The term "butter" is used in the names of products made from puréed nuts or peanuts, such as peanut butter. It is also used in the names of fruit products, such as apple butter. Other fats solid at room temperature are also known as "butters"; examples include cocoa butter and shea butter. In general use, the term "butter," when unqualified by other descriptors, almost always refers to the dairy product. The word butter, in the English language, derives (via Germanic languages) from the Latin butyrum, borrowed from the Greek boutyron. This may have been a construction meaning "cow-cheese" (bous "ox, cow" + tyros "cheese"), or the word may have been borrowed from another language, possibly Scythian. The root word persists in the name butyric acid, a compound found in rancid butter and dairy products.

If Mark thinks he's getting to eat during lunchtime he's crazy

Chuck Norris lost his virginity before his dad did. Mark Prior was too soft and let his dad get some first.

[Chris]

Mark Prior actually sleeps at night

Mark Prior brushes his teeth twice a day...sometimes THREE times.

MARK PUTS HIS PANTS ON ONE LEG AT A TIME

Every other one, huh?

Update?

Update?

 

Prior's still all of the things that have been said about him.

[seanimal]

Tribune:But Prior took the entire 72 hours available to him before reporting to the Cubs' minor-league camp.

 

Good god, I really f&@*#*^ hate Paul Sullivan.

[NCCubFan]

Breaking news: I plan to be on time for the class I teach tonight. I'm not trying to be early, so I'll have to see if I still have a job tomorrow.

[Balsa]

Obviously Prior doesn't have the "fire" or the "desire to win", that gutless choking dog.

 

We should raze his land and salt his crops as a lesson to other players.

How feasible would it be to salt the Earth around Prior's house?

Latest on Prior from the Suntimes:

 

 

Right-hander Mark Prior, who opened the season on the minor-league disabled list, still has not made an extended-spring start. He last pitched March 28 in a big-league spring game.

What is the deal with Prior this year? ](*,) The more this drags out I find it hard to believe that there isn't some sore of injury that Prior or the Cubs are not disclosing.

Well, he should have thrown on Monday and then today would be his day to pitch again. :shrug:

[Laura]

Gordon Wittenmyer / The Sun-Times[/b]"] Enigmatic Class AAA pitcher Mark Prior, who opened the season on the seven-day minor-league disabled list with shoulder fatigue, is scheduled for a bullpen session today before getting his first extended spring training start, probably Wednesday or Thursday.

 

Despite insisting all spring he is healthy and experiencing no apparent setbacks, Prior has not pitched since March 28 in a major-league exhibition game.

He has to be hurt. Why else would he have gone this long without doing anything?

[Bull]

He has to be hurt. Why else would he have gone this long without doing anything?

 

possibly because he's not hurt. He's fully healed but has no velocity and never will. rephrased: he's done. But as long as he's still under contract the Cubs will try whatever they can.

 

Not saying this is true (in fact I don't think it is), but you asked for an alternate interpretation.

The mystery that is Mark Prior continues. I'm just glad we don't have to rely on the enigma anymore...He only is intersting the same way a car accident is.

No, in the same way that Ashton Kutcher having an actor demolish a brand new Cadillac Escalade just to play a joke on his friend who has a similar looking Escalade is.

 

Pointless, painful, senseless. I hate Dusty. And Ashton Kutcher.
