Should a large pot of soup sit on the range until it cools, or should it be refrigerated hot?

FSIS Advertisement Rotator
Hot food can be placed directly in the refrigerator or it can be rapidly chilled in an ice or cold water bath before refrigerating. Cover foods to retain moisture and prevent them from picking up odors from other foods. A large pot of food like soup or stew should be divided into small portions and put in shallow containers before being refrigerated.

Question: How do I tell how hot my pot is?

Frequently Asked Questions - Lone Star Dutch Oven Society
Place your open hand with the palm down about 3 inches above top of oven; count backward from 450 by 25 until it becomes uncomfortable to hold your hand in place. Count somewhat slowly, each count should be about a second. The number that you reached is the approximate temperature of the oven. I usually start with the three fewer briquettes than the size of the oven on the bottom and three more than the size on the top of the oven, which should result in an oven temperature of about 350º.

My credit score is not too hot, will that hurt me?

Great Lakes Commercial Mortgage Corporation | Wisconsin's Lo...
Most of the lenders we work with look to the real estate for repayment, not to you, and most recognize that being in business can result in actions with adverse effects on your credit score. The management experience of your property manager (who may be you) is very important, as is your financial liquidity and your overall financial condition. In general, these are not credit score driven loans.

ACS :: Frequently Asked Questions About Colonoscopy and Sigm...
No, these two exams are not painful. For the most part, patients are given medicine to sleep through the colonoscopy, so they won't feel anything. Sigmoidoscopy doesn't require medicine to make the patient sleepy, so some patients find the air pressure to be uncomfortable. Air is pumped into the cleaned-out colon so it will hold its normal size and doctors can get the best pictures. While it may be slightly uncomfortable, it should not hurt.

Yup - they do. Some more than others. Some people are more or less sensitive than others, so there is no way to really say how bad a piercing is going to feel to you. But, the point is this - could you handle a really bad pain for 30 seconds? Well, most piercings last even less time than that, and most piercings are not that bad. Yes, they hurt. But it's over so fast, you really don't have much time to think about it.

Does SMARTSTONE withstand heat? Can I put a hot pan or pot on it?

SmartStone
The use of a hot pad or trivet is always recommended. Sudden and rapid change of temperature especially near the edges, as well as direct sustained heating of the top can damage natural stone surfaces. SMARTSTONE may not withstand the direct transfer of heat from pots and pans and other cooking units such as electric frying pans and grills, and some crock-pots or roaster ovens and heat lamps. Therefore, the use of a hot pad or trivet is always recommended.

Do you tune your tops?

Classical Guitars by Fritz Mueller -- Frequently Asked Quest...
Yes, by which I mean that I set the frequencies of the major resonances of the instrument to specific targets that I've developed over the years. In most of my instruments the main air resonance is between F and F#, the main top resonance is between G and G#, and the main back resonance is between A and A#. Nearly all the Hauser instruments that I've examined, including Segovia's Hauser, employ a similar resonance distribution.

DOES IT HELP OR HURT MY CHANCES IF MY FRIENDS HOT BAND FROM THE SAME AREA AUDITIONS?

Hollywood Music Online FAQS
It doesn’t help, and it doesn’t hurt. This is not a competition. Each audition stands on its own, without comparison to others. We are not looking for just one “winner”. Theoretically multiple bands from the same general locale can simplify promotion in some ways, but each band will be evaluated on their own merit.

Most patients find chiropractic treatment makes them feel great. Occasionally, there may be soreness similar to how one feels after working out. Soreness from using muscle for the first time in a while is actually a good thing and resolves quickly.
