Reminds me a little of the Pronger incident where he took a puck to the heart and collapsed. Yeah, it reminded me of a high school lacrosse game I was at where a player took a shot to the chest and went into arrest. Fortunately CPR brought him back. Scary stuff.

Maybe that changes in 10 days as we get closer to peak Winter. the positive is that I'm not spending a ton of time looking at models. wake me up when a good threat is showing within 5 days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addressing some of the "whining" and such on some of the other threads. I think we just need a return to the moderation we had a few years ago. Right now there's a bunch of discussion going on in the Obs/Discussion thread that should be in banter. The "panic" can be in banter too. I can remember seeing stuff moved in the past, perhaps that's all that's needed to get the Obs/Discussion thread more focused again. The "whining" used to be done in banter. Now banter seems to be treated as an off-topic thread, when it doesn't have to be. Look in Obs/Discussion now, there's a post about a boulder falling on the highway, and discussion about Hamlin there as well. Just my two cents. I fully acknowledge that it's easier said than done, and moderation can be a pain since it's volunteer based... Lol, saw that. I was like cool, but ok? Happens all the time.

Not a coincidence. Thankfully it sounds like he is stable. You know what I think is pretty true and my comment has absolutely zero to do with The Damar Hamlin tragedy . Is that if people are intelligent and not emotionally tied to some political agenda or concerned what others They are friends with think about Opinions that aren’t popular ..then they realized the main problem that has only gotten worse (especially when the stakes are high regarding impact of an event ) is no real sources of information can be trusted . You can’t trust the mainstream , you can’t trust experts who often need to toe some line to stay employable (meaning they can’t really comment openly about what often is the crux of an issue due to offending folks and they want to stay neutral and not cause themselves trouble regarding their standing ) , and you certainly can not trust the alternative media that tries to pray on those who realize the MSM is often politically correct intellectual prostitutes . The alternative media are not some truth seekers they are in it for money like everyone else when people just like believing something . When you simply follow the money , you follow the research , you contemplate the ramifications , you follow the politics and ways the media tries to get folks to not consider things based on your dislike of a person and not data or not experts who funded certain research being put in charge of investigations . You realize if you can stomach it , that you can’t trust much when the issue is very serious . You can believe what you want for peace of mind or due to your dislike of MSM or alternative media or this party or that ..but you just shouldn’t trust most information when the stakes are high and global politics / local politics are involved and that makes many uncomfortable because I Think many search for peace of mind or to confirm their own bias . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a shame to see so many good long recording stations stop. That's possible, especially for the first 3 sites. The Farmington observer, Dennis Pike, took over the responsibility in 1966 and is/was well into his 80s, so I wonder if he became unable to continue and nobody picked up the torch. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me a little of the Pronger incident where he took a puck to the heart and collapsed. Many years ago - early '60s - a kid about 10 y.o. in our small community was hit in the chest by a softball bat that slipped from the batter's hands during school recess. He was knocked to the ground, got up and said he'd go to the nurse but only went a few yards before collapsing. The teacher ran to him and saw blood coming from the mouth, and the boy passed in a couple minutes, long before first responders could arrive. Autopsy revealed that the heart was in that part of the cardiac cycle when a sharp blow could cause rupture to heart or aorta. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

512high Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Oh, what I was trying to say, I'm sure you have seen these at ski areas they use a lot for grooming but mostly to move man made snow around etc.( also ski mobile trails etc.) Safety device is what I am trying to figure out, too much snow didn't engage what I assume parking brake, frozen but still maybe getting an indicator on dash it was applied on? Some other sites said he loves snow equipment and has a lot of pieces of removal equipment, but yes, what I would give for that snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I believe the NFL announced that the game will not be made up this week . The best course of actions and the course of least resistance is probably to hope it doesn’t need to be played for playoff seeding after they allow this next week (last week to play out ) Now I’m Going to talk about football since it’s end Of year and plenty of teams are excited for playoffs .Buffalo’s next game Will be against the patriots . I don’t have any playoff hopes for patriots so I mean buffalo will now play their starters and we will likely be sent home packing ..like we really deserve (based on our play ) .

STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Natural gas prices in Europe have fell to pre invasion levels now . Example #5995 Of how real world pain and suffering due to dramatic changes that can occur in very small financial markets when speculators and investors enter these small markets in a very large way to take advantage of an external cause that disrupts supply / demand at a much smaller level (compared To the % movement in price of commodity ) Nearly Every article written in the financial press fails to touch on the core issue to these tremendous fluctuations in commodity prices , be it lumber , oil futures , Natty gas . Occasionally you will hear a seasoned investors carefully spell out the dynamics so that the lay investor understands why the price of a commodity can move 150% when the supply / demand disruption is In the single digits . Commodities have Tiny markets caps (by size $ ) in comparison to stocks and bonds Indexes are much more prone to disruption . When the situation favors a clear change in the supply / demand dynamics tons of money tends to flow into them (or out ) And this large change in total $ invested into the asset class is responsible for the size of the move , not the actual amount of supply/ demand imbalance . You just need a sure thing that will clearly push that supply / demand of a commodity in a sure way and money piles in and levers up, then when there is enough news that reverses this dynamic or it’s no longer a sure thing (milder weather than normal ) money that knows there is a bubble flows out fast . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The perspectives are often framed for reasons to have folks form the desired opinions , the appropriate beliefs ..and it’s been taught to not respectfully disagree but look down on folks when there is not agreement . The more emotion that can be driven into a story the more potential for clicks and in- fighting , attacks and in the end the less critical thought. Maybe governments have to manipulate people to keep People fighting amongst each other As it’s better then focusing on the toxicity of the entire system ** I would argue that even things that are started with good intentions , once they enter the toxic realm of politics and corporate gree$, they become so infested with shiat that the end product is financialized, politicized and a shell of its original intention ** So much pure garbage is spewed and counted on being lapt up by a viewer who has selected their channel of choice to confirm their own Beliefs / based usually on emotional allegiance On a hot button emotional issue that said channel or outlet pretends to stand on , when in reality the executives and leaders stand on a perch to sustain their profits , power, career aspirations and share holder equity and it is seems reasonable people will rather maintain beliefs that give them a sense of purpose and peace of mind then question if the stances are just created to sustain allegiance , position for influence and power and selected for those reasons, not for the good intentions that are marketed to Capture the hearts of Decent folks Empathy.
