The shadows on the lake are of clouds. So is something polarizing the light? The temperature dropped: might this be a factor?

Needs another up vote.

The problem with your idea is graphs/charts showing growth would be showing 'growth' by going down and not up.

You might do graphs like that. I would not.

These orcas control the waves to hunt
Its spine-tingling to watch.
Using a technique passed down through generations, these orcas have mastered huntingon ice.

PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 13, 2023

The first time the Weddell seal notices the orcas, its already surrounded. Until moments before, it had been resting on an ice floe deep in an Antarctic channel. Then three killer whales heads appear, bobbing up and down. The orcas are hunting.

On this sheet of sea ice, the nearly thousand-pound seal would be unreachable for most marine predators. But these orcasa matriarch with her daughter and granddaughterare three of about a hundred known to have mastered a hunting technique called wave washing. The secret: working together to turn water into a weapon.

The orcas, having identified their target, form a battle line and start charging toward the floe. Just before reaching it, they rotate to their sides in a single, synchronized motion and plunge underwater. The momentum creates a wave so powerful that it floods the ice sheet, cracking the surface and whipping the flailing seal around. Slowly and methodically, they repeat the charge. The ice fractures more. On the third charge, the wave sends the seal flying into the sea. It scrambles to climb onto a piece of ice, then disappears from view, grabbed from below by a killer whale.

Its completely sinister to watch, says wildlife filmmaker Bertie Gregory, whos spent a decade tracking the orcas, known as B1, a population of pack ice killer whales. The level of intelligence that goes into making each wave is staggering, he says. This isnt subtle. They are problem solving using very complex teamwork. Theyre using water as a tool. Sometimes itll take one wave, about five minutes, before a seal is flung into the sea. Other times a pod can wave wash up to 30 times, about two to three hours, before getting the prey. Scientists rarely see failed hunts. This behavior is not innate; its learned and mastered over decades, says Gregory. Every time they make waves, it almost feels like more of a teaching experience than hunting.

But as Antarctica warms and sea ice vanishes, Weddell seals are increasingly staying on land, out of orcas reach. To track how the B1 orcas cope with a warming habitat, scientists have identified all hundred or so individuals. Theyve found B1s are losing about 5 percent of their population every year. Whether this subgroup will go extinct or just adapt their behavior, we dont know, says Gregory. But with fewer opportunities for the orcas to wave wash, were seeing an extinction of a culture.

I am trying to read the article in Reuters. I am confused because their article starts with a pic of smoke rising dated yesterday so ...

I would have thought that if you tell people to evacuate in 24 hours that you give them 24 hours.

They did it wrong. There is no need to admit that you have been doing it wrong.

Just start measuring angles clockwise.

What I said. Clockwise is the correct way.

Angles should be positive in the clockwise direction. What were they thinking? Life would be so much easier if stuff like this was intuitive.

Yes, because you have consistently been equating Palestinians with Hamas and it's fucking disgusting.

I would not put it like this. Not because I think otherwise but because people must come around and it is in their best interest to realize that the Gaza residents are no more Hamas than I am Donald Trump.

Not letting this die.

It might not, but when you live in an open air prison your options are somewhat limited

Are you just pretending to know something or do you have links?

For the blockade in the last 30 days?

I live in Chicago. If you Blockaded Chicago and closed off access to Lake Michigan,

Saying if ... people would be starving and filthy in 2 weeks if not earlier.

Much of the food for the people in Gaza comes from international organizations. The people who do have jobs need to pass through the Blockade to work.

Word is that the Blockade was near total for the last few weeks.

I am looking for more data. I would appreciate links to articles about the Blockade in the last 30 days. Help me build a picture of what really happened.

I do not see how the attack on Israel is going to help the people living in Gaza.

what?

Read cultural archeology much?

Villages have an economy where everyone is indispensable so you pay for crimes by working it off. The eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth belongs to an economy where there are new arrivals to replace the eyeless and toothless and nobody cares about losers.

Tux is home. Lyft hired investigators to find her.

I deeply wish for the employee's recovery.

This is why punishment is overrated. While it is possible for the attacker to compensate. Punishing them will not even heal a hangnail.

I am saying that the attacker would not have done this if we Americans did not trust in punishment.

No more Trump topics without a pic of him behind bars

Lately I have been keeping flour, sugar, butter and eggs on hand. Cookies are really easy if

you set the better and eggs out to warm first

you just get the flour inside the dough without really mixing it in

you use parchment paper on the cookie sheet

you set a timer and take cookies out when it goes off.

*** Cookies just need to collapse a bit when removed from the oven.

No.

Well, years ago there was this awesome pizza place on Armitage near Sheffield (Chicago). They could pull that off but not every pizza shop could. In fact people keep getting less adventurous about pizza and the menus keep shrinking.

Unless you believe aliens landed and built for "the cavemen" this is an artifact. People who can notch 2 logs together build bridges and walkways.

