Lunar eclipse 2021 los angeles1/23/2024 ![]() ![]() The next total lunar eclipse will be on May 15 to 16, 2022. The reddish glow comes as a result of sunlight refracting off the Earth's rim onto the moon's surface. ![]() The eclipse on Wednesday is not only the first total lunar eclipse in more than two years, but will also be occurring during a "super moon," when the moon is just 360,000 kilometers (225,000 miles) from Earth.Īstronomers say it will thus appear about 7% larger than normal and 15% brighter than usual.Īt its farthest point from our planet, the moon is about 405,000 kilometers away. What is the 'Super Blood Moon' phenomenon? It lists local timings of all phases of Lunar Eclipse after adjusting for DST, including first and last contact timings with the Penumbra and Umbra and time of maximum of Eclipse.

Stargazers in southern Chile and Argentina may also enjoy the spectacle. In the United States, people in Alaska and Hawaii will get the best views if they are early risers. The height of the eclipse will happen between 11:11 and 11:25 UTC, which is late evening Wednesday in Sydney and just before dawn in Los Angeles. When and where can the 'Super Blood Moon' be viewed? ![]() The event is being called a "Super Blood Moon," with some poetically minded astronomers waxing even more lyrical by terming it a "Super Flower Blood Moon," the full moon in May being known as a "Flower Moon" in reference to spring flowers. If skies are clear, viewers will be able to see a moon that appears much larger than normal, bathed in an orangey-red glow. A lunar spectacle awaits stargazers along the Pacific Rim on Wednesday when the moon will undergo a total eclipse while at its closest position to Earth. Thankfully, our friends out in Los Angeles at the Griffith Observatory will be live streaming the event starting at 3:45 through 8 a.m., shortly after the last partial phase of the eclipse has. ![]()

Sebastian stardew valley1/23/2024 ![]() Their main differences are a case of Age-Appropriate Angst: the younger Sebastian's self-esteem issues are largely connected to his family, while the older Shane's esteem issues are down to the general direction his life has taken.but they still have basically the same issue: they are uncomfortable around people and have low self-worth. As noted above, they even look alike: dark-haired men who favor hoodies. On a meta-level, Sebastian and Shane are both the same archetype: the cynical bad-boy loner who's grumpy to everyone until you win them over and discover the hidden heart of gold and kind to animals: Shane dotes on his chickens, and Sebastian pays close attention to the local wildlife and the farm animals (plus there's his penchant for void eggs).On the soundtrack, "Echos" is specifically Sebastian's theme. Possibly a little bit of a stretch, since most of the Stardew music multitasks.but in your heart-to-heart with Shane at the dock, the melancholy tune "Echos" is playing.It's all but stated that both Sebastian and Shane struggle with depression (Shane giving you practically the dictionary definition of depression when you speak to him at the dock, and Sebastian frequently making worrying comments about whether it would matter if he "disappeared").It may be that Shane's drinking had a negative effect on Sebastian, just as Pam's alcoholism badly affected Penny. Perhaps their reasons are the same: Pam is definitely an alcoholic, and Shane is heavily implied to at least use alcohol as a crutch. ![]() There's another adamant teetotaller in the valley: Penny. Another hint: when it comes to gifts, alleged "bad boy" Sebastian despises all types of alcohol.It would fit in nicely with the theory that Shane was Robin's first husband.Sebastian's biological father is Shane.They look similar, and it would make some sense. Joja Corp wants to mine and pillage even the afterlife so people can't even sleep or die without its influence.Sebastian is conflicted - does he want an eternity of static peace with which he is bored, or a life in the material world with all its problems? Etc. Alex is in a coma from a football injury and may or may not survive to go pro in the material world. The Wizard and Emily can pass through the dimensions due to spiritual practice and/or drugs. Haley's and Emily's parents are still alive in the material world. The Farmer died from overwork at Joja or (TW: suicide mention) was Driven to Suicide.Those who leave have passed through to their next reincarnation, and Zuzu City is symbolic of being reincarnated into a modern world and its troubles rather than choosing the eternal peace of the valley. Those who have chosen to stay have actually died in one life and are waiting for their next, or have chosen to settle in the world as their version of the afterlife. The residents who are free to travel to/through other places are merely dreaming or temporarily unconscious/tripping/comatose. Nevertheless, it looks like none of them is younger than 20.Ĭlint is late 30 / early 40, as confirmed by Stardew Valley’s creator ConcernedApe.Stardew Valley is a waystation for dreams/the afterlifeEverything from characters' ages to appearances to pretty much everything else is static, and while there is time, it is also a timeless space where the days, weeks, years are all the same. Haley and Alex are listed as adults in the game code while Abigail, Penny, Maru, Sebastian, and Sam are listed as teens. ![]() Maru works at the local clinic, she is younger than Sebastian.Įmily and Haley are siblings, and considering the way they act with each other, most probably the age gap between them isn’t big. There is not a high school in town, and none of the characters ride the bus to a high school.Ībigail and Sam are taking college classes online. Jas and Vince are in first grade, which is confirmed by the book in Penny’s room about how to teach first graders. ![]()

