    The NFL and the NBA rely heavily on college athletics for recruiting. Other sports, not so much. Baseball has minor leagues, essentially "farm" systems, to bring up young prospects. Hockey is similar, I think; the U.S. and Canada each have their own minor ice hockey leagues. College soccer is a big thing, especially in the women's game (Title IX and all that). But for men, MLS clubs and others started up academies that are bearing fruit nowadays, and the college system, which operates under slightly different rules for the game, is feeling pressure to get in sync.

    Joel, Lia. I have said this before and I will say it again. This time in caps. A BISCUIT AND A SCONE ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS IN AMERICA!!! A biscuit is savory, and scone is sweet. Plus the actual recipe for the dough is slightly different. Also, we tend to cut scones into triangles here, because we'll pat the scone out into a round disk and then slice it pizza style before baking them separately.

    There are some notable similarities though. Although they don’t have the sugar nor do they use eggs biscuits are still a bread product that uses baking powder as leavening agent. So I would have to disagree that the taste and texture is TOTALLY different. The way they’re actually made is quite similar as well where are you have flour and your fat typically butter that is cut or rubbed into the flour before the liquid component is added and then the dough is cut into rounds for baking in a hot oven. The truth is there is nothing in British culinary tradition more like an American biscuit than a scone and there is nothing in American culinary tradition more like a British scone than a biscuit.

To create flaky layers you would need to fold the biscuit dough a number of times let it rest and fold it again. But the quick and simple biscuit that you make, and it can be either dropped or cut out, is simply brought together quickly using butter and buttermilk it can be patted out into a round and cut with a biscuit cutter and those biscuits are tender (not flaky) just like a dropped version of the biscuit yet they’re still cut. Personally I do not have the time or the patience to fold and create layers to make biscuits.

    ADE is a suffix used to denote a sweetened, fruit- (often citrus) flavored beverage. limeade, and orangeade . The suffix has also been used in brand names, including Kool-Aid and Flavor Aid . Lemonade was invented in 1630 in Paris. Lemonade is called “lemonade” and not “lemon juice” like “orange juice”; because it is a mixture of lemon juice, sugar and water, which is why it's called “lemonade.” Orange juice and apple juice mixed with water and sugar could be called orangeade.

    @@kungfuclub It's actually really simple and if you can make a bechamel, you can make it. Although if you're outside of the US, I'm not sure if you can get the right kind of sausage. Step one, figure out the sausage lol If you can't get "American breakfast sausage" it's not a sausage link in casing, it's just seasoned ground pork in a package so it's cooked as you would cook beef mince for bolognese for example. So in theory you could buy ground pork and season it with our sausage's seasonings (lots of sage, some nutmeg, etc). You'd cook the sausage in a pan (cast iron skillet a plus), breaking it up as it cooks into smallish pieces. After it's fully cooked you add tons of black pepper like double or triple whatever you think is right, and that is VERY crucial lol and if you like spicier food, add a pinch of red pepper flakes, too. Stir it around to season everything. Sprinkle in your flour and cook it off a bit (with the sausage and all) and next you'll slowly add milk about a cup at a time while stirring well until there are no lumps (other than the sausage) and it thicker to about a carbonara sauce consistency. This is the method I use and I'm a southern American who loves to cook and eat lol I do use vegan ingredients now so if you want any substitutes for that I can help there too lol But I swear it's so simple you should be able to find a recipe that works for you. The biscuits, too. I'd avoid "drop biscuits" for a real southern experience go for flaky buttermilk biscuits. Although after you try it like that, go for the drop biscuits in a pinch lol 😂

