Trump’s illicit attempt to change the address of 6 of his NY businesses to Florida failed. He tried changing their addresses on a judgement filing he made because he thought if he could get Engoron to accidentally use the wrong addresses before entering the judgement he could appeal claiming NY had no jurisdiction to take his assets now, and maybe in the pocket judge Cannon could save his empire. He was caught.

This is HIGHLY illegal and violates numerous laws and direct court orders. He just can’t stop being a criminal. Expect a new charge, and expect to hear about this new weaseley fraud attempt.

The filing was rejected judgement has now been entered, using the correct legal NY address for all of his businesses.

One more blatant Trump scam falls apart. He’s not the criminal he was just 7 years ago, not by half. Covid gave him permanent brain fog, and it was pretty dark and foggy in there beforehand. His diapers are full and his head is empty.

Now he’s rambling about Steak, Steak, Steak Mountain, so many rattle steaks and rough terrain and steepness nobody could come through they’re coming through by the thousands (and I guess they all have a months supply of steaks).

😂Meanwhile his lawyer submitted a motion to counter offer the judgement! WHAT!?!😂 Settlement offers come BEFORE a judgement, not AFTER! 😂

We usually get a few weeks right at or below freezing...but last year barely a few days (nights) reached freezing, and back up to mid 50's during the day.
I have a greenhouse, I'll try a few in pots I can put inside when it freezes.
Another problem we have is lack of sun. Our local airport (Arcata) was built to train pilots for fog landing, being the most consistently foggy place in the U.S.. there's little I can do if we have a foggy year.
The pineapple is in a 1/2 barrel that I brought inside for winter. The pineapple took 18 months to ripen, and was 8 bites in total, but that still counts imo. ;-)

If you could grow a pineapple you should be able to grow oranges and lemons. We have roughly socal weather here, and have no problems with either... but it never freezes here. You would need to protect the tree from freezing if you have temperatures much below 0°C for more than 10 hours at a time (google didn't answer that question for nocal, my query must've been off) but planting against a south facing brick or stone wall would help if it's marginal (obviously we'd be using a north facing wall).

p.s. worked out the right query, and nocal looks ok on the coast, and even OR and WA, but going further north to BC looked a bit iffy... but then people do manage it - http://www.5dollardinners.com/oranges-from-canada/

Real Time - Dr. Michael Mann on Climate Change

I don't understand. If you are selling at 5kw/h during daylight, why are you seeing only slight decline in your bill? It should be near zero, if not a check written to you if you are careful to not use much at night. I went from $4-500 per month electric bills (we have an electric hot tub that sucks major juice) to $30 bills in summer, and under $100 in winter. My system cost around $40K, and I got back around $5K (and lost out on tons more because when I bought it the tax rebates didn't roll over and I didn't use them all). I live in N California, where it's incredibly foggy, and it still took under 9 years to pay for itself in savings. Had I been able to use all the rebate (like you can now, it rolls over until you use it up) it would have been a year earlier paying itself off. Since the system should last 20 years, that's a great deal, even for you at 11-15 years to pay itself off, that's still 5-9 years of free juice, and 20 years of never losing power (if you have batteries).
Another benefit is from decentralizing power production. That makes you immune from most failures or any possible attacks on the system.
I do agree, it's not a perfect solution, and not 100% pollution free, but it's a great solution for most, if done right. The carbon costs are relatively small, and a one time event.

I'm all for nuke if done responsibly, which means not on coastlines, built with failsafe design features that don't require power to halt the reaction and store the fuel, and not experimented with to get a bit more power out (which caused Chernobyl and 3 mile island as I understand it).

Hydro, on the other hand, is always incredibly damaging to rivers, which along with providing the water we need, feed what little wildlife we have left. I am against any new hydro projects and advocate removing the failing one's we have now. They are short lived under the best of circumstances, but the damage they do is often permanent.

As a person who has solar on their roof, our bills have shown a slight decline (and I live in a tropical location with no obscuring of the panels), but that doesn't offset the cost of production (both in labour and energy input which is mostly supplied by carbon based sources). I run a 6 KW/h array which is slightly overclocked as we are capped at 5 KW/h input to the grid (at 8c KW/h sell, 36c KW/h buy). I'm looking at a ROI in ~11-15 years

There are also many studies (and not just from people who are pro nuke or anti-climate change) showing that solar PV in general, and rooftop solar specifically, is small potatoes in terms of energy returns, even when considering possible future gains in panel efficiency and storage technology.

I am not bashing solar because I don't like it, I spent the money to get an array on the roof because I think we do need to do something, but I'm not kidding myself in to believing that we're saving the planet when the vast majority of solar PV going out these days is manufactured in countries that emit enormous amounts of carbon and pay people peanuts to do the work... When, as you say, solar is heavily subsidised or has rebates offered to drive take up.

Nuke is expensive, but it returns far more energy than is invested to build it. Hydro, similarly (although Cali etc shows why hydro might be a dead end in this changing world climate). We can invest an enormous amount of time in half measures, or we can do it right, at least until we crack large scale fusion power production.

If it worked as well as it's hyped to do, huzzah, happy days. But so far, the boom is mostly hyperbole. At the very least, f#ck off subsidies/rebates etc to households and instead build huge solar PV farms with helio tracking arrays which make a better return on energy invested and basically give far more bang for buck. Or sink it all in to wind and cut back on PV. It's a feel good technology with hidden baked in carbon costs that is lulling us in to a false sense of security.

Tokyo dense fog

newtboy says...

I had no idea they have a statue of liberty in Tokyo!

Pretty, but it has nothing on SF fog, and we beat SF most of the time in thickness of fog, we just have nothing but 350' tall trees sticking above it here on the far North Coast (of California). We're so foggy (normally) that I've been told our airport was built as a training facility to teach instrument flying for WW2, it was the foggiest place in the US, so they put an airport here!

I knew about *kill but I wasn't sure if it could be resurrected or not if I did that. (Plus I have a bad head cold and things are a little foggy (that's my excuse anyways ))

Also if it's your own video and you would like to remove it at any time (dead or not) you can *kill or *discard it.

GoPro Pimping: Where's the camera?

"At least someone found something to do that's fun when it's freezing cold outside."

He's Norwegian, and we are experiencing the mildest winter in recent memory right now, its about +6 Celsius here now. in January. In Norway. Thats absolutely mental for this place. There is no snow. It rains, its foggy and shitty all over the place. Usually its -10 to -15 and white snow everywhere by now, but not this year.
