Optional stabilizers. To make a sturdier meringue, your recipe may direct you to add an acidic ingredient such as cream of tartar, white vinegar, or lemon juice. Caution: Donât use a copper bowl if youâre adding acid to stabilize your meringue; it will react with the copper and discolor the egg foam. Humidity hurts.
Thums Up is a brand of cola in India. The logo is a red thumbs up. It was introduced in 1977 to offset the withdrawal of The Coca-Cola Company from India. The brand was later bought by Coca-Cola who re-launched it in order to compete against Pepsi. As of February 2012, Thums Up is the leader in the cola segment in India, commanding approximately 42% market share and an overall 15% market share in the Indian aerated waters market.
Uptalk, invented by a journalist in 1993, is a good term for the practice of ending assertions with rising pitch. High rising terminal or HRT, invented by linguists, is a bad term, making a false claim about the phonetics of the phenomenon. It should be abandoned. The Wikipedia article on High rising terminal (to which a search for uptalk redirects you, alas) says: Towards the end of the statement (the terminal), the intonation starts high and rises. This is empirically false for many instances of uptalk whose pitch tracks I've examined. Uptalk often starts low, at the bottom of the speaker's range.
