Saturday Overnight Open Thread (3/23/24)
assigned to cover Southern California's wildfires. The
magazine wanted pictures of the heroic work the fire fighters
were doing as they battled the blazes. When the photographer arrived on the scene he realized that
the smoke was so thick that it would seriously impede, or
even make impossible, his obtaining good photographs from
ground-level He requested permission from his boss to rent a plane and
take photos from the air. His request was approved and via
a cell phone call to the local county airport necessary
arrangements were made. He was told a single-engine plane
would be waiting for him at the airport. He arrived at the airfield and spotted a plane warming up
outside a hangar. He jumped in with his bag, slammed the
door shut and shouted, "Let's go!" The pilot taxied out, swung the plane into the wind and
roared down the runway. Within just a minute or two of
his arrival they were in the air. The photographer requested the pilot to, "Fly over the valley
and make two or three low passes so I can take some pictures
of the fires on the hillsides." "Why?" asked the pilot. "Because I'm a photographer for a national magazine," he
responded, "and I need to get some close-up shots." The pilot was strangely silent for a moment; finally he stammered,
"So, you're telling me you're not the flight instructor?" (H/T Ciampino)

The 10 Best Places in the U.S. to See Wildlife
You don’t need to leave the country to have a wildlife experience of a lifetime. With nearly 3,000 different types of native animal species in the United States and 18,000 types of plants, it’s one of the world’s most ecologically rich countries—in fact, it’s recognized by the World Conservation Monitoring Center as one of 17 mega-diverse nations. From Maine’s rocky shores to the green rain forests of Washington, there’s much to see and do right here at home—no long-haul plane ticket or safari lodge reservation required. There’s perhaps no better way to see America’s scenic landscapes than by visiting a national park. Created in 1916 by Woodrow Wilson with the signing of the “Organic Act,” the National Park Service, or NPS, has been hailed as one of the most democratic things the U.S. government has created and has been imitated all around the world. The NPS currently oversees 423 parks and monuments on a grand total of 85 million acres of land—all preserved “for the enjoyment of future generations.”
This manager must have been in the bottom 5% of Management Class. However, Kyseem Ransome, has won a Genius Award.
Chipotle manager exposed himself and masturbated in the dining room of a Pennsylvania restaurant, according to police who say that a female victim “felt three squirts of liquid hit her jeans” when she got up to leave the table where the man had allegedly been pleasuring himself. Following the March 1 incident at the eatery in Camp Hill, a Harrisburg suburb, two women went to the local police station to “report a sexual assault,” according to a March 18 criminal complaint. The women--one of whom was a former Chipotle employee--detailed an encounter with Kyseem Ransome, the 26-year-old manager. The duo told cops they were seated at a communal table (seen below) talking with Ransome and other employees when Ransome began “doing something with his hands down his crotch.”

The NOAA is worse than a bunch of drunken women making up their minds. Snow ranges have changed at least 5 times since yesterday morning. Now it is calling for 10-13" The original call was 10-25" We have only had 60" so far this year.

We're having a wet year, it seems that every 5 to 6 days we have a couple days of rain.
This week it's going to be every other day instead of 3 straight. On the plus side we're only expecting between a tenth and quarter of an inch. It'll just slick the roads for the winter visitors, reminding them of what they're missing!

You don't walk across anyone's camp spot. You tread the edges, politely nodding hello. But crossing the interior space is rather inconsiderate.

A few years ago in a campsite, there was plenty of space around ours, but some German kids kept walking through about three feet from our tent. I almost shouted "raus" at them. (wife told me not to)

I was able to see Mercury damn good tonight (tomorrow will be even better, max elongation tomorrow). I stepped on the front porch a little after 8PM EDT, and couldn't believe it, but I saw Mercury peeking out nicely just above a tree branch.
I got up to a higher vantage point, and around 8:30 PM, it was nicely visible and bright. Jupiter up above along the ecliptic. Even got a couple decent shots (for me) of the point of light with the stupid phone.
Anyway, this a nice window for seeing Mercury right after sunset to almost due west above the horizon.

