The Trump trial prosecution team is heads above the defense team on all fronts. In this case - knowing what your opponent's next move is going to be.
"By eliciting a detailed account of Michael Cohen’s feelings of betrayal here, prosecutors seem to be anticipating the defense’s plan on cross-examination to paint him as an embittered ex-employee with a grudge against Trump. They would rather get the story out themselves now to lessen its sting." - Alan Feuer, NYT

"It's remarkable that Trump currently has senior elected officials, including a possible future vice presidential nominee [Senator J.D. Vance, an Ohio Republican], sitting in this courtroom listening to a recording of the former president, as a candidate, talking with his lawyer about paying for material from The National Enquirer. It underscores how completely Trump has had the party in his grip since those moments in September 2016 when this tape was made." - Maggie Haberman, NYT

I’m sitting at our dining table this morning and I hear scratching at the sliding glass door. My dog, Jack, is snoring in his crate next to me. I look and a wild bunny is sitting on their hind legs pawing at my door! What is going on? #Michigan #rabbit #Nature

Wild bunny sitting on my patio, peering through my sliding glass door waiting to be let in!

What is anyone paying for a 14oz can of roast beef hash (not corned beef)?
I just paid $3.75 for ONE can.
The kid likes to have it periodically for breakfast with eggs, etc., and twist my arm I'll eat it too, but YIKES it's expensive.

I've learned enough since last October that I can revisit my project of having Raleigh's trees act as tour guides for surrounding areas.

@researchbuzz I JUST came across this yesterday.
The developer of phanpy.social has created this amazing map... he took an existing database of every tree in Singapore and mashed it into this cool map.
https://exploretrees.sg/
You can filter by type, girth, age, and family. Pretty astonishing. Give it a look, especially if you are a map lover.
He blogs about how he did it here: https://cheeaun.com/blog/2019/07/next-level-visualizations-exploretrees-sg/

@jhpot Nice write-up. My son purchased the Remarkable 2 for college this past fall and really likes it. Using it primarily for note taking and homework in his math classes. I've tried it once, but now that he is home for the summer, I'm going to play around with it some more.

@wcbdata @design_law
Exactly what I was thinking as we have one at our shop. They use 2 fans (like floor drying fans) that keep the structure inflated and allow for air flow. Ours is big enough you could drive a car into it.

@wcbdata @design_law
It was the first time I had seen it up. But yes, floor space, containment of fumes/spray so other work can be done, and you can monitor progress from the outside with the windows.

Tea break this morning involved a spot of plinking and strumming on my Ohana O'Nino sopranissimo. I've settled on CDAF tuning for this one, which sounds good and has also improved the intonation (always a problem with fretted instruments of this size). Pretty happy with it.

NeadReport,

@BigJackBrass I guess I never noticed how much the strings are spaced apart across the strumming area.

@BigJackBrass Either way, I'd continually be dropping my Alex Van Halen signature guitar pick in the sound hole.