Being poor means knowing poor people and caring about poor people as opposed to caring about poor under-appreciated little you.

This is big. There is a notion that 400 thou to 600 thou years ago the ancestors of today's humans were cavemen.

Two archeologists climbed down a cliff and found two logs that had been braced together with notches like Lincoln logs. Luminescence dating places them more than 400,000 years ago. It is unusual for worked lumber to be preserved in Africa

The wealthy do what they can to keep prices up so nothing good is going to happen without having people who despise each other have the brain flash that they can work together.

What

Exactly.

I am wondering whether the economic sanctions on Venezuela for the noble goal of punishing them has something to do with prices being higher. I am only too happy to do without to support American elite wealth in its quest to guide us on to moral capitalism.

No, but it did adapt to not use random capitalization. For most people anyway.

You need to read capitalization rules. Problem solved.

Words like "the" only get capitalized when

Someone does not know any better
When it is the first word in the subject title
When it is done for emphasize as in "The Pooh"

its the density of glass and water that makes it visible and air not visible unless its hot while being transparent not some trick of the brain

I am willing to admit that I do not know how much primate vision can be refined.

However, you are claiming to know that it could not be refined enough to see air.

You know how you can see glass and see water?

Even when a substance is transparent there are tricks we use to see it. But there is no need to see air. So we ignore it.

I think if we lived in the water we would stop being aware of seeing the water blocking our vision.

What makes us unique is how our memory is setup. A reboot for Groog would require that not only memory be backed up but that there be the specs for how it is organized.

It is so cool that someone has the energy to do this at night and that his boss lets him.

We should all have jobs like this.

I love the choices but cannot make one.

Good thing I took screen shots of my readouts. This morning the numbers are acceptable and much improved. I would not know it has improved without the record. ( It still feels unpleasant. )

I hope you realize I know more about this than you do.

CO has one Oxygen ion per Carbon ion

CO2 has two Oxygen ions per Carbon ion.

All you need to do is tune the furnace for more air

PRESTO SNAPO low CO

This is consistent with the one pipe for all 3 furnaces. There is solid brick wall where the furnaces are so none of them vent to the side.

There is one vent to the roof and a whole bunch of dumbbunnies taking meds for breathing problems and headaches

I think that if I can set my furnace to permanently be blower on, then I will not get the backup.

Manager has his assistant replacing hot water heater.

Reality check.

What does a hot water heater have to do with

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/0/4/5/AACsDqAAE4Bd.png

Is the reasoning here:

There is a problem
We fixed something we were planning to fix
Therefore problem fixed

?

Is a hot water heater even running in the wee hours in the morning? The CO2, VOC go up between 2 and 3 am.

3 flat/ 6 units. Rear of building had a stack of 3 furnaces. I suspect that there is 1 pipe going up to the outside for all 3 apartments.

How are others not sick you ask? Sick Americans see their doctor. Doctor gives them paper to take to CVC. They happy, Doc happy. People who do not think are happier but not healthier

I had a neighbor who would divide and conquer by offering you his stuff when he saw you doing something related. It was not his stuff. He was setting you up as the guy who does not respect property of others.

Nice guy?

It is not just a social construct. It is s construct tuned by economic interactions and by the media.

If you take a random person from my neighborhood in Chicago and a random person from Orlando Florida, I am guessing that the two of us from my neighborhood will have more in common than the other 2 pairings because we are dealing with the same thing and we see the same thing.

However, say the other two immigrated from Peru. I am going to call that they will believe that they two have more in common.

People vote for stuff obviously bad for them because they have been persuaded that they belong to white America and what they voted for is good for white America.

You totally are entitled to foam at the mouth at not getting Obama care.

I think the CE 'rs telling you that you need to be examined are correct. Why not get an estimate and do a GoFundMe?

I see that the need for school to be a safe place . Expelling them does not bother me.

I am deeply disturbed that these girls feel "they must be punished and made an example of and there is no other option".

A petition and demanding expulsion seems like rote thinking where innovation is needed.

No it was not better but global warming had not progressed as far, Putin was unthinkable, Trump was unthinkable

Thinking was that if we get fascism, we will still turn things around. Thinking now is that fascism may well be irreversible.

Understanding of what makes people tick has improved. Indoctrination used to be imposed from without. Now we know how to put people in situations where they indoctrinate each other.

Glad to hear you volunteer to place pothos in public school classrooms. You deserve a medal.

I want to get to the bottom of this so instead of going to bed like a good lil CE'r. I am sitting out in the yard monitoring my readout.

I turned off the Whispure510 and I turned off the fan of the Mila Cares. AQI has gone up to 12.6. CO2 812 ppm VOC 335ppb. It is the particulate count driving up the AQI.

CO still 0ppm so the air purifiers have nothing to do with it being 0

Seriously? AQI 12.6

AQI is oscillating. 10.1, 18.2

Nice.
