When it comes to summertime grilling, the stakes are high. The sun is blazing, kids are running wild, everyone is hungry, and all eyes are on you while you tend to an open fire. No big deal, right? While burgers have a reputation for being an easy option to serve when curating a cookout menu, they are incredibly hard to do well, especially at scale. You have hot spots to contend with and flare-ups to manage, knowing that just a couple of minutes separate a perfectly cooked burger from one that looks and tastes more like a hockey puck. That said, in my opinion, the payoff of a perfectly cooked burger is worth the cortisol surge of (wo)manning the grill. One has not experienced true joy until they have nailed a tray of beautifully cooked-medium burgers.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.

Growing up in Southwest Virginia, I heard adults say that the same people who welcomed Jesus on Palm Sunday were shouting "Crucify Him" less than a week later. We don't know if they were the same individuals, but the principal makes a point that unfortunately, General Hospital actress Tabyana Ali is experiencing.
