    Just changed the battery on my first Thermopen MK4 , safe to say this has served several thousand people at a " Safe food temp " for many years ...

    I'm sad to say my thermo pen has mostly been in hot dogs.  Serving about 800 hot dogs to the community each summer.  .   All these pre cooked dogs must be over 165 internal before serving.  Health dept watching like a hawk.

    Tape up a sheet of tinfoil.  Worked for me (although it was a sparrow, in my case).

    Gila Woodpeckers around here.  4 fake owls that I move every 3 days and spinners tapped to my windows finally worked.

    We tried a red towel but foil might just work. I am told they are fighting their reflection.

    Shaking my head.  Just over half of my career has been in the Explosives Safety field. To store such volatile/dangerous materials, within a large port city, for years, boggles my mind. Thoughts to the citizens of Beirut.   :s

    No.  I don't have a twitter account, some that are posted on forums/farcebook I can see, some I can't.  I did get sound, it didn't sound good.   :|

    If 2020 were a watermelon, that would be it.  Are you sure it is not a yellow watermelon?

    We had a bird doing this earlied in the year. I used strips of HDAF, added some gaffer tape to the top edge to reinforce and fixed with small nails. The movement puts the bird off.

    Looks like Fulham gets the invite. Brentford fans would've been spewing hatred toward Duke all season anyway.
    Now the PL kicks in for Fulham, two options for them;
    1) Spend all the new money and give it a go, but likely get walloped and go straight back down.  See the majority of clubs.
    2) Spend a mediocre amount of money,  bank as much as possible, go down and then be the best team in the championship the next season and come back up.   See Norwich this year.

    Just over 50% of promoted teams go straight back down, normally that's 2 per season of the new arrivals, occasionally all three and very rarely none.    About two thirds are back down the following season.  So PL churn is quite low, and the top six are accelerating away. 

    For Brentford the challenge will be keeping their talent and/or sustaining momentum for next season.   They are building a big new stadium, which is traditionally a challenging experience for teams see; Arsenal, Spurs and West Ham recently. Albeit West Ham essentially stole theirs from the tax-payer.....

    Europe league under way again tonight.  Man Utd all but through, Wolves could make it.  Steve Gerrard's Rangers won't. 
    Other girls may try to take me away

    Long term the churn is most teams. Is it 7 with long term uninterrupted PL football? Everton looked dodgy this season as well.

    its going to get nuts soon, im just thinking about dorm move in day in the cambridge ma area, thats nutty enough with out this going on. nieghbors a professor over at umass lowell, older and frail, he has already been told not to step in on campus, he will be online til he cant take it any more. it wont be long, he is one of those guys that gets in at 5 am to start his day
    They started dorm move in here on Monday and are spreading it over 2 weeks to limit congestion. Students are tested at move in, we have 24hr turnaround on testing as our vet school processes the tests.  They have a dorm building dedicated to isolation for folks testing positive.  Lectures are online with labs I. A sort of hybrid mode depending on the class and required learning needs.  I think the leadership here has done the best they can for a highly fluid situation.  We’ll find out how well this is Working in about 3-4 weeks since classes start in less than 2 weeks and we’ll likely see the first surge.


    hope they stagger it here, theres maybe 50 campuses in the boston/cambridge area. people triple park in the streets and unload to the sidewalks

    I don't think there's going to be a college football season folks.  Hate to be a Debbie Downer but I'm just not seeing it.   The NCAA will probably wait until several athletes have gotten terribly sick or worse before pulling the plug, but I just don't see how it can possibly work.  
    They are going to give it a go. Big Ten is starting fall camp tomorrow. We will see how long it lasts.

    On a camera tri-pod ... nice idea. What size is that TV (actually how heavy is it)? How did you get the bracket to work so it goes into that tri-pod?

    That doesn't look like a camera tripod.  Looks like it's made to hold monitors

    The TV is a 49 TCL 5 series. This is the stand. I can carry the stand with the TV attached to and from my garage where I store it.
