Meh! I'm a night owl and I'm about 80% convinced that all these articles trying to convince us to get up early are just written by people who want us to be as miserable as they are while doing their 5am meditation followed by journaling and yoga.

From the article:
“Just make an enormous mess in your yard and leave it there,” Pearson said. “Don’t trim stems for winter, leave bits of old wood around—all of that is great for bees to find a place to live. Don’t rake up the leaves, leave the dead spot in your yard… One of the things we can do that is super easy that will make a difference is just be lazy. Let things be messy. Let them be untidy.”

Finally! I can now tell my wife that I'm not leaving a mess in the yard. I'm actually helping the bees.

Look this up in your Funk and Wagnalls - Saturday Night Live was Laugh-in reincarnated for late night TV. Lorne Michaels, who's responsible for SNL, got his start in TV as a writer for Laugh-in.
And that's the truth – PFFFFT!

So, it's either a Gofundme to raise money to send up a killer satellite to get rid of it, or we all agree, and I mean everybody, to stop buying whatever gets advertised up there.The sky is for all of us to enjoy, not a marketing platform, vote with your pocket if this ever happens.

Liquor - don't forget the USA liquor measurements. It used to be that hard liquor was purchased in quart and fifth (1/5 of a gallon) bottles but now it's liter and 750ml bottles.

I used both spellings since the lobby card was spelled one way and the video the other.

I am a retired engineer and had become quite adept at using metric units since so many of our clients were from metric-using countries. Just takes a bit of practice (or practise). The real holdup to full metric conversion is the cost. It was quite a while ago but I read the summation of a report about conversion from imperial to metric and it concluded the cost would be staggering. Of course, that was back when a billion dollars was real money.

As sensible as metric conversion in the USA might be, it isn't going to happen in our lifetimes. Not mine, anyway.

They are not photos, they are maps. Yes, with Photoshop you could draw whatever fake image you want, as could a person with a text editor write whatever fake words. You could look at the actual description of how maps were made and consider their provenance:

A light description of exact image used above: https://www.climate.gov/news-features/featured-images/underwater-land-loss-coastal-louisiana-1932

The more detailed report of the source data, including some discussion of comparability of satellite data to pre-satellite data and separate analysis of satellite data only: http://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3164/

Definitely abuse. And malpractice by the veterinary clinic. The clinic said other people have surgery done to improve their animals' chances at shows, and that's ALL animal abuse.
