"All of this is by way of saying that there's been a 22-month investigation, a lot of people interviewed, a lot of people subpoenaed, a number of people indicted — we need to see the larger report," he said, adding that there is a "thirst out there" to understand why almost a two-year investigation boiled down to a four-page summary.

The WhatsApp founders, who jumped the Facebook mothership last year, kept their heads down and their mouths shut for years, despite a product philosophy that boiled down to "fuck ads" — only finally making their lack of love for their former employer's ad-fuelled privacy incursions into WhatsApp clear post-exit from the belly of the beast — in their own subtle and not so subtle ways.
"In the printed conversation of this much wider conversation, my answers about this tour were boiled down into one kind of weird sentence – leading up to that tour I'd been playing a tonne of 18+ club shows and so to be on stage in front of all ages was new to me and made me approach my performances with a whole new kind of energy," Charli wrote.
The first is that AMI appears to have done its best to serve up Michael Sanchez's name on a platter:Reality is complicated, and can't always be boiled down to a simple narrative like "the brother did it," even when that brother is a person who certainly supplied some information to a supermarket tabloid, and even when that brother is an associate of Roger Stone and Carter Page.

This past season of the Real Housewives spin-off has given us countless looks at why this coupling is doomed — like Jax's screaming meltdown a few weeks ago — but nothing has boiled down the Cartwright-Taylor household's problems like a single scene in Monday night's "Nothing Here For Me." The episode proves Jax doesn't want a partner — he wants an obedient, sexy shadow to follow him around everywhere.
Elsewhere, it's been rendered unrecognizable: In the American artist Dan Colen's early 21st-century canvases, chewing gum supplants paint; and for 523's "Cola Project," the Chinese conceptual artist He Xiangyu boiled down 127 tons of Coca-Cola into an oil-dark residue that he used as ink to emulate paintings from the medieval Song dynasty — a product of the industrial West transmuted into an emblem of old China.
This investment in Jean's story is what makes Jean's turn against her fellow X-Men, against her family — and then their turn against their sister — so pivotal in the comic books: The Last Stand tried to give Jean autonomy and agency, but boiled down the rest of the X-Men into one-note characters who either were in love with Jean (Cyclops and Wolverine) or mad at Jean (everyone else).
Now, two former BLM directors penned an op-ed in Politico that contains untruths, innuendo and material misrepresentations, including: Boiled down, this kerfuffle is about people who seek to retain their special access -- that is, their ability to travel to Washington, meet with top BLM officials far from the lands they manage and demand their allegiance to the special interests that try to run Washington, D.C. They can still meet with us.

With that in mind, one of the useful things I can do as a journalist—beyond publicly stating that I'm a man who goes to therapy, and it's been wonderfully helpful—is to call your attention to a paper Ronald Levant and other researchers published in 1992, in which the authors boiled down traditional masculinity to seven basic norms: avoidance of femininity, homophobia, self-reliance, aggression, achievement/status, attitudes toward sex, and restrictive emotionality.
Here is what a few of them had to say: Alexandria Symonds, a senior staff editor who most recently wrote an explainer about the Amazon rainforest fires: I was struck while reading students' responses to Times journalism by how impassioned they are, and by how — even while arguing opposite sides of an issue — their perspectives so often boiled down to simply wanting to live in a better, freer, kinder or more equal world.
Ultimately, Clayton's advice to investors can be boiled down to a very simple maxim: IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT PROBABLY IS. Beyond that, any encouragement to "act now" or that there's a guaranteed upside to the investment probably means that an investor shouldn't and that there isn't (and if you're interested in seeing a list of questions Clayton proposes an investor ask before investing in a token sale, see the end of this piece).
Some are more than a century old, like B. Merwan & Co. by Grant Road Station, where gingham shirts hang over the sink in the open kitchen and, hour after hour, cooks turn a rubble of mawa — milk boiled down until the liquids evaporate, leaving a sweet, creamy, craggy fluff — into tiny cakes, bronzed and cracked at the top and somehow dense and ephemeral at once, disintegrating instantly in the mouth, like poundcake called to a higher destiny.
