ATTN: Due to multiple incidents routes across the city are experiencing service impacts. Svc to/from the downtown area is being severely impacted by the overturned big rig on the EB Bay Bridge. Expect longer wait times.

Took a walk to inspect the damage from this afternoon's storm in San Francisco. Three big trees toppled in our local park.

I mean, really bad.

Just in:
- Ferry services have been suspended due to severe weather
- Avoid the area of EB Lombard St at Gough St due to An obstruction
- Big Rig Rollover on Bay Bridge EB before Treasure Island

Geez! San Francisco is sending out a bunch of alerts about obstructions blocking roads. I've never seen this many happen in such a short time.

Holy crap, is San Francisco getting hit by a rain and wind storm right now.
Water was shooting under a closed window and made a puddle on my dining room floor.
Not a good situation when trying to paint said dining room.

I've read that encouraging a lack of interest in politics is a strategy the soviet and Russian leadership employed to ensure their positions in authority.

Basically, nobody cared what was going on.

And, they assume that leadership knows what's best because they have access to more information than the public.

I used to be a peacenik. I thought everyone should be a passivist.

Then I realized that people like Putin love to take advantage of those people and will not be reasoned with.

No, not really. Especially not their leaders.

I wonder if that delta is sufficient evidence for suing lawmaker?

This is a hard-to-swallow indictment of a powerful editor and a take-no-prisoners publication (Rolling Stone).

The journalist tried to maintain the integrity of the story, but the editor omitted key facts because the story was about his friend.

Ultimately, the subject of the FBI raid, a journalist, was targeted because of child abuse and not because of his reporting.

Well, the wife just left for a 2 week business trip and this mouse is working his ass off getting the house painted before she returns.

I'm exhausted!

1 cubic meter of air, at sea level, at 100% humidity, at room temperature has 0.088 cups of water

I've just calculated that polished copper can condense water vapor at a rate 17X that of water itself.

So, if a cool, dry, polished copper surface was exposed to air with adequate humidity, it would begin condensing water.

If it was then wiped away and collected, it would continue attracting water at 17X the rate of the wet copper.

If true, that system could be a highly efficient source of water.

Today's condenser systems have the water dripping off, keeping the condenser always wet.