Ommwriter not1/23/2024 ![]() ![]() Visit Ommwriter: ( $7.20) Comments () You might also like.Writing is a peculiar profession. I would also recommend that you try it out for yourself. I have linked a video below so you can take a look at its interface. It won’t make you a better writer, but it will give you tools to help you along your journey. It makes writing feel a little better than it actually is. It’s available for both Windows and macOS. Let’s bring this back to a conclusion, shall we? Ommwriter is the best distraction-free writing software you can use. If you want an in-depth look at any of the two software I just mentioned, let me know in the comments section below. I recommend Scrivener if you are planning to write a novel or any kind of long-form writing for that matter and Ulysses for organizing blog posts. Since there is no organizational structure inside the app, you will need a separate app to organize your material. However, not everything will sit well with everyone here. The distraction-free atmosphere gives you brain ample time to bring out its creativity and the writing just flows once you find your groove. I can’t describe it to you, but the sound makes every keystroke feel beautiful and you will feel joy of typing.Īll these features make typing and writing on Ommwriter a joyous ride. There are a lot of variations to choose from, and I love all of them. My favorite feature is the sound that the app makes when you hit a keystroke. All these are good but they are not my favorite features. I don’t use that feature as I work best in silence, but you can give it a try if you like that. The app also comes with various background sounds to help you concentrate and get in the zone. The picture above shows my favorite background but there are many more to choose from. I love that we can change the page background. You will see the same theme repeating here. The choices are limited, but I have a feeling that the developers did this to minimize the choices. Firstly, there are a few fonts types which you can choose from. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at some of the extra features that Ommwriter has to offer us. A quick discloser here, I have been testing this app on my MacBook Pro so I don’t know how it behaves on Windows, but I assume everything I say here will apply for the Windows version too. This means that when you launch the app, you know you are doing it because you want to right. ![]() The best part is that when you launch the app, it automatically goes to full-screen and doesn’t even have a window mode. Now what you ask? Well, now you start typing. Well, coming back to Ommwriter, it gives you that blank page along with that blinking cursor. Now, both the quotes have very different meanings, but I hope I am making my point clear. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.” There’s a similar one from Ernest Hemingway which goes like this, “ There is nothing to writing. That’s a really powerful quote if you ask me. I really love this quote from Gene Fowler which sums this up perfectly, “ Writing is easy: All you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.” Yes, that’s the dreaded blank page which we all stare at some point in time in our lives. Look at the picture below to understand what I am saying. But, when I really started using it, I realised that I don’t need those features, they are just a way to distract my mind away from something which is the only thing that matters Writing. It confused the hell out me, after all, there was no way to create a document, no formatting option, nothing at all. When you launch the app, the only thing you see is a blank sheet of coloured paper with a blinking cursor at the top. ![]() That was because when I was trying this one out, I could only see the missing features and not see far enough to realise that Ommwriter was missing those features for a reason. When I first found this software, I was on the fence for so many days before I finally decided to buy it. This is the best writing software I have ever landed my hands on. I don’t know how and when I discovered this software but I am happy that I did. ![]() What we need is something which can kill all the distractions and provide us with a place to write and for me, Ommwriter provides me that distraction-free place. While we can go back the old route and use a pen and paper, most of us will not be able to finish even a page before our hands start betraying us. Even the machine a writer uses to get the writing done can act as a portal to the world of distractions. Today, the biggest hurdle which a writer has to face are the multitudes of things around him/her which are constantly trying to distract him. While no piece of software can help you churn out a story or a novel if you don’t have it in you, there are services which can help you create an environment where your writing can flow naturally. ![]()

I dont fuck with you ring tone1/23/2024 ![]() ![]() As of February 2015, the song has sold 1,268,000 copies in the US. ![]() It also marked Big Sean's seventh and E-40's fifth top 20 single. "I Don't Fuck with You" peaked at number 11 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming Big Sean's third highest-charting single on the chart and E-40's second-highest. We had a breakup that was very public, and we were young and we forgave each other and moved on from that". I truly made the song and played it for her. She's made such an impact on people, and she's done so many great things in her life and her career that it was hurtful to even have that be associated with her. In a September 2020 interview, following Rivera's death, he stated he wished he never made the song: "I don't feel comfortable talking about it because I want to respect her. Although it was widely speculated that Sean wrote the song about the end of his relationship with Rivera, he denied that the song is about her. ![]() Rivera then began dating actor Ryan Dorsey, whom she married on July 19, 2014, the original date set for her wedding to Big Sean. Sean had been in a relationship with actress Naya Rivera and the couple announced their engagement in October 2013, but Sean ended the relationship in April 2014. The clean edit of the song produced for radio airplay does not contain either the word "fuck" or other words in the lyrics prohibited by the FCC. Producers included Mike Will Made It, DJ Dahi, Nate Fox, Da Internz, L&F, and Key Wane.

