Unpacked our Nativity scene yesterday. Removed all the Jews, Arabs and foreigners. Ended up with a jackass and a handful of sheep.

Am I the only one who finds these images, that seem to be all over LinkedIn, off-putting and downright creepy? I don't know the person pictured, and I'm not even going to try to do an alt text.

The northernmost reaches of the U.S. will gain the most daylight come March. Forecasting company AccuWeather says some places, such as Seattle, could get as many as 100 extra minutes.

When Jimmy Carter was president, I was in DC working for the US Department of Engery, doing low-level stuff like processing the paperwork for the contracts for these. That's my contribution, such as it was.
