Yesterday was the last day of the school year for the kids and the first night of summer vacation was spent allowing them to stay up late and watch The Wizard of Oz on TMC. I started it with a trip to the doctor for a sinus infection.
Fiery lava from Hawaii’s ongoing volcanic eruption has completely evaporated the water from Green Lake, the Big Island’s largest freshwater lake, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The assassination by evaporation began this past Saturday morning (June 2), when lava from Fissure 8 flowed into the lake and boiled the water away. The lake didn’t go peacefully, either. Rather, the boiling water turned into a thick white plume that reached high into the sky, the USGS reported.
The opinion piece points out the lack of church bells in churches nowadays, something so obviously true with all the modern church building but something I never thought about. My old church in Mineral Wells had a bell but I only recall it being rung once.
Some folks tried to carjack a Nissan Leaf but they couldn’t figure out how to operate the car and as well as some other stuff.
That’s because in the Arabic alphabet, no letter exists with a hard “p” sound, making it tough for Arabic speakers to pronounce the letter P. Arabs have worked around this issue with the closest alternative — the Arabic equivalent of the letter “B” (ب). Across the Middle East, Pepsi is known as “Bebsi.” Pizza is “bizza.”
I like all these concept U.S. dollars by artist Andrey Avgust. There’s a video at the top of the page, but just scroll down and you can see all the images.
Is it a coincidence that this was a headline to the side of that story:
Steam Equals Money
improve your steam flow measurement & end wasting one of your most valuable assets—steam.
Your car won’t pass inspection because of a check engine light?!? I’ve got a 2001 Suburban with over 280,000 miles and the check engine light has been on for seven years. It still runs fine. Thank god I live in Colorado where we don’t have those useless car inspections.
Legislation was introduced to stop automobile inspections but it didn’t reach the desk of the governor. I’m in favor of inspections and don’t find it useless. I like the idea of knowing that other vehicles should meet a certain level of safety like working brakes, blinkers, and proper tire tread. Some folks are against the emissions part, and I understand that, but as you’d figure, I support it as well even if it costs me. But hey, I guess that’s the beauty of these United States, states rights, and you get that freedom of not having to worry about this sort of thing.
