Plane Ran Out of Fuel at 41,000 Feet. Here's What Happened.
Interestingly, this plane was still in operation at Air Canada until 2008, and I flew on it many times (there was a little brass plaque near the front entrance). Also interesting, Air Canada has had flat screens on the back of all of their seats since the 90s and of the many shows available for viewing was the show Mayday. So I got to watch the Mayday of the crash on the Gimli Glider, on the Gimli Glider.

Thank you sir, for the Promote.
My son is a 17 year old jazz player (Trombone) and he's really turned me on to Jazz. More than the casual listener I was before.
He's heading to University of Toronto in a few months with a focus on Jazz. (I need to fly him there for auditions entrance in February).
He performs 2-3 times a week with various combos in town so I get to see a lot of jazz lately.
Cheers!

The Ocean Cleanup Launches To The Great Pacific Garbage Patc
So, after months of issues including plastics both leaving the capture area through the entrance and just going directly under the "curtain", the device has broken catastrophically and was returned to port for repairs today, barely 3 months after deployment. Disappointing.
I'm glad they're trying something, but in reality even working perfectly this device could only clean the ocean surface like a single parking lot vacuum truck could clean and decontaminate the entire mid West. We would need hundreds of thousands of these working 24/7 to make a significant difference, and that would undoubtedly cause new insurmountable problems.
Besides, enormous amounts of plastics have degraded enough that they no longer float at the surface. These devices could never harvest that plastic, and that's the plastic entering the food web at the base, contaminating everything from phytoplankton up.
Monsoon V
You and me both. Years ago I had a job at White Sands Missile range, where the main entrance road was named after PFC Marvin R. Owen, an MP who had been on duty during one of those monsoon rains. Some guy reporting for duty from New Jersey, or some such station, didn't want to be late. So he drove into the running arroyo that separated him from post HQ. He had his wife and two kids with him as I recall, and they all started floating downstream. PFC Owen drove his pickup into the arroyo in an attempt to stop the car, but they were all swept away.
They all drowned in the middle of the desert, and the next day most likely there was hardly any water to be seen.
I tend not to be the first one to cross.
Takes me back to my childhood. Although it doesn't show the interminable lines of cars caught at washes (low water crossings) until one car is brave (or stupid) enough to try to cross.
Skyscraper window replacement falls from 47th floor
Did it go into the building? Almost looks like it made an entrance in the 10th or so floor.
The Hell Hole - Dropping Maltovs into a DEEP Hole
So these dickholes are throwing fireballs down an entrance to a beautiful natural wonder home to several endangered species of bats. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellhole
Someone should drop these redneck fucks down there.
Tina Fey on Protesting After Charlottesville - SNL
Holy Fuck!! Google "Trump Bonwit Teller":
https://www.fastcodesign.com/90137202/hey-remember-when-trump-destroyed-precious-art-history
New York Times:
"Plain as the building might be, the entrance was like a spilled casket of gems: platinum, bronze, hammered aluminum, orange and yellow faience, and tinted glass backlighted at night. In 1929 American Architect magazine called it “a sparkling jewel in keeping with the character of the store.”
"Upon learning about the historic building’s imminent demolition, and recognizing the cultural value of its ornamentation, the Metropolitan Museum of Art convinced Trump to remove portions of the historic facade and donate them to the institution."
"Soon he was backpedaling, after realizing that it would take two more weeks and $32,000...to properly take the reliefs off the building. Using his fake alter ago, a “Trump spokesperson” named John Baron, he told the New York Times in 1980: “The merit of these stones was not great enough to justify the efforts to save them.” His construction workers chopped up the metalwork with torches and let the sculptures fall to the ground to crack into smithereens."
Two, 15 foot high, irreplacable, Art Deco bas-relief sculptures smashed by Trump to save $32,000 in costs to remove them.
Counter Protest Attacked In Charlottesville, Va
Any news yet as to what triggered this dude?

Scaling A Climbing Wall With No Hands
Good job, great balance, calves aplenty, but "Proof"? The holds are closer together than the ones on the Kiddy Klimber for under 5's at the Dixie Mall, so you might want to check the "Too Big for This Ride" ruler at the entrance. Today's challenge - how about a 5.5? Have fun!
RAY MANZAREK-RIDERS ON THE STORM
I love these videos, the ones that you think you might not watch the whole thing, or you might skip ahead, but it is so entrancing that when its over, you are surprised that it was 10 minutes long.
The Brilliant Earth Diamond Scam
True. It's the diamond cartels (actually it may just be one now) that control how many diamonds are allowed onto the market each year, which is the only thing that keeps them valuable. There are diamond mines in the world that actually produced so many uncut diamonds, that they piled them up on the floor of the mine and then sealed the entrances with concrete, putting local miners out of work.
And diamonds...are not that rare.
It's a marketing hoax their value.
So it is really double irony.
It's not just Autotune - how singers cheat today(Pop Theory)
I was with him for the first part.
And it's not that I can't take him seriously because of his hair - I found it very distracting to take singing critique from a Bieber look-alike...
He lost me when he says, "Even though your favorite artists probably cheats a bit in the studio, try to remember that tracks that you love by them might not have existed without this technology speeding up their workflow."
First, I think people like T-pain, Kanye, and Drake are most of what is wrong with the music industry today. So they definitely are NOT my favorite artists. Honestly, I refuse to call them artists. Artists hone their skills through tireless hours, years and dedication. Something these people don't do. (Hence the need for Autotune)
His point is exactly the point. Without Auto-tune, we wouldn't have these songs because they are utter garbage. It's Auto-tune that is the star, not the personas "behind the curtain."
And also, there is no fast track to learning skills. Yes, as he states, "speeding up their workflow" is just that. Workflow. This means it helps them produce tons of this crap without ever improving their skills, because they don't need to. They just need to rapidly produce song after song, while waiting for the one that is the most catchy to stick in people's minds. Then the conglomerate of industry leaches will pick it it up in hopes they all generate a few bucks from it. Meaning, they get radio play for producing crap song, after crap song.
Sorry to rant here, but pick up an instrument, learn to play. Learn how to sing, learn to hit a note. Entrance us with your skills and abilities. Seduce us with abilities that impress us. Gain our respect with your talents.
The guy in this video is just as fake as a Bieber look-alike, and while he starts to point out that they are3 cheating, he ends by enabling them showing us how great Lois's recorded voice sounds like once Frankensteined. This is not okay.
Note: I'm posting this comment to the YouTube video as well
Beaver Dam Collapse
From the guy who owns the property and posted the video:
Update:
DAM REBUILT
6 weeks after this Collapse the Beavers rebuilt the dam to 4 ft high. The pond is now two thirds full and their house entrance should be accessible for the winter. By next summer I expect it to be totally rebuilt. -yt
Also here is a video with the new beaver pond in it(beginning of video), about four months after the original damn broke, I assume, as the videos were posted that far apart. https://youtu.be/ubk9vXVJ1q4
