Is This An ONT Which I See Before Me, The Handle Towards My Hand?

Evening Horde! Been rainy down here lately, how's the weather in your neck of the woods? Everyone in Tampa is dead.

Anti-Aging Cocktail Extends Mouse Lifespan by About 30 Percent


Scientists in Europe have tested an anti-aging drug cocktail in mice and found that it extended the animals' lifespans by around 30 percent. The mice stayed healthier for longer too, with less chronic inflammation and delayed cancer onset.

The two drugs are rapamycin and trametinib, which are both used to treat different types of cancer. Rapamycin is also often used to prevent organ rejection, and has shown promise in extending lifespans in animal tests. Trametinib, meanwhile, has been shown to extend the lifespan of fruit flies, but whether that worked in larger animals remained to be seen.

So for a new study, a research team led by scientists from the Max Planck Institute in Germany investigated how both drugs, on their own and together, could extend lifespan in mice.

Huh. Maybe soon it will be normal to live to be over 100. The article says that there are quality-of-life benefits too.

Crime Spree

Florida Man Convicted For Pretending To Be Flight Attendant To Take 120 Free Flights


Some people pay for their flights with money. Some use travel card reward points. Others use frequent-flyer miles. Apparently, though, if you use "pretending to be a flight attendant" to get free flights, that's a crime? You wouldn't think that would be the case, but a federal jury just convicted Florida's Tiron Alexander for doing exactly that, finding him guilty on charges of wire fraud and entering into a secure area of an airport by false pretenses. According to the Department of Justice, Alexander took 34 free flights on one airline but booked more than 120 flights before he was caught.

So, how did he do it? He used airline web portals meant for pilots and flight attendants and then provided false "employer, date of hire, and badge number information." He also varied which airlines he claimed to work for, using about 30 different badge numbers across seven airlines. He also posed as a flight attendant on three other airlines. Perhaps most surprisingly, he was able to keep his scheme going for six years, beginning in 2018 and continuing through 2024, when he was ultimately caught. That means he flew for free, taking more than 100 flights, for six years, and no one noticed until just last year.

Pretty slick.

Historians dispute Bayeux tapestry penis tally after lengthy debate

In a historical spat that could be subtitled “1066 with knobs on”, two medieval experts are engaged in a battle over how many male genitalia are embroidered into the Bayeux tapestry.
The Oxford professor George Garnett drew worldwide interest six years ago when he announced he had totted up 93 penises stitched into the embroidered account of the Norman conquest of England.

According to Garnett, 88 of the male appendages are attached to horses and the remainder to human figures.

Now, the historian and Bayeux tapestry scholar Dr Christopher Monk – known as the Medieval Monk – believes he has found a 94th.

Whichever one of them winds up being right will be the cock-of-the-walk.


Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Dry Bones

A Royal Skeleton in the Chapel

In June 1925 a sarcophagus was discovered in Dorset’s Sherborne Abbey and widely reported to be that of ‘Ethelbert’, a ninth-century king of Wessex. Decades of speculation followed, before, in 1952, the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England dated the sarcophagus to the 13th century. This should have laid the issue to rest – but the tradition is still alive and well today.

Æthelberht and his brother Æthelbald, both now overshadowed by their younger sibling Ælfred (‘the Great’, were the third and second sons of Æthelwulf, king of Wessex. Both ruled briefly and relatively uneventfully in the mid-ninth century. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that Æthelbald was buried ‘at Sherborne’, and Ælfred’s biographer, Asser, wrote that when Æthelberht too ‘went the way of all flesh’, he was ‘interred in honorable wise at Sherborne, by the side of his brother’. This much is rarely disputed.

Pretty big fight over some old bones.

Good point, I was only thinking of the "Hate America First" Americans, but like those celebrating 9/11 in America at the time, there are plenty of enemy foreigners within our borders, especially those near DC.

But not sure if those domestic foreign entities would have been the ones ordering pizza before the attacks. They did not know?

Had a 2013 LT2 Camaro... 330 Hps with a 6 speed Manual Tranny.... had to keep the revs up and drive it like a Porsche... but was fun to drive...

But... was a crappy transmission. Even after being in the shop twice, second gear became problematic... so I sold her... but had almost 100K miles on it... had used it while doing IT Consulting all over the Calif Central Valley.

