Not really...but I was in this little Mexican taco restaurant in Des Moines when she and her entourage waltzed in with a couteri of press people. Hell, this restaurant was so small, the hoi polloi didn't have room to get in and order lunch.
I kept my head down and ate my burrito birrilo as fast as I could before she recognized me as a Trump supporter.

Now that I've said something nice about the cute dogs, I want to say, I AGREE, GOSSAMER PENGUIN.
========
we are, realistically, running out of time to administer justice to those that need administering.
It takes up to a year from indictments to trial and with the notoriety and politicization of such trials the motions for continence, change of venue and other motions typical of trials of this type would push the commencement of such a trial well after the election.
And if Trump loses, and I pray that he doesn't, these trials will be put on hold and the next Donk administration will drop them lickety split.
And apparently the white hats don't indict nobody until all of the investigating is done and not as they uncover the crimes.
This is all becoming disturbingly absurd.

My cat loved dogs until she had a litter. After that, she was fine with my dog... until we gave away the kittens. We'd arranged the whole thing ahead of time, so it happened on one day, and I kept her in the back while it happened, to spare her feelings.
This was a mistake.

I stopped for a split-second, without even turning around, and said, loudly, "REALLY?" Same female voice said "Sorry, not sorry." The dogs were frantically trying to scramble over the low fence to get at me so I beat it out of there. Soon as I was able to I looked up the bar's number, called and spoke to the manager, and man was he ever PISSED. He said "Yep, I see them right out the window but not for long.

I know this is hard, and I do not want to criticize friends here, or blame them for the situation.
But I say this seriously - anyone in California who paid attention to what was going on should have installed a home generator at least a year ago. AND laid in serious stores of food and fresh water, at least a months supply. People not willing to make those preparations should not be taking the risk of living in California anymore. It is not a safe or sane place to live, not any of it.

On Monday, the Trump Organization canceled an ACT for America gala scheduled for November 7 at Mar-a-Lago, days after a liberal smear campaign launched by the discredited Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) denounced the event itself as a violation of the Constitution.
After the Palm Beach Post, Miami Herald, and New York Times ran stories uncritically citing the SPLC's accusation that ACT for America is a "hate group," the event was unceremoniously cancelled.

No, the transmission lines have to be shut down because of the liability case. Hospitals have mandatory standalone generating systems to keep them going in times like this.
BTW, all California has to do to fix this on the governmental level is for the Legislature to pass a bill exempting PG&E from all liability for accidental fires. They won't do it, because it doesn't look good to the prog base in the cities.

I'm also assuming "essential public services" (which will include the politician's A/C, refrigerators, and all that) are also exempt.
I'm thinking about the local distribution systems. I don't know nuttin' about the Cali grid, but I assume it's like it is everywhere else. It will be the distribution lines that are the biggest spark hazards. The big transmission lines not so much.
So, I'm just wondering how they cut this off, while preserving hospitals and essential public services and shit. The system may not easily be designed for such selective cutting off.
I'm just wondering how this can be done without being a clusterfuck.

Here, they have the two substation requirement. The backup generators do not have to power *everything*, just the life critical systems.
Every room will have red-colored receptacles which are on the generator system. Normal colored receptacles are not.
And, while I'm not up on the latest, at the time I was up on this stuff, that was pretty much nationwide, although other states could make additional requirements.

This is California. The executives would probably be arrested and tried for some ridiculous charge with lengthy prison time if they tried that.
On another note, I'm hearing about both Blizzard (the video game company) and the Rockets GM today. Both were caught in pretty much the same circumstances, and both acted pretty much the same way.
I'm sure that most of you have already heard about the Rockets GM, who tweeted in support of the Hong Kong protestors. That tweet has since been deleted, and both the GM and the NBA have apologized to the PRC.
Meanwhile, Blizzard was apparently holding its championship for a game called Hearthstone. Hearthstone is a nominally free to play online 1v1 collectable card game (the game doesn't cost anything to play; but paying will allow you to acquire packs of new cards much more quickly than not paying). The player that won took advantage of the media platform that Blizzard was providing, and issued a statement in support of the Hong Kong protests. In response, Blizzard banned the player from Hearthstone, and confiscated his winnings from the championship.

That's where this gets really maddening - PG&E already basically asked the State to take them over. The State looked at it and realized that PG&E needs from $35 - $40 Billion in financing just to get out of bankruptcy, and maybe that much again to upgrade their system physically. (who really knows how much that will cost) California doesn't have the money to take on an extra $100 billion in costs right now.
That's the price of standing by and doing nothing for 20 years while a system is allowed to run into the ground.

