So, two researchers in China published a pre-print of an article with their beliefs that the Covid-19 virus had human intervention to enter the public, and they briefly cover some of corroborating circumstantial evidence. That paper is pulled. 9/9

Here's an update on my internet digging. More searching turned up a ZeroHedge article that includes the entire contents of the now-deleted paper. Linking here: zerohedge.com/health/smoking…

Not what I usually read, but this author writes a pretty good scene. For her dad to read. I particularly like the bit about the air conditioner.

She's right, she _does_ look like a movie star!
Not to gloat, but if I brush out my curls and make my sexy face, I bear a striking resemblance to a movie star.

This father is doing his best to break down gender roles. I applaud his effort. It reminds me that some among us need to do more. Things like contact the authorities, or at least confiscating the cheap booze. (Surely you used cheap booze, yes?)
I hate gender stereotypes. Sometimes I give my son a drink in a pink cup and my daughter a drink in a blue cup, just to test their reactions. Turns out they don’t like whisky.

I put together a simple Word Find for the current impeachment situation. Completely safe for work and school. Suggestion: Have students look up terms/names; describe in current context. Contact for other formats or solution; creative commons attribution 4.0 license.
Here's my Geek catch of the day; just read it in some software docs: "Utilize multiple cores for unparalleled performance" You probably have to be software/IT person to understand and care about that. It was either intentional, or a stupid oversight. Either way, I like it.

That's a beautiful video. Nice time to be flying. I'd say "nice time to be in Florida" but that's most anytime. Oh, sure, there's the hurricane thing. But other than that...
Decided to go upstairs to 7,500 ft to watch this #DeltaIV launch. It worked out epically 😁

Aviation is climbing out of its old boys club roots, but it's a very slow climb.
The Aviation teacher (female) warned me I might be in a class full of guys, and asked if I was ok with that. 😏 She doesn’t know I’m a robot building, patent holding, car exploding, chainsaw using, Space Camp alumni, MythBuster... Yet.

Allie Weber, a very accomplished maker and a patented inventor, as well as Discovery channel TV host of Mythbusters Jr, found out she's going to be stuck in some prerequisite classes she decidedly does not need. We should strive to avoid this in public schools whenever possible.

This year I have no professional fireworks shows scheduled for the 4th of July. Instead of that we'll likely be lighting a few fuses around the house. My son Robert and I made a run to Little China/Nite Lites fireworks in Leitchfield KY for a few consumer items.

Robots will take our jobs. I know plenty of people that this robot could replace.

Okay Robot strategists; we know what our next game will be. We'll see you on the field for Tower Takeover!

One day, we will wonder why we didn't stop this when they were small and slow...
とりあえず、ここまで出来た。 外装を3Dプリンターで作成中。 サーボのパワーが弱いから、立ち上がっての歩行は出来ない。(^-^;
I love the back story of how Eric Thirteen tracked down the people behind the movie and worked to get it into distribution. If horror is your thing, you'll be talking about this one soon.

As suggested, here is a retweet. Thank you Sunbelt, Gary Sinise, and most especially, thank you SFC Caleb Brewer.
RETWEET TO SAY THANKS: U.S. Army SFC Caleb Brewer suffered a bilateral leg amputation after he stepped on an IED while serving our country. For every RT this gets, we will donate $1 to the @GarySiniseFound's R.I.S.E. program* » snblt.co/2I3fVuW #EveryVeteranDeserves

Not happy with this outcome. I have a pile of book reviews I intend to work through (because I feel I owe it to the authors) and I'd really like to understand why this review isn't okay, so I won't be burning my review pointlessly on others. @simonschuster @MatthewBetley @amazon
Amazon did not accept this review of @MatthewBetley's "Overwatch". I don't understand. Though I see a typo, ("day" vs "die") I can't find any term I've violated. In addition, there's no recourse. Amazon says I can't ever submit a review for the book now, even a DIFFERENT review.