These were big RV spots on grass with no clear lines and we did pass along the edge, mostly because the road was flooded from it raining all day. She wasn't even outside and stuck her head out to yell at us.
This wasn't a tent camping situation with clearly defined campsites and not much room between them. She was just sitting in there waiting to be a bitch.

Here, at (34.7N, 82.2Wish), didn't need any binoculars at all to see Mercury. It was nice and bright, magnitude -0.3. That much brighter than Mars now, which has just started to pop back up on the morning side.
When I first saw it, down here at the house (sort of low, close to the treeline to the west), it was a little after 8PM EDT, and IIRC, Stellarium said it was just a smidge under 12 degrees above the horizon.

Breakfast burritos are common place and I make them for myself at least once a week.
But I've never heard of breakfast tacos.
Not that I object to the premise.

Posted by: gourmand du jour, home of the $22 burrito at March 23, 2024 11:00 PM (MeG8a)
Tacos are smaller, so you gotta make more, or rather eat more, of them; I guess that goes hand-in-hand. And they can be messy. The burritos are better travelling food, hands --erm, uh, well, forget that. But if'n I have any leftover corn tortillas, I sure as hell ain't wastin' 'em.

Good Lord - it has been two decades, hasn't it? I remember Ace's twentieth anniversary posts, but it still seems like The D&D Guide To The Candidates, the Paul Anka series (especially the haiku contest), and Antarctica Now were only a brief time ago. I know it's a consequence of having reached the age of 29, but there's a freshness to this blog that one just doesn't see anywhere else, and the amazing work that Ace and the Cobs are what make it remain that way.
And of course, the quality of the comments section - myself excluded, with all due humility.

Speaking of the Moon, the Full Moon Sunday morning will be the Paschal Full Moon, or the Pink Moon according to the Injuns, the first full Moon of astronomical Spring, and the first full moon of the tropical year.
This determines Easter. Well, mostly. The Ecclesiastical equinox is always Mar. 21, and the "full Moon" they use is actual a date on a lunar calendar. With the Gregorian reform, they also fixed the lunar calendar to get it well in sync with the actual astronomical event of the Paschal Moon.
You will note the Passover occurs much later, April 22nd. This is due to the Jewish calendar having a leap month this year. So, not this moon, but the next one.
This is related to their being a true Blue Moon this year, an astronomical season with 4 full Moons.

I was friends with a Coptic girl at university, and she mentioned how their Easter would follow along with the Jewish calendar/Passover instead of the Roman Catholic/Protestant Easter.
Yes, she was hot, and no, she was very traditional and not "interested" in me anyway.

Let me back up a bit. I'm not talking about burrito tortillas. They can be pretty big in diameter, my favorite for burritos, but they are pretty thin. What I'm talking about is a five or so inch diameter corn tortilla, thicker than the burrito tortilla. Almost chewy, with a savory corn flavor. You can bake/fry them to make them crispy in the familiar shapes but I prefer them 'street food' soft so I can sort of pinch/roll them to eat them. Look Ma, no utensils!

The Orthodox Easter is different as well. They use the Julian Calendar Mar 21, which is 13 days behind the Gregorian now (will be 14 in 2100).
Also, they didn't fix their lunar calendar. This latter is why even when the Paschal Moon occurs after Julian Mar. 21, their Easter is usually a week behind.
This time however, it will be May 5th in the Gregorian. This Moon is too early for them.

Haven't yet been able to confirm the Orthodox "moon tables" are the same as the current Jewish lunisolar calendar they use for their Passover date.
But that Orthodox table is now 5 days behind the astronomical full moons. While it's well know how the Gregorian reform fixed the solar calendar, they also fixed the lunar tables as well (for a while, they will begin to diverge, but not for several centuries, if not until the year 3000 - 4000) range.
But next year, both the Western and Orthodox Easter will fall on the same date, April 20th.

The people who normally ride a foot off your bumper filled with rage because you don't want to go 25 over can see there is a truck in front of you so you CAN'T go faster and a car can ALWAYS out stop a semi so no chance of an accident ahead causing a sudden stop in front of you

This makes sense. Probably why they don't do it. Adds cost to the cars, which makes it less likely for them to be on board as their costs are already astronomical for the change over. Better to fob it all off on the city/government because their funds are bottomless.

