“We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: they don’t want the truth to be exposed. The simple fact is this election is far from over. Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor. In Pennsylvania, for example, our legal observers were not permitted meaningful access to watch the counting process.  Legal votes decide who is president, not the news media.

“Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated. The American People are entitled to an honest election: that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots. This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our election. It remains shocking that the Biden campaign refuses to agree with this basic principle and wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent, manufactured, or cast by ineligible or deceased voters. Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room – and then fight in court to block their access.  

“So what is Biden hiding? I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands.”

I think we are missing something....

It's Friday after Election Day... and we STILL do not know who is President Elect!!!

I'm wondering if SCOTUS will end up deciding this election like they did with Bush v. Gore?

This part was really interesting:

THE HISTORY OF THE FLOWER OF LIFE 

The Flower of Life is a fascinating and ancient symbol. It has been found to hold significance in multiple cultures all around the world as the Flower of Life symbol is seen in ancient manuscripts temples, synagogues, and art. However, it was only dubbed as the 'Flower of Life' quite recently in the 1990s.  

The oldest known depictions of the Flower of Life were found in the Temple of Osiris in Egypt and date back to at least 6 000 years ago, and recent research has concluded that they could not have been made earlier than 535 BC. These depictions of the symbol are fascinating because they were not carved into the rock, but rather burned or drawn onto the granite with red ochre with great precision. Some believe that the symbol could have been used to represent the Eye of Ra.  

Leonardo da Vinci was known to have studied the Flower of Life pattern and derived the five platonic solids, as well as the Golden Ratio of Phi, from the symbol.

Leonardo was into everything it appears. LOL

I'm sure there must be some sort of drug behind this music. I assume it's Russian.

Genial! 

I think with this post I was just trying to justify my terrible decision to procure a .org domain.

I should have gone with .com in retrospect.

Oh well. Live and learn.

In case you're wondering ... I switched it back to "normal" after a while since it was really a terrible idea.

US logs nearly 90,000 new coronavirus cases Thursday, 1 new case per second

https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/10/us-logs-nearly-90000-new-coronavirus-cases-thursday-1-new-case-per-second/

Peak in new cases will be followed by new peaks in hospitalizations and deaths.

Since 1981 AIDS has killed 35 million people globally.

Since March of 2020 Covid has killed more than 1.3 Million people globally.

Let this numbers sink in. And we are not even close to finding a cure or find way to distribute the vaccine.

There is a MASSIVE difference between 7.0 (as article headline says) and 6.7 or 6.5 reported in various places. Like a 6.7 is almost half the power of a 7.0. A base 10 log scale means that each integer is 10x more than the previous one. Reporters are super lazy about accuracy with this and it matters. A 6.7 could shake some buildings and cause some damage where a 7.0 would cause wide spread collapse of the same buildings.

"Everyone has been trying to leave the city as tremors have continued for the past 3 hours with magnitudes up to 5.0.

They've closed highways as traffic has been gridlocked--not sure what theyre thinking with closing highways.

12 dead and 438 injured in izmir and 17 buildings destroyed as of now

In Turkey they're reporting 6.6 but its actually 7.0. Not sure of that logic either."

Main areas of destruction: Bornova and Bayrakli

I’m wondering if a wiki post that is editable would work for you?

From the service bulletin:

Quote

 

In rare instances, certain components on Model 3 vehicles built at the Fremont Factory before May 21, 2019 might be damaged when driving through standing water on a road or highway with poor drainage or pooling water.

Looks like only this only applies to Model 3's produced before May 21, 2019.

If symptoms are present and the vehicle is eligible, replace the rear fascia diffuser with one that has a covered opening for a tow hitch (with improved wade performance) [...]

So basically if you have the hitch access cutout on the rear understand panel (shown here), then you already have the new improved panel and this service bulletin doesn't apply.

The headline written that way makes it sound like the US is doing the closing. It’s not their choice! Should say Canada and Mexico keep their US borders closed.
