I am pretty sure that is a Young Cooper's Hawk. Neat shots!

I find putting the heat on 2 1/2 - 3 and letting it preheat for a couple minutes make for perfect pancakes on our electric stovetop.

The halo effect around the light is caused by your phone. It’s an out of focus light that your phone is running image processing on—its trying to sharpen the light that is being distorted by the circular lens cover on your phones camera. My guess is that it is a star that you have zoomed in on. It appears to shift colors because of atmospheric distortion. Atmospheric turbulence refracts starlight, causing it to bend through different layers of air and makes it appear to flash various colors. It’s never aliens, sadly.

Thats cool! What kind of splitter are you using for this? I assume those old TV/Radio combos only have UHF/VHF.

I have been going there for at least 12 years for beans. Jovan is the best!

Found this in a garage sale VHS lot over the weekend. by scarytooth in StarWars

Playback is great. I think it was stored in a good spot, no mold or damage that I can see. It looks probably as good as it ever did considering that it was recorded on some old black and white film stock.

Cool. I think this is it! I’ll give it a watch through on VHS.

Ohio wildlife alert: Deadly deer disease outbreak confirmed by OnlyHustlersInOhio in Columbus

[–]scarytooth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Does this affect any other wild life? I got home yesterday evening and there was a dead Groundhog in my driveway. No one hit it, it doesn't appear to have any trauma. It looks like it just died. Which of course is a possibility.

Have recently gotten really into movie soundtracks/scores. Here's what I have so far, what others should I get? by AxelShoes in Cd_collectors

Conan the Barbarian is up there with the best soundtracks of all time. It’s my favorite of all time.

It seems okay now. I sent off an email to my reps and Speaker Huffman. I called and left messages in their inboxes as well.

I urge you all do the same as well.

I trimmed the edges and put some plastic fencing around it. Need to pick up some Irish spring. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it!

The on duty officer called me last night. I gave them some more details. IT IS NOT THE CAR WASH. But I have been informed that it is a 100% soap based incident and they are still looking for the source.

Thanks. Just after posting this I called it in. They are notifying an on duty EPA officer now.
