Read on Daily Mail that fashion designers are begging to dress Melania for inauguration day. They wouldn't have anything to do with her during Trump's first term.
She is classy and wouldn't tell them to fuck off like I would.

Nuclear power?
A stranger was seated next to little Johnny on the plane when the stranger turned to little Johnny and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
Little Johnny, who had just opened his book, closed it slowly, and said to the stranger. "What would you like to discuss?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the stranger. "How about nuclear power?"
"OK," said little Johnny. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. "A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass. The same stuff. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
"Jeez," said the stranger. "I have no idea."
"Well, then," said little Johnny, "How is it that you feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?"

I want to see her on the cover of Vogue and all the other wimmens' mags.
Karen will blow a gasket in the checkout line each time she sees her, both because she's a nasty harridan and because Melania is actually everything she secretly wishes to be: multi-lingual, sophisticated, moving at the highest levels of power and drop-dead gorgeous with the ultimate alpha as her husband and a freakishly tall, handsome son.
The coping and seething will be epic.

On April 20, 2021, singer Les McKeown of the Bay City Rollers died. McKeown was born on 12 November 1955, Edinburgh, Scotland). To commemorate him, we publish this video of one of the Rollers biggest hits.
Which means they posted it in 2016 to commemorate McKeown's death 6 years later......

I know it's a popular thing, but I've never seen any evidence that she's a he. Yes, I've seen the photos indicating a unit, but that's pretty simple: stuff the undies. And yes, it's a thing, very much a fetish. Given how perverted all the top-teir Dems are, I think that's part of her kink, and also that's she tired of playing the role of Mrs. Barry.
That's why she lives apart from him and ignores basic protocol regarding funerals and stuff.

A sow.
It's kind of funny, but even evil liars still want to gravitate towards the truth. For example, there is no reason why one should delve into how one's kids are conceived - its kind of known.
But Michelle made a point of saying that both her kids were IVF, which naturally feeds the notion that she never had sex with her husband. Why put that out there at all? No one was talking about IVF.
But, if you like to walk around with a strap-on, implying that your husband is gay and daring him to address it is fun.
All these people are filled with spite. It's the only thing they enjoy.

While the rest of ancient Greece was studying rhetoric, the Spartans set themselves apart and created the world's first culture of the cutting one-liner.
The thing is, it took on a life of it's own, so we're not entirely sure how much is authentic, and how much is other Greeks making fun of them.
Thus, when Athens fell, the story is that the general on site sent a message: "Athens is taken."
The Ephors (the magistrates who ran Sparta), sent a message back: "'Taken' was sufficient" because of course the Spartans were language Nazis. (Anachronism intended)

The left depends on the kind of ignorance that would lead to people demanding a Senator lead local weather preparedness/recovery efforts but not a mayor or a governor. Hell for Katrina they blamed Shrub first for not making the hurricane disappear himself and then again for the Dem governor and Mayor being incompetent

He was the second son born to Fraser Robinson III, a well known cocaine dealer and union thug for Crime Lord/Mayor Richard J. Daley, and Marian Shields Robinson, a transient street prostitute who was diagnosed with the HIV virus in 1998. He was a popular high school athlete and in 1982, he accepted a scholarship to play middle linebacker for the Oregon State Beavers.
"After finishing a respectable rookie season with 88 tackles and 7.5 sacks, he suddenly dropped out of the school. Fellow teammates observed that Robinson could regularly be heard lamenting over how he is a 'woman trapped inside a man’s body,' and he underwent sex reassignment surgery at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. To hide the shame of his new identity, Michael left Oregon State to attend Princeton University under his new legal name, 'Michelle Robinson.'"…

Not everyone was wholly dependent on slavery to the point where it intellectually and economically crippled them permanently. Where, even in ancient Greece, they couldn't effectively build in stone. Or produce any cultural output unrelated to warfare. Or grow their own crops. Or develop a money economy. Or govern without ritualistic murder by naked boys as a means of social control.

Sparta taught martial disciplines of self-sacrifice rather than the exultation of the self, which led to rule by tyrants.

The ruling class? *No* Spartiate worked the land. It's one of the key reasons they eventually dwindled to a couple hundred people - and none of their semi-citizens did either. Only their helots worked land.
-------
"Sparta famously used iron slag as currency to avoid the temptation towards greed (it ultimately failed)."
You're damned right it failed. It never even gained traction. They squandered the wealth of nations using plundered gold for foreign exchange, while their own economy remained chronically undeveloped.
--------
"Sparta taught martial disciplines of self-sacrifice rather than the exultation of the self, which led to rule by tyrants."
Sparta was ruled by an ever shifting, decrepit oligarchy while its natural leaders were off on their adventures.

