Rocket In The Sky Plus Accident

Lendl says...

It was not a test launch. It was an instantaneous launch just after sunset to launch 10 satellites. The clock on the dash cam must not be set to local time.

"SpaceX is targeting launch of Iridium-4 from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The instantaneous launch window is at 5:27 p.m. PST on Friday, December 22"

"The two-stage, kerosene-fueled rocket climbed into the rarefied upper atmosphere a few minutes following liftoff shortly after sunset at 5:27:34 p.m. PST (8:27:34 p.m. EST; 0127:34 GMT) from Space Launch Complex 4-East Vandenberg Air Force Base northwest of Los Angeles.

The Falcon 9 left a brilliant white plume of exhaust in its wake, catching rays of sunshine as it soared above the stratosphere. The ever-expanding plume left a teardrop-shaped mark in the sky, prompting countless social media posts from rush hour drivers and others who happened to catch an unexpected glimpse of the rocket’s trip to space."

at first I thought, "why don't they do these test launches late at night when fewer people are out on the roads?" then I saw the timestamp at the bottom was ~1:30am.

Accident was here: Google Maps
Highway 10, between LA and Phoenix.

Dashcam Video Of Alabama Cop Who Shot Man Holding His Wallet

newtboy says...

I also know nothing more than the video shows.

Would I do that? no, but I'm paranoid and have a terrible estimation of average police. That said, I don't think he did either. The jerky movements were because his door closed on him unexpectedly, making him drop his wallet. Without that accident making him fumble, wallet in raised hands shouldn't be scary.

Don't get me wrong, I agree it's not smart to have anything in your hands until cops are seemingly feeling safe because they're known to overreact with deadly force over nothing...but it's not fair to anyone to expect everyone to be terrified of police enough to sit perfectly still until told exactly what to do, with failure to do so ending in being shot. That ends with more citizens and more cops shot over nothing but fear.

Khufu said:

Don't know the full story, but all I'm saying is that if a cop is coming up to your car, even if he doesn't have his gun drawn, would you be all jerky like that and pull your wallet out in front of you will both hands really fast? from the cop's point of view it would have appeared very much like the guy was pulling a gun. Not saying the cop was right, just that if I was playing the game I mentioned I would have shot him too. but I'm not a cop so....

ABC News: Purity Balls: Lifting the Veil on Special Ceremony

BSR says...

I think the father risks sowing the seeds of resentment from his own daughter which in turn may really test his own beliefs.

I think it better to "expect the unexpected" than it is to not trust her. All he has to do is be there for her when she needs him.

Where do these girls have a say in their own lives? Why are they not given the chance to make a few mistakes and learn what they want in a man. Not everyone wants the same thing.

Spinout Close Call At Kaitoke Intersection

robbersdog49 says...

I would take that route out every time.

Turning to the right would require not only a larger change in direction from me, but also the risk of hitting oncoming traffic rather than a very slow moving/stationary vehicle or running off onto grass.

As for the over correction, that's someone driving in a very stressful situation and doing their best. Just about every car you can buy in the UK now has stability control that would have prevented that spin, and the amount of training it would take for someone to be able to reliably control a car without that stability control through a stressful and unexpected situation like that would be overly prohibitive.

The larger swerve required to go to the right of the car cutting in across the lane would have made the car a lot more unstable and a lot more likely to turn over.

Bad call to go to the right. She made the right choice, and less dangerous one and everyone walked away.

Buddy turns INTO the path of the oncoming car, then over-corrects into a spin-out. Terrific work.

WW2 has ended? Oh, Grandma

AeroMechanical says...

Yeah... I can understand laughing at it the first time when it's unexpected because it's pretty funny, but making her try it again and again while continuing to laugh at her isn't very nice. She is clearly frightened and confused. Leads to more social anxiety, leads to more isolation, leads to worse dementia.

"Trump has no desire and no capacity to lead the world'

Asmo says...

Entirely true, but not entirely unexpected. America (and by that I mean the leaders) has spent so long stomping around and declaring itself the leader of the free world that unilateral action without US approval has become somewhat rare.

I'm sure a lot of American's are fed up with the absurd cost of doing business as the leader of the west of course (both financially and in terms of lives lost/time spent), but it leaves an uncomfortable vacuum when the POTUS checks out of the game. I also suspect that many countries are wary about Tump's erratic reactions to whatever they do.

Kudos to Uhlman for saying what a lot of folks were thinking though.

Don't get me wrong I despise Trump but why didn't that statement come from one of the other 19 countries?

Never turn your back on the ocean

Diogenes says...

heh heh, this guy's having a laugh...

how could it be unexpected?? the sets come in at pretty well-timed intervals, the backwash for such a wave would be pulling backwards (hard) on his waist and thighs, and he'd have heard it

i grew up about a five-minute drive from sandy beach on oahu, and had my dad throwing me into the shorebreak from about the age of seven...laughing his ass off, while i'd stagger out of the surf half-drowned and with my sand-filled trunks around my ankles

here are some cool photos of the place by an old college buddy of mine:

Son of a bitch....now being reported that he hung himself...as in intentional suicide.
Ugh. I'm finding that far more depressing than his unexpected death, which I found depressing.

Racist is what you do, not what you say.
