FUN FACT FOR YOU:
Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!

A chef's toque contains 100 folds. Most diners are too busy looking at their food to look all that closely at what the preparer is wearing, but the toque—the traditional hat worn by chefs—actually contains exactly 100 folds. This is not just a nice, round number: it is said that these folds represent the number of ways to cook an egg, though an investigation by Bon Appetit failed to track down where that saying originated.

An assistant principal in Florida and her 17-year-old daughter were arrested Monday for allegedly hacking into school computers to rig a homecoming queen election. 50-year-old Laura Rose Carroll is accused of using her privileged access to the Escambia County School District’s internal system to cast sham votes for her daughter. The teen, who was named Tate High School’s 2020 homecoming queen last fall, also allegedly took part in the fraud. Agents began looking into the matter in October, when hundreds of votes for the school’s homecoming court were flagged as fraudulent, with 117 of them originating from the same IP address. Investigators found that Carroll, an assistant principal at Bellview Elementary School, and her daughter had allegedly accessed the FOCUS accounts of several students. FOCUS is the school district’s student information system. Evidence showed that a total of 246 votes had been cast from accounts accessed by computers inside the mom and daughter’s Pensacola home or from Carroll’s cellphone. (https://bit.ly/3rT5nmq)
