Around 6 a.m. on Christmas Eve, and after taking turns running the engine and napping, Withey’s truck ran out of gas and the trio was forced to find proper shelter.
“Off to the left, I could see there was a school about 600, 700 feet away from us. I knew the power would be on, there would be heat in there and I was guaranteeing there would be food in there,” Withey told the station.
After some quick thinking, Withey identified others around him who were also stranded and decided to break into the school.
Withey and his crew, a total of 25, including seven senior citizens, made their way into Pine Hill Primary Center and took shelter — respectfully setting up only what was needed. They set up their main area in the cafeteria, helping themselves only to the food they needed and nothing in the fully stocked freezer, according to police.

I found it astonishing that he had to break in.
One would think with the approaching storm, the Gooferment — at all levels — would order all public buildings to be unlocked. Same for the Churches. I’m sure every school has a Principal and a Custodian. Someone should be authorized to take emergency action.
Argh!

GUNS: Where there is a will, there is a way.

Thai man arrested for modifying BB guns to fire live ammo

Like I said, creative.
Yossakorn would allegedly buy BB guns for about as much as 8,000 baht, or around $230, and sell them for 15,000 baht, or about $430.
Not too shabby of a profit, really.
Understand, Thailand has all that gun control. If gun control works as advertised, how could anyone turn a BB gun into a fully-functional firearm?
And I’m trying to figure out what video he watched on YouTube, especially since the site is known to be hell on anyone showing American audiences how to build guns, even though that’s perfectly legal here. So I’m curious just what he was watching and when did he watch it.

Put this in the “Criminals Are Not Law Abiding” and people have God-given inalienable right of self-defense.
Feel sorry for this poor guy trying to make a few bucks empowering others.
I too am interested in what YouTube video he watched.

HEALTH: New Biomarker Test for Alzheimer’s
Tuesday, January 3, 2023New Biomarker Test Can Detect Alzheimer’s Neurodegeneration in Blood
12/27/2022
*** begin quote ***
PITTSBURGH — A group of neuroscientists led by a University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine researcher developed a test to detect a novel marker of Alzheimer’s disease neurodegeneration in a blood sample. A study on their results was published today in Brain.

Now there is a medical trial I could volunteer for. That has to be a disease that needs to be “cured”. Finding a test is step 1.
How little we really know is demonstrated almost daily.

ECONOMICS: Maybe I have to start looking at price per ounce?

What’s Your Line In The Sand? The $25 Burger?
by Tyler Durden
Thursday, Dec 22, 2022 – 09:22 AM
- Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog,
- The gag reflex kicks in at some point and we walk away because it is no longer worth the price.
*** begin quote ***
Everyone has a line in the sand when it comes to inflated prices they refuse to pay. For one Walmart shopper I observed, it was a carton of eggs for close to $10. She announced her line in the sand verbally, with great force and sincerity.
What’s your line in the sand, the point at which you simply refuse to pay the asking price? Is it the $25 burger? Or is it the $50 for two burritos and two beverages?
Each person’s line in the sand reflects their income, wealth, budget, social status and value system–what’s important to them. For some higher income folks, it might be the ridiculous “resort fee” that’s tacked onto the already overpriced resort room, hotel tax, excise tax, parking fees and the extra-special charge for Internet service.
For others, it might be the outrageous estimate for repairing a system failure in a nearly-new vehicle that is (surprise!) no longer covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Hundreds of dollars for what?
*** end quote ***
Hmmm, now that’s an interesting pot question.
For me, it has to be the $9 “craft beer”. I switched at my local bar from draft to bottles when the price was 7$ for a draft and 3$ for a bottle. Maybe I have to start looking at price per ounce? Or, milliliter!
Dining out has become a $100 proposition. Isn’t that far beyond the average working stiff? It certainly is getting there for the senior citizens and people with rug rats.
Sad.
And it’s all caused by the politicians and bureaucrats “printing” money.
Where does the merry-go-round stop?
Soon I think.

TECHNOLOGY: Important New Year’s breakthru in important foodstuff by Iran
Sunday, January 1, 2023Some day soon we might be making popcorn with infrared poppers (3 minute read)
Scientists from Iran have figured out how to make popcorn with infrared cooking. Popcorn pops when it is heated above 180 degrees Celsius due to trapped water within the kernel’s endosperm. When it is heated, the pressure from the superheated steam ruptures the kernel, and the starch within is released in a foam. The Iranian team found that heating up kernels using 700 W IR power at a distance of 10 cm produced the highest yield and highest rated popcorn.

Hey I’d prefer they work on this rather than atomic bombs!
