Suicide-Belted Terrorist Shot and Killed in Spain; He Was the Ringleader of Last Week's Vehicle Attacks

The left hates white-skinned Nazis enough to punch them just for existing, but they're silent as churchmice about the brown-skinned variety.

This may have something to do with their political alliance with Islamists.

62 Eclipse was not bad. full on at 10.17, lasted two minutes, and the full eclipse is worth going outside to see.

Also very impressed that the first peek of the sun throws almost polarized light, the shadows of the overhead power lines were thrown very clear.

Not sure it was worth traveling a hundred miles to see


As for Spain, they have been sticking their fingers in their ears going lalalalala since the commies got control and stopped the various security orgs from hunting down terrorists, Basque communists, and allies.

119 Oh, and saw what I thought was Jupiter, it was out while the sun was still uncovered, and was kind of on what I think is the orbital plane, and other stars were out.

Really cool.

Anyhow, I am not completely convinced the left and the muslim terrorists are in cahoots. I think the left got control of government and is acting as they always wanted in protecting their theft, corruption and hiding their own terrorists, and forgot the rule of law and ensuring security is to protect everybody and society as a whole. So, when these Moroccans or whatever show up and start killing in significant numbers the left, now in control, is faced with the option of either:
1) re-instate a regimen that will get them and all their buddies burned at the stake; or
2) pretend it isn't a real big deal and hope they will wind up on top anyways, or at least eaten last.

It's about 50% here now, noticeably dimmer outside.

I'm using one my welding helmets, Shade 12. That was a little on the too bright side, so I'm wearing some very dark shades underneath, which makes it just right.

Oh, someone above mentioned. The trouble with an eclipse is when it gets pretty close to 100%. You can look directly at it without immediate pain, but it's still too bright. And the non-visible UV and IR too.

Normally, you can't look at the Sun for more than a fraction of a second.

The last eclipse in the UK, I think 40+ people showed up with solar retinopathy. Idiots. There will be similar idiots here.

Any proper welding hood will filter out the UV and IR near 100% no matter what the shade, which is for visible.

If you look at it for a few seconds, and it makes a spot, then it's too bright. That's how I gauged the dark glasses under mine. With the Shade 12 alone, it would leave a bit of spot.

214 The eclipse boob viewing is not rumor. It's fact.

Have the volunteer lay down, feet towards sun. Take off the volunteers top. Firmly grasp the boobs from the side and pick them up towards the chin until a small spot of sun appears on the decoupage.

Voila!

216 Saw the eclipse by watching the shadows on the sidewalk as the sunlight came through the leaves of the trees. Then someone came outside with a pair of those polarized, transistorized atmospheric reentry glasses. pretty cool! Took some photos with the ol' iPhone too. Not as cool.

No zombies sighted though.

239 Bless his heart (in the good way), the Boss just called to tell us to be sure we're watching the eclipse coverage online and to go outside when we get close to totality which is like 15 minutes.

Coworker made a viewer out of a Pringle's can and it's working a treat. I'll admit, this is very cool.

We're not dark yet but the light is getting this very odd shade of blue. I am grateful yet again that I work in an old Victorian house that has an actual backyard that we can go out to watch this.