On September 12, 2014, Big Sean announced he had signed with Roc Nation for a management deal, but stated he was still with GOOD Music. The record was supposed to be Justin's, but there was no communication with the management, so producer DJ Mustard decided to give the record to Big Sean. On March 19, 2014, Justin Bieber uploaded to Instagram a snippet of "Turn Up", which has the same beat. All performers and producers receive songwriting credits alongside co-producers DJ Dahi and Key Wane, with additional songwriting from longtime Big Sean affiliate, Michigan rapper Willie "SayItAintTone" Hansbro. Closing adlibs are performed over a slowed down version of the 1978 Earth, Wind & Fire song " September". Rogers song " Say You Love Me One More Time". "I Don't Fuck with You" was produced by DJ Mustard, Mike Free and GOOD Music label boss Kanye West, and samples the 1976 D.

Highest defcon level ever1/23/2024 ![]() The "DEFCON 3" claim (seemingly debunked by its originators in the comments) wasn't the first instance during which Superstation95 has advanced alarmist hoaxes or conspiracy theories on social media. Appearing in late 2015, Superstation95 wasted no time in embellishing what were often legitimate tragedies or unfortunate events with falsified but upsetting details. (The information on the site's " Contact" page references Turner's criminal lawyer.) This is just what WE think has happened, and it would be best for you to not spread misinformation and actually link your sources.Ĭontrary to initial appearances, Superstation95 is neither a radio "superstation" nor an actual news source, but rather a conspiracy site that peddles false claims and misinformation from Hal Turner, a felon who spent 33 months in prison for making death threats against three federal judges in 2009. I sincerely hope you know that the Defcon Warning System website it not government run and does not mean the US has changed the DEFCON level itself. At all times, citizens are urged to learn what steps to take in the event of a nuclear attack.Ī commenter by the name of "Alex" responded to Superstation95 and, apparently be speaking on behalf of the Defcon Warning System site, stated: The public should make their own evaluations and not rely on the DEFCON Warning System for any strategic planning. It is not affiliated with any government agency and does not represent the alert status of any military branch. The DEFCON Warning System is a private enterprise which monitors world events and assesses nuclear threats against the United States by national entities. As such, the actual "Armed Forces of the United States" had nothing to do with any DEFCON-related tweets: That page was appended with a disclaimer disclosing that the site was in no way affiliated with nor party to credible intelligence from any government agency or military branches, and that it "monitors world events" independently. The DEFCON Warning System web site itself displayed the following message on 20 June 2016: Still looking for more as information is still sketchy. Unusual #UnitedStates strategic activity now being observed. Nothing observable in operations theater. We don't know what Russia is reacting to. Unusual #strategic activity observed in #Russia. The SuperStation95 article (which leaned heavily on words like "likely" and "reportedly") appeared to include manually-published updates, the bulk of which were transcribed tweets lifted from (but not attributed to) the Twitter account of the (non-government related) DEFCON Warning System web site: When the attacks of September 11 took place, the US Military was upgraded only to DefCon 4.įor the US to have implemented DefCon 3 at 9:43 PM EDT on a Sunday night, means something very big is taking place. To understand the severity of DefCon 3, it would help to realize that on September 10, 2001, the US Military was at DefCon 5. It increases in severity from DEFCON 5 (least severe) to DEFCON 1 (most severe) to match varying military situations. It prescribes five graduated levels of readiness (or states of alert) for the U.S. The DEFCON system was developed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) and unified and specified combatant commands. The defense readiness condition (DEFCON) is an alert state used by the United States Armed Forces. had raised the national defense readiness alert level because "something very big is taking place":Īt 9:43 PM Eastern US last night (Sunday, June 19) the Armed Forces of the United States were reportedly ordered to set condition "DEFCON 3." This is an extraordinary development and signals serious trouble, LIKELY requiring an expedited military response.

Expo markers1/23/2024 ![]() ![]() Most whiteboard markers consist of three components: color pigment, a solvent and an oily silicone polymer (also known as a “release agent”). Pro tip: If you really want to use a marker on paper, try a Sharpie or any other marker that is specifically meant for paper. ![]() Luckily, NPP members get deals on work supplies from brands such as Staples. 2.) The tip can become damaged if you use it on regular paper. I repeat, you cannot remove dry erase markers from paper so don’t blame me if you make this mistake. ![]() So, we know you’re wondering, “what are the most pressing dry-erase questions today?” NPP experts are here to share the scuttlebutt from businesses coast to coast.ĭry-erase ink works on regular paper, but be aware of two things: 1.) When used on paper the mark is permanent. Today’s whiteboard markers use alcohol-based, non-toxic solvents. Whiteboard markers have evolved over the years, adding more color options and removing harmful, foul-smelling chemical solvents. Not long after the invention of the dry-erase marker, Woolfe sold the patent to Pilot Pens. Wet markers were generally used on sheets for overhead projectors. The whiteboard marker was invented in 1975 by a man named Jerry Woolfe, nearly 20 years after the whiteboard was invented! Dry-erase markers evolved from wet markers, which required a damp towel to be cleaned… or a whole new whiteboard. No fully stocked supply closet is worth its weight in Post-it notes without whiteboard markers. Nonetheless, whiteboard markers are a must when it comes to supplies for work. Amiright? Not so much? Okay, maybe it’s just me. There are few joys at work like pulling the cap off a brand new dry-erase marker, ready to drop some whiteboard knowledge in multiple colors. ![]() |