In This Day in History:

Israel whacks Iran, most severely. The mullahs and IRGS are likely on the edge of doom, as they have no defense against Israel, no proxies left, and potentially face Trumpus Magnus, instead Kammie the Kow.

Sen (appointed, not elected, then re-elected) Alex Padilla learns that the appropriate, civilized, behavior in Press Conferences also applies to him, as it applies to all civilized people.

An Air India 787 went down, seconds after take-off, with only one survivor. At least one commenter, on the local news, mentions that the video shows the 787's landing gear was still down (should have been up) and flaps were up (should still have been down to generate sufficient lift). Were the engines still running?

Unconnectedly(?), very recently the Indians whacked a whole bunch of militants in Pakistan for killing a bunch of Indian civilians, and the Pakistanis ...

If the cause(s) of the crash are linked to sabotage by militants, then an implicit link exists to Pakistan. I do not think a nuclear response by India will happen immediately, but, by comparison the Gazans may decide they aren't suffering THAT much ... and a nuclear exchange is now close.

235 Key to all the riots is whether or not the local authorities order the police to stop them or not. Even back in 2020 they were never a mass popularity thing so police would be overwhelmed by numbers. A relatively few activists and opportunistic local looters who disappear if they see police taking action. So most likely in the middle of cities run by the opposition, unlikely anywhere else.

The Oxford professor George Garnett drew worldwide interest six years ago when he announced he had totted up 93 penises stitched into the embroidered account of the Norman conquest of England.
According to Garnett, 88 of the male appendages are attached to horses and the remainder to human figures.

279 It's practically impossible to predict the demise of dictatorial regimes (unless removed by external force, like Hitler or Saddam). At first glance (all I've had time for) it certainly looks like Israel is hitting the grey checked area representing the overlap of two Venn circles - national command authorities, and political leadership.

If the world is lucky, this will finally spell the end of one modern history's worst most pernicious regimes.

As for war duration, this was obviously always going to be a campaign, not a "strike". Iran's a big place, and for 4 decades the regime has looted the country to build capabilities utterly unrelated to national development or interest. So it'll be quite an effort to check all the boxes.

BREAKING: Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei warns Israel faces 'bitter and painful' fate - Full statement:

"At dawn today, the Zionist regime extended its vile and blood-stained hand to commit a crime in our beloved country, further exposing its wicked nature by targeting residential areas. The regime must now await severe punishment.

The powerful hand of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic will not let them go unpunished, God willing.

In the enemy’s attacks, a number of commanders and scientists were martyred. Their successors and colleagues will immediately carry on their duties, God willing.

With this crime, the Zionist regime has prepared a bitter and painful fate for itself—and it will certainly receive it."

Roberts isn't smart enough to pull off a judicial coup, like in Brazil.

I love how Roberts gets the official title of respect, Chief Justice John Roberts, but I don't think most people understand the Chief Justice is merely the latest Dread Pirate Roberts: A retiring Chief Justice. The next nomination to clear the Senate then becomes the Chief Justice, the other sitting 8 be damned. I do not understand the extra added gravitas given to a Chief Justice just because of a title. I thought we didn't like those things?

Iran strike status update:
1. Israel launched large-scale airstrikes on Iran tonight, targeting nuclear facilities and military infrastructure, including Natanz nuclear site. Attacks also hit military bases and neighborhoods housing senior commanders, with eyewitnesses reporting massive explosions and flames across Tehran.

2. Israeli defense source suggested high likelihood that Iran’s military chiefs a& top nuclear scientists were killed in the initial strikes. Iran’s state media acknowledged the death of IRGC commander Hossein Salami and possibly Armed Forces Chief Maj. Gen. Mohammad Bagheri. The opening assault neutralized key Iranian officials within minutes.

3. Israel’s Home Front abruptly shifted to wartime operations during the night; authorities closed Israel’s airspace until further notice, halting all flights to and from Ben Gurion International Airport near Tel Aviv. The airport was evacuated, with El Al Airlines suspending all operations. Israel was removing all airplanes from Ben Gurion, sending them out of the country to safeguard aviation assets.

4. IDF instructed Israelis to stay near bomb shelters and prepare for extended stays due to potential ongoing attacks from Iran. These steps reflect Israel's heightened state of alert, driven by intelligence estimates anticipating Iran’s potential response with up to thousands of ballistic missiles and drones, and possibly heavy barrages from Lebanon and Yemen.

