  1. Done digitizing the house. Well, apart from roof and attic which aren't very interesting right now.

    Now to plan a bunch of stuff so we can decide if our ideas will work and what to do about doors, windows, etc.

  3. Schrecklich, so eine halbwegs pünktliche Fahrt. #OurHouse

  4. "Eventual consistency" ist wenn auf meinem ausgedruckten Fahrkarten-PDF "Zugbindung aufgehoben" steht, in der Kontrollapp der Zugb aber nicht.

    "Wo steht das?"
    - "Hier."
    "Ach so. Was war mit dem?"
    - "Verspätung."
    "Alles klar." #OurHouse

  5. Eins muss man DB Regio S-H lassen: der SEV für den RE 8/RE 80 von Ahrensfelde nach Hamburg ist sehr gut organisiert, es kamen sechs oder sieben Busse kurz hintereinander. #OurHouse

  7. Ich hab mal eine Finnlines-Abfahrt erwischt mit etwas höherwertigem Angebot. Leider auch mit anderem Publikum... oben läuft "Boom boom boom boom" und andere akustische Verbrechen. #OurHouse

  8. Und, wer schießt schon wieder quer? Die Grünen!!!11?!1

    Dem Passat ist irgendwie die Puste ausgegangen, also wird es mal wieder Zeit, es den LKW-Fahrern gleich zu tun und das hektische Treiben in Travemünde von oben aus zu beobachten! #OurHouse

  10. Our House, a tragic series of mistakes

    Our House stars Tuppence Middleton and Martin Compston, which ought to give it a pretty decent vibe, but even these two could not save this slow and muddled series. […]

  11. Can anyone stop Trump’s teardown of the East Wing? – The Washington Post

    Can anyone stop Trump’s teardown of the East Wing?

    Many preservationists fear the answer is no. A pro-Trump review board is expected to approve the president’s planned 90,000-square-foot ballroom, too.

    President Donald Trump’s plan to build a White House ballroom has underscored an oft-overlooked aspect of presidential power: No one could stop the president from tearing down much of the East Wing this week.

    The next stage of the project is also likely to proceed withfew restraints: The key panel slated to review the president’s construction plans is now stocked with Trump allies ready to approve them.

    Photos of construction teams knocking down portions of the East Wing, first revealed by The Washington Post on Monday, have rattled city residents, historians and politicians, many of whom contended that Trump was wrongly tearing apart “The People’s House” to build his long-desired ballroom.

    “It’s not his house. It’s your house. And he’s destroying it,” Hillary Clinton, who battled Trump for the presidency in 2016, wrote on social media.

    Others contend that Trump’s shifting projections and promises — such as pledging in July that the ballroom wouldn’t “interfere” with the White House, and increasing his estimate of cost and how many people will fit in the building — illustrate the need for more transparency. Conservative commentator Byron York said Trump “needs to tell the public now what he is doing with the East Wing of the White House. And then tell the public why he didn’t tell them before he started doing it.”

    Rebecca Miller, executive director of the D.C. Preservation League, a nonprofit that advocates for protecting historic sites in Washington, said dozens of concerned citizens from the city and around the country have called and emailed her to express outrage.

    Miller said she has had to explain that the White House, because of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, is exempt from the required reviews that other federal agencies must undergo when seeking to alter government property.

    “Our hands are tied,” Miller said, adding that normally government officials discuss major projects with preservationists — but not this time. “It’s very frustrating that there’s nothing that the organization can do from a legal or advocacy perspective.”

    The National Trust for Historic Preservation, a nonprofit created by Congress to help preserve historic buildings, urged the administration “to pause demolition until plans for the proposed ballroom go through the legally required public review processes,” including a pair of commissions that have reviewed past White House construction.

    Polls have shown many Americans are concerned. YouGov polling conducted Tuesday found that 53 percent opposed demolishing part of the East Wing, 23 percent supported it and the remainder were unsure. YouGov also found that 23 percent believed the ballroom will have a positive effect on the White House, 35 percent believed it will have a negative effect, and the remainder were neutral or unsure.

    But the project is moving forward. White House officials said Tuesday to expect a full-scale teardown of the East Wing, defending it as a “modernization” of the building. They also touted past renovations, circulating a fact sheet that argued Trump was continuing a “proud presidential legacy” of changing the White House grounds — although the swimming pool, tennis pavilion and other past projects they highlighted pale next to the president’s planned 90,000-square-foot ballroom, which would be nearly twice the footprint of the 55,000-square-foot main sectionof the White House next door. Trump said this week that the ballroom will seat nearly 1,000 people, up from an earlier estimate of about 650.

    Bien sûr c’est con de poster une deuxième fois les mêmes chansons pour le même mot Mastobada… Oui, mais pour certaines on a quand même envie. Je me demande si @cathy n’avait pas déjà posté She’s Leaving Home l’autre fois…

    Our house is a very, very, very fine house

    Now everything is easy ‘cause of you
    And our

  13. Daldinia spp, probably childiae ( see Michael Kuo), commonly known as carbon balls or St Alfred's cakes, because Alfred specialized in burning them. These were growing on small branches blown into our yard by a storm.

  15. About to Go Home

    It is silly. I love to travel. I enjoy staying in hotels. I love the city of Boston. Why then did spending three nights in a hotel in Boston start to bum me out? It was nice. It was fun. It was a goofy little excursion away from the norm.

    Why then, with all the things that I enjoyed about the entire situation, does the idea of being able to go home after work tonight fill me up with happiness? My wife and I will be home together. We’ll eat dinner together at home. We’ll sack out on the couch after dinner and watch TV in our living room at home. We’ll sleep in our own bed tonight. We’ll wake up at home tomorrow and be back on our regular, normal daily routine.

    I love to travel. I love staying in hotels. I love being in the city of Boston. I guess I just love being at home with Jen more. When you look at it that way, it’s not even a little bit surprising.

    Also, there are cats at home when there were no cats in the hotel. That’s gotta count for something too, right?

  18. Hairy curtain crust mushroom (Stereum hirsutum) sometimes called false turkey tail is a small mushroom with colorful caps, no stipe and a smooth poreless undercap. Here I have a photo of a clump of wet caps showing the color striation, and a photo of one just growing out of the dead branch, showing its coarse hairs.

  20. Now is the frost season in the PNW. Frosty frost still is beautiful.

    A sad anecdote in our community garden news: yesterday volunteers were going to turn over the compost. They couldn't even get a pitchfork into the frozen masses in the bins! The soil is frozen too, so turning anything over is doomed. BUT...if the compost was fermenting, should it have frozen? I know the piles haven't been turned since I started my gardens there, so that's 18 months, way too long.
