Astonishingly, the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner is still scheduled to host Trump later this month. Apparently his ongoing effort to gut the First Amendment doesn’t disqualify him.

"For more than 100 years, the journalists of the White House Correspondents’ Association have enjoyed an evening with the president," the association’s president, Weijia Jiang, said in a statement. "We’re happy the president has accepted our invitation and look forward to hosting him."

Fire From Below

A slight change in perspective can do wonders. In this video, the Slow Mo Guys look at a burning flame from below. They accomplish this by mounting a gas grill upside-down. This small change means that buoyancy can’t simply lift heat and exhaust gases away from the flame source. Instead, the flow pushes out and around the edges of the grill.

The views are, as always, amazing. The billowing flames are mesmerizing–often closer to laminar than turbulent. And the added spectacle of cinnamon combusting in the later segments really does make for the kind of visuals you’d expect in a sci-fi movie. (Video and image credit: The Slow Mo Guys)
