I was pleasantly surprised to find ’s debut “Praying With Anger” today on the @internetarchive https://archive.org/details/Praying_with_Anger_1992 I don’t know what made me think of this movie today. It had been years since I searched online for it. One glorious summer while living in a high rise as a poor student in Chicago, the cable guy must have accidentally unlocked all the channels and I remember watching this.

@MsMerope Loving it here in Fairfield too. :) Good for keeping those hills looking green a little longer. I am not a fan of heat, lol.

@MsMerope Sorry you have bad allergies. :(. I have managed to escape them thus far this year. I’m sure my luck will run out. I bought some travel size benadryl yesterday just in case.

I have never watched a live pursuit standoff before today. But this one is in the neighborhood. Incredible to see live footage of a drone parked on hood of car to monitor suspect, another circling overhead. Suspect has gas mask. There has got to he immense pressure on LE to resolve this.

Well at least from time to time a view of the lovely green hills is shown.

Fairfield police have asked

to stop streaming the tactical positions of their officers during the standoff on I-80. KCRA is rebroadcasting a live feed from

Update: KCRA is ignoring requests by
@FairfieldPolice, producer tells helicopter pilot to show end of pursuit & traffic backup during 4 PM newscast, according to radio traffic we're picking up. Solano NewsNet

UPDATE: Police and CHP have numerous patrol vehicles and at least one armored vehicle on the scene. Appears someone is using a drone to look into the car where a potentially-armed driver is engaged in a standoff.
UPDATE: Fairfield police are moving their tactical radio traffic to an encrypted channel, the first time we've heard a Solano County law enforcement agency make use of an encrypted radio feed.

Further updates here: https://www.forth.news/threads/6635707751a7e748e016fc69. Hope it resolves OK. Traffic is a mess in city streets locally. I imagine the effect of it being closed for over an hour now will have far reaching effects into neighboring counties. Bad time for any natural disasters.

ai6yr, to H5N1

If conjunctivitis is going to be the hallmark of people with H5N1, maybe we have a hope if it becomes a pandemic. (humans do a lot better avoiding people who are visibly sick, as we evolved to detect things like that much better). https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2405371

deewani,
@deewani@mastodon.social avatar

@ai6yr I am wondering if this was from fomites or from aerosolized virus. Glasses will be a good idea either way. Many with Covid still present with conjunctivitis. My guess is this results from LOTS of aerosolized virus, or in this case possibly milk splashes and/or transfer via unclean hands.

deewani,
@deewani@mastodon.social avatar

@ai6yr Yes exactly! That is what I had read and why CDC recommending eye protection. It is so interesting that the highest concentrations are in udders.

@ai6yr Also would be interesting to find out symptoms of any not in direct contact with dairy itself, but with dairy workers. Wonder if that has happened and the mechanism of infection..

This would be a great deal for someone with need to build a garden bed, but the timeframes this person have in their post ("must be gone tomorrow", ie today) are RIDICULOUS (unless you live next door). Have you ever moved that much weight before?

@ai6yr I once loaded and hauled 2 pickup beds full of lovely medium to large sized garden landscaping stones by myself after reading a similar ad in 100° weather. Ah to be young again..