Although I tend to MEGLO at lunar calendars (too many cycles to juggle in my head at one time), the Gregorian correction of the lunar calendar is based on a correction to the 19 yr Metonic cycle.
They add 1 to an "epact table" every 300 years mostly, with a longer cycle that delays that for 400 years. They added 1 in 1800, and will add another in 2100.
At the time of the adoption, they jumped 10 days on the solar calendar, and jumped 7 on this lunar epact table.

More dead weight for the battery to shuttle around = lower efficiency than the already dismally low it is. And every car would need a 15-pound charging cable, and a spool on which to roll it up. We don't put gasoline filler hoses on cars, either.

But those appliances run off the cord in real time. They aren't charging a battery, to be drawn upon later. The model for vehicles, land, sea, or air, is for the fueling link to be part of the fuel source. Even air-to-air refueling of fighter planes, the fuel line is streamed out by the tanker, and the fighter just plugs into it.

Back in the 1980's when Toyota Coronas were being stolen at a huge rate, a friend of mine rigged his family's Toyotas with a real simple cutoff switch to interrupt the starter circuit. It was just a regular normally-open push-button switch mounted directly behind the dash ashtray. With the ashtray pushed right in, the switch was depressed, and the starter worked. With the ashtray pulled out, even a little bit, the starter was disconnected. HIs passengers never even noticed the little ritual of pulling out the ashtray when he parked, and pushing it back in when setting out again.

Good evening, all.
Is it strange that Princess Kate got diagnosed with something so bad that she had to go to the hospital for two weeks and have some significant procedure (ileostomy?) but at least learned that she didn't have cancer -- only to be informed TWO WEEKS LATER that she has cancer?
Am I missing something here, because it seems to me that doctors should have identified cancer before she even went into the hospital, or at least during her stay.
Like, wtf? Am I wrong? Is this the NHS in action? I'm sure she has better doctors than your average limey, but it still sounds like second-class medicine to me.

Kate went in for 'planned' surgery. (Who knows what it may have been.)
At any rate, they must have removed something. And then performed a tissue biopsy. And found "cancerous cells" in it. Whatever it was.
My own case? Uterine fibroids. Caused painful, heavy, nearly constant periods. Planned for, and got, a hysterectomy. All removed tissues biopsied. Lucky me, not cancerous.

First, Princess Dianna. I seriously doubt that William has never and will forget or forgive the way the media treated his mother, and their possible role in her tragic death. This, coupled with the usual Buckingham reticence about private subjects would manifest in disclosing as little as possible to the vultures from the various media outlets.
Second, Princess Kate might feel that her public image needed to be managed, especially when you factor in chemo and its effects.
Third, it's entirely William and Kate's business what happened, when, why, how, and in what order.

Eh, seems to scale. I have lived in both. Small town was great for knowing what was going on in kids lives. Big town was great for anonymity. People can be exhausting whichever environment. On the bright side, finding ones circle of idiots never seems to be a problem. Or I have been lucky in that.

Doing okay. Everything seems ready for the funeral now, just make sure the suits fit me and younger boy. I was going through some frustration the last two days with one of my BILs and his wife; after I dropped off a jacket, pants, shirt, and tie, I get a call that evening: "He should have shoes too!" Well, you shoulda told me SOONER, as in sometime in the PREVIOUS 12 DAYS, not AFTER I dropped off his clothes. So frustrationg. Made another trip today IN THE RAIN, pouring at times, to drop off...socks and shoes. Get a call while there: "When his wife passed, we had a blanket for her".
Me: "He has a suit with a jacket and pants; WHY would he need a blanket too? No, too late to be doing stuff like that; his funeral is in LESS than two days"...

Fell in her kitchen the morning of Feb 20th. Banged her head on a cabinet. This caused "slight" subdural brain bleeding. Kept in the hospital two nights for observation and scans to make sure it wasn't changing. Seemed okay.
Morning of Mar. 5th, she began displaying stroke symptoms. Went to hospital again, "small" stroke" confirmed. (Brain bleeding can lead to ischemic strokes via a process of pressure or something).
Discharged her to an acute rehab facility for two weeks. She's doing good. We got her home with us Friday.