    When I think of scones, I think of a bread cake with a certain texture to it, with raisins and maybe other dried fruit bits baked into it, and covered with icing. Sometimes biscuits as we Americans know them can be sweet, with raisins baked into them, and topped with icing as well. When biscuits are prepared this way, the only differences I can think of between them and scones are that the biscuits are softer, more gooey, and the shape is round unlike the triangle-shaped scone. In the Southeastern region of America where I live, I've known biscuits to be commonly prepared in three different ways in fast food restaurants--1. the sweet, scone-like types of biscuits that I just mentioned, which are generally called "cinnamon raisin biscuits," 2. biscuits and gravy, which are prepared the same way as those in the picture that you showed us, the white stuff on top being the gravy, and 3. as a sandwich, most commonly either "chicken biscuits" with a fried chicken patty in the middle of the sandwich, "bacon, egg and cheese biscuits" with those things in the middle, or "sausage biscuits" with a sausage patty in the middle. I think that biscuits and gravy pre-dates all of those other ways of serving biscuits. People talk about them as though they are one of the first identifiably Southern foods to ever crop up. In my family, when we bake biscuits at home, sometimes we slice them in half and put butter and jelly on them, or butter and apple butter. Apple butter is another thing altogether. I didn't know that it was unknown outside the Appalachian region until a distant cousin brought his wife from another country to a family reunion and someone had to explain to her what apple butter was. It's a condiment. Basically applesauce which has been baked in spices until it turns a reddish brown. It's really good--it's often used like jam or jelly. So, yeah--just a few cool things about biscuits in America, particularly the South, which I thought I would throw out there in case anybody was interested.

    In Commonwealth nations and Ireland, a biscuit is a small baked product that would be called either a "cookie" or a "cracker" in the United States and most of English-speaking Canada. Biscuits in the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man, and Ireland are hard and may be savoury or sweet, such as chocolate biscuits, digestives, hobnobs, ginger nuts, rich tea, shortbread, bourbons, and custard creams. In Commonwealth nations and Ireland, the term "cookie" typically refers to only one type of biscuit (the sweeter baked dough typically containing chocolate chips or raisins); however, it may also locally refer to specific types of biscuits or breads.[1] Similarly, a "cracker" refers only to a thin and dry "biscuit for cheese". In the United States and some parts of English Canada, a "biscuit" is a quick bread, somewhat similar to a scone, and usually unsweetened. Leavening is achieved through the use of baking powder or, when using buttermilk, baking soda. Biscuits are usually referred to as either "baking powder biscuits"[2] or "buttermilk biscuits" if buttermilk is used rather than milk as a liquid. A Southern regional variation using the term "beaten biscuit" (or in New England "sea biscuit") is closer to hardtack than soft dough biscuits

    @@jwb52z9 Not necessarily. There are plenty of students who go to a conventional university or liberal arts college and study theatre, either as a minor or major, who get some type of related scholarship. Let's be clear though, there's an important distinction between receiving a scholarship - any kind of scholarship - and getting *a full ride*; because I kind of feel Joel and Lia and others might be thinking of the latter when talking about scholarships, when there's much more of a spectrum to it. Yes, there ARE scholarships that cover the full length of a student's undergraduate degree, and fewer people get those types of scholarships, even for sports. Many scholarships, however, are much smaller, anywhere from as much as a few thousand dollars to as little as a hundred dollars; and may only contribute towards the first year of college. A student starting college can and often does have more than one scholarship, coming from any number of sources, but not all, and possibly not even most scholarships that aren't "full rides" are recurring; they're just one time payouts and a student that goes into their Freshman year of college with any scholarships can still end up needing to take out student loans or explore other types of student aid as their time in college continues.

Can't even count how many times I have had a child's eye staring at me through the crack or lying on the ground to look underneath. It also makes it more annoying when you walk into the washroom, pick one of the 10 or so stalls in there (usually near the end, if I am the only one in there), and a second person walks in there and picks the stall right next to you. Like, come on....you had 9 other stalls to choose from! LOL

Many of the Highlanders that settled in North Carolina fought on the side of the Americans during the Revolutionary War. Just one group of Highlanders fought for the British. Flora McDonald's husband and his men fought for the British in North Carolina. They were defeated. So for many, the language used by the Scots and English are present in many communities today. Many of the songs brought to US back in colonial days before the American Revolution are the versions of the 1600s and 1700s. You find the same thing in South Carolina.
