I sought respite from the summer heat at the agricultural supply store. Short title: Fan Boy

A middle-aged man bends backward in the imagined blast of air from a human-sized fan.

The colander trick was perfect for watching the #eclipse with the neighbors!

My wife has a genius for #gardening in limited space!

A plastic tray on tall legs is filled with dirt. Tall flowers reach for the sky, and the blooms sample a wide palette of colors. An ordinary Netherlands patio surrounds the display, with grey bricks constituting the floor.

I am glad that one-year-olds Bart and Daisy can share a loveseat after a game of tackle just minutes before. #Caturday

A blue loveseat has mint-colored pillows at each end. Siblings Bart and Daisy are white cats with black and gray patches. Daisy is a classic loaf, but Bart is manspreading.

How else should one pass a hot solstice afternoon? #caturday

Two year-old sibling cats nap. Daisy sleeps on the cushioned back of a disassembled office chair, while Bart dozes on a papoose atop a wooden cat house.

Bart the #Kitten believes summer should be warmer.

A year-old kitten is curled up tightly for his nap on the blue couch. His tail seems clasped between his front paws.

Fathers and sons can work together without anyone shouting, "GET OUT OF MY LIGHT!"

Two bespectacled gentlemen work to replace the leg of a bench. They are half-hugging.

When three or more Tabb men are gathered, no box of discount #donuts is safe!

My wife captured this gloriously silly image of me at the Museum of #Archaeology in Heraklion on #Crete.

Dave stand with arched back in Minoan prayer position below three ginormous bronze axe heads. The axes are almost 4000 years old.

This morning, Bart the #kitten was delighted to discover a bee had come in through the window. #caturday

A small white and gray cat prepares to paw-strike a large bee. He is on a Dutch window sill.

I tested my new apparatus for filming lectures at home. The electronics worked fine, but the kittens took filming as the perfect opportunity to swing from the curtains by their claws! *Canon HF G40 camcorder *LumeWorks Luna Pro Mini Beamer #Academicchatter

Two tripods support a video camcorder and a full-HD projector. A little folding table holds a laptop. Not pictured: two furry kittens, full of vim and vigor

I don't think Bart the #Kitten is ready for me to change to the next episode.

A not-quite-year-old kitten is parked on my ankles, covered by a blue fuzzy blanket.

The #kittens feel drowsy now because they were wrestling on a certain scientist's belly in the middle of the night.

Two kittens with white fur mixed with grey patches look with half-lidded eyes at the camera. Why does the scientist feel he has a right to sit in such a comfy nap chair?

Why are #proteomics PTM searches so much worse when we allow for three different masses for amino acids? If we consider only phosphorylation or unchanged for three modifiable sites in a peptide, we have 2 to the 3=8 possible decorations of that peptide to […] [Original post on mastodon.africa]
