Re: OT: DEVASTATING WEATHER

We are OK, although the basement is flooded in our rental house, a few miles away. Widespread flooding in our area (Central NJ), however, and a village along the Raritan River, about 3-4 miles away, was evacuated. Lots of fire and ambulance sirens this morning. Many flooded streets; cars

Re: OT: DEVASTATING WEATHER

Philadelphia was relatively spared yesterday. I watched the weather radar frequently, and we had only moderate rain while areas to the east and west of us got torrents. We’re feeling the effects of the torrents to the west of us today, though. The Schuylkill River runs through the city and the

Re: OT: DEVASTATING WEATHER

OK here - in  our immediate area.. all dry again though it poured allnight - all the noisy work that was being done outside my building over the last few months is 95% done and it resulted in good drainage.. but many areas of NYC were hit hard - subway service shut down some stations stairs

PESO: Cocky Elephant Bull

I spent a couple of days sorting out a friend's K100D. Took some test shots at my favourite haunt, Sable Dam in the Kruger Park, only 15km from home. This young Elephant Bull, an Ascari for an older bull, harrassed all approaching vehicles with mock charges & loud trumpeting. Don't be fooled

Re: PESO: Cocky Elephant Bull

So, what is an "Ascari for an older bull"? Google turns up "Ascari Cars Ltd" named after Alberto Ascari, but your guy don't look like he's quite streamlined enough for Formula 1 or Le Mans. On 9/2/2021 10:06:04, Alan C wrote: I spent a couple of days sorting out a friend's K100D. Took some

So far Raleigh has been spared the worst of it. The latest one passed north of us, with possible thunderstorms predicted for yesterday afternoon, but all that materialized was some light rain last night. On 9/2/2021 07:38:46, Alan C wrote: Having seen footage of the devastating weather on the

OT A rant and an offer...

My 10 year old R2000 printer finally gave up the ghost and I'm unable to get the heads clean enough to make a decent print. Timing wasn't so bad, as I've been lusting after a P700 and Epson finally offered a rebate that made the cost more bearable. B did their job...the printer was ordered on

Re: OT A rant and an offer...

I don't need the ink, I'm using a Canon, (insert boom joke here), but I had a similar experience a few years ago with a package sent by USPS.  I watched as my package left Tennessee, was sorted in Atlanta, shipped to New York, got to Connecticut, and then for some reason was returned to

Re: PESO: Cocky Elephant Bull

True. However, there were also Eritrians called "Ascaris" attached to the Italian forces in East Africa during WW2 . My late father fought against them. The Italians were eventually driven out  the SA forces advanced into Egypt. Thanks for looking. Alan C On 02-Sep-21 09:38 PM, Bob Pdml
