Chicken thighs on the Weber Performer kettle grill with Vortex accessory.
Internal grill temp was about 600°. Thighs hit around 185° in 35 minutes or so. I cook thighs to a higher temp than white meat the render fat and make them JOOCEEE!!

Odiham Vortex won 8 - 1 against the Cardiff Eagles at Basingstoke Ice Rink on Saturday 12th April 2008.
As part of VORTEX-Southeast, CIMMS Researcher Kim Klockow-McClain visited Alabama and Georgia months after a devastating tornado killed 23 people and injured numerous others in 2019.
She is researching why that storm system was so deadly. She is a societal impacts and behavioral insights researcher whose work supports NOAA National Severe Storms Laboratory.

this is the house of VORTEX. if you do not feel the MAGNETIC PULL, there is clearly something wrong with you. if you do not feel like HORKING when you walk inside, there is something magical about you.
Vortex works as an optical illusion inspired by Bridget Riley's work to symbolise that not everything that you see is how it seems or that not everything you see makes sense at the start. The range of stripes and sizes of the stripes show how things can be hard to figure out but by the time you do they might not even be relevant any more. Its about 1mX1.25m and I used acrylic to paint.
My second try of my first ever attempt at the wire-wool vortex type photo tonight. I've been waiting to do shots like this for ages, but only managed to convince some good friends to come stand under a motorway under pass after a few pints tonight. Reasonably happy, though would have liked to experiment more with lighting the grafitti, but it was too eerie under there!

Keith and I visited The Oregon Vortex and had a spooky good time.
Theories for what happens here include: a lens phenomenon that refracts and disturbs the light in a way that makes optical illusions, or Einstein thought: mass is compressed and decompressed much like a sponge in certain parts of the vortex. There's been no real scientific explanation for what seems to happen here.
For these photos Keith and I stood on this spot with two 7' poles on either ends of the planks. The poles are marked in inches and independently verified to be the same height (using another stick that is 7' long and compared against each one---it actually appears to grow and shrink on the ends, too). I set the camera on a nearby post and turned on the timer and took two photos, one with each of us on the each end. Then I simply cut the photos in half in PhotoShop and pasted them together (with no size adjustment) to make it more apparent that both Keith and I appear to change size. You can see the line where I spiced it, but the camera did not move between shots; Keith and I only switched places.
(There was also a level that was used in the group tour to show that the planks are indeed level at this spot.)