Too bad they no longer hang people in the UK. All those pedos should be hung (and de-hung)
There used to be a punishment called half-hanging, where rather than a clean neck break, they'd let you strangle until you were almost dead, then haul you back up.
The end stage was generally drawing and quartering.

Silly. That's nice for a movie or whatever, but Sparta was never anything but a disruptive, destructive force in Greece. A permanent problem that eventually weakened everyone. By the time the Thebans and Boeotians put paid to their buttramming hegemony at Leuctra, the jig was up anyway. The Macedon would steamroll the Greek shortly after - in no small part due to the constant perfidy of Sparta before.
It's not a defensible civilization. They sucked shit from start to finish.

Well, no. He's saying I'm not knowledgeable. Which I am.
But it's also incorrect. I have the advantage of hindsight - I know what happened to the Greeks in the following wars, which they did not.
The city-states spent themselves fighting the Spartan menace. They all perished shortly after because the Macedon invaded. Without Sparta, they may have prevailed. With Sparta in the mix, they couldn't - they'd lost so much fighting Sparta.
It really is that simple. Sparta couldn't stop fucking with everyone until everyone fucked with them right back. And then they all perished.

I discovered another drawback of the tipping bucket (well, more like "spoon" here) rain gauge.
They're no good for solid precip, of course. Last night, a little after sundown, it started tripping an totaled up about 0.34". Temp got close to freezing, with freezing rain coming down, and that melted enough of the accumulated stuff in the funnel to start dripping and tripping.
Now, this morning, around 9AM, it started tripping again and lasted until 2PM. That was the sunlight melting. It racked up 0.4" for a total of 0.74".
That's way too much. All the other local stations around here displayed the same behavior. Some tripping last night, and then more tripping after 9AM.
But they all totaled no more than 0.5" or so, save for one other one, which hit about 0.7" as well.

It's possible it somehow got too much slush/snow/sleet inside the funnel (wind, or build up on the sides), but I don't think that's the most likely
I think what happened is some ice built up in the tipping spoon, and stuck. That ice wouldn't come out when it tipped over, and so it in then tripped too much until that piece of ice melted.

Mike, here's another GSP link you might be interested in, the daily HYD(rometeorological) report. This comes out in the morning, with the daily observations of all the stations, including a lot of coop ones in the area. There's a good bit of them in the NC mountains.
https://tinyurl.com/28u52ud9
The day they use is the "climatological" day, which starts at 7AM. They chose 7AM back in the day so the coop people wouldn't have to finish reports at midnight.

They've got a lot of precip only stations, and if I read it right, those are based on midnight start. In all these data reports, that should be indicated somewhere.
And with the climatological day, it's always standard time, never daylight, so during DST, it's 8AM local clock time.
That avoids the problem of a 23 or 25 hour local day during the changeover dates, and also keeps things synced with the sun better. It would be too confusing to go with local mean time, which would track the sun (and the dirunal behavior) perfectly for each station.

I merely mention this - it certainly is not the fact that a movie related to me would lead to Orlok posting here. A pure coincidence, to be sure. Orlok also liked Kentucky Fried Movie - that Enter the Dragon parody was awesome, right?

Agreed.If you were going to lower a reservoir for maintenance - this is the time to do it.
Perhaps they should have moved a little more quickly bringing it back online and maybe waited for a wetter year for any non-necessary maintenance

I saw there's a chance of some freezing fog around in some areas, the NC mountains I think according to the forecaster discussion.

This one, I don't know. Might be all AI?
The one you posted earlier, their Bandcamp page says "All Music here comes from AI, and are manually rearranged and mixed by hand," so I'd call that one "AI-assisted."
We'll be seeing a lot of this "a million monkeys at a million typewriters" stuff now that AI has brought the cost of a monkey down to $0.004 or so.

Kind of chilly here in AJ tonight, too. I have the little electric fan heater one, and the room is still chilly. Going to crawl into bed pretty soon, and flash up the electric blanket.

Seriously, they're running the forecast models all the time, and the displayed forecast values can change hour to hour.
A more sensible approach is to use *past experience* and judgement forecasting and not just blindly spew out the latest model runs.

What I just said about the low cost of monkeys applies here, too. Computer runtime is cheap. Human judgment is expensive.

And now, it's bumped up to 19F. GSP's hourly "point" forecast has been holding at 25F low the whole time.

22.1F, but dew point is holding at 20.8. Air feels very heavy, and there's a lot of frost. If dew point holds up, it won't get much colder.

Mike, if you're still here, I've going over that soduko solving routine. I should be shot for not documenting it any better, but I'm figuring out what I did. And I'm gonna document this time (I hope).
