This seems to happen every year or so. The danger is with the high power chippers that can chew up six inch branches or more. Every so often you hear of workers getting careless and throwing a branch in, somehow getting hooked on it, and then getting sucked in. It's all over in a second or two. Even though it's quick...not exactly the way I'd like to go.

Just a blog, an anonymous source... it doesn't really amount to a hill of beans.

However, the speculation is that the source is Drew Barrymore or Devon Odessa talking about a child actress called Heather O'Rourke on a show called Rocky Road.

This still doesn't amount to much but 4chan are busy trying to join the dots, connecting children who appeared on the show with various producers and directors. This is a rich hunting ground with associations as big as Stephen Spielberg.
It is only going to take one or two girls to name names, and the guilt by association is going to spread far and wide.

Haha... this kind of thing always makes my laugh heartily. This "art" reminds my of the "art" created by the woman who dribbled paint out of her vag onto paper. I really love watching the crowd standing around and taking pictures. They are so arty-fartsy. They look amazed and thoughtful, but once in a while you see someone smile.

I was hoping there would be a display with a fountain but all they made was a big tank out of plexi. Pretty boring. Now... a golden shower... that would have been impressive (and smelly!)

One question was "Hi Bill. If the Sun is hot, why is space cold?", which 10th grade science students could easily answer. He obviously didn't know and tried to make a joke.

[.quote="Bill Nye"]There is a fantastic amount of space in space. I mean it's not all that cold, is it? It's 3 Kelvins. Toasty.[.quote]

Complete nonsense...and"Kelvins"?. He doesn't even know the basic terminology. I'll remember the next time I hear him talk about global warming that he doesn't even have the most preliminary understanding of the fundamentals of thermal physics.[./quote]
What's wrong with saying "3 Kelvins"? That would be the correct way to state the approximate temperature of space (although "2.7 Kelvins" would be a bit more accurate).

Should be either 'Three degrees absolute', or 'Three Kelvin'.

I think you are 50 years behind the times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin#Usage_conventions
No more "degrees absolute", and Kelvin in its plural form when more than one.

Wow, learn something new every day. There does seem to be some dispute over the matter, still, since CERN's guidelines say:

kelvin

Spell out on first mention; note the lower-case k (all SI units are lower case when spelled out); can be abbreviated to K in subsequent mentions. And note that it is always kelvin, even when plural (not kelvins or degrees kelvin).

Don't ever recall hearing or reading the pluralization 'Kelvins' before, including during a couple of advanced thermal physics courses as an undergrad. Nye's statement is still gibberish, I just thought that was the cherry on top. But if it's the official SI usage he definitely gets a pass on 'Kelvins', even if it's not commonly used. Personally, I'll be a reactionary and continue to use just Kelvin or degrees Kelvin.

This is what happens when you fill school libraries with Enid Blyton's The Famous Five. All the 'Georginas' demand to be called 'George'.