Wiring and electrical requirements for hospitals are quite stringent. Back when I was in, my boss wouldn't even touch health care work because of it. Made it too expensive, and the liability was too much.
One I remember. Grounding requirements. The safety ground system had to be able to handle full fault current the circuit could supply, and not exceed a certain voltage drop per length carrying said fault current.
This meant the equipment ground conductors had to be *bigger* than the other, normal current carrying conductors.
And you had to test that voltage drop.
The idea was to limit any possible voltage you might be exposed to during such a short/fault event.

This specific bit of nonsense is due to the enviro nuts. You see, PG and E is prohibited - by state law - from cutting brush back from the powerlines. So when the vegetation gets dry, then if a powerline out in a rural area sparks, its guaranteed to start a fire. Massive lawsuit ensues, and PG and E loses lots of money as a result. It doesn't matter how close to bankruptcy the company starts because its going to get there eventually if this sort of thing keeps up.

Excuse me, I erred. The green dot is not to be confused with the green triangle. The green dot simply indicates hospital grade (the most expensive, above industrial grade).
Isolated ground is indicated by a green triangle.

Really good film, not a movie, but it is a film. I am a fan of 70s movies and character studies that move at a slower pace. This was very much in that vein. A sad movie too. It held up a mirror and I saw myself in it. A bit like Falling Down but not as much a caricature.
It got me to think a lot. Worth the discount Tuesday rate.

Generac 10k for your house running on NG is about $10k plus install which may be almost as much.
Their site quotes a starting price at $2000, which is probably just the fridge. I'm sure it costs every bit of what you say. Maybe combined with a gas generator would be the way to go. At some point you won't be able to get gas from the pumps though.

I was just looking. Orange color is now supposed to indicate isolated ground receptacles -- in health care facilities.
Apparently it's not completely standardized, and some times the triangle indicator is orange, not green.
So, an orange colored outlet in a hospital should be an isolated ground. And it should have a green triangle to indicate it as well.
In other setting you may see a white, ivory, or other color with an orange triangle for isolated ground.
It's been years since I last was up on the latest standards. I need to catch up.

The cheapest way to have a smallish (not whole house) generator set up, which can be small or medium is to install a subpanel. Put your "emergency loads" on that (being mindful of total load).
They make some inexpensive "generator subpane" with manual transfer switch arrangments, usually a breaker interlocked with another to prevent back feed to the main panel.

I run a household UPS system. Plenty of battery for the usual things. Electrical conditioners for all of the electronics (which includes dishwasher, fridge and other appliances with circuit board controllers).
Austin isn't exactly hurricane country, but having a Natural Gas/LP generator available is good for emergency backup when the power fails. Not sure I would need to fire up the generator right away unless the A/C needed to be run. Would likely wait for the refrigerator to need a cycle before switching on.
The UPS batteries are good for quite a long stretch to keep the computers, routers and other gee gaws running.

It's probably changed a lot, but you can have two classes of emergency back up loads. Those that can tolerate some delay, and those that require uninterruptible power. And requirements for what equipment should tolerate what.
So, the generators had to be fully online within a certain time period (30 s, maybe a minute or two). The others were then on some system that would meet the uninterruptible standard.
Keeping generators running and synced with the grid supply is one way.

Granted, but if you had to have one, would you prefer to have it in: August in Louisiana, January in North Dakota, or October in California?

Could well be. I was hoping it was something like an island at a confluence of rivers or something. Would have been good for defense back then.

10K will get you by but nothing with a large heating element
you mainly need water pump, boiler and heating fridge, and a few lights and outlets

Nominally, they are natural gas. Doesn't answer the question, but makes fuel less of a consideration.

20 - 25KW will generally be enough for whole house. Unless you're going to run your heat pump with back-up electric strips with the electric stove going wide open.

Northern Israel around 5000 years old. So I took a look at the story
(from the Jerusalem post.) 6000 inhabitants. No mention of what makes it
NYC-like aside from being populous. Bagels?
What was the world's population at the time?

Note that 100A at 240V is 24KVA. Get a clamp on ammeter, turn everything on you want to run, and see what the load is.

I meant natural gas, sorry. Just wondered if you end up with a giant gas bill at the end of the month like my old furnace. How does natural gas compare to the cost of electricity to run the same things is what I meant to say.

Instead I get to be woken up at 4:00 am every morning.
Only 10 more years or so. I only wonder who dies first: them, from old age, or me, from a stress-induced heart attack.