One of my brothers bought some cheese puffs at a store in Missouri; he said they were quite good. His dog would watch him while he ate them and he would tell her they were not for her. They were so good, that he brought them to work and tried sharing with his co-workers, but none of them wanted to partake. Later he found that what he bought WERE cheese puffs...for dogs. He wrote the company a letter telling them his story, and the wrote back "We're glad you found a snack you can share with your pet."

My Daddy, Publius, Sr, who was getting a bit "la-dee-dah" there at the last, confirmed this 90 do what the fuck you want rule.
He, up until the last, insisted he could drive. His driver's license expired in 2018. We didn't tell him. Some time around 2020 - 2021 (Maybe Miley will remember the exact date), he discovered this. He was certain of course, that he wouldn't let his driver's license expire, so began searching for his "good license", which he'd obviously misplaced.
My mother finally tried to clue him in a bit. He told her, "The law says when you get to be 90, you don't need a driver's license anymore".
Okay, Daddy.

The last time Daddy drove on a public road was in early 2019, I think. He snuck off, to prove a point. The keys got hidden after that. My mother insisted I not tell her what I'd done with the keys, so she could honestly tell him, without lying, that she didn't know where there were.
The last time he got behind the wheel was in Summer of 2020. They were building the new house for Miley then. He wanted to see what was going on. I was there with the pickup parked behind their house. A whole bunch of them, the contactor, and some other subs all needed to talk with me....

Anyway, while talking with them, I'd left the keys in the truck. Daddy saw his opportunity. He snuck out, jumped in the truck, and off he went.
He would up stuck in the field, mired up to the axles. It had rained a lot that year. "WHere'd all this water come from?", he wondered.
Got him back inside. It was hot and humid as hell. Had to pull the truck out with the tractor, and then hose off a ton of mud all over everything.

Old Papa collapsed while in line, but being nice here, they sat him down and brought him a ballot.

She impressed her therapists up there. They worked the hell out of her (this is important with stroke victims, start doing therapy as soon as you can). She was absolutely exhausted by late afternoons.
Anyway, when she first got there, her aphasia ranked "severe" on a clinical evalulation scale. By discharge, it was merely "mild".
She couldn't work her right hand much for fine motor control. Two weeks later, she could sign her name. Her handwriting changed (that's new, re-routed brain circuits taking over), but she can do it.

Except that she revealed the order in which she had her procedure, got discharged, and then found out she had cancer. How was it not detected sooner? How do you find out you have some dire condition that requires major surgery, spend two weeks in the hospital, and find out two weeks after you're discharged that, woops, that was cancer not the thing we told you it was.

Oh, Polly's husband, now deceased, had a stroke himself, a big one. She was recounting that. It took him about 2 years, but he finally got where he could talk fairly well.
In the early months, she said she got to where she could understand his aphasic gibberish. He would use the wrong word or sounds trying to say something, but it was consistent. It was like a crazy substitution cipher which she decoded.

That's what I think. My mom had basal cell carcinoma on her nose, and when they were cleaning it out, they'd do a little scrape, take it to the microscope, say Yup, still seeing some bad cells, go scrape a little more, rinse and repeat until they'd gotten all the cancerous cells.
I really thought they could do that on the operating table, but what do I know.

We met in the 1970s at ISU in IL, what are the odds? There are some that say there is an instinctual attraction from those of your same "tribe". I just know I like redheads, LOL.

But those appliances run off the cord in real time. They aren't charging a battery, to be drawn upon later. The model for vehicles, land, sea, or air, is for the fueling link to be part of the fuel source. Even air-to-air refueling of fighter planes, the fuel line is streamed out by the tanker, and the fighter just plugs into it.
Electric golf carts, which have existed for many decades? The charging cable is attached to the charger, which may be portable, or wall-hung.
One cable can service more than one car.

The words in your article seem to be running off
the screen in Internet explorer. I'm not sure if this is a format
issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.
The style and design look great though! Hope you gett the issue fixed soon. Many thanks
