Mid-Morning Reads for Tuesday, April 3
Good morning! Here’s a recipe. I’m a little obsessed with Alon Shaya’s recipes right now, and that cauliflower is on tonight’s menu at my house.
- Data collected in the 1940 census was used to help identify Americans of Japanese ancestry who were forcibly moved to internment camps during WWII.
- The rate that rents are increasing in Atlanta is outpacing the San Francisco Bay Area.
- There’s a change local control might be restored to Georgia communities, at least as far as regulating fireworks is concerned.
- Calving season for right whales on Georgia’s Atlantic coast just ended, and for the first time, not a single calf was born. That does’t bode well for the survival of the species.
- Reality Winner’s defense wants to subpoena several state and federal agencies.
- Several middle Georgia governments are suing pharmaceutical companies and opioid distributors.
- “This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.”
- The history of the White House Easter Egg Roll.
- Per this column, no, Putin isn’t Hitler – but Trump sure is Neville Chamberlain.
- Of course I had this poster on my dorm room wall.

Hi Teri,
Do you have any interest in writing about what it’s like to be a state Rep (so far)? Like, do you have another job? If so, how do you balance the two jobs? How much time do you spend on being a Rep when not in session? Having an election every two years are you essentially always going to be campaigning (except during the session!)? What does your family think of all this?
If you have the time I would like to second this request. Sausage recipes are optional.
I love to boil my cauliflower in seasoned water, let it steam dry, sprinkle some bread crumbs over the head – shaking it a bit so it get in the flowerets – and then I drizzle a lot of hot browned butter over the whole thing. Very German. Do the same with asparagus some times.
Fresh grated Parmigiano Reggiano instead of the bread crumbs for mine.
A former Wisconsinite ought to use cheese.
The two sticks of butter are allowable to keep my Wisconsinite card per the dairy usage section of the rule book. It also applies under the ‘German Traditions’ chapter.
If it makes you feel better, I also have a baked cauliflower casserole recipe with bacon & shallots covered in a 3 cheese, heavy cream and dark beer sauce.
I’ll believe it when they actually build S.O.M.E.T.H.I.N.G. on the site.

I found a story in my archives about William B. Hartsfield. He was the Mayor of Atlanta for many years, and never met a camera he did not like. https://chamblee54.wordpress.com/2018/04/03/william-b-hartsfield-2/
The Sinclair story leaves little doubt in my mind that they are trying to influence the administration’s opinion if not elicit the Narcissist-in-Chief’s support for the Tribune buyout. And yes this sort of thing has been a problem in the past with one example being the Hearst Syndicate fomenting the Spanish American War thus inspiring our descension into empire building.
