Jurassic Raccoon
https://youtube.com/shorts/D7w4AXKSZUg?si=_Pa-bGZVvGTP_raE
My father used to say that you should never feed a wild animal. I didn't understand at first, but the problem is that many animals can have rabies and not show symptoms. This includes raccoons.
Wild animals are not pets.
Migratory birds only fly south when the food runs out. I noticed that people would feed ducks who then stuck around till winter. This can't be good for the birds.
Best wishes,
John Coffey

Dropping a Rock Down an Abandoned Coal Mine Shaft
3 weeks ago
Here's some math for you
The equation for the distance traveled of a free falling object is:
h = v_0t + 1/2(gt^2)
h equals height in meters;
v_0t equals initial velocity in meters per second;
g equals acceleration due to gravity in meters per second squared;
t equals time in seconds.
The initial velocity is 0 since the rock was being held at a standstill by the man. Simplifying the equation we get:
h = 1/2(gt^2)
I watched the video several times and came up with an approximate free fall time of 7.35 seconds. We know that acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. Plugging in the numbers we get:
h = 1/2(9.8 x 7.35^2)
Solving for h we come up with:
h = 264.71 meters
The rock fell approximately 264.71 meters, or about 868.47 feet.
Now that we have a number for distance, we can now see how much the speed of sound affects the equation.
Speed of sound is 343 meters per second
264.71 / 343 = 0.77175
The sound of the rock hitting the bottom was delayed by about 0.77 seconds, which means we need to subtract that time from the original 7.35 seconds.
7.35 - 0.77 = 6.58 seconds of free fall.
Now we have a new free fall time, and can solve for h again with the new number:
h = 1/2(gt^2)
h = 1/2(9.8 x 6.58^2)
h = 212.15
So the rock actually fell about 212.15 meters, or 696.03 feet.
Air resistance would play a role as well, so it may be more like 200 meters or 650 feet, but Ima stop there.

Canadian Tire | Jim Gaffigan
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/RcCnKLy3nwM
I worked from September 1991 to January 1993 for a new business called Auto Source which was a subdivision of Canadian Tire.
"The second time, during the early 1990s, Canadian Tire decided to try to open a specialized auto parts chain called Auto Source that tried to have more than 25,000 different parts on the shelf in each store, more than its competitors. The first Auto Source was opened in Indianapolis in 1991.[25] Unlike the previous attempt, the Auto Source concept was built from scratch.[26] During the next three years, Canadian Tire had opened two Auto Source stores each in Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Dayton, Columbus and Louisville for a total of ten stores before abruptly closing the money-losing chain in 1995.[27][28][29] Some of the stores, were sold to Pep Boys.[30]
Although the Auto Source lost nearly CA$60 million during its four years of existence, a scaled down version was used in Canada under the PartSource brand."

Carlsen: Haven’t Studied Chess Recently; It Showed.
Paul Morphy was considerably better than his contemporaries. So was Bobby Fischer. Neither benefited from computers, databases, or modern opening theory. For this reason, it is harder to compare the skill level of their play with the level of the top current players.
Gary Kasparov was only a bit better than his contemporaries but remained World Champion for 15 years.
Magnus Carlsen is the closest thing to a perfect human chess player. He knows more about chess than anyone ever. He definitely would lose to a computer, but that would be like a math contest against a scientific calculator, or a boxing match with a brick wall. Computers really are perfect, or at least close enough that we can't tell the difference, whereas all humans make mistakes, including Magnus.
As good as Magnus is, he is only a bit better than his contemporaries. There are a number of players who are not far behind.
Bobby Fischer reportedly had an IQ of 180. He was incredibly brilliant. I have heard that Magnus Carlsen has an IQ of 190. He is also incredibly brilliant. I don't know how one quantifies the difference between 180 and 190, especially half a century apart.
Magnus Carlsen once admitted that he had to drink less to play chess well. I have seen him play speed chess online while apparently drunk but he still won because he can play intuitively almost perfect chess. I've seen Russian Grandmasters also win while drunk. So, therefore, I've been wondering if Magnus Carsen is an alcoholic.
In this interview, he looks more disheveled than usual. It is also a bit odd that he decided not to participate in the World Chess Championship, giving up the World Chess Champion title that he has held for ten years.

Wild Beehive in a Washing Machine (Short Version)
https://youtube.com/shorts/ame3yfxCdxY?feature=share
Every one of this woman's videos are exactly the same. She is not afraid to handle bees, and she takes pride in relocating colonies.
I've had three bees stings in my life, starting as a small child. If I tried to handle bees the way she does, I would probably get multiple stings.
Perhaps she uses a smoker while she is handling the bees. Honey bees become docile in the presence of smoke. I am guessing that their instinct is to take shelter in the hive.
Best wishes,
John Coffey

"The match is best of 14 games; a score of at least 7½ would win the world championship. If the score is equal after 14 games, tiebreak games with faster time controls will be played:[36]
A match consisting of 4 rapid games with 25 minutes per side and a 10-second increment starting with move 1 will be played. If a player scores 2½ points or more, he would win the championship.
If the score is equal after the rapid portion, a mini-match of two blitz games will be played, with a time control of 5 minutes per side and a 3-second increment starting with move 1. If a player scores 1½ points or more, he would win the championship. If the blitz mini-match is tied, another mini-match with the same conditions will be played to decide the winner of the championship.
If both blitz mini-matches are tied, a single game with a time control of 3 minutes per side and a 2-second increment starting with move 1 will be played, and the winner would win the championship. A drawing of lots shall decide which player plays with the white pieces. If this game is drawn, another blitz game with reversed colours will be played with the same time control, and the winner would win the championship. This process will be repeated until either player wins a game.

One has to wonder if Magnus Carlsen would have made the same mistakes. I doubt it. He tends to be cool under pressure and more consistent overall.
If the match ends in a tie, there is a playoff day this Sunday using rapid time controls. The games are played at 3 PM Kazakhstan time, which is 5 AM Indiana time. I could see myself getting up early to watch the playoff.
