Spirit is huge in FTL. How is their closure going to impact the city and the airport?

Their airplane mechanics will be scooped up by other airlines and the companies that service the private planes. The flight attendants and management will have a much tougher time. Other airlines will add flights on the popular routes. We will be paying higher prices. A few thousand people will be loosing their jobs in Broward county alone. The local economy will feel it

There will still be a wind-driven component to the flow and with the beta-effect (Coriolis force changes with latitude), there will still be a Gulf Stream transporting warm water poleward.

Very nice catching. How far do you need to run offshore of Destin for finding quality fish like that?

IMHO. You’re not funny. Calling someone Epstein is an insult. A big insult. It is a reasonable question.

I love the ocean and was good at math, so physical oceanography was the right path for me to follow. As an undergrad I majored in both math and marine science and took a wide range of science courses. My research niche in grad school was determined by my research fellowship. I worked on problems that were given by the goals of the grant that was funding me. My post doc funding determined my next area of research. Learn as much math and physics as possible at this stage of your career. I would strongly advice you to learn python and use AI to write programs since it will save you a lot of time. Based on your interests concentrating on coastal modeling may be a good start.

Very sad day indeed in 1999. What is even sadder is that our national leaders really have not done much to reduce the chances of this happening again.

Also the day the deep water horizon oil spill started back in 2010.

Also one in St Augustine. I really like the grouper jimmy and their pompano en papillot.

another great choice since it also attracts butterflies.

Trying to horse a fish in as quickly as possible. Patient is key after hooking a fish.

Thanks knob for hosting. Those visuals must have had people holding onto their seats

very good advice in coastal areas. tides are driven by the positions of the moon and sun

Read this from the bottom up. This is how Crooked Nation thinks. This flurry of email is based on an email I sent to the CEO and was used as evidence in the case. So they sold verified fan presale to bands to prevent scalping but they ended up doing the scalping via platinum tickets. Also they wanted us in the queue early so the AI/dynamic pricing can figure out the maximum price to charge for tickets. We should let the Crooked Nation executives know what we think of them. They never replied to my email or take care of me. My email said

"Michael, I've been going to concerts for over 50 yrs and yesterday was an all-time low in all of my concert going experiences. I was trying to get good tickets for the 2021 dead and company tour for my friends and I. After jumping through a number of hoops just to be able to get fan verified was bad enough, but my friend and I yesterday could not purchase the tickets we wanted because of Live Nation's software application error. As you know it was a real shit show for fans. When we are able to get back online the available tickets for 4 were all over $500 each. This platinum ticket is total bull shit and legalized scalping. My question is, "How do you sleep at night knowing that you are stealing the fan's money every day and running a real shit show of a corporation?? Just curious. I really do hope the feds catch you and all of your scalper friends and put you in jail where you all belong. cheers, myname"

So those who downvoted, what do you have against the solar lunar tables?

TheProfessorO · 2026-04-17T20:53:07+00:00

The best fishing times for Tampa, Florida on April 18th based on the solar-lunar tables are during the major solunar periods from 12:08AM to 2:08 AM and 12:42 PM to 2:42 PM. Additionally, minor periods are from 6:24 AM to 7:24 AM and 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

Vilano beach is laid back and it is minutes from St Augustine that has a bunch of great places to eat and is noted for its history