484 Jennifer Griffin @JenGriffinFNC 22m
Exclusive: @BretBaier spoke to President Trump by phone tonight following start of airstrikes.
Here’s what he said:

President Trump was aware of the strikes beforehand. There were no surprises, but the US was NOT involved militarily and hopes Iran will return to the negotiating table.

President Trump:
“Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb and we are hoping to get back to the negotiating table. We will see. There are several people in leadership that will not be coming back.” (A reference to some of the Iranian leaders who were killed tonight by Israel.)

Pres Trump has spoken to PM Netanyahu several times in recent days.

The Trump Administration reached out to at least one key Middle Eastern ally to acknowledge that the strike was going to happen but that the US was not involved in the strikes and the goal is still to get Iran back to the negotiating table.

The President is looking to see if there is retaliation, CENTCOM is on high alert, The US will defend itself and Israel if Iran retaliates.

He said I hope they get back to the negotiating table.

But is there any truth to this? At the end of the day, we here at eBaum's World are scientists, and we take our roles very seriously. That’s why we’ve scoured the internet to see if anyone has done any actual research into how often Europeans poop.



First, some justice for the Italians. A 2004 study found that “the average defecatory frequency was once per day,” a far cry from the 55 dumps we were promised. This number seems consistent around Europe: for example, Brits poop 1.66 times per day."

528 The Mossad: Satirical and Awesome
@TheMossadIL 3h

We have launched Operation "Am K’Lavi" ("With the Might of a Lion") to target Iran’s nuclear program and the regime’s long-range missile capabilities. Dozens of military targets across various regions in Iran were struck as part of the opening salvo. These included military command centers, commanders, military facilities, headquarters, and nuclear sites.

The sirens that sounded across Israel were not due to missile fire, but rather to prepare the public for the possibility of incoming attacks.

We are preparing for an operation expected to last several days at minimum, including anticipated heavy barrages from the Iranians. Full coordination is taking place with the U.S. military. Our objective is not regime change in Iran, but rather to neutralize military infrastructure and nuclear sites.

The opening strike in Iran was highly surprising in both scope and the locations targeted — places the Iranians did not expect. By the end of the operation, there will be no nuclear threat.

Meaning a million to two million people (or so) have no bowel movements at all per week, statistically, this is simply not possible. It would be a national health emergency, as in widespread clinical constipation in a majority of your population and widespread possible fecal impaction syndrome. Clinically, less then 3 bowel movements a week is considered to be a patient suffering from constipation. Don't even get me started on an average approaching 8 a day - that means that a significant number of the population is having more than 10-12, which means something like 1/2 your population is suffering from chronic dysentery!

549 That means he flew for free, taking more than 100 flights, for six years, and no one noticed until just last year.

Well, not really for free since if I am understanding this correctly he acted as a flight attendant performing all the duties involved right?

This is one of those really odd cases where he found a way to use the side benefit of the job to his favor. Real attendants do that as well but presumably he was taking on way fewer flights then a real attendant just to get where he wanted.

So that opens up the question could airlines drop most of their standard payments and just take people in this scenario who want, essentially, a free flight and nothing more?

They also went after leadership of course.

And others. Maybe we'll eventually know if accurate, but report that up to 8 Iranian nuke scientists sent to their reward. Some were hits, on the ground, not air strikes.

At least one refinery (Tabriz), Iran only has a couple. No word yet on a few pipelines that were left alone last October. Or oil-export infrastructure. That one would put the regime on the edge, hope we see it.

Naval assets also involved. No details. And certainly sabotage ops we might never know about.

Over 200 Israeli Air Force aircraft were involved in the opening strikes on Iran early this morning, IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin says in a press conference.

He says fighter jets dropped over 330 munitions in the strikes.

Defrin also confirms that Israel killed several top Iranian officials in the strikes, including Iran's military commander Mohammad Bagheri, IRGC chief Hossein Salami, and head of the Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters, Gholam Ali Rashid.

Other officials were also killed, he adds.

Not disagreeing with you. I'll just speak for myself that when it comes to Iran, we're still in an undeclared war since '79. Well, they've declared war on us -- numerous times. I really don't think people realized how serious it was for the mullahs to take over an embassy and hold hostage the employees there? For 444 days?

Let's not forget The Beirut Marine Barracks bombing in '83. Iran used its proxy, Hisb'Allah, for that attack.

I really don't care if Qom glows in the dark. Or Tehran turns into an urban jungle with lots of rubble and broken glass (if not cooled molten). Just. Don't. Care. Until the mullahs are not just gone but their entire lines removed, 'salting the earth Roman-style' so to speak, my Give-A-Shit Meter's busted.

4 hours into this war quick conclusions are premature. Israel and Iran have been preparing for decades for this moment and we’ll find out in the next few days who prepared better. The 2 most important preparations by Israel were last year. Taking out Hizbullah missile arsenal & >

destroying Iran’s missile defense network in September/October. This left Iran without its main deterrent (Hizbullah) against an Israeli strike and vulnerable to waves of fighter-jets. We’re about to see if and how Iran dealt with those major blows. Israel used the same pattern >

of the strikes on Hizbullah, prioritizing decapitation and missile bases. This will hamper an Iranian retaliation but impossible to say to what degree. The main questions at this point are what capabilities Iran has right now and will Hizbullah use whatever missiles it still has.

You can have whatever opinion you want about the goodness of the Pahlavis, or the legitimacy of how they got power, or who they were truly allied with but their goal was to bring Iran more in line with the West. And of course the fleeing Christians aren't going to agree with the mullah culture.

Both the Ukes and Russians have been playing with making about 90% of the drones they launch very cheap decoy drones; it exhausts an enemy’s air defense system at very low cost.

I was able to get to many Middle Eastern countries! My fellow travelers chickened out of Yemen, and we didn't go to Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait... it would be easier to say the ones we did get to, which was Israel, Jordan, UAE, Oman ( which I fell in love with) and S'audi Arabia.
We saw the Babylonian site, they were excited about funding to restore the Ishtar Gate. It was unreal to think of the history you were surrounded by. It was difficult to imagine Nebuchadnezzar eating grass there, because it was so hot you couldn't imagine grass standing a chance! If Ur is the site of the birthplace of Abraham, yes we saw it! All through Iraq, I realized how ignorant I am. I did know it was where Babylon was, but didn't knowbabout Sumerians, Chaldeans, etc.
We did make it up to the Kurdish region, but we had to enter from Turkey! ( I think?) By far the prettiest part of Iraq, and so different. I have stayed in touch with a family we met there, and hope to have them come stay with us and take them all around America. That will have to wait til mama passes, though. Can't do anything now.

Ignoring blaring danger signs, firing conscientious employees, Big Dreamer CEO who knew little about the science he was attempting, deliberately skirting regulations, bullying, "join my religion," moving unqualified employees into positions way beyond their skill level as qualified ones were expunged or quit, lawsuits to keep whistleblowers quiet, whistleblowers getting financially ruined, yikes if true.

Could be an okay movie. There's a young blonde intern, a charismatic sociopathic CEO, nerds, a scuba diver/influencer, an okay-looking accountant (she's not much but heck, cast Sidney Sweeney anyway), a trip to the Bahamas, and the whole mystique of the Titanic as a backdrop.

652 "Dirty" bombs are pretty much a nothingburger, in most plausible scenarios. Nothing remotely like a serious civil nuke mishap (Chernobyl). The material is not fallout, it's just radioactive material that has been physically dispersed.

I wouldn't be rushing to volunteer to do an on-site damage assessment at Natanz tomorrow, ahemm, but seems unlikely much nuclear material has been dispersed. More likely entombed and mixed with debris. But shockingly I am not intimately familar with the Natanz facility design, the Iranian storage practices, or the ordnance used today. So.

674 666 Elon blows up rockets galore, and everyone is like, "That's the spirit, old chap. We're learning from the mistakes." I implode one submersible and the same negative nellies say, "Oh, Stockywoky, how could you?" It's plain unfair.

675 I think everyone here knows that us helping Israel defend itself means intercepting missiles like we did last time, but the normies seem to think we're talking about invading Iran Desert Storm style.

Everyone here knows that Iran is a problem in the first place because of the CIA. So I have no problem with us being part of the solution.

Funniest thing seen so far: a free Palestine activist on X shrieking that Russia and China will avenge the mullahs. Putin and Xi both likely don’t give a shit. They have way more important things going on.

677 Can I just say what a comfort to discover somebody that really
understands what they are talking about on the internet.

You certainly know how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
More and more people ought to look at this and understand this side of your
story. It's surprising you aren't more popular since you certainly
have the gift.
